The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly

THE GOOD
My mom's family has been in town this last week! My moms sisters Nancy, and Lucy, and Lucy's 2 boys, Cesar and Vinny. We have stayed busy between taking them places and hanging out at home and in the pool! They left today and I am so sad! So is Jaxon, he looked for them all morning. He has loved having these 2 boys to play with! Some random pictures of our fun!
Brick Oven!!! My mom is in the pink, Nancy in the orange, Lucy in white, and Cesar in the back.

Crazy boys!! Cesar on the bottom, then Vinny, then Jaxon

Jaxon was determined to tackle Cesar into the pool!
Look at all these boys! 2 are mine, 2 are my cousins, and 2 are my cousin Dana's boys!

Dana and I!

Heading up to the Alpine Slide at Olympic Park

This happy little guy stayed at the bottom with my mom
Waiting in line for the slide! Cesar, Nancy, and Vinny

Cesar and his first Hawaiian shaved ice!



THE BAD
We have literally stayed up late every day, taken short naps, and been going and going all day long! That makes for one grumpy 3 year old! I thought terrible 2's were rough... they got nothin' on this 3 business!
And our littlest man, is no longer nursing. Totally breaks my heart. Today has been rough. He just isnt getting enough. I feed him for a half hour, and within 20 minutes he screams until he gets a bottle, and will drink the whole thing. It's killing me, so bottles he will have. :(

THE UGLY

My poor phone... which I LOVED! After the park, I needed to take Carson out of the sling, I sat my phone on the back of the trunk. Yeah, I forgot it was there, we drove off. And didn't realize until we got home! Joel drove around in the dark and found it in the middle of the road. Smashed. At least Joel was able to get all my pictures off of it! This is the last picture I took on my phone... Jaxon "fishing" in a fountain. :)

2 Months

Carson is 2 months old now. He sure is getting big! He is a whole pound bigger then Jaxon was at this age! And is a little bit longer! (10 lbs 2oz - 15th %,
He is VERY smiley... and coos and coos! We love it! Jaxon runs up to me multiple times a day saying " Mama... come see... Baby Carson is smiling!"
He sleeps like a champ! 11-7 every night. Not a peep till 6ish, takes a binky, and sleeps for another hour or so! It's heaven. Mama is happy about that. (Don't asky about Jaxons sleep schedule now... it's the opposite of heaven.)
He is getting better at holding his head up! Especially when he is fully awake. He loves examining faces, watching tv, and watching his brother play.
His hands are always moving when he is awake. When he gets excited, the flail everywhere, along with his legs!
Eyes have not decided on a color yet... most of the time they look brown, but every once and a while they look totally blue! Crazy! Decide already!
0-3 month clothes are getting too small. Especially the jammies. We are already moving up to 3-6!
Nursing.... oh nursing.... I'm not a huge fan. But I am giving it my best shot! And have been telling myself since I got pregnant I was going to nurse. Anyway, he does good at home. In public, we both hate it... dread it... avoid it! So we supplement with formula. And by nighttime, he will not calm down unless he gets a bottle right before bed. So that's what he gets. :)
Still hates the tub! Like screams until he gets out. We tried feet in the pool the other day, same thing!
He can almost roll over onto his stomach. He has done it a couple times, but it was probably a fluke.
Now that he is awake and alert more often, we are starting to feel like we are getting to know him too! SOOO fun!
