Back to school!

Jaxon started school this week. He is in 3 year-old pre-school at Cosgriff. This year he was so excited for school to start. He went to bed right at 8pm and was up by 7am dressed and ready for me to take him to school. He was so excited to wear the new his school clothes and shoes. This year he goes Monday through Thursday.
1st day of school 2010


Any one else see a theme here?
1st day of school last year.

I was surprised that he was letting me take so many pictures of him.

4 Months Old!!!

I can’t believe that my baby is 4 months old!! He is getting SO big. Here are his stats:

Height: 27.5 inches He is off the chart for height. His Dr. said that he’s as tall as an average 8 ½ month old!

Weight: 15.5 pounds He’s in the 70th percentile

Head: 16.9 inches also in the 70th percentile

His doctor was very impressed with how alert and social he is. She kept referring to him as a flirt, which he most definitely is. He is talking up a storm and he loves the sound his own voice. Jeter is in love with his big brother. He is constantly watching Jaxon and loves when Jaxon talks to him. His eyes just light up and he gets a huge grin on his face when Jaxon talks to him. It is so cute and I know that they are going to be best friends!


The doctor gave us the go ahead to start rice cereal as well as fruits and veggies. Jaxon insisted on being the first one to feed his brother. He did such a good job and Jeter loved the cereal, we couldn't shovel it in fast enough.


He loves to stick his tongue out.

He loves playing with his feet.


He loves to pull his blanket up around his face.

Happy 4 months Jeter!
We love you!

Summers winding down

Where has the summer gone?!?! As you can tell from the lack of posts we have been SO busy. I’ve been trying to decide if I should stop blogging all together or if I should to do one huge post to get caught up. I decided to do one HUGE post. Here is a list of some of the fun things that we have been doing this summer…..

1) Soto/Valdez/Peter’s California Vacation 2010.
This included: Disneyland, Dodger/ Yankee game and Laguna Beach.

2) We have been doing our fair share of bowling at Fat Cat’s
3) We love Sunday Funday’s at Andrews’s pool.
4) We spent a weekend at Stein Erickson in Deer Valley
5) We spent a day a Lagoon, where the fun is!
6) Jaxon has had some play dates with friends from school.
7) We have been watching Jeter grow up before are very eyes! He is already 4 months old! He goes for his 4-month check up on Friday I will post his stats then.

Our attempt at tummy time.

Fast asleep.
He is such a good baby, he pretty much sleeps through the night!

He loves bath time.

Despite the look on his face, he loves to watch TV with his big brother.

The only time this kid isn't smiling is when he's asleep!

Jaxon loves riding his bike to the bakery by our house.

Cheese!!!

Jaxon is growing up so fast! He starts 3yr preschool on the 16th. He is so excited and will be going 4 days a week this year. Ahh, before I know it he will be starting college!

We have had an awesome summer, I have been horrible at taking pictures and will try to get better.

Hopefully more posts to come!

Schools out for the summer!!

Jaxon finished his 1st year of preschool. He had such a great year! He learned so much and has become so much more social. He had great teachers and he can't wait until next year.

Jaxon and Miss Jane




Last day of school party.




Jaxon has had a great start to his summer. He just finished a class at the zoo where he learned about baby animals and animals with paws and claws. He loves the zoo.





He has also been to a couple of Bee's baseball games. He LOVES baseball and was able to run the bases after the games.




We have also been swimming at Uncle Andrew's pool. We have a family vacation planned for the end of the month, we are heading to California! We are going to a Dodger/Yankee baseball game, Disneyland, the horse races and the beach. We can't wait and the best part of the whole trip is that my entire family will be together, my brother Matt is even coming from New York.

Two Months Old

I can't believe that my baby is 2 months old!!! Time is flying by, I wish I could slow it down just a tad. Jeter is changing everyday. He is such a good baby, he is eating and sleeping really well. He is smiling and starting to get his own personality. I think he's going to be laid back and calm like his dad. He went in for his 2 month check up today and here are his stats:



Height: 25 inches, off the chart ( he's as tall as a 4 1/2 month old)!!
Weight: 13.4 lbs, 90th percentile

Head: 50 percentile


Needless to say he's a BIG healthy boy!!!


Here he is enjoying the Bee's game. I hope he loves baseball as much as his brother, especially with a name like Jeter!

Thinking about smiling.


Tummy time.

He's not a huge fan, but it's getting a little better.


All tuckered out after tummy time.



He loves playing under his play center.

Jeter's Baptism

This past Sunday we had Jeter baptized. It was such a special day and so nice to spend it with our family and friends.
Jeter wore the same suit that Jaxon did.
Jaxon was so excited to wear his "church clothes".

Deacon Flime preformed the baptism. There were many laughs because he is a little bit CRAZY!!

Jeter was so good through the thing. This was the only time he was awake.

Jason and I chose my sister, Danielle, to be the Godmother and his brother, Jimmy, to be the Godfather. Jeter is very lucky to have them both in his life.



Thank you to everyone that was able to share in this special day with our family.
