Good Vibes and Sneaky Baby Monitors

Well, a lot has happened in the past few days. First of all, on a serious note, Jaxon's CT scan at Vanderbilt has been scheduled for next week. Please keep us in your thoughts and prayers and send us good vibes as this will be a very difficult day. He will have to be sedated for the test, so that means nothing to eat or drink for a while before the test. I know that this will not make him happy, and will probably be more difficult for me and Jonathan than it will be for him. I do have to admit that I am nervous. I am really praying for good results. We should find out a few days after the scan.


Jaxon is doing much, much better with his cereal. He still LOVES his bottle, but really enjoys his cereal as long as he's not too super hungry. He loves it when I sing songs to him as he eats. He just looks at me and giggles.



As you know, we have moved Jaxon in his own room and he seems to really like it. Well, since moving him into his room, we have started using a new baby monitor. It works really well, almost too well. Ya see, the other morning at around 5:30, we heard Jaxon moving around in his crib. And then, we heard what sounded like a baby's cry, but I knew that it did not sound like Jaxon. Well, a couple more minutes went by and we kept hearing the same sounds. Jonathan and I could not figure it out, so Jonathan decided to go ahead and get Jaxon and we would feed him. Well, Jonathan brought Jaxon in the living room and I began to give him his bottle. At about that time, we heard a man's voice on the baby monitor very loud and clear. He said "Good Morning, Sweetheart."


Needless to say, me and Jonathan were shocked!! It sounded like there was a man in the next room!! It was a good thing that we had already gotten Jaxon up because Jonathan would have had to go in there with the baseball bat preparing to fight off an intruder! Fortunately, we immediately recognized the voice - it was Kerry! About that time we then heard Courtney say "Good Morning! Good Morning!" For those of you who don't know, Courtney and Kerry are some of our very best friends that live a few doors down from us. They are Kaylor's parents. Oh, and the baby that we were hearing - that was Kaylor!! Anyway, Jonathan and I were laughing like crazy - we could not believe it. It was hilarious and I kept laughing about it all day.

It was really weird, though. It was like we were a fly on the wall listening to their morning routine, which by the way, was very pleasant! They must be morning people, unlike me. Thank goodness we know them and were able to tell them about the unintentional ease-dropping situation later on that day over dinner. We laughed hysterically over it and then spent the rest of the afternoon trying to figure out a way to stay out of each others frequency!


I think that we figured it out, but it still makes for good laughs. It just goes to show, you never know who may be listening in. So, for all of you out there that use a baby monitor, be careful because someone may be listening. Or even if you don't have a baby, maybe you would want to purchase a monitor for your own amusement - just kidding!! Anyway, below are some recent pictures of Jaxon and Kaylor playing on the play mat. They are getting so big!!

Again, please remember to say a little prayer and send good vibes our way regarding his test next week!! I will update again soon!!
