The Train

Jaxon got this wild idea that he wanted to build a train. He said we could use wood and the wheels from his cars to make a train that everyone could ride in. I tried all morning to tell him that it was really hard to build stuff like that out of wood but he was relentless!! I don't know what he saw on t.v. that gave him the idea but he kept saying, "but they did it on t.v." I don't blame the kid, I was the same way- always wanting to build tree houses that looked like the Swiss Family Robinson's. So..I finally came up with this idea....I'm such a dream killer, I know.
It was actually pretty funny. Gabe got the whiplash effect a few times!

Deja Vu

Jaxon wearing the hat in the walker.... and Gabe wearing the hat in the walker.. I couldn't resist although Gabe is about 2 months older than Jaxon was in his picture-sometimes it's crazy how similar they are.

Jaxon's FIVE!!!

I can't believe my little guy is already 5 years old!! How time flys. I don't think there has ever been a kid so excited for their birthday as Jaxon was.
Squeezing Brooklyn he's so excited for what she just gave him. He got the thing that he wanted most, a.....Drum set!!! I know, what were we thinking!!

Brooklyn took a turn.

Here's my scary attempt to make a cake. We tried to incorporate everything that Jaxon loves: Boats, tractors, and four-wheelers (he really wanted a REAL 4-wheeler for his birthday after the drum set but we told him that he'd have to help pay for something like that).

On Saturday Jaxon had a swimming party with all of his cousins on both sides. He got MORE presents...
..and had fun swimming!!! What a great birthday!! Thanks everyone for all the gifts-whoa spoiled!!
