Pima Air and Space Museum in Tucson

We went on a little trip to Tucson on Saturday and went to the Air Museum. It was pretty cool but not quite worth the price. We did enjoy getting out and going somewhere "out of town" eventho we really wanted to go to San Diego. :) However, I don't really recommend this museum for kids, there were a few tantrums involved and we got all the looks you get from people without kids enjoying a "quiet" afternoon at a museum.

Maelie and Jaxon - he did awesome by the way
Kyla sitting on a plane - looking soooooooooo excited - HA!

Watch your head!!! - Maelie loved the hands on section and just wanted to play with the toys... they had little toys and stuff for kids while Jonas and I looked around at the planes.

We walked through the Air Force One that 2 of the presidents used (I can't remember who) pretty cool stuff!

So...

I was finally giving the floor a much needed sweep when I looked over to see Kyla feeding Jaxon waffles! aaaahhhh!!! Almost as bad (but not quite) as when I looked over last night during dinner and saw Kyla jump over Jaxon!!! This mother of 3 kids thing sure keeps you on your toes!

Jaxon's 1 month pix

Does anyone else think it's stressful when you go get your kids pix taken? They show you tons and tons of cute pix and you came with this coupon and you just want the one package and it's soooo hard to choose! Well, I only ordered a few of these poses and I am really wanting to order more. There are so many cute ones...

I got this pic (above) but not as a birth announcement

too bad I wasn't ready to be in the pictures :)
This above pic is the one I got for the package
I love this pic (above) and wish I ordered the package for it!




I got the above pic





Anyway, at least I have the smaller versions all saved to my computer and on my blog. Jaxon is such a cutie and we are so happy to have him in our family!

5 hours 45 minutes

(Jaxon's 1st sleep stretch longer than 4 hours last night) Sleep is a beautiful thing... now if we can just go to sleep at the beginning of his longer stretch instead of 2 hours into it!

M-a-e-l-i-e and random pix

I asked Maelie if she could write her name all by herself. She did it! - without looking at my version and without me telling her what was next - way to go Maelie!

This is her copying my version!

All Smiles




Jaxon has hit his 1 month mark! Yeah, it really feels good to have that first month behind us. He went to a checkup yesterday and got a shot - ooohhh he was mad! But when he got on that scale it sure surprised me! 11 lbs 14 oz! I was shocked he had grown so much - the doctor asked me if I would feed a few more babies... I said 1 was plenty! He has been making little smiles occasionally since he was born - but now we can make him smile!

Baby Shower

My sweet ward threw a combined baby shower for me and a friend in the ward who had a girl the day after me. It was awesome and really nice - they did a great job with way cute decorations and yummy food and a good turnout. Thanks so much for doing that for me - I got lots of great stuff - I feel so spoiled! The pic above is Jaxon with his cute diaper cake that my friend Kristi made!
Maelie even got some presents - she was pretty excited! The girls have been playing with all the tissue paper and the above cake, having birthday parties - it is so cute how they can have fun with the simplest things...

Oh, and I saw my good friend Emily Adamson last night and she has some exciting news... if you know her, ask her to tell you! I wish I had gotten a pic with her. CONGRATULATIONS EM!
