seventh heaven

Gah, this kid.  With a (toothless) smile that would melt the coldest heart, endearing chocolatey eyes, and the lushest lashes, Axl Phoenix never fails to astound us with his preciousness.  These months have absolutely flown by, but our family is so much more beautiful and complete and full of love. 

 sweetest, happiest little thing ev.

 ears!

 classic Axl

 it seems this silly boy's always got that tongue out

Axl moved from sitting up for a few seconds at a time for most of the month of April, to mostly sitting all the time this month.  We saw an ENT for his reflux, and Axl's voice box looks great.  Such good news!  He's now on an adult dose of prevacid, though.  Poor kiddo also has another nasty set of ear infections.  Still sweeter than ever, though!  Still no teeth, but although the pictures don't show it, he's getting more hair! Still red and fuzzy...my mom's betting it's curly, and if his lashes are any indication, she's dead on. 

I'm writing this post early and scheduling it to post automatically because on Axl's actual 7 month birthday, we'll be showing him the beautiful Gulf of Mexico in FL!  Woohoo for family vaca!!  Photographic evidence to follow, for sure!

hilare and presh.  the both of them.
