Alright alright alright....I absolutely suck at this whole blogging thing. So much has happened lately and in my head I make a mental note to write it down and tell the world about it but then I get home and I have to play with, feed, bathe, and put the baby to sleep. Blogging definitely takes a back seat. So, mom and Erin.....this blog is for y'all because I think you two are the only ones that actually read this thing.
Let's see, about 6-8 weeks have passed.
March 17th (St. Patrick's Day)
We took Jaxson on his first camping trip in March. We went up to Little Rock to see the rest of the Felder family. It was totally AWESOME!!! We rented an RV and attempted our luck at fishing and burned a fire for 3 days straight. The campfire was perfect but unfortunately the only thing that was caught during fishing was a tree that I snagged (but I didn't lose/break my pole this time so it was a step in the right direction). Jaxson did great. He really loves being outdoor. Below are some pictures from the weekend.

March 25th
Well, every working mother knows what I am about to type. I returned to work. Jaxson just turned 3 months old. I held it together for the most part. I didn't sleep the night before though. I checked Jaxson's school checklist about 40 times to make sure that he had everything he would need. I dressed him up in the cutest outfit ever. Brad and I took him in together. We met his teacher and kissed him about a hundred times and then passed him over and we said goodbye. My eyes watered over and then out in the parking lot I leaned into Brad's chest and cried. My heart broke. Somebody else would take care of my son during the day. I have never hated the speed limit so bad as the afternoon of his first day at school. I rushed to the day care, scooped him up, and sat in the rocker and just squeezed him and loved on him. And he did great. There were no tears on his part. Just the most beautiful smile and the recognition of my voice. The day care is wonderful and my thoughts are 100% at ease. He really enjoys his classmates and he is smiley every time I pick him up. It definitely makes me more comfortable about returning to work.
Jaxson on his first day of school - it's freakin' early Mom!!
I started a new job. So far I really like it. I am doing home health physical therapy and enjoying the flexibility of the schedule. I get to enjoy my precious time with Jaxson.
Jaxson turned 3 months old!!!! He is getting so big. I can't believe it! He weighed around 11 pounds at this point. He is beginning to fill out his little body!
April 10th
A giant bunny came to the day care on Thursday for "Hoppy Hour". Jaxson did great! He wasn't scared at all! He looked at it kind of weird but then again Jaxson has always been the inquisitive type.
