3 Month Check-up!

Greyson had his 3 month check-up today. I can't believe its been three months since he was born! Time really flies by when you have a baby, he'll be on his mission before I know it! : ( Ok I may be overreacting a little but still. Now for the stats, drum roll please. . . .
Greyson weighs 14lbs 2oz (he's gained a little over 2lbs in the past month) and he's 24 inches long (the same as last month). So its official Greyson is a fatty! He's getting fatter but not longer! He's definitely getting cuter though! Here's a recent pic from my phone, I REALLY need to download some pics from the camera.

I think he's looking more and more like his daddy, but he still has my brown hair!

Happy Birthday Robin!!!

Sunday was a busy day for the Saxons, not only was it Greyson's blessing but it was also Robin's birthday! So I made cupcakes for lunch and later in the evening we went to John and Gail's for homemade ice cream, yum! Hope you had a great birthday Aunt Robin, we love you!!!

Greyson's Blessing

This past Sunday, November 2, we blessed Greyson at our ward in Denham. My mom and aunt came up for the blessing which was great, especially since they've never seen a baby blessing before. It felt great to be sitting in church with my family surrounding me while Greyson was blessed. There were also two other babies that were blessed with Greyson, which was really neat. Our ward is growing so much! It's great to have so many of our friends with babies close in age, I'm excited to watch them all grow up together :)

The whole crew! Joe, Robin, Joanne, myself with Greyson, Aaron, Jeanie Gail with Kalli and John with Kaiden.

The Deschamps and the Saxons. Joe, Robin with Kaiden, Aaron, Myself with Grey, Gail, and John with Kalli.

Joe, John, and Chris all participated in the blessing with Aaron, thanks again guys!

I think someone forgot to tell Joe and John that this wasn't a mug shot! Smile a little boys! lol

The triathlon of baby blessings!

Myself with Greyson, Jeni with Sophia and Heather with Keegan. What a Sunday!

Meet Jerry Giraffe

Robin and I brought the kiddos to the Baton Rouge Zoo and had a lot of fun! We saw all the usual animals elephants, monkeys, rhinos and so on but the best part was the giraffe exhibit. They have a huge cement trench around the gated area but this one giraffe (who I so lovingly named Jerry) was standing in the trench right along the gate and leaning his loooong neck over and eating out of our hands!

Robin brought some grapes and apples for the kids to snack on so we tried to feed them to Jerry and he wasn't to fond of the grapes but he definitely liked the apples (we figured since it was fruit it would be safe to feed it to Jerry, but if you heard about any giraffes getting sick at the BR Zoo it wasn't our fault! If Jerry did get sick it was probably because of the guy next to us who tried to feed him potato chips!) Jerry definitely made our zoo trip worthwhile, too bad Greyson was asleep the whole time! Check out Robin's blog for some video!

Robin and Kaiden by the buffalo exibit...I think.

Uncle J & Lil G

Greyson finally got to meet his Uncle Justin (my older brother) last week! Justin was so excited to see him and even had a nickname for Grey, Lil G. It was cute to see my big ol' brother holding a little baby-Justin is like 6"4' maybe taller. So here's a pick of Uncle J and Lil G! I love you boys!

Poor neglected Abby...

So its true what they say about your pets after having a baby, they definitely do get neglected at times. I'll be the first to admit that Abby (our 1 year old beagle) is spoiled, well she's spoiled by me atleast Aaron is another story, but now that Greyson is here I find myself forgetting to feed her or give her some attention. It's gotten a lot better now that Grey is almost 2 months old, but those first couple of weeks she was really neglected. I've been trying to make it up to her so here's a post to our puppy whose exact birthday is unknown but it's around this time of year so HAPPY BIRTHDAY ABBY! By the way, she has been extremely great with Greyson, very curious but very sweet : ) Thank goodness!!

The other day I was trying to do laundry so I did like I always do and gathered all the dirty clothes and dumped them in the hallway by the laundry room, right when I was about to separate them by colors and throw a load into the washer Greyson woke up from his nap, so by the time I went back to where I left off this is what I found...

At first I didn't see her then she lifted her head, I guess it seemed like a comfy place to take a nap, and needless to say she did not want to move when I started separating the clothes.

My 2 Favorite Guys : )

I am so in love with my hubby! Ok I won't get all mushy, that'll be the worst of it I promise. It's just so great to see Aaron with Greyson. He's such a good dad already and I can't wait to see the two of them running around and playing together like boys do : ) I never realized how much more I would love Aaron when we became parents, it's like you meet this whole new side of your husband-the fatherly side. Ok well I promised I wouldn't get all mushy so here are some of my favorite pics of my two favorite guys:
