22 months!

Only 2 months until my little guy turns two!  Crazy!! 




Daddy was taking down the old swingset that was here when we moved in, Jaxson drug this swing all around the yard.
Demolition!  It's all gone, ready for our groundbreaking ceremony for Fort Jaxson on Friday! Yes, we really are having a ceremony, lol!  It's a BIG deal at our house! :)

This little guy is the king of Don't Break the Ice but to him this is a "one player game" and he controls both of the hammers, we are just there to reassemble when finished!
Daddy's chalk art, Mickey and Minnie Mouse.

He is now responding to all questions rather than sometimes just repeating them...yes is "hm-hmm" and no is a resounding "no!"  He loves to draw circles and airplanes (it's crazy how much they really do resemble an airplane!).  He says "Do that again!" when we do something fun or are making him laugh, I absolutely love it. :) He also says, "Goin to get you!" and will act like a tiger or a bear and come after us.  He loves to build tents out of sheets and the dining room chairs in the middle of our living room.  He loves watching Nemo and Cars and would probably sit and watch movies all day if we'd let him, big change from our little guy who wouldn't ever pay attention for longer than 30 seconds to the TV only 2 months ago. 
Need to get started planning his 2 year party...  but it will have to wait because both of us have this:  Hand, Foot, Mouth Disease.  And although it says it is rare for adults to get it because they have developed antibodies to protect them THIS adult HAS NOT. :(  It is honestly without a doubt one of the most painful things I have ever experienced.  Began as a three day fever 99-104, one day fever free with a sore throat and then these painful blisters/ulcers developed all over our bodies, down our throat, in our ears, up our nose, all over our hands, between our toes and even on our bums!  NO FUN!  So us sicklies are home together for at least two more days and I have to reschedule all my Parent Teacher Conferences.  I'm hoping Jason is lucky enough to have these antibodies I'm supposed to!

Ohh, you poor things. That does sound painful. Hope you both get to feeling better really soon.
