More Teeth!

Jaxson got his second tooth over the weekend. He's growing so fast! He started biting the spoon when I'm feeding him and he pulls the funniest face! Man I love that kid lol.

Last weekend sucked for me because it started with me having flu symptoms Friday night and half the day Saturday. I felt better around lunch time and my sisters and mom and I all went to Salt Lake for the women conference thing. We had such a good time. We went to eat before it started. I can't remember the last time I laughed that hard! Sunday Mike and I lounged around all day watching football. Sunday night I started getting a pretty bad headache and my forehead was sensitive to the touch. I figured I smacked my head on something and went to sleep. Well Monday morning I woke up with the right side of my face and forehead totally swollen. I could feel the sinus or whatever it is that goes from my nose up to my hair and the one that goes down the side of my face to my ear. It was all sore and definitely swollen. I stayed home from work and decided to give it a day before calling the doc. Tuesday it was looking better but I took the day off again just in case. Everything seems to be back to normal except that my face is still sensitive to the touch. It was really weird though...

Other than that things are going good with us. All for now. Bye!

Family Update

This is a dorky thing to be excited about but that's just me I guess lol. I bought Cricket wireless internet for my Mini. It was the cheapest one I could find (I got lazy after looking at like 3 websites lol). It should be here in the next few days. I'm excited because this way I can get on my own internet instead of bumming it from my neighbors or from my work's wireless which by the way is apparently monitored so they caught me logging in to Facebook lol. That's where this whole "get internet on Mini" thing came in. It was a pretty good deal though... I think. 25 bucks up front and first month free then like 40 a month after. The best part is since it's Cricket I can cancel whenever so if I end up working from home for the tax season I don't have to worry about paying for something I'm not using. Go me!

In other news, the Colletti house is changing like crazy! Jaxson is growing fast. He scoots and stuff all over now which is so cute. It can be annoying though lol. I look away for a second and he's 5 feet away about to eat the one non-baby thing on the floor, which almost always happens to be something for the dogs... sick!!! I love the kid though. He's super cute. He's been a little grumpy lately which I assume is from teething. He has another one that's about to poke through. He's handling it well though. He just seems to be more clingy than usual which I freaking love! He usually never wants to be held or cuddled unless he's eating or sleepy. He would rather you play with him or walk with him or something like that. Jaxson is trying a lot of new things this month. He has tried a couple of new foods including meats and stuff (I'm sorry but that can't be good... liquid meat). He's also using a sippy cup every now and then for water or juice. We don't give him a lot though because we want him to get enough food first. He also started "going" to people. It used to be that he would kick his legs and his eyes would get all big when he wanted to go to someone but now he's learned to lean towards them and put his arms out a little. It's still a new thing for him so it's still super cute every time he does it cuz he's a little unbalanced and awkward hehe. I love him! I don't think he could possibly be any cuter.

Mike and I are doing good. Mike's getting ready for arena football season (starting Nov) and looking into starting at Weber next fall. Our goal is for him to go to school and play football for a scholarship. Mike is a great football player. It's unfortunate that he didn't start school right after he graduated (partly my fault ;)). Mike and I both agree that we should have gone to school so it's our goal to have Jaxson go to college. My parents weren't in the position to financially support me going to school and I since there was no one saying "You need to go to college Heather" I didn't go. I think it was kind of the same thing with Mike. We're really excited to get back into school. Mike will be starting next fall but I don't know if I will start with him or not. Once we get in the groove of that change we'll add me into it. I'm hoping to start the following spring.
Well that's really all for now. Bye!

Another post you can skip...

This is a stupid girl post so feel free to ignore this.

Girls are so stupid! I freaking hate them. I never had a problem hanging out with girls and having a ton of girlfriends but the last couple of years I've been mostly hanging out with Mike's friends since mine had kind of moved on to bigger and better things (yes Dawn I'm talking about you lol). I think hanging out with guys all the time has ruined my ability to not hate girls lol. Girls are caddy, rude, selfish, and DRAMATIC! Lord knows I'm dramatic... there's NO way I can be friends with someone dramatic... it would be like a bad reality TV show... no thank you! The point of this post is a "friend" of mine ("friend" because apparently it's one-sided) and I had a conversation about family drama (yes I admit it really was none of my business) and we disagreed. The whole thing ended, well let's just say not bad but not good... key words "not bad." Now if you know me, you know I generally get over whatever my issue is if you just let me and it's no big deal. Well this "friend" went to the other extreme by deleting me from all the super-fun internet-y things... She deleted me as a friend on Facebook lol. She's not on my chat list and she even removed me as a follower on her blog lol. We all know this isn't a big deal and isn't even worth mentioning other than the funny factor but still... UGH! Girls are so stupid!

Jaxson's First Tooth!

