Our sweet boy

Jaxon was 2 1/2 years old when Kaelyn was born.  He continues to make us laugh with the things that he says or does.  He is growing like crazy.  He loves to ride in the shopping carts at the store or he will help me push Kaelyn's stroller.  He is very independent and will redo something if I do it for him (ie picking him up to get out of the bed or putting him in the carseat).  He wears size 24 months-2T clothes and size 7 shoe.  He loves the Christmas lights.  He can be OCD on some things which I think he takes after me (making sure the drawers are closed in the kitchen or pushing his chair up to his table when he is finished)  He likes to help me clean and he makes sure his toys are put away if its naptime or bedtime.  That could be his way of stalling or he may really enjoy putting his toys away.  I find it hard to be upset with him when its time for bed and he wants to help clean up.  He still loves to play outside which has been hard to do since its been cold outside.  He locked himself in the pantry the other night and couldn't get out.  Brian video taped him.  Poor thing he said, "Daddy help me get out."  Its amazing how he is putting so many words together now.
He loves eating his meals at his little kid table.  We are having problems getting him to stay in his seat.  He loves to eat clementine oranges.  If we wants a snack after nap he will ask for oranges.  He loves yogurt with blueberries or oatmeal for breakfast.  He loves to watch mighty machines or anything involving trucks.  I even found monster truck youtube videos that he likes to watch.  We ordered several old movies involving cars for him to watch on amazon.  He has enjoyed watching the Herbie movies and chitty chitty bang bang.  We haven't really tried potty training yet but hope to when Brian is home for Christmas.  He does go potty before bath.  He will tell me if he needs his diaper changed when he has done a poopy.  He goes to bed between 8-9.  Daddy gets to do bath and bedtime which he loves.  They read a bible story, pray, and they sing a song.  Jaxon knows his routine.  He loves to sing the B-I-B-L-E and this little light of mine.  He knows alot of the words and can sing by himself.  I will listen to him sing on his monitor or he will sometimes talk to himself after waking up.  He also loves to sing in the car.  He is waking up most mornings around 7-7:30.  If he goes to bed later the night before sometimes he will sleep in later.  I was afraid after Kaelyn was born that his nap schedule would change.  I am so thankful he is a good napper.  He tends to nap 3-4 hours after lunch.  He loves to play with his trucks, tractors, trains and cars. He also loves to paint and color. Sometimes we even find him sitting in his chair reading to himself. We love our sweet boy.
