Hello family and friends!!
We wanted to give an update even though not too much to report!! The holidays were fantastic!! Paxton caught on pretty quick to the whole concept...so fun to watch. However, our house is covered with all his new toys. Paxton is very grateful and so are we. It's just a blessing to watch him smile and learn everyday!! He's learning new words every day. Some of his favorite words include: "uh-oh", "mommy", "daddy", "puppy", "Harlee". He loves his Harlee. In fact, they are napping together as we speak (write :) ). We are hopefully looking forward to some travel this year. Right now, we are looking forward to some play in the snow within the next week or two. In May, we are traveling to Seattle for a wedding and time with Mike's family. We haven't been back to Washington for a while so we are really looking forward to it! If all goes well maybe Hawaii this summer and a California Adventure later in the year...Sounds jammed pack but we're trying to set some goals ahead of time.
Mike and I are still very busy with work...But, luckily we now have our weekends off together. And no more night shift for me!! YAY!
As always we try to live a healthy lifestyle. We bought a new trailer for my bike and Paxton absolutely loves our bike rides. I can't say that Paxton's taste buds are staying as healthy as we'd like but he still has a great appetite! Mac N Cheese, grilled cheese, chicken nuggets, peanut butter and jelly, and yogurt are some of his staples. Pretty typical 18 month old diet!!
Our backyard has turned into a little playland. Thank you to our wonderful family for helping to fill the yard with fabulous toys for him! Paxton absolutely LOVES the outdoors. And even that, is an understatement! I think our child would sleep outside if we let him.
On Halloween we met our neighbors. They are all great! It is even more awesome that they all have small children who Paxton's loves to spend the afternoons playing with outside!!!
That's all for now!! Hoping to update with each of our travels...
Love to all!!
