Potty Training...ish

We are trying some potty training in hopes that we will be complete by the time the baby comes, but Jackson has shown little to no interest. He does like to look at himself in the mirror in his Thomas the Train underwear - which stays dry for about 5 minutes. Daddy, always the multitasker, worked with Jackson on his numbers during a potty session. We are not totally discouraged because he is not even 2 1/2 yet and I have heard that sometimes boys are not ready untill closer to 3. I did a painting of my ultrasound of Sawyer. I am trying to make an effort to do everything for baby #2 that I did for Jackson. I have bought a new baby book and the makings for another belly cast.

Getting there...

I had an OB appointment today. Everything looked good. I am 29 weeks now, only 10 weeks to go. I had an ultrasound and Sawyer looks healthy. His heart rate was good as well. I am having another C-Section and it is scheduled for April 8th. He is head up with his feet under my right ribs right now, not the most comfortable position. I am getting big but am enjoying the cool weather much more than I did the heat when I was pregnant with Jackson. In the ultrasound pic you can see his head & chest. He is looking up and to the right. Looks like he will have a giant head like his brother and father.

Florida Vacation

We arrived home this afternoon from a wonderful week in Panama City Beach, Florida with Auntie Punk. Jackson was very excited to fly on an airplane. We went bowling and to Gulf World...twice. Jackson cried the first day when we left so we went back again. He had a BLAST. He touched a python & a dolphin. He got a kiss from a Sea Lion and we saw the dolphin show 3 times. We are home safe now and expecting snow in VA. Jason has been very cold all week but should be home late tomorrow.

FL here we come!!

Jackson & I are leaving tomorrow to go to Florida to visit Auntie for a week. Jackson is excited to fly on the airplane and go bowling in FL. Jason will be in DC doing security for the inauguration for 10 days. This week we went to the new play area at the mall. Jackson had a blast. Jackson & Jason also had some bonding time watching Pearl Jam on TV while Jackson played his new guitar. I think we have a future musician!

Big Boy Bed

Last night was Jackson's first night in his new big boy bed. I was a little scared but he did fantastic. He never got out and called for me this morning to come get him. I hope he stays this excited about it for a while.

New Years in WV

We spent New Years in WV with the Fealys. We got to see snow on the way over the mountain. I'm glad Jason was driving! We also went to Jackson's cousin Lexi's 4th birthday party. We also had a big family get dinner on Saturday. It was great to see everyone.
