Toddler Voice

I love Jackson's little voice. I remember thinking how I couldn't wait for him to be able to have conversations with me.

Today, the way he said "Mo Ched Bun-ee, pweese" (more cheddar bunnies, please) was hilarious. Only a mother could understand him right now. Most people would be like, what?!? However, after he says that, he usually takes his hand and bounces it in the air like a bunny hopping and makes a "boing" noise.  He loves Annie's Cheddar bunnies more than goldfish. I am fine with that.

The way he asks to go potty is quick to miss. He nonchalantly says "pee in potty" and I have to be paying attention to get it. Then, of course, it is a wonderful time of dancing and sticker time when the time is completed. However, I forget that he can communicate with me and I have to pay attention. 

I know that "why" stage is coming up next. I can say this now, but I am ready and okay with it. It is my time to explore the answers with him and help him grow and understand a situation. I am going to be a full time SAHM and I absolutely cannot wait until I have that individual time with him. 

In other news, here is a little artwork project we created this morning. He repeatedly said in an amazed voice, "Bubbles." It was darling. 

5 days on

Today start my 5 days on my Starbucks shift. I would rather play outside with my son and hubby all day.

We went to a birthday party at lunch and then went to Callaway Gardens after nap. It was lovely.
It is supposed to be raining, so I guess the outside thing wouldn't work, but that still doesn't make me want to go to work outside the home.

3 more weeks. 18 days to be exact. :)

Off to get ready to go to church. I love our church.

our faces do not lie

We were outside the entire day!

vitamin D overload.

Birthday Party

We are going to a brother/sister Birthday party this morning. I will be the party photographer, so Ben and Jack will arrive when the party starts. I am going to get there a little early.
I am looking forward to some normal family time today. It will actually feel like a Saturday. :)

2 hours 70 degrees

Jack and I spent 2 hours outside on this beautiful afternoon. It was the perfect temperature in our shady back yard. We hung out with neighbors, played, and enjoyed ourselves. I was sad that Ben was not here, but we have the next two days together!

Now, ice cream and a movie!

Outside fun

I have set up a plethora of outside activities for us to enjoy on this beautiful afternoon.
Going to have some fun with my sweet boy!

End to my time at Starbucks

Wow! I told my manager that my last day at work would be May 15th. Since then, she is scheduling more hours that I have ever worked at Starbucks in 2 weeks. I just finished a 6 days straight shift. Now, for next week, I am working Sunday-Thursday. I am thankful I get a nice paycheck at the end of all of this!!

I can't believe we have 23 days left until Graduation and my Birthday!
