Valentines Day and fun in the Snow

Jaxon and some friends from church went to a nearby nursing home to pass out Valentines.  We had a great time.  The people's faces lit up when the kids gave them Valentine cards that they had made.


After seeing how much the people enjoyed getting cards, we decided to make them for a few friends and all the grandparents and great grandparents. Thanks to pinterest I think they turned out pretty cute.







Starting on Wednesday February 12, our area got hit with a bunch of snow causing Brian to have a short week at school.  Jaxon and I were so excited to have Brian home for 3 days so we could play in the snow.  I think we got around 8inches.  Jaxon absolutely loved the snow.  We didn't have a chance to buy snowpants or boots so we improvised.  I layered him up and tied grocery bags around his shoes and it worked out just fine.  We even walked over to our friends house and Jaxon and Andrew went sledding together.  Usually I have to chase Jaxon all around the yard, but thanks to the snow he didn't move quite as fast and Brian and I made our snowmen family while Jaxon entertained himself.  Our driveway and some side roads in our neighborhood had great sledding hills.  Jaxon loved being pulled in the sled and going fast down the hills with us.  We also enjoyed eating some snow cream.


















New words

Love you- "Wuv you"

Thank you- "tink you"

Broccoli- "Brock B"

My mother in law taught him to say "Jaxon is very special" (although you have to help him say it one word at a time)

He recognizes who Mommy and daddy are and calls us by name.  He says Jaxon when I point to him

He will say "Help"-and then hold on to one of our fingers, he will lead us around and show us what he needs help with

TV- He will point to the TV when he wants it turned on
