Playing catch up

So despite the fact that he is already here I thought I should post about the 3rd trimester. It is the longest time of your life. No seriously, I felt great all the way till the end. The day before I was admitted to the hospital I was cutting the grass and working in the yard. I was so bummed when my due date (april 28) came and went with no Jackson. I took that last week and tried to enjoy time to myself. But then the day came when he was born. The first night home he didnt sleep until that morning. the next day I learned how to swaddle and it saved our lives!! I will post my birth story later.

Fast Forward

Ok, so I started my blog back in January and here it is September 2 and now Jackson is here and 4 months old. Maybe it is because I was never any good at keeping a journal or diary that I always thought about my blog but forgot to post. Maybe I am boring or lazy or some of all the above. In any case... here I am back for some more. I can't believe Jackson is already 4 months old, seriously makes me want to cry. I never realized I could love someone so much and I hate how fast time flies by. If I must say he is the coolest 4 month old I have ever seen. There are so many things I love about him and I hate that he is growing up and starting to stop doing them. Like when he sneezes- it is always 2 times and then an 'ahhhh'. How cute is that?? I love how he now can hold onto things and he holds on to my shirt when I carry him. Love that when he sleeps he puts both arms up around his head. Love to watch him and jason together. Most of all I just love him and thank God for him everyday
