While he took a long nap we did day #6 in our P90X workouts. Kenpo day! If you've ever done kickboxing or taebo it's a lot like that. I was SOOOOO sore!! Muscles I didn't realize I had were super sore! It was the perfect sunny day on Saturday. Just the way I like the temp. Super sunny out but not hot and not cold. I'm not sure what the temp was exactly but probably a nice 75 degrees. Perfect!!! After our workout we sat ourside on the porch drinking water and G2. I love where we live because we can people watch!
Saturday night we met up with Todd's parents for dinner at Eddie Papa's! Jax did pretty well and was in a great mood! He got a little squirmy at the end but he had been sitting in his high chair so well for about 35 minutes so I don't blame him! Below are some pics I took at the restaurant. I'm trying to take pics everyday. The restaurant was super low lit and I didn't want to bring a huge flash to dinner of course, so the lighting is bad! I just turned them all black and white to get rid of the horrible white balance. Shot with a canon 5D with a 50mm 1.4 lens. I shot it wide open so sometimes all that is in focus is Jax! He was the center of attention for most of the evening so... meh. I guess it works.
Sunday we went to church. After we came home we cleaned up the studio for a meeting I had. After my meeting we watched the 49ers game with my mom and Carlos and my mom made us a yummy lunch. Todd designed some business cards for me. I love them!! I helped a little but he always puts the finishing touch to any huge project I do. Except my website... I did that by myself. When Jax woke up from his nap he was so grumpy and threw a temper tantrum for 2 hours on and off. I surprisingly had a lot of patience. It's so hard to handle tantrums with a 14 month old baby. He can't fully understand when I tell him "NO that's not ok to act like that!" I didn't give in to his tantrum though. It would have been much easier to just give him what he wanted to pacify him for our sake but then I'd be allowing him to begin the bad habits I really do not desire my children to have. I think that even at his young age it's never too early to start. All his needs where being met, he was offered food, milk, cuddles and playtime, but 1 thing wasn't exactly how he wanted it so al hell broke loose. It was pretty trying for me. It's hard to see him scream and kick off an on for that long but so far today it's been better. After I got him to somewhat calm down, he ate a ton for dinner and was happy to go downstairs and play. I got out some crayons and showed him how to draw on some printer paper. It was so cute! He was fascinated by all the colors and kept pulling new ones out to see the color. I asked Todd to snap some pics of him real quick because it was so cute. After he got done coloring he wanted to play with the baby monitor which he thinks is a cell phone. He kept holding it up to his ear saying "Hi!" as pictured in the photos below.
After Jax went to bed, Todd made us buffalo chicken salads and we layed in bed eating dinner and watching boardwalk empire. Todd fell asleep and I watched Kim Kardashian's wedding. I was up much too last night writing a blog post I haven't finished yet. It's pretty deep and personal so I'll leave it for another day this week. Enjoy the pics from our weekend and also a couple of my purchase finds last week.
I love this top right pic!! This totally is his personality. He plays this game where he offers you a bite of his food and then quickly shoves it into his mouth. Such a tease! Usually he's sweet and shares but sometimes he'll do his lil game. That's what this face was, and Todd's fake look of shock which Jax eats up!
