"Time for your 'check-up'"!

 

Jackson got his flash light and climbed up in his daddy's lap and said, "Daddy. It's time for your check up! Let's look at your eye. Looks good! Look at your nose. Looks good! Look in your mouth. Looks good! Now let's check your heart. Sounds great! Now that's your check-up!"

 

Smart boy. Future doctor? :)

A little gardening...

 

Jackson and I took a trip to Lowe's (not for flowers), and Jackson saw this orange flower pot and wanted to plant some "fowers". We took a trip around the garden department and decided on the "green one" and the "purple one". Then, we came home and Jackson helped me pot them. They turned out pretty cute! And my helper is pretty darn cute too! :)

What's wrong with this picture?!

Typical shopping trip with Jackson....

Tornado Warning!

 

So we have had one stormy spring and even summer this year. It has rained WAY more than it usually does this time of year in The South. And, when it's stormy outside, it means we have a stir crazy little boy who desperately wants to get outside to play!

 

One such Sunday, we were under a tornado warning and we had to improvise! We spent the afternoon outside in the garage, making houses out of boxes and drawing all over the place with sidewalk chalk!

 

We know how to have a fun time even in bad weather! Don't you love that little smile peaking out his "window"? :)

Late night!

 

Jason was out of town (for something...hunting I believe), and Jackson just refused to go to sleep. I tried to get him to agree to go to sleep in my bed, but he just wouldn't have it. So after a few hours of begging and playing his game, he finally gave it up. And if you can see the time on the clock, it was WAY past both of our bedtimes!

Lowe's run with Poppa!

Poppa, you might want to get a price check on that before you buy it! :)

He's pretty cute, but he's expensive! :)

Park Time!

He loves the ducks!

 

 

 

And he stole his mama's shades! He thinks he's so cute! :)

Playing games in the dark!

Easter Sunday - 2014

Easter Sunday - I woke up way before the boys did because I was excited to see if the Easter Bunny came to visit Jackson.

 

 

 

 

Once I got the boys up and moving, Jackson got to check out the goodies the Easter Bunny left him in his basket.

 

 

Then we got all dressed up and headed to church in Oxford with the Moorman family.

Look at that handsome fella! He sure has grown up a lot over the last year. :)

 

 

 

 

After church we took family pictures....

 

Now isn't that a sweet picture? Oh, but if only it was as easy as it looks to capture that photo! :)

 

Several "outtakes"; sadly, not all of them. Jackson did not want to cooperate. Who is surprised? :)

 

 

He much preferred to run around instead of posing!

 

 

 

Grandparents with all of the grands!

(And one great grand on the way! Megan and Will are expecting a baby boy in July!)

 

 

 

The girls.

 

 

 

Julia's beautiful family

 

 

 

And next it was time to Easter egg hunt! Marlie, Liv, and I colored some eggs after lunch, then we let Jackson do some hunting! :)

 

 

 

"I found one!"

 

 

 

He searched and searched, then he said, "That's enough!" and went back inside. :)

 

 

 

My beautiful, green-eyed baby was wore out after a full day of Easter egg hunting and playing!

 

 

 

 

Backyard Picnic!

So....I know, I know. I am WAY behind on blogging. We have been so busy lately....lots of stuff going on, so I am going to try to get caught up. (And yes, PawPaw, you are going to get several different emails because there are a whole lot of different posts coming your way.) :)

Jackson LOVES to have a picnic these days!

We have one just about every stay-home day lately!

We know how to have fun! :)
