Future Bears Fan..!

So travis is a huge Chicago Bears fan and every time they play travis has to go all out. He wears his bears jersey and hat and gets so into the games. Last christmas travis's mom bought jaxton a bears jersey onsie to match travis's. He was too tiny to wear it last year so this year so far every game he gets jaxton into his jersey and they both sit and cheer in their bears stuff. Its so cute..! Im sure jaxton will follow in daddy's footsteps and be a bears fan too cuz he gets so excited and starts dancing and yelling in excitment when he see's travis so excited. He loves just sitting and watching the football games with daddy. We hope the bears do good this year and go all the way...GO BEARS...! :)

Little update :)

Hi everyone, so its been a few days since i've last posted but i've been way busy this last week. Me and travis are in the process of buying a house finally..! I have been running back and forth with paper work and meetings and such but even though its stressful we are so so excited to be home owners..! The date is set to close on the 1st of Oct and we will be moving in on the 3rd. We are very happy to have this opportunity and feel very grateful..! Let me tell you a little about the house, its a 3 bedroom 1 bathroom house on 1.33 acres. Here are a few pictures of what it looks like before we bought it with the previous owners stuff. I will post more pictures in Oct of what it looks like with our stuff inside, and we get to keep the appliances..! Wish us luck and thanks to everyone for your help in making this happen..!

Pictures..!

Here are the pictures I promised. There are 2 pictures of jaxton walking outside with his toy. He just loves walking with that toy expecially outside. There is also a picture of the ducks that live in the creek right next to our apartment building. There are like 15 of them out there every day. He likes to push his toy towards them and try to run them over lol. Then the last 3 are the crafts I've done this week. The one is a mold of his hand print. The other one is 6 blocks with the letters of his name that I made. The last one is the magnet board travis made for me, I just painted it blue with black around the outside trim and put the words on there. I plan on putting 2 little black hooks on the bottom to hang up hats or coats. I think they turned out really cute and I cant wait to have a house where I can decorate his room.
