Happy Valentine's Day!


Happy Valentine's Day from Jackson! He had is party at school today and his teacher said he didn't know where to start or stop eating! He also made the cutest craft at school with a lot of help I am sure, but they did have him color it. I can't tell you how blessed we are that he goes to such a great place.


Nina, Pop, Brady, and Brittany sent Jackson the cutest lion that shakes and giggles which he has had a big time with, he started clapping when he opened it! We have a pretty low-key day planned tomorrow I am afraid, just hanging out at home as a family. I think Jackson and I will make some cupcakes and and maybe have a heart shaped grilled cheese or two!





Yay! A noisy toy!







Of course the packaging was much more fun to play with!


Me, ready for school with the lion Nina & Pop sent.




I am not sure what I was trying to do here.

The Weekend

Believe it or not, I finally did a couple of things we can report, we made it out of the land of the boring!
Friday night Chad kept Jackson so that Tarinda and I could go see "He's Just Not That Into You". It was one of my favorite books in college and I read it not that long before I met Chad. A few years ago I reccomended it to Tarinda when she was going through a rough time and she loved it too, so it seemed fitting we would go together. I can not tell you how cute it is! We really enjoyed it. It wasn't quite what I pictured after reading the book which was hard to overlook but I think anyone who hasn't read the book would think it was awesome.
Chad had the afternoon off on Saturday so we went to his mom and dad's for the day since we don't get there often. Jackson had such a good time playing with his cousins and enjoying the warm weather it was great.
Sunday was pretty laid back and we just sat home and enjoyed the nice day. Jackson wanted to stay outstide all day which would be less troublesome if he understood the concept of the electric fence, but since he doesn't I spent most of the time catching him and dragging him away from it.
We have a busy week this week but are looking forward to it. Jackson has his valentine's day party at school on Friday and his outfit made it just in time. Then we are looking forward to a nice 3-day weekend at home.

Johnny and I thought this was a really fun game!
Another favorite of me and all my cousins are these batons!
Me, Johnny, and Daddy outside on the deck.







Daddy couldn't figure out why I kept going in the garage while we were playing outside until he figured out I wanted this old exersaucer out.

Boring

I am afraid we are just boring lately! We really haven't done anything worth mentioning lately. Jackson is still so much fun and is changing all of the time. He is finally eating everything he can get his hands on although his favorite would have to be yogos, or "gogos" as he calls them. All that food hasn't helped him grow yet, he is still in his 6-12 month clothes but at least they are getting lots of use. He has been getting good reports from school and has even been sitting still for bible study time which is a miracle! Anyway, I thought I would share a few pictures even though it is nothing to exciting, we will have to find something fun to report soon!
