We had a nice visit with Brian's brother's inlaws. They couldn't wait to meet him.

So thankful to have an afternoon with my hubby. My mother in law came over to watch Jaxon. It was a little hard to leave my little man for the first time. I think I did better than I thought. We had a wonderful afternoon. We took a 10 miles bike ride and then went to the pool. It was nice to have a break and I don't think Jaxon knew we were gone.
look at the view behind us
I wish I did a better job of keeping up with old friends. Its hard when life happens and there are miles between us. So thankful for great roommates in college. It was great to be able to catch up with them and for them to come by to meet Jaxon.

Celebrating Great-Grandma's birthday at the Kane and Walker (aka K&W)
Jaxon trying out the bumbo. I don't think he's quite ready for it, but his neck is getting stronger.
We went to visit my parents for about a week and had a great time. We went to celebrate July 4th and my mom's birthday. They really haven't spent a whole lot of time with him except right after he was born. To get him ready for his new bed at my parents, we decided to try putting him in his crib a couple days before we left. At my parents' house Jaxon slept in their pack and play. He did just fine. I think he likes having room to spread out and kick his legs. We didn't bring alot of his things to my parents, mainly because we didn't have the room. You will understand why later. We bathed him in the bathtub instead of his baby bath tub. Mimmie had a colorful quilt that he enjoyed lying on. It seems that he's been enjoying lying on his blanket more than anything on his back or tummy.
On our way to my parents we decided to buy 2 kayaks from 2 people on Craigs list. Brian loves to kayak and wanted to get one for me so we could go together. I'll enjoy it as long as I don't roll the kayak or fall out. If you asked my parents or watched me growing up I wasn't too big on doing things outside (camping, hiking, kayaking, getting sweaty, and being around bugs). Brian has helped me to try new things. I think in a marriage you need to have fun and do things together even if it means doing things that your spouse enjoys and you may not. I've had fun trying new things. I went para sailing in Key West-where we got engaged, hiking, kayaking, vacationing in new places, cooking and trying new foods.
my very own kayak
