Nanny and Paw Paw's Visit

A few days after Danielle left Nanny and Paw Paw came for a visit. We had such a great time with them! Although I have learned not to tell Jackson that Nanny and Paw Paw are coming too far in advance because he can't even sleep well due to excitement. As always they helped us with a ton around the house. They had also made awesome curtains and a cornice and put up wood blinds in Barons room. I'll post pictures of the bedroom soon but I'm trying so hard to catch up that I just wanted to get these on before too much time passed.

Nanny got some great smiles from Baron.



Baron loved being held by his Nanny.



Baron and Paw Paw were instant buddies!

Thanks so much to my awesome in-laws for a great visit! And thanks for making Baron's room so super cute:)

Snow Day!

A week ago Saturday we had yet another awesome snow day. Jay and Jackson really enjoyed playing in the 6 inches. It's still amazing that Texas got this much snow this year!


Baron didn't go outside but I still got a picture of him in Charlie's cute little winter hat.



Jackson all suited up for the snow. He's wearing some very large ski gloves. His gloves are not lined so he wanted to wear "adult gloves."



The beautiful snow!



Jay Adams aka master snow angel designer!



Jackson just threw himself down to try to be like daddy.



Two of my favorite guys!

The Patterson's visit. . .and a few random shots!

Jackson loves to snuggle in any time Jay or I hold Baron.



Jackson loves Emma and this particular day she came by for a surprise visit to take him to the park and to feed the ducks!



Little guy sleeps a lot these days. . .and I'm not complaining!



Danielle, Rachel (7) and Reagan (5) came for a few days and we had such a fun time!



They brought Jackson a pinata and after smashing it the girls were walking around wearing it on their heads declaring that it was the queen's hat. Then they put it on Jackson who became the king. They had such a fun time together.



Such sweet girls I just wish they lived closer. And yes, Jackson at 2 is bigger and does weigh more than Reagan at 5.



Danielle and Baron. Having Danielle and her kids here was so special. After living with Danielle for 3 years at Baylor she's just like a sister to me.



Reagan loves to dress up!



We had a "movie theatre" party in the living room with popcorn and a movie.



Little Bear wearing one of Lennon's cute outfits.



The ladies about to spend the afternoon at the American Girl store at the galleria.



Jackson had to jump in with his friends.



Jackson and Reagan rode around on the 4 wheeler quite a bit. It was so funny b/c whoever was in front would yell to the other, "hop on friend!"



Baron is always excited to see Gaga.



I love that little laugh.


Thanks Danielle for the awesome visit, ya'll are the best!

Easter Egg Hunt

A few weeks ago Adrienne hosted an early Easter party for our MOMS group. Due to issues with Baron nursing I wasn't able to go. However, my girlfriends are so awesome that they made sure Jackson was there to celebrate! All of the other moms have at least one or two kids and they still watched Jackson for me. Jaclyn even drove him and dropped him back at our house. Thanks so much to my amazing friends for helping Jackson at his very first Easter egg hunt!

Jackson was so happy with his eggs!

Lunch time!



I love that these kiddos are going to grow up together:)


Thanks again to Adrienne for hosting, to Jaclyn for driving and watching Jackson and to all of my other awesome mom friends for helping out. I love you guys!

Catching Up. . .

I'm going to attempt to catch up on pictures, however it may take me a few posts!

This is just to illustrate how much my big baby needs his mommy at the same time as my little baby. Often when I nurse or pump Jackson gets a blanket and just lays on my legs to watch tv.
