jackson



Jackson is getting so fat. I picked him up the other day and ohhh boy he needs a diet. well I should be walking him more I feel guilty when i look outside and see all these other dog owners walking their dog and theres jackson looking at them through the deck bars wishing he was walking. So last night R and I took him for a long walk and then R took him in the field to through the ball with him. He was so tired out when he came in he just passed out for the night. So I will be walking him more not only to get him in shape but to get me in shape. Also I used the baby Bjorn carrier and baby r usually hates it because he doesn't like his legs separated but he liked it last night. He feel right asleep!

I went shopping and got a new digi!




I went shopping today and got a new digital camera! I love it it's a canon very small light and a big viewing screen! So this was a family gift mothers/fathers day gift which is a great one! here are some photos of baby r!

great weekend


This weekend has been great! We have relaxed and did some work around the house and relaxed more. We cleaned out the garage a little bit, did some cleaning inside, laundry, and had some cook outs. Friday we ate left overs, sat. we cooked ribs they were so yummy, and tonight we had my sister and brother over for a cook out. It was great to just hang out and not have to rush home because of work the next morning. R, baby R, jackson, and I took a drive today which was fun. We went so aurora and then drove on the Montezuma which was cool. It was my first time on that we always drive by it on the thruway but never go to it. I got a little restless because you can only do 15 mph but it was fun to see all the wild life. Tomorrow I am going to get my new camera so I will be sure to post some new pics. Baby R is getting so big everyday he is growing more and more! I cant wait to get my new van I hope it will be next week! I know everyone thinks I am crazy but it will be better for the baby and jackson to fit in on those car rides we take. Plus we are planning on going to maine in the fall and then Hilton Head in the spring so it will be a ton better for those long road trips!

bad at this


I'm bad with writing on here because I never take the time to sit down and just write. Well I'll update you on a few things. Working just one day a week has been great. It gets me out of the house and brings in a little money on the side! I also have been working at my friends consignment shop and thats been fun because I bring baby R. We bought a van. Mazda MPV I like it we needed a new car anyways and why not invest in one that we will need down the road anyways. It's smaller than most vans so I like it. I think we are getting it next week some time and I cant wait. We test drove it with baby R and he feel right asleep so we know he likes it. HAHA he falls asleep in any moving car! Well tonight I'm making some ribs and mac salad so I have to go start to cook I'll up date more later!

crazy busy weekend

So this weekend was busy. Friday night we had our baptismal class which went really well very short and to the point. The couple that lead the class were young and really made the class go by fast. So now we are just going to get that scheduled for some time in June! Then Saturday my sister in-law came in to see baby R for the first time so that was exciting. She left late afternoon and R and I went to get a few golf clubs off craigs list and then rented Charlie Wilson's War. He made me dinner and baby R went down to bed and we just watched the movie and relaxed! The movie was good from what I saw (fell asleep b/c it was past my bed time). Then Sunday we went to Syracuse for the open house. A few of R's aunts came to see the baby and we came home late afternoon. So now I am just writing a few thank you notes and trying to clean my room a little bit and get caught up. Well baby R needs me...

lazy day...busy night

Today baby R and I are just being lazy. I am going to make some banana bread and clean up the house a little bit. I think I may call our friends that had twins right before baby R and see if she wants to do a play date! Tonight we have to go to a baptismal class for the baby. It's only 1 1/2 hours which isn't to bad. R doesn't want to go but he hated our marriage and baby classes but he did them. He is a good sport through them because he knows it's just something that we have to do. I want my baby R to have a religion and not grow up without one. I think it would be difficult to have him decide what he wants to be when he grows up. So tonight my sister and soon to be brother in-law will be babysitting the little stink pot!

busy week


So this week was crazy busy. I worked Tues. Wed and Thurs. and I am so tired. It was 2 half days at the school and one full day in an office. It made my week go by fast but not working did the same to. It was good to go back but I know that I can only work 2 days a week any more I will run myself down. I missed the baby so much when I left him on Wed for the full day. I am so lucky the office was literally 4 min away because on lunch i came home and got the full hour to see him and thankfully he was wide awake! I also am so lucky to have my mom willing and wanting to watch the babe because it would have been really hard to leave him with a stranger. I know he is in great care with my mom. When they are this young they cant fend for themselves and you don't want them to be ignored at all. Well, he is really smiling a lot more and starting to coo. Its so exciting to watch him develop day after day!

lunch with daddy

Today was the first day since we had our son that we had a lunch date with daddy! It was fun we went to this great sub shop down the street from his work. Robbie just sat there and looked at us eat because well he is only 2 months and cant do much but stare at us, laugh, cry, mess his diap diap, roll over, and thats about it. It brought back so many memories of when I was little and would go to mid town to meet my dad for lunch with my mom. I miss those times so much. So yea today is a lil hard for whatever reason I am just missing my dad so much. I wish my son would have been able to meet him. I know he would have been such a great grandpa and I just wish he was here with us ;-( Well on that note I'm going to see my sister for a little bit.

mothers day

So it was my first mothers day! It was a great day we woke up early took a drive to 'cuse saw my in-laws then back home to cook dinner for my mom then finally to end the night to my aunts to see my grandma! busy day but it was a great one just hanging out with my husband and son and then the family later on in the day! My husband and son got me and arm band for my nano and then we are getting a digital camera that will be both my mothers day and his fathers day gift! I was looking at my son yesterday and realized how much different he looks. He got 4 shots last Thursday so I think it made him grow up a little.....I am not looking forward to his apt. in July because then he gets 5 and he hates them. I def. will be giving the Tylenol right after or maybe even before. I wish he was old enough to give him a big ice cream sundae to make him feel better!

finally on here!

Thanks to my best friend Heather who created this for me I will now be able to blog about the baby and other things on here! And I can call her my best friend because I will always keep in touch with her even though I left her in the office all by her self! First I'll start by saying I've been married one year this past April and we already have a wonderful baby son Robert James who is 2 months old! He came 3 weeks early but was well worth all the stress we went through. I love being a mom/wife it's definitely different and your world changes a lot. Things are put into perspective and you know what to worry about and what problems to let go of. After my dad passed away almost 2 years now :-( I thought I knew not to sweat the small stuff but now I know that life is way to short to let the little small stuff bother you. I just enjoy my husband, son, and family while I still have them all! My son is already getting bigger each day. He went to the doctors on Thursday and weight 11lbs and 14oz. We took bets and my uncle guessed it right on the dot. His prize should have been having him over night the same day because wow 4 shots in a lil baby does a number on him! Here is a video of my son rolling over....yes he is growing way to fast for me!
