Some TLC..

Jaxon has officially been sick for the first time.....that seems so awkard to type being that we had a routine visit to the doctor with Kennedy every 2 weeks for a virus or ear infection. He became fussy last night and ended up running 102 temp, so we packed up to see Dr. Froelich today. She gave him some antibotics and hopefully he will be feeling better soon. We called MaMa to take care of him tomorrow to allow some more down time at home. He acted so pitiful with mommy, but mustered up some smiles and flirtation for the baby in the waiting room and the doctor.

Kennedy

We have loved every age thus far..you hear people say I loved three or wait for terrible two's! Each change has not always been so easy, but nothing too hard that I would say we couldn't wait for it to pass. However, three has been so much fun. Kennedy is a firecracker--she doesn't miss a thing. She is at the age of loving to play pretend and has these pretty lengthy conversations that can keep you smiling for days! Kennedy's personality continues to blossom and we can't get enough of her!

Notice the purple gloves--my therapy gloves! They seemed to pop up all weekend long!

Sunday she entertained us in the garage since it was raining. Dancing to Christmas music with the gloves on her feet!!! Don't ask she had them on before we could even blink!

What a great Daddy....We are blessed to have such a wonderful man in our lives. Kennedy is at Jeremy's hip and follows him wherever he goes. Sunday she found her princess tent and asked Daddy to put it up in her room. He didn't even bat an eye....she is asleep in her pink tent in her room.

Jaxon

Jaxon is almost 7 months. He is so very sweet. He is on the go now and we need to start getting some boy toys. This weeknd he had a field day with Kennedy's toys.

Not the best picture..but he learned to stick out his tongue and does it constantly now..new found fun!

And where off.....Jaxon started crawling this weekend!!! With crawling he of course found access to sister's toys. I came into the living room to find Kennedy with little baggies putting up her toys and placing them into the basket you see below. She said "I am putting up my toys so brother can't get them!" A new world has begun for the both of them.....:)

Cool Kid

Check out that face! This was after we took away the magazine he was eating below! He does not to have things taken away...imagine that.

What fun! I want this house mommy! Really I just want to eat this paper again! I can see the resemblance here of Kennedy and Jaxon.

Just Pics...

Bath time with sister is lots of fun!
Thank you for my cool bath towels "Nan and Dad"

What is that face?

Jaxon is a thinker. This is his serious, check-you-out face.

Trip to Texas Children's Hospital

No worries a trip to TCH sounds scarier than what it really was. Kennedy was diagnosed with (urinary) vesicoureteral reflux last July which means that upon voiding some urine would back up to her ureters and possibly to her kidneys instead of making the normal exit. So...what this means is she had a UTI and because she had it around age of two they took some cultures and did a voiding cystourethogram. Last year we did it without a sedative and somehow I forgot I was pregnant with Jaxon and could not be with Kennedy during the procedure. This year Jeremy and I went together, Kennedy got a sedative to ease everything during the catheterization, and had a big ice cream to make it better afterwards. The nurse bragged on her until afterwards.....:) she said most kids are either really happy or tired from the sedative....Kennedy was outright mad and quite combative I might say. The poor parents walking in probably thought it might have been better to forget the sedative. She did return back to her normal sweet self after a nap home and ice cream. The test results were positive and her reflux is now gone----so no more daily antibotics for another year!!

This makes it all better

Looking a little drugged from the meds and about to loose that ice cream!

Easy Going Weekend

This was a low-key weekend for us and we took full advantage of it. Granny and PoPo came up Friday and kept Jaxon while Kennedy and I headed to Bear Homecoming. We had a big win 30-7! I tried to video Kennedy at the game, but it was unsuccessful...you would be amazed at how much she gets into it!

Hanging out Sunday at the house! Jaxon learned how to go from sitting to 4-point and back to sitting. He was funny to watch on the floor. I heard "Momma, get Jaxon" all weekend!

Kennedy loves holding Jaxon when he will let her!

It was a nice weekend! Low-key and lots of time at the house. Jeremy and I actually got to watch a movie Saturday once the kids got to bed. Kennedy was pretty proud too--she got to rent a movie which is like eating candy in our house. I can count on one hand the movies she has seen. Nonetheless, she snuggled up in her chair and you could tell she felt like such a "big girl".

Clean Bill of Health

Jaxon had his 6 month appointment today. He is 19 pounds 12 ounces and 27 1/4 inches long. He handled the shots okay. He does not take them as well as Kennedy did which I attribute to the "y" chromosome:). He is 75-90% in all growth areas....he almost 2 1/2 pounds heavier than Kennedy at this point and 3/4 inches shorter (sorry little man..got some of mommy's genes too). Everyone asks who he looks like. We have determined that he is own little being of course, but that he looks like mommy, the Wolter's side of the family, and PaPa says he sees a resemblance to Uncle Doug as a baby. Whoever he looks like, he is one handsome little boy in mommy and daddy's eyes!
