Happy 2 Months Jax!

     The past two months have FLOWN by at the Moore House!   There has been a lot of excitement and some changes.   I started my FINAL year of Nursing School last Monday, which means, that Jax started staying with his Great Grandparents during the week.  I have hated leaving him but I know both he and my grandparents enjoy the time together!   Today was his two month appointment.  He weighs 12 lbs 0.5 oz and is 22 inches long.  His noggin is 16 inches around and he's a chunky, happy, little guy.   He is definitely animated like his momma!  He loves to talk and make crazy faces all day long.  He really doesn't fuss much, unless he's hungry, and you're not filling his tummy as much as he'd like.  He doesn't really care for tummy time unless he's laying on Mommy or Daddy's tummy and he's being talked to.  He's definitely a little rotten, but absolutely the most lovable little boy anyone could ever meet!     
     He got to go to his first Tech Game on Saturday.  It was such an awesome experience to get to share my love of Football and Texas Tech with my sweet baby boy.  He may not know now, but he'll always know he was exposed to good football at an early age!  He did great at the game!  Didn't fuss, stayed awake and alert, and even made a few "guns up" with his tiny hands (all on his own too!)   It was a fun little weekend.  We're hoping to make it to Cowboy's Stadium for the ASU game next weekend too but we'll see.  A little guy and a big stadium is a lot of work for this momma!    Jax also got to go to his first baseball game!   Such a neat treat for our little family!  
     Lots of exciting things have been happening for Jay and I too!  We just started the remodel on our guest bathroom (well so far we demolished the walls, and thats about it)  so that we can take care of the leaking that was occurring in the shower.  Jay is way excited for football to start, and we're having BOTH of our families over to our house for Grandparents' Day this weekend.  Like I said, I just started my last semester of Nursing School.  Definitely an exciting time for all of us!  It's a little overwhelming but I'm trying to remember that the END IS NEAR!   Couldn't have made it this far without my WHOLE family.  I also took on a new role this week.  Vice President of the Student Nurses' Association.   I probably sound like a glutton for punishment, taking on such a big role with a new baby, but I was so honored to have been nominated by my professor's that I thought I might accept the challenge!    I really hope that the SNA gets the boost it needs at ASU and that it ends up benefitting the awesome Nursing students that make it.   I'm definitely excited about the Howdy Party tomorrow to meet all the new and upcoming students!   I guess that means I better get all of my studying done tonight! 

Until Next Time, 
  Peace, Love and Family
