Happy Easter!

Jackson was not too fond of his Easter Bunny but enjoyed playing w/his Grandpa and Uncle Todd. We had my parents and brother's family over today and Burt's mom it was great to see everyone and catch up.

I Live for the WEEKENDS...

Today was wonderful despite the late evening snowfall. Jackson and I made a visit to the library he had so much fun cruising down the aisles. At one point, I caught him on his tummy on the bottom shelf peeking through to the other side at a father and son reading at the table, it was so cute. This evening Jackson brought his coat to me saying bye-bye I think he ejoys getting out like his mom. Burt, Jackson and I visited Jordan Creek Mall tonight and he played for the first time in the play yard, it was a good time had by all!

Gift of Happiness & Priceless Smiles!

It has been a tough week to swallow learning CHE is shutting down. Thank's everyone for the support you have given me this past week. I am truly blessed with the gift of my family which at no cost I would ever trade. On Wednesday Jackson and I took our second walk outside together. Burt and Jackson played in the yard for the first time. He had blast. I have many joyful times ahead regardless of the career path I take. Enjoy the pictures of my two favorite boy's.

Looking for a new JOB...

Today we got the news Citi Home Equity is no longer in business along with Citi Retail. I will have a job until 4/15 and will be given 3 months pay after that. I knew this was coming and have been in search for some time now. I did not think it was going to happen today... I have to tell myself to stay positive.

Girls Just Wanna Have Fun!

Saturday night I met up with some girlfriends to watch the McKenzies. It was a great time. The next day I was feeling the pain. I remember exactly why I gave up drinking now!

I created a Cookie Monster...

This past week I decided to give Jackson some Oreo's. He loved them... I had to put him on a two Oreo limit a bath is a must after he eats them! No more Oreo's as he may have additional allergies other than egg whites. We see an allergist next week. Mamma will have to learn to bake cookies!
Proof Jackson loves his electronics and books!

Kade Snyder is here!

Congratulations Shelly! Jackson has a new friend, we are very excited.

Trip to NW Iowa to visit Kerry and family

Three weeks ago Jackson and I took our first road trip alone. We spent 6 hours in the car both ways and Jackson cried for 2 hours on the way home. We had a good time. Jackson was of course into the remote controls again!

Jackson's 1st Birthday... He is a big boy now!

We had a great time and had a wonderful cake that I was very proud of from Glorious Desserts. Jackson is my little monkey so we did a Curious George theme. Thank you to everyone that shared this celebration with us.

2007 Flew by... Jackson turned 1!

I am finally getting up to speed with our fast paced world. 2007 was a fantastic year as we watched Jackson accomplish many strides from rolling over, crawling, cruising, and now walking. He has 8 teeth and loves remote controls, phones and books (I am hoping I have a bookworm on my hands)!
