Swing Batta Batta Batta
Tatum started T-Ball this year, and let me tell you this has been a fabulous experience. Watching her little four-year-old body try to catch, hit, and run bases has been a delight. She looks adorable all decked out in her gear, and we are loving every game. It's so fun to watch our nuggets grow into little humans and see the amazing things they are capable of.
Kindergarten
Today was a fabulous day. Mama, Daddy & T Bug got to head to T's new school and do Kindergarten Orientation. What a fabulous time! We did a school tour, a bus ride, kiddo activities, ate lunch, and played outside. We are so blessed to be able to enjoy this time in our little nugget's life. WE can't wait to see what next year brings for T.

Dear Jax, 10 months
**Mama's Note: here I thought I missed the 10 month post, and it was in my drafts all along. :) **
Dear Jax,
You are already 10 (TEN!) months old! We can't believe you are inching so close to the big O-N-E! We have been loving your personality as it begins to show it's true colors these days. We are sure we are going to be a very busy mommy and daddy with you!
Some of the things you do these days that amaze us:
1. You love to pull out all of the spices and shake them like a baby rattle. You do not like to pick them up and put them away.
2. You love to climb in the dishwasher and pull out all of the dishes, dirty OR clean. You just love to bang around in there.
3. You are growing about 6 teeth on top, not including the 2 you already have on the bottom. Your mouth is getting full!
4. You say a few words: "Mama" (like once), "Da-Da" or "Da-Dy", "Ta-Ta", and I've heard "Papa" once also. You also say "Uh-Oh" when you "accidentally" drop something on the floor over and over. :)
5. You are a crawling fool and you love to cruise the furniture. Anything you can grab onto and you are up on your feet.
6. TODAY you took about 2 steps between Daddy & Mama.
7. You love to go in the dresser drawers and throw the clothes out, tossing them over your shoulder.
8. You love your sister more than ANYTHING (even Mama) and you especially love to pull her hair.
9. You love all things boy - cars, trucks, tractors - complete with making the noise with your mouth.
10. You are (almost) always HAPPY.
Our love has grown for you exponentially even in just the last month. Your giggle, your smile, your growl - we love it all!
You have proven to be quite the Mama's boy, which has been slightly interesting...:)
We are so blessed to have you in our lives. We can't wait to see what the next month brings...
Love,
Mama

Dear Jax
Dear Jax,
You are 11 months now. Your Mama missed the boat big time and failed to write you a letter for your 10 month birthday. Woopsy-daisy.
Anywho...
You continue to blow us away with all the crazy things you do. I use the word "crazy" loosely. I mean, you are such a different little nugget than your sister was.
Some of the things you enjoy doing daily are:
1. pulling all of the toilet paper off the roll
2. lifting up the toilet and slamming it on your fingers
3. playing in the toilet if someone accidentally left the lid open
4. standing in front of the book shelf and pulling off every book and then throwing them over your shoulder
5. eat a lot of food, your favorites are: yogurt, cheese, bread, fruit of any kind, carrots, cottage cheese
6. chase your sister around the house
7. yell really loud
8. talk! you say Daddy, Mama, Ta-Ta, Hi, and I've heard Papa and Nana on occasion
9. Mimic - you love to copy anything we do - blowing kisses, waving, etc.
10.play in the eat dirt
You have taken 5-6 steps a bunch of times, and we know you are really close to walking!
We love you so much, you keep us on our toes at all times! Thanks for being such a little nugget and making us so happy.
Love,
Mama
