Today has been all about Jax. John and I took him to Merridee's for breakfast, got him "chick chick" from Chick-fil-A for lunch and fixed a dinner of yummy spaghetti. He got an early birthday present last Friday so he had fun bouncing in his new outdoor bouncer. Sweet baby has not been feeling well since last Saturday so his birthday celebration was postponed until Saturday. We were disappointed not to celebrate with family on his special day but John and I agreed that it would be more fun for him after he was feeling better. He had a good day and seemed to be much better than yesterday but still not totally himself. So we have the "big party" to look forward to in a few days. We had a "mini" party tonight. We got him a cupcake so that he could blow out candles and we sang "Happy Birthday" to him. The past few days I have thought a lot about the day Jax was born and all of the many things that make him so special to John and I. Just wanted to share a few of those things with you. Here are 24 Special Things About Sweet Baby Jax.
