Family Trip To Jackson's Orchard

We are very lucky to have such an amazing family!

Sweet Baby Jackson

On 10-11-10 at 12:23am the world was graced with a precious new arrival. He made his entrance quite early. Jackson Blanton couldn't wait to see his Mommy. He is 33 wks. Although he is still in the NICU he is off the vent and breathing with just a cpap. He is a fighter and he is blessed with a wonderful mother. Please remember my amazing friend Erin and her sweet baby Jackson in your prayers tonight. She is truly a person I am better for knowing.

A Village

I am sure everyone has heard that it takes a village to raise a child. I never knew how true that was until we had Millie. I am so lucky to have such amazing grandparents for her. Both my parents and Wayne's parents have jumped right into the childcare scene with us. They are all very involved in her life. She expects them all to be at everything she considers special. Wayne and I really appreciate the fact that we can "leave" her with any of them and have no concerns. She has a blast every time, and the only real fit she throws is when she has to go home. For example this morning I am home lazying around while she is at Dinosaur world with Mammy and Pappy. Alot of parents never get the opportunity to have the morning off. I am glad I have that luxury. It really does take a village.

Our Wonderful Fall Day

We had such a lovely day. It started a little too early, but most lovely days do. We had to leave the house around 8 to drop Wayne's truck at the shop, so Millie and I followed him in the car. We got to the repair shop around 8:45 and they said they would call us in a little while to let us know what the problem was with the truck. We decided to go get breakfast a Cracker Barrel while we waited, then we picked up Beauty and the Beast at Toys R Us ( I had it reserved and with coupons only paid 4.07 OOP for the DVD Blue Ray combo pack). Then they called to tell us the repair was minor and would be ready in a couple of hours YAY!!!! So we hit the park and dollar tree. It was such a beautiful day, and I really enjoyed sitting on the bench at the park watching Millie and Wayne play. It filled my heart. Then when we got home Millie took a much needed nap. When she woke up we decorated the house for Halloween. Millie loooooved it! Then I picked up a pizza and we watched Beauty and The Beast and carved a couple of Styrofoam pumpkins. Such a fun day, I love my family!

My Beautiful Girl!

Today we went on a girls shopping trip with my mom. Before we left I wanted to snap a couple of pics of Millie. Well she ate it up, posing with her hands on her little hips, and moving her hips. She is a true model in training.
