Hot Summer Days!!

My new SOFT underwear...Hanna Anderson is the BEST!!

Toilet Time!!  He hasn't fallen in yet!!
Kemah in July....HOT,HOT,HOT but fun times!!
The arcade was the place to be...air conditioning!!  Jaxton loved this...rode it over and over!!
Cooling off at the Aquarium...he actually was interested in the fish this time...but still tried to find the drains..LOL
Looking for the "white" drains and pipes...
And of course it wouldn't be the end of the day until he looked for some MUFFLERS!!!
Water not as pretty as Florida BUT it will do !!
1st visit to the Mad Potter!!  He did so good....thought he would be painting everything else other than the truck!!
Dinner with Mimi while Dada was out of town for work!!

Had to go get ICE CREAM in this heat!! 

He wanted to DRIVE the truck but it was LOCKED!!
Mom-mie and Me with Elsie!!
I told him ONE more picture and so he gave me ONE more!!!  LOL
Oooops...One more picture!!  He couldn't decide!!
1st and ONLY time we will go to I-Hop!!  He said it smelled like TOILET WATER and it was even a new one!! He's trying all the different syrups here!!
Evening at one of my best friend's (Cheri & Nate) houses with the kiddos...I only took ONE picture!
Snow Cones at the park with Ms. Anabel!!! 
Buying my VERY 1st pair of Underwear at Hanna Anderson!!!
These are PERFECT Mom-mie!!  He loves these.....THANK GOODNESS!!
Going to see CARS 2
Who is MORE excited to see the movie here???????

What a month it ended up being!!  We had some very tough times and some good times to end it!! 
When we got back from Florida we immediately went underwear shopping and Jaxton has done EXCELLENT!!  All MOMO's and TeeTee's have been in the toilet except for one time when we went out to dinner for the first time after wearing underwear and another time at my friend's house...the "key" was to show him where the restroom was in each new place we were!  SO as you can imagine we have seen EVERY TOILET at EVERY place we have gone to..so ALOT of TOILETS!!!  Thank goodness for toilet seat covers they sell at Toys R Us and Flushable wipes!!!  I put a pull-up on him when we have traveled in the car for long distances BUT NO ACCIDENTS!!!  He hates them anyway...says they are "Scratchy"!! 
Jaxton hadn't been sick in awhile BUT he made up for it about two weeks ago!  He had a HORRIBLE virus which gave him a temperature up to 104.5!!!  His skin was so HOT I couldn't even barely touch it!  He didn't have any other symptoms but he did get a rash from the fever on his arms and legs!!  He also had a "finger prick" to do a CBC and he was a little anemic so we started him on Disney "Gummy" CARS vitamins!!  He spit the chewable ones out immediately!! We had to go to the afterhours clinic because this happened on a Saturday of course and then that same day Ross's Dad had a Stroke :(  His Mom took him to the hospital in Conroe but after they found out he had a brain bleed they transferred him to Methodist Hospital in the MedCenter to be seen by a neurologist and to be near a neurosurgeon in case they would need to operate!!  THANK GOD and for all the prayers that he didn't need it and after just a few days in the hospital he was released to go home.  His Dad has some impairment with his right hand and right side of his mouth but he should gain it back after rehab..we are PRAYING for a FULL RECOVERY!! 
So now back to some good news...Ross was given an opportunity at work to be a Manager for another territory for 6 months and we are SO PROUD of him and his perseverance!  He has been wanting to do this for a long time and this will give him some GREAT experience to see if this would be the next step he wants to take at work :)
He has been traveling more for training so we have been trying to keep ourselves busy and sick-free!!! 
I had a recent Mammogram and it came back perfect!! Yeah!!  We also had our NOW FAMILY Mole/Freckle check-up at the dermatologist and Ross & Jaxton were "all good" but I had 2 removed off of me BUT he did say he thought they would be just fine!!  Better Safe than Sorry I say!!
We spent the last weekend of July down at Kemah with Mimi and "sweated"!!!  We have now decided the next time we go back is when it's COOL outside! 
Now it's COUNT DOWN time until Jaxton's 1st day of Mother's Day Out!!  I have already begun to talk to him about it alot BUT I know there will be alot of crying I am sure....I am just PRAYING it won't last long and he will LOVE IT...I have a gut feeling he will and then I am gonna be the one CRYING!!! LOL!!