Jaxson is growing so fast! He cut his first tooth over the weekend. I didn't even know he did it until last night when he was being a little cranky before bed. It isn't like him to be grouchy so I figured his gums were hurting him again. I went to put some baby Orajel on there and I felt his little tooth! Jaxson's first tooth... holy freaking crap! Time flies man... freaking sucks too lol. I gave Mike the task of trying to get a picture of it so I can post it... we'll see how that goes lol. I took some video of Jaxson over the weekend crawling across the floor and also him playing with the "baby in the mirror." He's so much fun! I love being around him. He's seriously the coolest kid I know, must have gotten that from his dad :)

Jaxson was tired and being kind of cranky but didn't want to take a nap. These pics show his attitude lol.

Just fine, hanging out with Dad and Cena...

"Hey Mom... I can't tell if I'm happy or sad..."

Yawn... "No wait! I'm not tired..."

This is where the parents (that's us) are unconvinced of this "not tired" business and Jaxson goes to bed lol.

Here's my cute kid in his bathrobe. Too cute!

Here are pics of my baby boy sleeping. I went in to check on him and Couldn't resist taking pictures when I saw him sleeping like this with his bum in the air. He looked so peaceful.

That's all for now!

It's My Party...

I turned the big 24 yesterday. I told Mike I wanted to go to the new Sparetime in Syracuse so that's where we went. We got there around 6 and decided we wanted to bowl. They had a special for as many games as possible in 2 hours for 7.99 a person. We got a few lanes and ordered pizza. Mike and I took some pictures of people hanging out. Most of them didn't know I was taking the picture lol. Anyway, here the are:








These pictures turned out pretty funny. I was holding Jaxson and he was looking at Courtney who was trying to get him to smile.


My little brother Josh hanging out.

Mark found an 8lb pink bowling ball for me. It was still pretty heavy lol. I was showing Jaxson and he thought it was too cool.

I told Chris to smile for the picture so this is what he did... figures right? lol

Mom, Dad, Josh and Royce

Mike and his dad. The jersey his dad's wearing was the one Mike and Matt bought him for his birthday last week. You can tell he loves it.

Dad, Chris, Josh and Royce.

Sky and Mom bowling.

Mike and Mark

Me and Jaxson hanging out. He was so good! We went for a few hours so I thought for sure he would get cranky but he was a trooper! He only got a little grouchy on the way home but I dont' blame him. He went to sleep right when we got home though so it's all good.

Cute baby alert!

Mom and Royce

I know I suck at taking pics... lol This is the back of Mike's mom and dad lol. That's Mike's grandma Williams on the right (Dave's mom). She's visiting for a little while. Oh yeah Mark's the one in the back lol.

Dad and Sky bowling.

Me and Jaxson again. I actually don't like to bowl lol. I only wanted to go to Sparetime because I knew everyone would have fun hanging out and I didn't have to stress or plan anything. I went to hang out with little Jax. He's just so perfect. He's the sweetest little boy you'll ever meet!

Awwww...

Big Mike! Man, I love this guy. Mike is one of the best things in my life (the other being Jaxson lol). I'm so grateful to have him in my life.

Haha! Here's August. I think she's trying to eat her fries lol.

HAHA! My dad was waiting to bowl and I totally got him on camera standing like Peter Pan!! Freaking love it dude.

My hot man!

My adorable kid

Love that boy!!

All in all it was a pretty great birthday this year. Thanks Mike for making everything great!

6 Month Checkup

More pictures! OMG my kid is just too cute for words! He loves to smile and laugh all the time. These pics are evidence that this kid is a happy one lol.

I just love that face!!

Daddy and Jaxson. Jax loves watching sports with Dad. These guys are BFFs lol

Seriously?! Could he get any cuter???

"Huh?"

Jaxson wearing Dad's hat. Maybe a little on the LARGE side?

Jaxson and Dad fell asleep in the chair together. So precious.

Mike and I took Jaxson to his 6 month checkup yesterday and we're happy to report that everything is going great! The doctor said he's above average on height and average on weight and head size. He said it's great that Jaxson is sitting up and almost crawling. He checked out his legs and hips and stuff and said he's more than strong enough to crawl and he said he wouldn't be surprised if he's walking by his 9 month appt. He also suggested we start feeding Jaxson more baby food and less formula. He even said we should get Jax a sippy cup! What?! Babies don't use sippy cups, they use bottles... What the heck happened to my little baby?! lol I told Mike after the appointment that I was totally ok with not encouraging Jaxson to walk and all that just yet lol. Since he's so ahead of the game (according to the doc not me lol) I figured he'll probably do it all on his own anyway. I seriously just can't believe it's already been 6 months. I've said it before and I'm sure I'll say it a whole lot more: Kids grow too fast! NOT FAIR! lol
