Jaxson has officially outgrown his infant tub and has graduated to the big tub! He loves the water and would stay in the tub all night if we let him. Kahlua is very curious and likes to watch Jax get his bath (I think she is just grateful its not her getting the bath).
Our time in Florida has been mostly spent in long sleeves and pants, but we did have one nice day that made it into the high 70’s. So we put Jax in his new bathing suit and brought him to the pool. He really enjoyed the swim. Of course, it helped that the pool was heated. (or was it? we were swimming in the family pool with lots of little kids!). We stayed in the water for probably 15 to 20 minutes, and I think Jax would have stayed in for another 20 if we let him. Right before we got out, we tried dunking him under water. We dunked him 3 times and while it was clear that he didn’t really enjoy it, he didn’t complain too much and returned to good spirits after the water cleared from his face. Overall, I think he had a great time and will take to the water quite well.
For Christmas, Santa brought us a new 720p HD video camera! So good news for you blog readers, we will now be adding in the occasional video. What could be a better subject for the first video blog post than when Jaxson meets his only living Great Grandparents. Ed and Madeline Ashline are Kristis' mothers' parents. A couple of days after Christmas we were able to drive to Ft. Myers to see them. Jax did great on the trip and we were able to get some nice pictures and memories from it.
