August 2010

August was just about going back to school. I think we spent a lot of time buying clothes for the kids, getting them registered at their new school .  I started a semester of school that included a stressful stress management class (which was shortly dropped) plus my computer crashed which meant we had to buy a new computer.

July 2010

Keeping it short and simple the big things that happened this month was that Axel was blessed and Novalee was baptized.  Jason blessed Axel and baptized Novalee and it was such a great thing to see. We did it all at once. It was a great day with help from great people. I wish I took more pictures but with the blessing and the baptism, it was busy. I wish I could put into words how wonderful it was and the feelings that we all felt that day.
Novalee also turned 9! Instead of a party she wanted money. So she got to go shopping with the money.

What?

Axel turned 1! I do have more recent pics of him but not on the computer! He is such a fun boy. He has been walking since 10 months. Which means he loves to get try to sneak outside every chance he can. I used to let him just look out the screen door and watch people outside but not he tries to walk outside which has started my love of using rubber bands to secure the lock even more. He doesn't say too many words yet but says uh oh and is starting to call for ma ma. He does like to yell if people are talking he tries to be a part of the conversation but just be louder. Its pretty funny to play with him and try to go louder then him. He loves to chase around the house. He still hasn't completely slept through the night but that is on my part that I have never really made him but he is a lot better then he used to be.  He wants to be a big boy but then wants me to cuddle with him. He loves to play with Daddy and sometimes just follows Jason around the house. How can you not love this boy?
