Corn  Maze!!

Chillin'


On Monday we decided to check out McLeod Farms outside of McBee, SC! They had a corn maze and a pumpkin patch! The corn maze was really fun! The only problem was...in order to stay on track..we had to answer questions about USC Baseball...not good for BULLDOG fans!!! Thank goodness for a good map reader..and GOOGLE!!!!

Daddy's Little Caddy!

On Sunday we decided it would be fun to go for a round of golf! Well..Gregory golfed..Jackson and I cheered on! Of course..Jackson delayed our trip by 3 hours because of his long nap!!! He plays so much in the church nursery he is just worn out! He even slept through lunch! So I packed him some fruit and a cheese quesadilla and we were off!!
Jackson had SO much fun out on the golf course! I have a feeling in a few years it will be some special bonding time between Gregory and Jackson..and that thought just makes me smile! I love my little family! As I was on the golf cart..holding Jackson..I realized how much our lives have truly changed..and for the better! I am so thankful everyday that God has blessed us with such a happy little boy!

Baby Dedication!

Me and my boys!!


We had our little man dedicated this past Sunday!! It was such a special service and I am so happy that our parents could be there with us to celebrate this special time!!! I love the top picture..As soon as Rev Kev handed Jackson the bible..he immediately tried to eat it :)

So Many Milestones!!!

So proud!!!!



Jackson loves his watermelon!!!

Jackson is just growing up way too fast!!! He has been hitting so many milestones lately! He can crawl, stand and feed himself! We also have his first tooth..and ear infection!! All within a span of a few weeks!! I am still in awe in this little baby! He is so happy and just fills me with so much joy everytime I look at him (ok..maybe not so much joy at 4 am!).

4 months?!? Already!!!


Wow..these past four months have absolutely flown by!! Jackson's 4 month appointment went great!! His Dr. thinks he will be an early walker! I have to say..I absolutely LOVE being a Mom..I didn't think it was possible to enjoy it as much as I do! I just catch myself just staring and smiling at my little man! It is so fun watching him figure out new things!! His legs now reach the floor in his bouncer and he LOVES playing in it! He rolls over..talks..laughs out loud! His little personality is coming out! It is just adorable!!!

Jackson Long Legs



Poor child is going to have my problem...really long legs!! lol!!! This is a 3-6 month outfit!!!!!!

HELP!!

Like any baby..Jackson has quite the blowouts!!! This is my favorite story so far!! I was about to start making some cubed steak..so I was just about to start flouring the meat when all of a sudden I hear HELP!!! Gregory was changing Jackson's diaper..and it went EVERYWHERE! Of course I came in and saved the day ;)

Welcome Jackson Liam!!!











Wow...I can't believe it has already been 3 months since my little man finally decided to make his appearance!! Here is Jackson's birth story!!
I was due December 3..and he was born December 9..needless to say we were ALL more than ready!!! I had a doctors appt on Wednesday (Dec 8)..obviously past due my Dr. suggested we sweep my membranes to move things along! I was perfectly fine with this because I really didn't want to have to deal with an induction. My appointment was that morning. I met Gregory for lunch afterwards and also went to PetSmart! Then I decided I better pamper myself...and I got a mani/pedi! My toes were bright blue of course!! I was feeling good all day..no noticeable difference..then..at 8:00 pm on the dot the contractions started!! Gregory of course was called to a derailment about an hour away..I knew as soon as he left that I was going to go into labor that night!! My contractions started off 10 minutes apart..my Mom was actually on facebook and I was talking to her and telling her I thought I was having contractions!! I decided I had better call Gregory..and good thing I did because within 40 minutes my contractions were already 5 minutes apart!!! Gregory made it home..I finished packing and he grabbed a quick shower and we hit the road!!
Our house is about 25 minutes from the hospital..wow that was a long ride!! I was so ready to be there! We arrived at the hospital at about 10:00 pm. Of course they were slam full that night so I was sent to a sort of triage area where they checked my progress..then told me I had to wait until there was a change..even tho this was my first time..I KNEW I was in labor! I told Gregory I was not leaving that hospital!! lol!!! After about an hour they finally moved me to a L & D room! I had to wait for fluids and my blood work in order to get an epidural..that was a long wait!!
During the middle of a contraction...my OB/GYN dr walked in (needless to say my eyes were clenched closed..I had NO IDEA!!!)...so as soon as the contraction was over..there was my dr in my face! lol! All I could do was laugh! He just said "I am thinking you want an epidural!"..my response..YES!!!
Once my epidural was in..it really was smooth sailing..I could have slept but I was just to excited to sleep! At about 4:30 am I really started pushing! Another funny story from the delivery room....I was SO HOT! I just needed air in my face..well there really wasn't anything to Gregory started fanning me with the bedpan! Now looking back..this was hilarious!!! The Dr was just laughing saying that was a first in the delivery room!!
Finally at 5:39 am Jackson Liam made his appearance into the world! I can't even describe the emotions that went through me! I was just so happy!!! I cried and I even think Gregory got a little teary! He is the most precious little boy and I am so thankful to have him!
