What's Been Happening

I am putting a lot of posts into one to let you know what has been going on with the Fromm's.

Makenna celebrated her birthday this past weekend with a slumber party at our house. Her birthday is really Oct. 22, this is just when we could fit her party in. Makenna is such an amazing girl. She definitely keeps us doing good and is such a great example to everyone around her. She is a great big sister for Jaxon as well. We love her so much.

For her party the girls did some crafts then went swimming at the YMCA. These are the only pictures I took all night though :(



Jaxon has been growing like crazy! He had his first halloween, which we really didn't do anything for. But he did dress up for the trunk or treat. And he was able to show off his pumpkin onsie when we hung out with my mom and sister.



I love these pictures of Jaxon and Brayden together. They were so funny when we were trying to take their picture.





So I love my little boy so much, but he is kind of a fuss pot. We thought that i would go away at one month, then maybe at two months, and then finally I had enough so we took him back to the Dr. I took him to a chiropractor to make sure he wasn't in any pain, I tried that gripe water stuff, and nothing was really working. So the Dr. told us that he most likely was just colic and we just get to wait until he grows out of it. Yay for us! I just thought these pictures were cute of Brett and Jaxon when we were at the doctor's office.




And here are just some really cute and funny pictures of Jaxon.



Every time I see this picture I can't stop laughing.

I have learned that he actually loves sitting in his crib and watching his mobile. This keeps him happy for at least 5 minutes. So if I ever need to keep him occupied for a second, this is where he goes.



Lastly, we finally decided to get a new roof on our house. I know what you are thinking, this roof with black spray paint on it looks so good though. Well this roof has been leaky since we moved in almost 4 years ago. About a month ago Brett decided to buy some spray seal stuff. Well it kind of worked but our roof looks absolutely disgusting. So the construction has started this week which has made my house a very noisy place to be. But I am super excited to show you the after pictures of a NEW roof soon!

Maverick was super fussy and colicy. It got a lot better when he turned 4 months old. I think 4 months is when they usually grow out of it. frustrating though

Those pictures are so funny of Jaxon!! The cousin pics are so cute too!! Sorry that he is so fussy! He'll grow out of it soon I bet! You can always drop him off here if you and Brett want a date night, and you need to get away for a bit!

Both my children were colicy. I'm so sorry! I don't wish it on anyone. I got off all dairy and that seemed to help a lot and also Mylicon drops BEFORE my second one ate worked...it didn't help out with the first kid. Good luck! both my kids were soothed with the moby wrap too. good luck! Both grew out of it by 4 months. LOVE the pictures. super cute!
