Then and now.



This week I have been amazed as we looked over pictures that we have taken of Jaxon over the last 5 1/2 months. It is so amazing to me to see how this small bundle of joy has grown into such a beautiful happy little boy. As we approach the Thanksgiving holiday, I am everyday grateful for my opportunity to have such a blessing in our home!

Jury Duty!

You have to love our legal system, and the attorneys/judges that run it. I got summoned for jury duty last week. Really not my favorite thing to do. Last time I got summoned I wore a glock t-shirt and took American Handgunner to read. (I was dismissed within 2 hours).

Called last night to verify that I needed to show up today. So I went to the Gilbert Municipal court. Checked in by 8:15 as instructed, and then sat and waited. After about 2 hours of waiting the judge comes in and tells all 50 of the summoned potential jurors that they could leave. Apparently the "key witness" didn't bother to show up for court.

It scares me that so many of our elected officals in Washington want to reform our healthcare system, but can't even manage the government that we have now effectively!

The start of solids!

Jax started solids today. We had tried about a month ago, but he wanted nothing to do with it. This time it was different. He went after it. (mainly he wanted to hold/play with the spoon) It was a fun afternoon of feeding and cleaning him up. I will have to post some pictures when I get a chance!
