October in the Rearview

I can't believe it's already been almost 2 months since my last post. The main event of the last couple of months was definitely our trip to Idaho and Jaxson turning 1! We spent a week at our family's place in New Meadows for Dellas to hunt and to celebrate Jaxson's birthday. It was very special because we had some close family and a couple friends swing thru as well, including Dellas' parents all the way from San Diego.

On Jax's bday we went into McCall to get some cute pictures of the birthday boy by the lake.

That evening we had dinner with family and Jaxson got to open his presents. He got lots of fun toys and few clothes. One of his favorite toys is his new ride-on Jeep from G&G Clark!

All tuckered out

At his 1 year doc appt he was 31" long (83rd percentile) and 22lbs (43rd percentile). He's been walking well for a couple of months now and is quite the jabberer! He says "mama" and "dada" but hasn't quite put together who is who. He is a little bit of a picky eater too. Anything new he's skeptical of but will usually warm up to it. But if he's hungry enough, he only wants what he knows to get that tummy full, NOW!

After we got home we also had a little photography session at a local pumpkin patch. It was only 20 minutes long, which is about perfect for a 1 yr old's patience, but we got a quite few cute ones in that short time!

Next week my mom and I are headed to Spokane for a visit with my sister and my niece. It's the first time flying with Jaxson since he was about 5 months old, so we'll see how it goes! Luckily it's a short flight and I have my mom's help.
