The New Man in My Life

I was finally well enough to visit the "other man" in my life! Aunt Andrea loves you, Baby Jackson! 

Your Spot

Jaden has found "his spot" in his crib. You can always find him curled up in the right left corner of his crib. I have always loved pictures of my boys sleeping-they never get old!

Star of the Week

This week Jaden was the Star in the Terrific Twos class.

A Mix

Sometimes, it is the little things. Like when Camden says, "Mommy, will you make me a special mix?" A long time ago, I started doing this for him and he still asks for it every now and then. One time he asked for a snack and didn't know what he wanted, so I said, "How about a surprise mix?" He loved it! And it just stuck with us, so now it's our thing. I love sharing special traditions with my sweet boy! (and finding silly selfies he has taken on my phone!)

A Turd in the Tub!

It's all fun until there's a turd in the tub-that was my Facebook post tonight. Jaden was happily playing "swimming" until he looked down and said, Ew!" Like he didn't know he had pooped. Silly boy. He sure loves his time in the tub! "Take a bass, Momma take a bass." is what he will say when he is ready for his bath.

New Year, Old Friends

We spend New Year's Day with our good friends, the Bates'. We had no special plans except for watching the Vols play and eating chili. It is great to have friends that you can not see for several weeks and then spend the entire day together catching up. The weather was so nice that we were able to get outside and play some grass hockey. Happy 2016!
