| Pax is a little upset here. It looks like he is working out really hard though doesn't it :)! |
- loves to eat but certainly has trouble with certain textures- we laugh as we watch him contort his face and spit food out (I realize this will only be funny for a short time)
- nursing 5-6 times a day

| Big brother LOVES to feed Paxton. |
Rowen, Rowen, Rowen, Rowen, and more Rowen!
Seriously, Pax adores his big brother. I am not surprised because Rowen is pretty entertaining. Pax is actually bored at home when Rowen isn't home. It is obvious that his mama alone is not cutting it. These two brothers are truly so sweet together. I can't wait to see this relationship grow over the next many years.

| This is just the beginning of the constant wrestling I'm sure. Oh boy! |

His jumper.
Paxton LOVES this thing. It is so funny because Rowen liked it ok but Pax really loves it. He jumps and jumps for quite a long time. I try to only use it when I am cooking to keep it interesting to him.

| jump, jump, jump! |
This is one baby thing I didn't use with Rowen that I wish I had. I think Rowen would have loved this. Paxton sure does. He can see where we are going, it gives me an extra 20 pounds while walking (good for burning those calories), and daddy doesn't mind wearing it. I love that I can set up the "legs" on it and put him down anywhere. We have used this at the park, at the Y pool, in Seattle at the Space Needle, and just to go on short walks with around the neighborhood. He falls asleep in it easily too!
His pacifier!
Yes, I have a pacifier addict! Hey, it keeps us all much happier so I am fine with it- for now. Seriously, I have a love/hate relationship with the thing but for now it is working out well. He gets it in the car and in his crib and here and there if we are out and about and he is cranky. I try to not let him suck on it throughout the day. I am sure this will become more difficult to control as he gets older.
And just time to relax and play!
Paxton is very playful. He loves to be tickled, laughs when given zerberts, and enjoys being sung to and read to.
Our littlest guy is over a 1/2 year old. The time is flying by- it really is. I am amazed with Paxton's easy going personality every day. He makes our family so happy. We love you Pax!

What a sweet adorable baby boy....those blue eyes are gorgeous. I am amazed how much he has grown...getting so big. What a lovable little guy.
He couldn't be sweeter!! I can't believe Pax is 7 months already...seems like we were just visiting you in the hospital after he was born. I think it is wonderful how much he loves Rowen. I hope Quinn is crazy about her big brother too. I definitely would like to get a backpack like the one you have. Seems like it is so handy! Know that I am ready to loan you The Paci Fairy book when you need it! :-)
