Lately, Saxon has been doing lots of stretching, with both her arms and feet (and well, her entire body). Carey says she’s stretching and growing.

But whenever I’m holding her, a big stretch usually results in some explosive actions in her diaper, which happens to be in my hand. I don’t know who jumps more, me or Saxon. At least I don’t screech like Saxon does whenever gas is passed.

I’ve been testing out my new point & shoot digital camera (Canon SD700) for the last few weeks. I have been pleasantly suprised with the quality of the movies you can make with the video mode. Don’t get me wrong, an Academy Award for cinematography certainly will not be won using a camera designed primarily to capture still images, but it’s still pretty good.

Saxon’s first video (albeit a short 10 second clip) was taken right after a bath when she happy & relaxed.

Saxon likes the water, enjoying her baths from the beginning. But she LOVES taking showers with mommy (or with her aunt ashley), especially the part where the water hits her face!

We had lots of company on Labor Day weekend. Carey’s parents drove down from Wichita, Kansas. Also, Saxon’s “Aunt Ashley” (Carey’s sister) and her husband, “Uncle Mike” flew in from Chicago.

Saxon loved her Aunt Ashley and it seemed like Aunt Ashley kinda liked Saxon. Aunt Ashley’s snarling at anyone who dared to try to hold Saxon when she had her was my first clue. Also, Ashley, kept saying, in her best lawyer voice, “Possession is 9/10’s of the law.”

Ashley’s photos from the weekend are here.
