Here Comes Santa Clause

Yesterday was party day for the Keele family!!! We went to our annual family Christmas party with Riley's extended family and then we had a December birthday party at Jennilyns house. We have 4 birthdays between the 17th and the 23rd in the family! So after all the partying we had a special visitor come- SANTA!!! OH MY GOSH! SANTA'S COMMING!!! I know him!- Sorry I' watching Elf so that kinda snuck into my htoughts! Anyhow!!! :D heehee Santa came and all the kiddos got to tell him what they wanted- too bad none of the kids are good! Ok they're good enough! Daaelynn asked for a bowling game, a doll, and a train. Jaxon wants diapers and an ocean wonder crib toy- yes he told Santa specifically :D But best of all was my smarty husband- he asked Santa if he could to check up on Riley's math final he just took for school. See our Santa happens to have connections in the math department as Riley's school lucky enough- he works there in the "off season". I got a good laugh out of that- of course Santa is no cheater and I'm sure Riley did fine himself, but if there was a Santa to ask- he was it!!! Well my friends this is probably my last post till after Christmas so MERRY CHRISRTMAS my blogging pals! I hope your Christmas is wonderful and special- don't forget to remember the real reason for the season though and feel thanks to out Heaven;y Father and Savior! Love you all!!!

Ruba dub dub!

Well Mr Jaxon is 4 weeks old today!! And yesterday he got his first REAL bath- not just the spongy kind. We went all out with the tub, water, the works! He didn't knwo what to think at first, but there was only a little crying at the beginning. You can see form the pics to follow his cute little scowl though so maybe he was suffering in silence. He is such a sweet little guy! I love him so much! And even though he is still little I get it now when people told me there's something about having a little boy- I love it! I am also proud to say I am not 1/2 as phsyco with this little baby than I was the first time around. I am emotionally and physically handeling thing so much better which is awesome for everyone :D

See the enthusiasm!?

That little froggie cover is awesome! It keeps them warm.


Tubbit time!

The finished product! All squeeky clean!

We're alive!!!

Well Mr. Jaxon has been here for 2 weeks and 3 days! All I have to say is- WoW that went by fast! I'm happy to report those 2 weeks and 3 days have actually gone really well! The house is actually maintaining a sense of order, I don't totally want to die from lack of sleep, and Daaelynn hasn't had too hard of a time adjusting. Just to name a few happy things! Jaxon went to his 2 week Dr. appt. for a check up and his circumcision :( and :). He weighs 7lb 1oz and is 20.5 inches now- which made me all sortsa happy. The circumision on the other hand... yah.. I sat in the waiting room and cried!!! Riley stayed out with me too in disgusted awe that I was bawling about the procedure. He was MUCH more chill about it than I was! And I will admit NOW that it wasn't too bad, but I was SO ready to back out and forget the whole thing at the time. Daae was just concerned that he was going to get shots. I reassured her that he wasn't getting shots, but i sure didn't tell her it was a bit worse than shots actually! Speaking of Daae- she is turning into such a good sister! So funny though- the day we came home she sat with Riley when he changed Jax's diaper, and of course he cried. Daae didn't know what to do- she looked ready to cry too so we had to explain he was fine just unhappy about his cold butt. She's not thrilled about me still sleeping upstairs in the livingroom, but that won't last forever.

Well that's all I have for now! Here are some more pictures to leave you with!! Our trip to the festival of lights and Daae loving on her new baby! I have more/ newer pics, but they're still on my camera :( I'll put more up when I can!

Jaxon Robert Keele

Here is our new little man! Jaxon Robert Keele born November 19 2009, 1:08pm. Weighed 6lb 10oz 19.5 inches long! It was kinda nerve racking, but we made it and we're both doing really well. We got to the hospital at 5:30; I was set up to be the 1st one in, but somone came in laboring and had to have a C-section before meeeee so we were bumped to 12:30. I wasn't too whiney though because when I had Daae I probably bumped somone too! :D From there everything went pretty well. My knees were shaking when I was waiting for the epidural in the OR, but it went as good as anyone would want. Riley got to be there with me this time and was the 1st one to hold his little boy. The nurses claim his hair is red- what there is of it - only time will tell! All around he is SO CUTE! I'm so in love :D

One Week!!!

One week to go my friends! 7 little days! 168 hours!!! 10,080 MINS!!! Ok that's far enough I guess LoL Anyhow I had my second to last Dr Apt today. I had it with another Dr in my Dr's practice though because my normal Dr. is off in Cambodia/ Vietnam area doing humanitarian work for the church. I think I have told everyone I know this- is it weird to be proud of your Dr??? lol So I also got a little surprise with this other Dr though- in case my Dr is not back and I go into labor he gets to deliver Mr. Jaxon (C-section), so he asked me if I knew where the placenta is.....eerrrrr in there somewhere right?? :D I knew it wasn't placenta previa going on, but heck if I knew. I told him last I heard at the ultrasound 20 weeks ago it was in a good spot. So he says "Well let's go back to the ultrasound machine" this was me o.O YEAH! :D!!!! I didn't think I'd get to see my lil man again till her was here in the flesh, but I did! Didn't get any pics, but it was awesome to see him again all big and crammed in there. I just wish I would have had Riley come with me since he didn't get to go the 1st time :p He's not to heartbroken though- when he can meet him face to face is when he gets into it. Daae gets all baby crazy with me though so it's all good :D Well I don't know if I'll update again before he gets here, but I'll be sure to show him off on here ASAP when he arrives! Thanks for all the love and support everyone!!!! Love you!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Halloween!

OK so it's been 4 day since Halloween, but I had to show off the pics of my little Sleeping Beauty. We went up to PG to my sis in laws house for some Halloween dinner then down to Provo to my other sis in laws old neighborhood to trick or treat. I think i can say that it is surely Daae's favorite holiday! She was a woman on a mission hitting those houses up for candy! At least she was a polite trick-or-treater despite her divide and conquer ways. so here are some pics!!!

Pre-festivities pics! Before she destroyed her makeup :D

Grandma and Grandpa with all the grand kiddos.

Yah I cropped this one folks!!! the tummy was not feeling photogenic!

Chad taking his turn trick or treating with the lion. I have a quote for after this pic too " And now that I am blind..." :D thanks for being a sport Chad!!

Little miss strike a pose still having a blast!

Two more crazy ( and comedic) cousins!!

What a princess looks like after a hard day of trick-or-treating!

And that was our Halloween!!!!
