rain rain go away...

Where did my spring weather go? Where did March go? Where did my baby boy go?

We have been hanging low this week; helping out at Jersey Mike's (they raised $2,500 for the Red Cross on Monday!), catching up on some house cleaning (lots of showings-come one people!) and getting Jackson prepped for a weekend with his grandparents. Charlie and I are headed to Charleston for the annual Cooper River Bridge Run. I was in more shape last year when I walked it 7 months pregnant, whoops. What I am really excited about is some time with my main man, serious good grubbin, a few drinks, and maybe even a little Club Trio... But I will surely miss this little monkey, my back-will not.

Laundry time, do I have to do everything around here??

holy...

stinky dookie. There is really no other 'pg' way to say it. And I hate the word 'poop' so don't recommend that. Jackson wins for the stinkiest dookies in this house by far. I can usually handle it but this morning I had some gagging going on. It is unbelievable that a 10 month old can do that. I kind of want to do an experiment and only drink 32 ounces of warm milk along with pureed 'vegetable beef,' maybe some peas, a strawberry breakfast bar and a pound of puffs for the day - just to test it out. I think I will wait until I am 90 and living with Jackson, pay back, and I doubt my booty will be this cute.

they say its your birthday...

march madness!

Our March Madness brackets were cut a little short around here. Coach Jackson got in some good belly laughs watching his dad jump up and down for John Henson while it lasted.

10 months!

YOU ARE MY SUNSHINE!

a year!

I have been blogging for 1 whole year now and I think some people (besides my parents) actually read it! I really do enjoy blogging and already like looking back on how much Jackson has changed my life. So thanks for reading. And if you do check it out then you should become a 'follower,' humor me people...

growing

Jackson Arthur Farris is growing into a little boy right in front of my eyes, and a mama's boy at that! His comfort spot is in my arms, sucking his thumb and twirling my hair. Whenever someone else is holding or playing with him and I walk by he reaches out his hands for me. It melts my heart every single time. He likes for me to put him to sleep (I personally prefer his dad to do it) and wants me to get him whenever he wakes at night (I definitely prefer his dad...) and likes to hang on to me the entire time in between. It can drive me crazy at times but I miss him after I put him to sleep every single time!

afternoons

Everyday around 5:00 I start to watch the clock. It is about that time that I am in need of some adult conversation, Jackson needs some good daddy laughs and Greta needs a nice long walk... I am a very blessed mama!
