California Love

Ginger's boyfriend, Michael is a DJ... and apparently Jackson is now too!:) This is the CUTEST picture by far of that morning!

Sadly, California whether wasn't as warm and sunny as it usually is... so we bundled up Jackson for a walk around RSM Lake.

Jackson's already a ladies man... look at him charming the ladies!

Eating the yummy meal prepared by Ging and Michael... what great hosts!!

The 4 of us together again!!

I went back to my hometown of Rancho Santa Margarita, CA for Easter. I got to see a lot of my family and my amazing high school tennis friends... it was SO much fun! I don't have any pictures of my family yet since most were taken with my grandparents camera... I still need to get the pictures. However, I do have a lot of pictures of the times I spent with my friends and of them giving lots of love to Jacks:). Ginger's boyfriend, Michael was kind enough to take a bunch of pictures of us all night... it was great! We got lots of girl talk in and it was just like old times again! Thanks for a wonderful time guys!:) Next time we should all play tennis together!

Say What?

- While watching Caillou (a PBS show) play with his grandma I pointed out to Jackson that he has a grandma too. Later, at the end of the show Caillou's mom comes to pick him up and he shouts "Mommy!" Jackson then looks over at me and says, "I have a mommy too!" and gives me a BIG hug. Hearing him say that is one of the best feelings in the world... I love being a mom.
- Lately when I ask Jackson to throw something away... he takes it literally. He stands a couple of feet from the trash can and throws said item away. Sometimes it takes a couple of tries, but eventually it does end up in the trash.
-Mark was watching a game of football on TV and Jackson was trying to get his attention. Frustrated that he wasn't succeeding, he gave a big sigh, looked over at the TV, ran over and turned it off. Jackson, I know how you feel:).
-Sitting down for lunch at the table one day (something that doesn't always occur since I usually don't eat lunch until he's napping), Jackson picked up his fork, looked at me with a smile and said, "SOOOOOO....".
I think he picked it up from when we all sit down for dinner and Mark and I say, "SO, how was your day?"
-After getting ready one morning:
Mark (to me): Hey sexy!
Jackson (sitting next to Mark): Hey sexy! (although it sounded more like, "Hey sessy")

-Mark: "Whatchya thinking about Jackson?" (after seeing Jacks zoning out in his car seat)
Jackson: "BYU"
-The day before Mark was pointing to my mom and Robert's UTE (U of U) ornament on their tree and while pointing his thumb down said, "BOOOO!!" The next day as part of Jackson's birthday gift my mom and Robert thought it would be funny to give him a Ute toddler basketball... after playing with the basketball for a little bit, Jackson pointed to the Ute logo and while motioning his thumb down shouted, "BOOOOOO!!" Yep. We've trained him well (particularly his dad).
-During nursery at church a leader asked a 2 year old little girl in our class, "Are you hungry?"
Her response: "My body is hungry."
