The little joys in life



Well after a night of little to No sleep (thanks to a teething baby boy) the cutest thing is when he wakes up in the morning and sits up in bed (yes he sleeps with me in the bed) and starts tapping on my back (or face, depending on which way i'm laying) to wake me up to turn on his cartoons and place him on the floor so he can crawl over to the mirror and play with the baby in the mirror (himself) and crawl all over the room and play with whatever was left on the floors from the night before. Jackson is the cutest baby i have ever seen (yes i know i am his mother, but serioursly) he will wake up and crawl all over the bed and make sure that i am completly awake when he is ready to get up... even when i am not. and wants to play and just starts talking up a storm (and when i say talking in mean just babbling (he is just 7 1/2 months old))... then we come down stairs to play with all of our toys and all of the dogs!!! I have never seen a baby laugh so much as Jackson when the dogs are running around and playing with toys. he laughs and laughs, which i have to say is one of the best sounds in the world. so we come down and he wants to walk all over the living room so he goes in his walker and runs i mean RUNS around the house like a crazy person. hahahaha. he is chasing the dogs and making them run around, which makes him laugh even more, and gets him even more excited. I have to say that i am going to miss this like crazy when i start teaching in a few days... i think i will probably cry a little on my drive to work... its a nice 45 min drive from my house to the school... thats a lot of tears!!!!! Hopefully i can dry my eyes and make me look somewhat decent for my first day in the classroom... my students won't care what i look like ( i dont think) i think i will drive very fast back home to pick him up from daycare. but not to fast... cant afford any tickets lol... I am going to miss so many things that i take for grated right now:

1: playing with him on the floor

2: watching him crawl and pull up on everything that he can find

3: telling him not in the mouth 1,000 times a day

4: changing his diapers (yes i know your thinking how can you miss that) but i will, now someone else is going to be taking care of my son

5: leaving him in the care of someone i dont know is the scariest thought in the world (i dont leave him with anyone ever)

6: being able to just watch tv with him and be lazy

7: feeding him and having him make a mess and me getting upset and then calming down and laughing about it

8: just being with jackson all day everyday

9: getting his hugs and kisses

10: getting my hair pulled on a million times a day and loosing all those baby fine hairs that he somehow always manages to find and pull out


I dont know what else i am going to miss but im sure it will be a lot harder than i can even imagine. im sure that it will be ok, since i use to work in daycares, and other moms have been able to do it for centeries before me (well you know what i mean)


Oh get this!!!! we went into the daycare that i am going to be leaving jackson at (no names) but it is a really nice daycare and Jack and i picked it out together before he left so in case i got the job i wouldnt have to find a daycare on my own. i go in to drop off the paperwork and the "director" says:

"oh you use to work for the other daycare right."

" yes, why?"

"well we have to call and check because i was told there was a restraining order against you and your husband"

"Um i dont think so, would we know if we had a restraining order against us?????"

*a few minutes and many phone calls later

"She said everything was ok and that it was against someone else. Ok so lets get everything set up for you guys"

*now she said this last line like she hadnt just been treating us like we had a bomb strapped to us and we were going to do some harm....


Now i love this daycare and i didnt want to have to try and find something else. but i really hope that they can let it go and the fact that i worked for a different daycare that was owned by the same people... now tell me if that makes any sense... oh well its all taken care of and no harm was really done...


Looking back all i can do is laugh at the whole ordeal... it was just so random and not us!!!



good news about the daycare was when we went to the room that he will be in the 8-12 month room (because he is so moble) he wanted to be put down and went straight over to all the toys and the other kids and played with the toys and had no problem... now lets see if he is the same way when he realizes that mommy is not in the room anymore...



Jackson is starting to say Mama more and more and now its more than just when he cries!!!!! sorry daddy mommy wins!!!!! Love you!!!
