A Week at a Glance

We had a good week. A hike in the woods,

 A break while hiking,

Practicing some letters,

A new neighbor friend for Jackson,

Jackson dressed up for a visit to Yiayia and Papou's house. The second outfit was the next day.

Being goofy,

A casino, and game date night with my handsome hubby,

& a Sunday morning spent crafting with my little guy. 

Life couldn't get any better than this. <3 Enjoy your week!

The Best Wake Up Call {Ever}

I have the sweetest boy in the world. 

At some point in the night, Jackson sneaked into our bed, right in the middle of Kyle and I. I normally hear him come in. Last night, I did not. 

He likes to some times sleep with out a shirt on- like Daddy- and waking up to see his little bare arms with their disappearing baby fat pockets in the middle of the night was priceless.

Around 7:45am, I was woken by a soft sweet kiss on my neck, and the words "hi mamawuv".

I call him babylove sometimes, and one day he responded by calling me mamalove. It melts my heart every time. I adore it. 

Please, let him stay as sweet as he is now. 

Being Mommy

Today is Tuesday, so this is my first parenting post. {Yay!}

I thought it would be fitting to tell all my new readers a bit about motherhood from my view in the world.

//I am the mother of a 3 year old little boy, named Jackson. I'm sure any mother can relate when I say my son is my world. He's my biggest on-going project, and I fully intend to get a good grade on this roller coaster of a project. He is an amazing little boy, full of wonder, and more life than I've ever seen in a person.

//We spend all of our days together, playing, exploring, and learning new things about each other. Jackson is so much fun, and keeps every day different and interesting.

//I never know whether to describe myself as a working mom or a stay at home mom. I work part time as a nanny, but I never have to leave my son. He gets to come to work with me! How cool is that? We really do have the best of both worlds. For now at least.

//During the school year I go to school somewhere in between full time and part time depending on the semester. I major in Elementary Education. Hopefully I will be starting my first year teaching the same year Jackson starts kindergarten. Then we can still enjoy summers together. 

//Some days being a mother is HARD. But I was put on this earth to be a mother. I always knew it & most days I can't get enough of it. It is the hardest, most rewarding job I have ever had. I can't wait to see what kind of person he grows to be. 

I'd love to know what your thoughts on this post are. I'd also love to hear any suggestions for posts you'd like to read about. Please give me you suggestions.
