Engagment, Good-bye kelli & Bridal Shower

Hey everyone!! March has been a crazy month......I wanted to catch you up on what we have been doing this month. My cousin Kristi got engaged over Valentines weekend. She even got engaged at the Happiest Place on Earth. Kristi is my older cousin (2 of 2) she's a twin, on my fathers side of the family. We are so happy for her and her fiance Steve is great. They are planning for a April 2011 wedding. Kristi and Steve had a celebration with some friends in Folsom. Sorry the pics a little blurry...that's what happens when you give it to a intoxicated person :-)


Me, Kerri, Bride to be Kristi & Kelli


Soon to be Mr. & Mrs.

This month we also had to say good-bye to my sister Kelli, who's fancy new Federal Government job sent her to Texas for 7 weeks to train. She will be back a day before my 3oth birthday.......I think I'm hoping it goes slower than she does!! Nic and I threw her a little good-bye party. Complete with name calling and game playing....we had a blast! Although my game room has some ping-pong ball marks on the wall (thanks Mom!) We are so proud of you Kelli! Jackson will miss his Aunt Kiki!! XOXO

My Family.....love them!!


This month also was my first time hosting a bridal shower. Along with my mom and aunts we threw my cousins fiance a shower. Some of you may not know that BOTH of my cousins are getting married this year...actually one in June and one in July. Ok here is the family stuff...ready, set, go.....My mom's sister Diane has two boys. Oldest Jason, youngest Joshua. Jason is marrying Megan on 6/12/10......then Joshua is marrying Danielle on 7/31/10. The shower was for Megan. It was so much fun! Megan is also a twin and I finally got to meet her sister. Megan is going to make a beautiful bride....but most of all she loves my cousin and they are so lucky to have found each other. Best Wishes Jason & Megan!! XOXO

Finally this month ended with a terrific trip to Tahoe....I will post pictures soon! Hope everyone has a Happy Easter!!

The Little Gym

Nic and I decided to enroll Jackson in a gym type class a few weeks ago. After some research we decided to join THE LITTLE GYM in Folsom. It is an awesome program and we are so happy we can give Jackson this experience. Jackson and I go every Wednesday morning with my good friend Jayme and her daughter Layla. Jayme is also a stay at home mommy and was excited to join the gym. I needed something to break up my week a little and let my little monster...I mean sweetheart burn some energy. Plus Jackson gets to interact with other kiddos his age and gets to listen to someone other than mommy or daddy. The teacher Miss Cindy is GREAT! She is so patient and is great with the kids. Here are some pictures from the 3/17 class....If you want you can check out the website at thelittlegym.com.

ONE year ago.....

I thought it might be fun to look and see what we were doing this time last year. Luckily having all pictures stored digitally made this super easy. This time last year....Jackson was 11 weeks old, starting to smile and lifting his head up and being overall a great baby! Hope you enjoy these......they are so sweet. Have a wonderful Thursday!!



Happy Jack!



Look Mom....I am so strong!



Cute and funny now......so not going to be in a few years :-)

Mr. Giggles

I took this yesterday as Jack was playing with his cheerios like tiddlywinks.......seriously I was laughing so hard! I just love that belly laugh. How cute is this?

I have learned so much from him over the past 14 months....find enjoyment in life's simple pleasures. Enjoy!!
