we had so much fun here! Jaxon was in heaven, seriously! as soon as we set him down he headed straight for that water, with no fear! He kept trying to crawl in. I'm sure he thinks its just a huge bath tub with fishies and cold water. He is seriously gonna have to live in a life jacket this summer! He got a kick out of splashing us, he couldn't get enough of kicking and slapping his chubby hands and feet in the chilly water. Brock thought it was pretty sweet to throw rocks and sticks out as far as he could; him and daddy {of course} had to see who could throw something the furthest and make the biggest splash! And for those of you know ryan, well you know that he couldn't let his 3 year old think that he could throw further than him! I think Ry had fun being one of the little boys! He loved lying on the blanket and watching jax crab crawl all over. {he hates the way the grass feels on his legs so he won't let them touch} we got tired of fighting jax and the water so we would take him to the top of the hill and then it would give us a little chill time til he got down towards the edge! {i know, i know, but he loved it} I was just happy to get out of the house and play in some water on a warm day! It was so much fun to have ry with us. He doesn't get to play very often! He has been working so hard lately, pretty much non stop. He gets home around 7:30 or 8 and then we've been outside working on our yard with the tractor or the trencher! the poor guy doesn't get any down time!!! We love him and are so grateful for everything he does for us!
This picture is one of my most favorite of all time!!! This was the first time i could hold my baby jaxon! He had just undergone a huge surgery at the precious age of 3 days old!! It is the most helpless feeling to watch your baby fight for his life and you can't even hold him to comfort him and whisper' everything will be alright'! I think he was almost 2 weeks old in this picture and this was the first time i could hold him! so all of my mommy training was in full swing within this 45 minute time i had to love him! i was singing all the songs i could think of and telling him all the stories of his awesome big brother brock. This moment gave me so much hope! because when i could actually feel his breathe on my face and the weight of him in my arms i knew he was fighting hard to come home with us!
