J Blair

Well I got this new software and this is just a small video I made in a few minutes. I was just learning how to do a couple of things. Thought you would enjoy! Make sure you pause JD's play list at the bottom or two songs will try to play at the same time.

I love you!!

Well....first off let me tell everyone this is Mitchell. I don't usually write on this thing, it is all JD, but tonight I basically hacked into "our" account because I wanted to take a minute to tell my wife how much I love her. I know the Christmas holidays are hard on you, but I wanted to let you know that the holidays are great for me because of you!! I get to be with the most precious wife that has ever got to wear a wedding ring and the best mother that has ever given birth to a child...or adopted one...hahaha! . You are the world to me and without you in my life I would be lost. I thank God everyday for the love that we share, the beautiful family he has given us, the friendship and love to always be there for each other, but most of all for the time that he has given for us to hold hands and express our love. My love for you will never die!! When you are going through hard times so am i because I hate to see you hurt! Also know that not only does Jaxon love her "momma", but I love you for who you are and what you stand for! Thank you for giving me that one chance to take you out a date almost 9 years ago!! You are awesome!! For those of you rolling your eyes (probably my sisters) hush....sometimes these things need to be said!! HAAHAHAHAH...I love you JD!

I'm The Scgrinch!

Well, it's the most wonderful time of the year...for most people. I have developed a little of Scrooge's and the Grinch's attitude and I'm hoping that before Christmas Eve arrives I will pull a Cindy Lou Who and remember that the true meaning of Christmas has nothing to do with decorations and money and what you can and cannot give (because of the lack of money). You know...i love Christmas decor too...it probably is my most favorite thing, i love the lights...i love the stars and the snowmen...really i could go all day...but this year, it's all just beyond me. Anyway where is this rant going?? Oh. Right. Well my wonderful sister in law who is the most amazing photographer ever took some great pictures of the 3 of us, and mostly of this angel of a girl...and when i look at my fluffy hatted pictures of my precious daughter...a little bit of cindy lou who figures itself out in me and i am sooooo thankful to have a precious family to spend the holidays with and celebrate the birth of Christ Jesus...so there you go...Cindy Lou Who has found her way out of me...but I still wish I could give more than I am this year.

So, I'm moving on to brighter news...Jaxon looooves chocolate. She had little nibbles of my hershey bar last night...and couldn't stop asking for more, and this morning mitchell went to get doughnuts...and returned with a chocolate one for her. I'm pretty sure she finished it before me...and left some remains on her face!!

And if she wasn't already the biggest goober in the world...she decided that it is more fun to climb in and out of the the bottom of her stroller than it is to actually sit in it. Anyway...happy holidays...to all...and if you haven't recieved a Christmas card yet...it's because I haven't sent them :) and they will be more like Happy New Year cards! So Bah Humbug to all and to all a good night. JK Merry Christmas and Praise the King.

Cousinhood of the traveling boots

This is the story of 2 cousins who live too far away from each other.

They love each other very very much...and over Thanksgiving they shared many kisses...











And surprise faces too. But the one thing they really had in common was their love for their new shoes!!












They were green with eyes and a smiley face.













And while Avery clearly called them her frog boots...Jaxon pointed and said "dat...dat..." which of course means, "I love my frog boots too, Cousin Avery."

Not only did they run all over the country, but they mowed it too! With their wonderful Aunt Heather and Macy Lou. (Jaxon's melon is poking out of the top of the wagon)

And when they were through with the tractor and jumping in leaves...it was off to house to watch some TV.

Their Neena was in Heaven all through the night while all of her granddaughters watched Dora by her side.

Now Jaxon is lonely but still has her stylin boots to remind her of her country roots!

We are already missin our time in Smithville and can't wait to go back for Christmas!!!

In other news I have now seen Twilight in the theater 3 times...and the last time was the most memorable because I was able to drag Mitchell to the theater with me to see it...and I wasn't just pleased to hear that he liked it...I was more excited about the fact that we left the theater with him asking questions about the book...and the next books...and the next movies!!! I mean he was really interested. I love him.

Oh! and in other news...I guess I haven't made my formal blog announcement...and since Danni already has...I guess I need to. Jaxon is going to be a big sis. EEP! I have no idea how far along I am...but my first appointment is tomorrow morning. And this little nudger is no different from the last...I have already been huggin the toilet for the last 3 weeks. Wahoo!
