Month of May

We went to the Fernbank Museum to see Mythic Creatures. BeBe went with us and we had a blast! May 4, 2011

View from the stroller!

Watch out behind you, Jackson!!!

Look closely, you will see his face!

He was not a fan of my smoke from my candles! Priceless! 27th birthday!

Learning to sit in our Bumbo chair.

When I'm not playing with my son, I'm packing.....or blogging :)

Here are some recent photos!

2 month shots

These photos are the before and after-s of getting his 2 month shots. Poor guy!

I'd rather be playing

I'd rather be playing with this little guy than packing. We will be packing up the truck next Friday! I don't know how I am going to do it. I feed and play with Jackson every 2-3 hours. It is crazy moving with a baby. However, it is better than with a toddler! :)
I know it will all get done! :)

Stuck in my head....singing along to When The Boat Comes In.

This is on his Fisher Price® Soothing Vocal Lullabies CD by Mother's Love.
I call him "my little man."
How appropriate.


Dance to your Daddy, my little laddie
Dance to your Daddy, my little man

You shall have a fishy on a little dishy
You shall have a fishy when the boat comes in

Dance to your Daddy, my little laddie
Dance to your Daddy, my little man

You shall have a coatie and a pair of britches
You shall have a coatie when the boat comes in

Dance to your Daddy, my little laddie
Dance to your Daddy, my little man
Dance to your Daddy, sing to your Mummy
Dance to your Daddy, my little man

Dance to your Daddy, my little laddie
Dance to your Daddy, my little man

When you are a man and come to take a wife
You shall wed a lass and love her all your life

Dance to your Daddy, my little laddie
Dance to your Daddy, my little man
Dance to your Daddy, sing to your mummy
Dance to your Daddy, my little man

Sniff sniff

Jack cannot take the intensity of someone sniffing their nose. This is a common occurrence with Ben. Last night I was feeding him and he jerked off of me (ouch) and got the poochy lip and tears were about to begin. This morning, I forgot this new "trick" and scared him when I did this offensive habit. However, he doesn't mind Ben's snoring......

We are moving!

Ben got accepted. Into the nursing program at LaGrange College for the Fall 2011! Ben also received the Sims Scholarship for a tuition free schooling if he commits 2 years to the local hospital. Oh course we will! So, we will be in LaGrange at least 4 years. We decided to look at buying a house because it probably would be cheaper to buy and it would be a great investment.

We have never owned a home! So, we decided to meet our realtor Saturday, May 7th. She was going to start by showing us 3 houses. We met her at 518 Jefferson Street. We pulled up in the driveway of 520 Jefferson street and started to yell! Our neighbors would be some of our dear friends!! How amazing! What was even better was that the house was perfect for us! We looked at the other two and kept going back to 518. Monday morning we called to get pre-approved. By Saturday May 14th, we were in her office signing an offer to send to DASH. More on DASH later. Monday, may 16th-they accepted the offer! Wow! Going from looking at houses to get accepted...whew!

Now, to pack while Jackson sleeps is always a challenge. It is coming together slowly. I have a lot to throw out and get rid of to move into our bungalow home!

April 23-May 3rd. Watch me grow!!!

May 1st: Jackson was dedicated at Grace Fellowship Church!

Jackson's first bath in the bath tub. He is not too sure about it, but didn't cry like he had been on his other bath foam tub. May 2nd.

Grace got to meet Jackson for the first time on April 30th. She loves him so much!

Jackson sure does love his Ne Ne. (taken May 1st)

All of the grandchildren together for Ne Ne's birthday!!

Kisses from cousin, Grace!

I do NOT like the vacuum! May 2nd.

I really like my mobile! April 26, 2011

I got sick with a virus and had to go to the ER at Children's Healthcare of Atlanta. They took care of me and even gave me a stuffed bunny because it was Easter! April 24th.
My cute Easter outfit. I wasn't feeling good that day, but couldn't express it to mommy very well.

April 22nd. One month old today!!
