Weekend Fun

Yep, I'm doing a weekend post on Wednesday! At least I'm consistent around here- even if it is consistently late.

We'd decided not to dress Jaxon up for Halloween this year for a few different reasons, the main one being that we didn't see much point. Another one being that I honestly don't give a hoot about Halloween and never have.

 But then we received an invitation to a Halloween themed birthday party and the kids were asked to dress up. And I am SO glad that happened. Because then this happened.

Is that not one of the funniest costumes you've ever seen? It's just so completely random, it cracks me up. I mean really, a tree frog? I love it.

 {"Mom. I look like an idiot."}



{Lordy, I hope all these people aren't looking at me in this thing."}

{"They ARE looking at me, aren't they??"}

{"Now who are YOU lookin' at?"}



{"Oh all right. Maybe it's not so bad!"}

My bestie and her little fam were at the party too. I always love seeing her baby Ali. I can't believe she's four weeks already! Pretty little thing.

Jax and Daddy had a blast in the bouncy!



He loved it!

Sunday was a super busy day. We "drove to town" an hour away to take our family pictures at 8:00. When we were done with those (which I'll hopefully be able to share on here soon, once our photographer is finished editing them), we stopped for breakfast and went to church. After church, we did a Craigslist meet-up to buy a back-up stroller for my parents' house and just when JD thought we were heading home, I told him I really wanted to get pictures of Jaxon at a pumpkin patch this year. He was not too excited about it, but was a good sport and humored me. I even made him stop for some groceries on the way home and he still didn't complain-- too much :-)

{"Really with the pictures again?"}

{"Ok fine. Here's a little grin. You happy?"}

{"Uh, what is this warty old thing you have me sitting next to?"}

{"Lemme check out this one over here and see what it's all about."}

{"Ooooh. Kinda cool!"}

{"Ok, really. Are we done now?"}



We were pooped after that whirlwind weekend but we made so many fun memories together. JD and I just get more and more excited as we're able to do more things with Jaxon. The smallest things turn into the "funnest" adventures when you have a baby along for the ride!

We've entered a really busy few weeks so my posting will probably continue to be sporadic for now. I wish it didn't have to be that way and I really appreciate those of you who stick around and continue to read my ramblings!
