I love this cute little man so much. Everyday is so much fun with him. Jax is 8 months old now and doing so much. One of his favorite toys is still Patyon food container, other favorites include any box that he can get his hands on and the patio door.
Yesterday we spent at least a good 20 minutes hanging out at the door watching the snow fall and the cold wind blow. Jax just had a blast giving the door lots and lots of kisses.
Brent and I decided since Jaxon's hair has filled in pretty nicely that we meaning I would let it grow out for a while to see what it will look like. I have been giving him a haircut every month for the last 6 months, and every time I took at least a good half inch of hair off. Let me just say that I didn't think it would be this hard for me, but everyday I see all the little hairs that I have to brush behind his ears and it drives me crazy, also it is getting a little too long on top to try and style it. At least I thought so, but Jax and Daddy think that it is fun to do it for church.
Jaxon is really doing great, this last month he has started to clap his hands, which is so adorable. He will clap and then look at you with the biggest smile just waiting for your approval. He also loves to give mom big slobbery kisses on the cheeks. He loves to get into trouble too, he will sneak off down the hallway to try and pull books off the bookshelf, or try and sneak into the bathroom or office if I forget to close the doors. As I mentioned before he really likes boxes especially big ones that he can push and walk with all over the house. This last week I also decided to start trying to get him to sleep through the night. I was getting up with him about once a night still but I decided to let him calm himself back to sleep. So far it has worked pretty well, two of the five nights he has slept straight through the night without waking up. The other three nights he has waken up once each night and will cry for 5-30 minutes and then is asleep for the rest of the night. It is going a lot better than I thought it was going to, and I am handling it much better than I expected. I hate hearing Jax cry, I always feel so bad so the first night when he cried for 30 min. it was a little difficult for me but it is getting better. Brent continues to work really hard in school and Jaxon and I are just having fun hanging out at home together.

What a cute little man you have! I remember when we wanted Madi to sleep through the night. It took 3 nights of her crying and then she slept through the night! So nice when you get a good night sleep!
