Jax's haircut, pregnancy, gas prices and a new temple?!!

Jax went with Dave to get a much needed haircut the other day. It's impossible to get a decent picture anymore so please excuse the before and after pictures. He was SO good!!! He didn't make a sound. I took pictures because I knew my family wouldn't believe me if I said he was good...so here is the proof :)

This is him in the car before...

This is right before....
And during..... He almost looks like he was ready to fall asleep...so relaxing I guess!

And after....I know you can't really see his hair but it looks much better. I love these pictures because his two front teeth are my favorite...I love his gap!!

Jax and I also get to go to Utah next week to see my family. I'm so excited!! It'll probably be the last time I get to for a long time since I'll be having a baby here soon. It should be a fun trip and I'm really hoping that Jax will be extra good this time....for some reason my family scares him to death. :) I'm 31 weeks tomorrow...according to my doctor (33 weeks according to me) :). I'll be honest...I'm already sick of being pregnant. It's just terrible at this stage. I'm meeting with my doctor every two weeks now and after every appointment, I wonder why I'm paying him to tell me every two weeks...that I've gained weight. I don't need a doctor to tell me that....I can very well see that on my own! :)

Jax is teething right now. He is so grumpy!!! He has gotten up every night and screamed for at least 2 hours. I feel so bad for him. Poor little guy he's getting at least 4 teeth...if not more! His gums are so swollen it's hard to tell.

On a much happier note....Gas here is $2.89!!!! It pays to live in Missouri!!! :) I never thought I'd be so happy to have gas be 2.89 but it's amazing!!!! Also, today President Monson annouced that their building a temple in the Kansas City area.....yay!!!!! It probably won't be done for a while but it's so great to know that we won't always have to drive to St. Louis to make it to the temple once a month. Hopefully we can go once a week!!!! We're really excited!

That's awesome that the church is building a temple by you! Jax looks so cute with his new haircut! I hope he likes us better this time around too...he probably will. Brooklyn has already called dibs on taking care of him while we are in Utah:) I can't believe you are only paying $2.89. I was thrilled today because I saw gas for $3.23.

Seriously....Jax has got to be one of the cutest little boys, ever. I am sure you're aware of that already, though.

Anyway, I hope I get to see you when you come in a week or two. I would love it!

I'm so excited that there will be a temple close to you guys! I can't even tell you how nice it is to be close to so many temples instead of having to spend a day (finding a babysitter for a whole day, I mean) to do a session. Jaxon's hair cut is adorable and I love how chill he is in the pictures. Those front teeth are darling! I hope his other teeth come in really quickly because it sounds like a miserable situation for everyone involved. Isn't it crazy how old pregnancy gets when it isn't your first baby? With Rex, I was over it at about 13 weeks along. You don't have too much longer, though. Yay!

Wow, sounds like you had a fun weekend. I can't believe you are 31 weeks pregnant. That is so exciting! Jax looks so cute and I like his gap between his front teeth as well. I wish Dave snd I were able to go out to Utah while everyone is there. My parents are going to be here in Maryland or we might have been able too.
