Realizing Jax is getting older :(

So above are some pictures capturing some of Jaxon's latest discoveries. Sitting on his own, (he's been doing this for awhile, but we finally took the camera out), trying to crawl (or more descriptive, 'humping the air' currently), playing with his pacifier (it's more of a chew toy than a paci these days), and just being himself. Everyone always says they grow up faster than you can imagine, but you never really understand that until you're a parent. I already miss the days of howling, cuddling, and size 3 diapers. We are learning as parents that you start to develop new fears of losing each other, or losing Jax. I find myself spending time in his room, watching him sleep, and it takes all I have to not tear up because of how fast he is growing and how much I love my family. Lauren and Jax are truly a blessing from God and I thank him everyday for the opportunity to watch over and take care of them.
