Onesie Pictures

In an idea we borrowed from my idol Martha Stewart.....

We started taking Jackson's picture in a 12 month white onesie, starting with birth. The pictures are going in Pottery Barn Kids First Year Frame. We are so happy we did this...though it did get challenging once he became more mobile. It is something I will cherish forever. Here are they are.......

You brush your teeth.....

Some of you may know the song......go ahead and sing along.....We LOVE Raffi :-)


If you get up in the morning at a quarter to one
and you want to have a little fun,
You brush your teeth ch ch ch ch, ch ch ch ch....

If you get up in the morning at a quarter to two
and you want to find something to do,
You brush your teeth ch ch ch ch, ch ch ch ch....

If you get up in the morning at a quarter to three
and you want to hum a tweedle dee dee,
You brush your teeth ch ch ch ch, ch ch ch ch....

If you get up in the morning at a quarter to four
and you think you hear a knock at the door,
You brush your teeth ch ch ch ch, ch ch ch ch....

If you get up in the morning at a quarter to five
and you just can't wait to come alive,
You brush your teeth ch ch ch ch, ch ch ch ch....



If you listen closely you can here him sing the song.......

Saturday in the park......

I might sound like a broken record but I LOVE where we live. It is so beautiful and waking up here the air just smells different. I love seeing the wild turkeys and deer outside my window...even if the deer love to eat my plants. I love how we can have fun without even leaving the gates. We have parks, trails, lakes and even the river all accessible by walking or golf cart :-) A few weekends ago we took Jackson to the park....not sure if liked it. But memories were made and we took some cute pictures to share with all of you.


These girls thought Jack was quite handsome.



Not really sure about the swing....funny cause that is one of the ONLY places he would sleep when he was an infant :-)



Such a fun daddy....mommy doesn't like heights....ANY heights. I get vertiago looking downstairs at the house.


The goal: One tired Jack-jack :-)

Going to the Chapel...........

Many of you already know that one of my best friends is getting married on October 2nd! I am so excited to be included in this very special day. Can you believe this is my first time being a bridesmaid?? I only been a bride, lol! This last week we went to try on dresses...and we found the ONE! It is the most beautiful wedding dress....I would pick this dress if I were getting married. I just love it. We also picked out the bridesmaid dresses too. They are so pretty. Perhaps one of the best parts is Jackson is going to be Keith and Heidi's RINGBEARER!! I can't wait, he is going to look so handsome. Hopefully he will do a good job. He is going to carry the pillow that Nic and I had at our wedding. Another cool thing is Heidi is going to wear my wedding veil and comb. I love my veil and so happy to see it being worn again. Heidi looked amazing in every dress she tried on. I can't wait to post a picture of her in it. Until then I have heavily cropped a picture of both of us at House of Fashion. As you can see she is going to make a gorgeous bride!


I have nicknamed her "bridi" she is glowing!



Beautiful bridesmaid dresses....next time I put this on...I will be tan and 10 lbs lighter :-)
