***This is a mommy post and there will be talk of cute chubby babies.
Jax will be 8 months in a few weeks. That is beyond crazy to even think about. He still weighs around 22lbs if not more. I boxed up a lot of his 6-12 month clothes last weekend. He now needs mom to go shopping. He is slacking in the 18 month department. He is crawling everywhere and in the last week has learned to stand up on everything. He can pull himself up onto any surface and of course does it on things he shouldn't. The other day, Michael was suppose to be watching the boys, and I found Jax in the drawer underneath the oven. He was playing with the pots and pans. You also cannot give him a bath without him getting out of the bathtub. I cannot get him to stay still. If he sits on your lap, he is jumping. If he is on the floor, he is crawling or getting into everything. He has quickly learned the word "No" but unlike Jake, completely ignores it. Jake was super baby. He never put anything into his mouth, didn't go places he shouldn't, we baby proofed and he took it all off but never touched it. It was heaven. Jax....not so much. His chunky self is in everything and loves to be the rebel of the family. Jake tries to put him in time out all the time. It's hilarious. Sadly, last night, he went another step further. He fed himself. He always missed his mouth or put the food to far below in his hand. Last night, he got it. He then would start talking and doing his excited legs every time he did it. I was so happy for him, but yet, so sad. Something as small as him putting a noddle in his mouth, almost brought me to tears. I feel that we only have a few more key points until he is at Jake level. He even utters the word "Dada" when he sees Michael. This I am fine with because Jake said "Mama" first. He is working on standing no his own. He will let go for a second and then grab whatever he was holding onto. Help me if he starts walking anytime soon! I just can't believe how quick this is all going! I still haven't grasped that I have a 4 year old.
