One of those Days...

Every now and then (well a lot actually) I have one of those days with Jaxon that I just want to freeze in time. Don't get me wrong- he had his occasional "two year old moments" but for the most part, he was a very good boy and almost every single thing that came out of his mouth made me laugh out loud. This kid's funny! Daddy went to get in the shower after his 2nd game of the day, and Jax looked at me and said, "I wanna take a shower." I told him to let me take his clothes off and he could- and he looked at me and said, "I can hardly wait!" Precious, I tell ya...
We didn't feel like being stranded at the hotel all day (Actually we just got some rest last night so we had the energy to do something besides lay around all day.) We took Daddy and dropped him off at the gym this morning so that we would have the car. Then we came home and got ready and went shopping at the Hamburg Pavillion. It was awesome! They had a Carters, Gymboree, Baby Gap and Children's Place and they were all having some of the biggest sales that I have ever seen! It was an obsessive mother's heaven on earth. However, my MIL has tried to convince me lately that Jaxon does not need anything else for the summer. So I was a very good girl. I did get him one shirt from Carter's that was only $4.99 and I was convinced we absolutely couldn't live without. And then I got some shirts from Children's Place in a 4t to put up for next year. We ate lunch at Chick-fil-A... and then met back up with Daddy to spend a few hours with him before he had to be back at the gym to ref his third game of the day.
We dropped Daddy back off at the gym and then Jax and I went on a Mommy Date!
We went and saw Toy Story 3! You guys have no clue how absolutely pumped I was...
And it did not dissapoint. I don't want to give any details away because I'm sure that you all want to see it- so I'll just say this. I laughed... AND I CRIED! It was that good (or maybe I'm just an emotional/hormonal/overly-sentimental mother). Either way, it was awesome!
And this kid was even awesomer! He acted like an angel during the entire movie (and ate an entire bag of popcorn!) He sat in my lap for the first hour and a half and never fought to get up. During the last thirty minutes he stood between my legs and held my hand. I couldn't have asked for him to be any better!
And I couldn't have asked for this day to be much better either!
(Just wish that Daddy could have hung out with us more!)
