Bubbie Helping After Bath

When Jemma was born, Jaxon decided he wanted to be called Bubbie so that is who I am referring to. I'm so used to it now that I call him that even when Jemma isn't around sometimes.

Jaxon wants to help out with Jemma as much as he can. He's always telling me, "I need to hold her because I haven't yet today." He also does great changing diapers (with supervision). Lately he likes to help after bath. He does it all - put on the diaper, lotion, put on her pajamas, and comb her hair (even though we debate about how to comb her hair - difference of artistic opinion.) Jemma is so patient with Jaxon while he's trying to get it all together on her because she is quite the wiggle worm on the go.

Here's some pics I got one night.




She got away for a minute.












Combing her hair down. (Mommy likes it up and curly.)










Ta Da - clean baby!




After mommy fixed her hair.

Jaxon the Cat

Blake DJ'd at the Haskell County Fair one day so we went over for a little bit even though it was HOT! When we went into one of the buildings to cool off Jaxon found the face paint. It didn't last very long before it was smudged but I managed to get a few pics.

Swim Lessons

Jaxon took swimming lesson in July. He did awesome! He was able to swim some last year without his jacket but we always had it and made him wear it if we weren't in there with him but now he doesn't need it. It took a little convincing he could still swim in the deep end without his jacket also but now he'll go anywhere without it, even off the diving board!

Jemma and the saucer

Here are some pics of Jemma in the saucer that we had when Jaxon was a baby. It is such a life saver and really helped her with hand eye coordination. I don't think we got it for Jaxon until he was 6 months old but put Jemma in it at 2 or 3 months. Wish we would have had it sooner for Jax now!

These are from July. She looks so little in it here.











Biting down which is what she does to all her toys now. Bite and drool is all I do!




Here are some pics of Jaxon in the same saucer. You can see that they definitely look related.

Jemma and her buddy Kace

Here are some pics with Jemma and Kace. Kace is exactly 2 weeks older than Jemma. His mom and I work together at the elementary school. We even took walks together after the babies were born to try and take off those pregnancy pounds (still working on those).
We got together this summer in July when they were about 3 to 4 months. They grow so quickly!
Jemma and Kace go to daycare together also. I don't think they pay too much attention to each other though. They can sleep through the other one crying which is good. I have seen them playing side by side and accidentally holding hands which is cute. They also get their arms going and sometimes grab hair so we'll see how much they like each other as they get older.
