Jack-isms

  Jack is growing up so fast. I know everyone always says they just grow up before you even realize it, and its so true. A customer told me today that he really looked like the big brother now, and its like over night he has changed so much!

He is my stubborn-life of the party child and I love that, most of the time! It can be trying, but I would not have him any other way.

I am so afraid if I don't write these things about him down I will quickly forget. J and I lay in bed at night laughing at him and all the things he says during the day.

- He is so into NASCAR. Don't ask me how on earth that happened, but he is. Kyle Busch is his favorite and he is quick to tell you that. Pop found a Kyle Busch hat, thankfully! He can name about 15 of the drivers 1st and last names and tell you who came in what place in the last race (seriously, where did this child come from?)

-He told J the other night that he was squeezy! We asked him what that meant and he just squeezed his side and said  "See, I am not squeezy, but Henry and Daddy are."

- He tells everybody that his momma's baby is a girl and her name is Maggie Cake. I don't know why he thinks its not his sister but just his momma's baby! HA!

-He is so into his TV shows and asks me each morning did his daddy tivo his shows today

-He told me he loved to watch me work! HA! I guess I do that a lot!

- He will get his "computer" and sit at his lap desk with a piece of paper and pen and talk to people about their shirts. He will ask them if they want polka dots, or his favorite color orange.

- He is loving...green olives, pepperoni, string cheese, chocolate milk, orange chips (Doritos) His favorite color is orange and he would much rather play all day in his pjs than get dressed.

-He loves cooking with J and playing any sport especially if it involves going outside!

5 Years

  Its hard to believe that 5 years have passed since I became a mom. And little did I know that God planned this to be my 1st Mothers Day has a mom of three. Its a journey I often take for granted, become easily frustrated with, yet its the most rewarding and amazing job on earth. I am thankful for each day I get to stay home with my sweet boys is amazing!



Happy Mother's Day!!

More Potty News

  Jack is still continuing to use the potty. We are still doing pull ups and we have had times that he did not make it in time, but at least he has done both numbers EVERYDAY for 3 days in the potty!! He even went at school yesterday which was HUGE considering they can not really help them much!



I guess that $30 worth of candy and treats from Wal-Mart was so worth it!

Big News

  I never intend to take week long blogging breaks, but sometimes there are things that I have to put on the back burner, and usually blogging is what gets the boot. 

Anyway I could not forget to remember this HUGE news! It probably doesn't mean we are done wit diapers or that we won't have accidents or that there is not still a road ahead of us, but Jack did both numbers in the potty tonight! We clapped and gave him lots of praise and he got a pretty big toy for it too. Of course we will now switch over to candy and hot wheels, but he is stubborn and I knew when it finally happened (and it did) we would need something to really grab his attention...lets hope it worked!

Birthday Weekend

  Since J's birthday was on Friday he decided that he would like to spend the weekend in TN with the Downs. We call it our weekend home and favorite vacation spot! There is plenty to do, lots of company for the boys, and we all enjoy way to much good food and each others company. 

 
Jack was sooo mad when we left Sunday night. He kept saying I want to stay with Aunt Shan forever! HA! He was really tired, but I think given the option he would have stayed in a minute!

We missed seeing J's grandparents while we were there too. His grandmother fell last week and was not up to doing a get together on Sunday, so we will just catch up with them next time.

J had a great birthday weekend complete with all of his favorite things. Looking forward to his next 30 years!
