My 1st Haircut

Jaxon's first haircut at four months old. His Aunt Jen cut his hair, and he was pretty good for the haircut. Jaxon did get a little grumpy at the very end. Jaxon did have some crazy long hair it was so long we had to start doing the comb-over. I think he was cute either way; :) Go Figure I'm the mom.

Jaxon's 1st Christmas

Jaxon's first Christmas! As you can see he tried to open his presents but he needed a little help. :) He got spoiled from his Grandparents & Family!!

Baby Blessing Nov 30th

Sunday, Nov 30th, Jaxon Matthew Rhoades was blessed by his father Ryan Thomas Rhoades. It was a beautiful day and blessing!

One month later

It's already been a month which came and went in a whirl wind. Jaxon is almost eleven pounds now and still has all his hair. Mom and dad are still loving every minute even though its quite heck tick. First-time Grandparents can't get enough of him. All the family have been really excited to finally met Jaxon. All taking turns holding, hugging, and kissing him to death. My mom has been really helpful when I had some complications with my surgery. And Jaxon with his slight case of jaundice for the first week of his life. Everything is going good now with both me and the baby.

Ryan just started a new job on Monday with an ambulance service in Salt lake City. So now he is an EMT as well as a Volunteer Fireman. Ryan loves helping and saving peoples lives. Ryan is thinking about going back to school to get his paramedic or nursing licence. Which I am totally thrilled that he has found something he loves and has a passion of doing. Now I just need to find my thing now being a mom its really hard for me to think of leaving Jaxon to work. But hopefully I can find something part-time that I will be happy to do. But for a couple more weeks I can just put all my focus into my new family and I just love that!

Jaxon is here!

Well on August 27, 2008 Ryan & I drove to Davis Hospital. Where I had an appointment to get started at 8:00 AM that morning. Where we found out I was having contractions already but, I couldn't feel them. They started me and broke my water around 8:30 AM. I still couldn't feel the contractions until after 1:00 PM then they came on strong. I finally got an epidural when the medicine was at the max strengthen and couldn't breathe through the contractions. It was time to push and I did so for an hour and forty-five minutes. Even with the help of the vacuum I couldn't get him out; Jaxon was in the face up position. So it was off to the operating room to get me prepped where and hour later we had our little man. Jaxon was born at 9:40 PM weighing 8 pounds and measuring at 21 inches long. I couldn't believe the instant Love that I felt for Jaxon and the appreciation for Ryan to help me through it all. Jaxon is a beautiful baby boy. I couldn't believe how much hair he has on his little head. Ryan and I couldn't be more happy to have him finally here.
