Shes ready to POP!

 
 My sister who is literally about to POP, wanted me to do some maternity pics for her. We did them on a sunny Sunday in early October. Onsies are personally my favorite baby item. Not only are they easy to slip on and off, but seeing a baby with chunky little legs and a big ole diaper booty in onsies just makes me happy!

 
 She's so happy. She's going to make a great momma. And knowing what I know about having a son, there is honestly no better bond! I think its an unspoken bond. But defiantly one that only a mom and son have. I am happy she will experience it!

 
 LOVE LOVE LOVE everything about this picture. The name in wooden letters and how they just did their own thing on the fence, the onsie and the stripes, the angle of the sun. I just stare at this picture. A lot!

 
 Our Uncle and Aunt live across the street from me and have a pretty cool little set up in their backyard. So we used it for the session and I just love the colors and how everything just fell into place!

 
 Dad is a hunter. Dad cant wait till their son is old enough to hunt with him. Until then, baby is going to be sporting a lot of camo gear! :)

 
 One set of proud parents right there!

 
 Her baby shower was later in the month with the theme "SHES READY TO POP!"

 
 Everyone decorated a onsie for the baby and I have to say that is hands down the best idea in the world! And simple. 4 of her girlfriends and I hosted the shower and between the 5 of us we all bought a package of onsies, some fabric pens. We had fun. I hope they bring a smile to her face when she dresses the baby in them.

 
 Some of the finished projects! Surprisingly found out we have some artist in the family as well!

 
 Gift opening time! My son was in charge of handing her the presents and my step-daughter was in charge of writing everything down.

 
 The hostess gift :) Hands down the best diaper bag ever!

 
 We had a lot of fun planning and doing and getting to know one another. I cant think of a better group of girls to love my sister the way these girls do. She is very lucky to have them in her life!

 
 Jennifer and my goofy step-daughters. They were a huge help that day (and always)

 
 Dad came by to load up the goodies! This baby will always have clothes on his back that is for sure!!

 
Jennifer!
Again, I am so happy for you. Like I said there is honestly nothing better than the bond between you and your son. I have learned in my (almost) 5 years of being Jaxons mommy that there has never been and will never be anything like the relationship him and I have. I only hope you and Archers bond is just as strong! Whether  you go on and have 3 more boys or end up adding some girls to the mix, Archer will always be your #1. I love you!

WE GOT MARRIED!!

My dear-to-my-heart little sister got married. September 4, 2012. To the man she met 6 years ago to the date. Love stories like that make me smile. And all though she was hesitant 6 years ago when i twisted her arm enough and forced her to set up a MySpace, in no time she met her husband. So I like to secretly think I had a hand in all this. After all the whole MySpace thing was my idea ;) Tim and Jennifer,          I am proud of the two of you. You are both very dear to my heart and always will be. Jennifer, you already know that you are the best little sister this girl could ask for. Tim, I have liked you from day one. And over the years I have grown to love you. You are the best person in the world for my sister. (after all she was able to avoid alot of crazies online after y'all met) HA HA!! I wish you guys many many many years of happiness! You guys are amazing together. And the best aunt and uncle to Jaxon. Love always!! Jessica

All is well...and everyone is home...

Jynx came home today. He has a cast over his pins. They ended up finding more wounds that needed stitches so he has 3 different sets of stitches on his leg and his paw is still really swollen. He is on 3 different pain meds as well. And we are still baffled as to what happened. Josh went to let him and the other dog out and came in for maybe 20 minutes...went back outside and Jynx was hurt. We have searched the backyard and garage but can not figure out what has happened. So who knows. Jynx isn't saying either! It was bad enough to have caused some small places to stitch and 6 pins worth. Its really sad. His little throat is dry from where they had the tube in his throat so he cant really whimper. And the other bad thing is, is we were going to take him to get groomed and now we have to wait 8 weeks! O well. I'm really glad that he is ok and it wasn't AS bad as it could have been and hes home now. Thank goodness for puppy insurance!!!!

When I was your age....

It's funny because I ran across this article about the gadgets kids have these days and the things they will not know existed....or even how they worked. A month or so ago I say to Josh..."Kids these days will never know what watching a TV with antennas will be like or how to rewind a cassette tape." Part of my childhood we had a TV we turned on with a set of pliers and would have to adjust the antennas depending on what channel we were watching out of the 5 we had. Caller ID didn't exist. Walkmans were huge!! You researched homework in an encyclopedia. You recorded shows on a VHS. There was actually a time before "reality TV". You never had the want or need to know what your friends were doing every minute of their day. You actually had to remember someones phone number. Neat Handwriting. Swimming pools with diving boards. Waiting for the #1 hit in the movies to make it to TV. Hershey bars in silver wrappers. Having to manually unlock car doors. Playing ou...
