Mother's Day Weekend

Yes I am that far behind on blogging. This will be my attempt of trying to catch up, so there will be several new post.

Mother's day weekend we went to Atlanta. We had a great time. We went shopping (my favorite part), to the zoo, swam in the Hotel pool, enjoyed good food, and to the aquarium. We tried not to overload the kids so we only did one major thing a day then relaxed at the hotel the rest of the time. Jackson had the best time of all. Juliette really didn't care for the animals nor the fish but she enjoyed the freedom of running around.

Jackson and Juliette gave me a cute necklace with their names engraved on it and 2 pearls. I loved it!!! Jackson is always saying "Mommy, I wuv you!" Juliette is always saying "Momma, Momma". It is the best job in the world, albeit the hardest, being a mommy.

To my mom, I love you! Thanks for showing me a great example of a mom, you!

Last Soccer "Game" of Spring 2010

Jackson's last soccer game was a couple of weekends ago. We drove back from Meridian just in time to make the game. It rained all the way home so i thought it would be canceled for sure. But when we got there it was not raining but threatening. Jackson scored 4 goals. The first goal and last goal of the game. The last goal was because I told him if he played hard and do the best he could do we could go get ice cream. WELL he went into the game got the ball and scored then the bottom dropped out of the sky and it started raining. He ran over to me and said "Yeah we can go get ice cream NOW!!!" But we had to go to the indoor facility to get his medal before we went to get ice cream. I think this year he half way enjoyed himself. Maybe next year he will enjoy it more. YAY JACKSON!!!

GOAL!!!!!!!

There was even pained involved in this game. So he played hard!!!

Fun playing with sister!!!

Way to go Jackson! We are so proud of you!!!!

Jackson with Coach Rob!

This was for Daddy, we knew he would love this picture!!!!!

Fun with Poppa G

I am so behind on blogging!!!! We (the kids and I) went to Meridian a couple of weekends ago. I think it rained all weekend. When we were laving the Taylor's house Jackson and Poppa G got to enjoy the the rain puddles. It was fun watching them.

Spring 10 School Pictures

Here are Jackson and Juliette's School Pictures. I will be sending everyone who usually gets a copy later this week. Enjoy! As you can see I have got Jackson trained to smile in front of camera but i am still working on Juliette! Sorry about the poor quality, the pictures are scanned then modified.

Juliette - 16 month (almost 17month)

Again wow how time flies!!!! My baby is almost 17 month. She is growing like a weed and talking up a storm (not quite yet). She is talking. She can say dog, momma, dadda, ball, jack, bubba, hampton, more, shoe, mine, ah (her meaning NO),sshhh, hey, bye, nose, eye and she tries to repeat a lot. She is talking way more then what jackson did at this age. If you ask her what a dog, cat and duck says she can give the correct sound. She can identify head, eyes, nose, ears, hands and feet. She is so smart!!! She is running around ALL the time!!!

She has been sick a lot lately. In the past month we have had the croup, 1 fever virus, a stomach bug and we had are vaccinations! Her nose runs like a drip faucet so the dr has put her on Zyrtec once daily.

Her 15-16 month check up went fine. Her stats are as follows:

Length: 30.25 inches - 50%

Weight: 21lb - 25%

Her weight dropped slightly but that was because she had just gotten over the crop and was not eating (she drop a half pound in a week.) Dr was not concerned but said if she continue to be in the small weight we would have to start something to make her gain weight. She had to have 3 shots that day.

She is happy as a lark when she is playing and running around with Jackson. WOW how they love each other. We have been busy. The yellow outfit (12month size) below was given to Jackson by Gran B and he wore it when he was around 9 month. Well here is Juliette in it and she is 16 month. HAHAHAHA!!

More Soccer

Jackson is doing great in soccer, some days better than others!! Another mother told me that she just loved that Jackson sticks his tongue out when he is kicking a goal. LOL!!!! If you have read the blog you know i have pointed this fact out (him sticking his tongue out). I laugh because it has to be an inherited thing because Jonathan does it also. But I am glad someone noticed beside me that Jackson has this quirky habit! GO JACKSON!!!!!

More Swimming Lessons

Swimming lessons are almost finished. Juliette is finally warming up to it and then we go and start putting her underwater. She doesn't like it and it scares me a little also, LOL! Jackson on the other hand is back to loving it and is a fish.

The first time under!!!

"Is it over YET?"
