Texas Hugs!

Cutest Picture of Everyone!!!

Still sleepy!

How can I get out of doing this?

Hey- it is WAY to early for pictures people!

Why is G-Paws hand there?

Cheese!

Give me the camera!

Hello!!!???

Give me that camera!

Mommy! I want that camera!

What? I learned it from Daddy!

Hang on- I think I am swinging it right....

My in-laws came in town to visit this past weekend. We had a wonderful time! They are great guests to have around and Jack loved seeing his Grammie and G-Paw! He even said Paw a few times on his own. He can try and say Grammie but it doesn't come out right. We went out to eat several times and went to the park with Jack. Grammie and I walked the "big" hill to the park and let Jack play on the jungle gym. He had a great time. He enjoyed swinging and just being outside. He is definitely an "Outdoors" boy. He screams when it is time to go inside unless he is worn out. Grammie and I also took Jack to the mall- we were hoping to get a little shopping done but Jack changed our minds pretty quickly. He was not interested in being in a stroller and he would not walk when I put him on the ground. He wanted to sit and play with the floor and watch the people so we decided after a quick trip we had to head home to see our new clean garage that Greg and G-Paw had cleaned and organized! Thanks again Gary! The next day Greg and G-paw took care of Jack after meeting us for lunch. They took Jack home for a nap so Grammie (Diane) and I got to finish a little shopping. We found a few gifts in our search for flip flops for Gary and we looked at gliders for the baby's room because I hate our current one. We enjoyed the quiet time but missed little Jack Man! One night Diane cooked a fantastic meal with pork chops, mashed potatoes, pinto beans, green beans, and homemade peach cobbler! We were spoiled!!! She also unloaded and loaded the dishwasher before I could help with anything. Not only did Jack get spoiled this trip but I did too! I love my in-laws and we were sad for them to leave. Jack let Grammie rock him to sleep the last night which was HUGE considering he is usually the grouchiest at bedtime! He waved good-bye the next day to both of them and I know a little boy who is going to miss those 2 people along with us! We didn't get to take many pictures because Jack still attacks cameras but we did get a few.

On a side note-Jack had been very sick this past week before Grammie and G-Paw came in town, (he had 103.8 fever!!!!) and I spoiled him by giving him extra hugs and kisses. I may have created a Mommy's boy because since since being sick when I am around he attaches himself to my hip. He is still in this clingy funk and I can not get anything done! If I leave the house he crys but then he is completely fine. It is wearing me out! I love the attention but he literally wants to be at my side to do everything!

Anyway- we are glad he is feeling better and hoping for a long run of no more germs! Hope you are all doing great!

OH!!!! I forgot I have not updated many of you... We went to the doctor a few weeks ago and found out - It is a girl! Jack will have a little sister! I am 20 weeks and feeling large and in charge! The second one for me has been much faster at getting a big tummy! I feel like I look 8 months preggo! I would venture to say I have already gained 15 pounds. Aside from my sweet mother-in-laws cooking- I really don't eat bad! I even asked the Dr. and she said I was on track and that my stomach muscles were recently streched from Jack so with them being so close together my stomach expanded faster. Not sure if that was a nice line or what. LOL Oh well- Dieting can be done next year I guess! :)
