He's a walking.... a few steps at a time! Last Thursday, Jax decided to just stroll into Taj's room from the hallway.... completely spontaneous! First it stunned me, then I cheered so loud I couldn't believe it! I grabbed my phone to video what I could at the second go- around. He must have taken 6+ steps, and was so giddy and excited that when I had him walk more he kept falling because he was going too fast!
Since last week, he has taken the same number of steps here and there, and then plops down to his knees. He's not in a rush to walk just yet... and you know what, I'm not in a rush to have him walk either. I want to enjoy him crawling and him wanting to be a held just a tiny bit longer. I think we'll have plenty of time to watch him walk and run all over the place :)
our story
It all began on the evening of Nov 29th 2003, at former Chat Noir French Restaurant in Costa Mesa, CA. Brad approached me [Jana] and we instantly connected; it was love at first sight. The next 4 years that followed were a whirlwind of romance, growing pains, and adventures. We circled the globe, traveling to South America, Europe, and Asia. Then one night, Brad surprised me with a romantic beachside proposal. We made it official on August 23rd 2008 with an intimate wedding at a hip art gallery in Laguna Beach. A year later we finished redesigning our home in the beach village of Corona del Mar.
On May 18th, 2010, we were blessed with a sweet little miracle of our own, our baby boy Taj Leon. He stole our hearts and took our breath away! Then, 19 months later, his incredible little brother, Jax Franz, arrived on Christmas morning (December 25th) 2011. What an amazing gift we received! In an effort to slow down the clock and enjoy our beautiful family, in Spring of 2012, we sold our CA seaside home and moved across the country to our dream lake house in Brad's hometown of Bemus Point, a resort village on Chautauqua Lake in Western New York! Even though we are living a more slow paced life, we are living a life far from ordinary!
