Flat Stanley

You know you are a mom when you have kid who brings home "Flat Stanley." Jackson was obsessed and needed to take him to at least 3 places. While with us he made it to the Terrel Hills fire department, the bathroom at Walmart, McDonalds and to Sea Island.

We had a great three day weekend. Jackson is now zooming around on his bike without training wheels. Jackson and Harrison spent the night with my parents - Yippee, thank you parents. I got my first night of uninterrupted sleep in 4 months - thanks Shaun. I made banana bread, we went to Gruene and Shaun even made his famous Chicken Marsala. Oh, and the Christmas decorations finally came down, much to the dismay of our boys. In addition, Shaun and I got a date night at Cappy's and I even worked out two of the three days.

Strange how an extra 24 hours changes everything....Here's to the three day weekends!!!

How to make snowballs

Jackson was so excited to do this at school on Monday. He had to tell me all about it. Let me know what you think. 

Happy New Year

Happy New Year to all.

The past few days have been great. Lots of time spent with friends, out doors and just being together. We had a party yesterday and Jackson can now ride his bike without training wheels! An adult only dinner last night (thanks Vanna and Dom) and today, 2 naps, a nice long family walk and dinner at the olive garden.

Getting ready for bed now (10:28pm) and overall this has been a great new years eve...I wont be staying up till midnight that's for sure.

P.S. I had to include this pic of my grandma (she's 92). I love that we got to spend Christmas Eve and Christmas Day with her and all our our family.

We are so lucky!

Merry Christmas

Every year since Jackson was born we have taken pictures with this Santa. Well, just because there are three boys now, we had to continue with the tradition. Happy Holidays everyone.

the latest

Here is a mini update. Jackson was a cute indian at school named Pokey (he picked that name himself). Max loves the sling and falls right asleep in it. Harrsion is a little toot and cute, fun and edible. Jackson had a brownie sale last weekend. The setup, sign, etc. are all his. He even got a few customers. I'm looking forward to time off with my boys...I just wish I could keep my house picked up too!

The Boys and our weekend

These were taken this summer. But they were easily accessed and if you want a blog update, you cant be picky :) (same goes for this crazy underlining...ugh!)

We had a great weekend. My mom and dad took Jackson to fiesta Texas to look at the lights, and spend the night Saturday. So Sunday morning Harrison and I, just the two of us, went to the zoo. It was so fun to just be with him. Then Sunday night Jackson and I went to see the Lion King....it was amazing. Really amazing. 

Have a great week!  

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas...

I know it is the holiday season when we make our yearly trip to Gruene to see Kris Kringle.I had no idea last year (really, no idea at all) that one year later we would be taking 3 boys to see Santa. Yesterday we did just that! It was fun and we survived with all the boys. Jackson told Santa he wanted a whistle and Harrison asked for a piano. Don't ask...

All three even did great at the Grist Mill for lunch. Take a closer look at the picture above to see Max's face. He was not too happy. 

As all our shirts say, "Life is Good."
