Blessed!

I've spent most of today and yesterday thanking God for all he has given me.

I am so truly blessed. I get to spend most all of my days home with my perfect son. And am able to go and do as I please. I'm getting to be mother and wife I've always dreamt of.

I can just cry at the drop of a hat... (that's really nothing new)

I'm just holding my son a little tighter, giving a few more kisses and a lot more "I love you's" today.

Oh and I also whipped up no bake cookies my mom used to make as kid!!

Oh, and I'm just now getting used to the phone app and don't know how to place pictures where I want them! Sorry!

Everyone have a wonderful BLESSED day!!

6 Months

So I would love to tell you that Ive been doing all kinds of awesome stuff and staying super busy and that's why I haven't blogged..... But that would be a lie. Who knows what Ive been doing?! Feels like my sweet boy has been sick forever and all I do is laundry, cook, clean and repeat.

This last Wednesday Jax woke up super stuffy and running a low grade fever so we went to the doctor, where she told us he had a cold. She gave us a script and said this should help but wont cure it......(dislike)... So now its Thursday and were still taking the drops and still snotty...

Yesterday was Jax 6 month well baby. We had shots of course(yuck) and he almost always runs fever. Hunter went with me to help me battle wal-mart, thank goodness and before we could even make it home the fever hit. 100.8 ish.. so we do Motrin.... 3 hrs later 101... so we do Tylenol.... this fever was on a mission and it made me a nervous wreck!!! It finally broke around midnight.


Oh rewind to last Monday.... we were going to start "crying it out" because in the nights before Jax was up every 45minutes to hr. Unacceptable...... So we decided to go ahead and put him in his room in his crib for the first time also... (there was no way we could let him scream in our room and hunter get up for work the next day also)

ANYWAYS...... He did FANTASTIC! The first night was only up twice i think and only ate once! It was great! He has done great every since!! Usually only up once! And that's for a diaper change and a snack! So were usually back asleep in 20 minutes or less! This momma really needed her sleep! By putting him in his room though that has moved us to the guest bedroom next to his.(I couldn't handle being across the house)

What I guess I was getting at is he was up a few more times last night!!!

And somehow with all this extra sleep Ive been getting I'm still so tired!

Here are a few pic's of what we've been up to! My nephew also had his first dirt bike race!
