morning

Some good morning love for your enjoyment.  Happy Leap Day!

homecoming!

We are home!  We came home yesterday, everyone feeling nice and healthy.  Everything went so smooth this time around, one good thing about a scheduled c-section.  The doctor said it was a good decision seeing how big Nash was and how great I had healed from the time before, always a nice reassurance.  I am going to snuggle the afternoon away with this little nugget while I can.  I had already forgotten the sweet smell of a new born.

Great, my doctor said I could go home today. Finally can milk in peace!

 Jackson is not so sure about Nash and is definitely not excited about sharing him with his mama!

Getting fresh for my little brother's arrival.  

Nash William

We welcomed our sweet baby boy to the world on Friday.  He came out hollering, a big ol boy with a head full of hair.  I cannot get enough of him!

9 pounds & 2 ounces - 22 inches

a friendly reminder...

One of my best friends who just had her second, a beautiful baby girl, emailed me this a while back...

All of these, completely true.  But you also have no idea that you can create something so perfect or that your heart is capable of loving something so much.  Bring it on!

Fat Tuesday

We are taking Mardi Gras to a whole new level over here.  Today is Fat Tuesday and I am going to embrace it.  I am thinking easy pot roast, rice, asparagus and brownie pudding for dinner.  Throw Jackson some beads and he will gladly show you his belly, and my belly and Dada's belly and Greta's belly and your belly.

Almost 39 weeks, yeah I was trying suck it in, yeah I intentionally covered my face, and yeah Jackson was already born at this point...

willy-pop!

Happy Happy Birthday to Jackson's grandad - Willy-daddy? Pops? WILLL (the one Jackson has actually said before)...



It looks as if Jackson was lucky enough to inherit some dance moves from the Winslow side of the family, sorry about that one bud.  

7 days...

or less and Jackson will be a big brother!  Yep, next week at this time I will be holding a little baby boy, our family of 3 will be 4, and I won't have heartburn!  This pregnancy really did sneak up on me!

morning routine

Jackson likes to shave every morning.  He also has to put on deodorant (powder fresh), a dab of face lotion, some chapstick, brush his teeth, clean his ears... and when no one is around dive into a little blush and eyeshadow, apparently it taste delicious!
