Paxton is 8…

… months old today.

I am continually blown away by how amazingly wonderful this little boy is.  He completes our family… he makes us even better than we could have ever known.

Pax is easy-going, cuddly, mostly happy, and easily MADE happy when upset.  His face lights up when Chance, Brian or I walk into the room.  His laugh is contagious.  Brian and I are praying that he will have an amazing impact on this world one day.  Knowing his personality now, I’m sure God will do GREAT things through him.

His current “statuses”:

  • His two bottom baby teeth are out and sharp as ever.
  • He’s crawling… FAST.
  • He can pull himself up to standing.
  • He can SOMETIMES get himself back down :)
  • He only sleeps 6 hours at night. Ugh!
  • He can feed himself little snacks.

Here’s a quick video of us just trying to record what he’s all about right now:

I love that he’s growing into his personality… but I wouldn’t mind if he’d stay a baby a bit longer too :)

Here are some recent photos of our sweet Paxton.

P.S.  Today is my sister, Renee, and my brother-in-law, Jason’s, wedding anniversary.  Happy first year.  I think your first years’ gift is paper.  If you print this up, this will be by gift to you.  Sorry… the economy, ya know. ;)

P.P.S.  Today would also have been Scott Resnick’s 40th birthday.  Happy Birthday, Skilly!  We still miss you.
