2009 Airfest

Yesterday, Blake Jackson and I went to the Airfest at Macdill Air Force Base and it was amazing. I have never seen Jackson's Face light up the way that it did. I am going to put all the photos on here. First is going to be of Blake and Jackson.(sorry there aren't any pics of me, but i'm not to fond of pics of myself in the first place right now. Second someone, ahem, me, had to do the picture taking!)
So this is a compolation of Jackson and Blake at the Air Show.


Jackson had so much fun! I know I have probably said that a few times, but wow, that little boy was over the moon with excitement.
He has a few favorite planes now. He likes the F15 Eagle, because it's an Eagle. haha.
He likes the A10 because of the "mouth" on the front of it. He was pretty amazed by that.
He also likes the B52 Bomber. As he says, " It's a BIG PLANE!!"
Here are a few of the planes that were there.

So Blake would probably kick my butt for some of the "not so technical" terms i used, but hey, I don't know that much about airplanes except the names of them, and what branch they belong to.
The Thunderbirds were amazing!!! If you ever have a chance to go to an air show with the Blue Angels or the Thunderbirds, I suggest you go! They do some pretty amazing stuff.
We were at the Air Show for 6, yes six, hours yesterday. We are all pooped today! It was worth every minute though to see Jackson's face light up the way it did.

Looking back.....

Ok, so now that I am having another little one on the way, I am pulling out all of the old photos of little man. I can't get over how much of a cutie he was. I put a slide show together of pics i have handy right now( I'm at work, SHHHHH!!!) and I just love them to death. They are all of different stages of him. Its really fun to see how his looks change, and how big he is getting.
">
Well, I hope you all enjoy the pictures. A lot of them are from our trip to disney world, just because I think that they are so darn cute and show his personality the best!!
I am going to be taking a lot more this weekend because of the air show we are going to. We re all very excited!!! Jackson keeps on reminding Blake and me that we are going to the Air Force Base this weekend to see the purple airplanes. I have no idea where he got the purple part, but he insists there are purple airplanes there. haha!!!
Update on me, ya know, the preggo one......
I am feeling good, almost out of that first trimester. it will be 13 weeks next Tuesday, and that is supposedly when you are officially out of your first trimester. All I have to say is, Thank God!!!!! I am getting my appetite back, but some type of food just does not sound good at all, that is for sure. I am having the weird cravings, but then again, not so weird for me. Pickles are awesome, I love them, but that is the only salty thing im craving. I want more fruit this time, nectarines are my absolute favorite right now.
OH and just to let EVERYONE know, I will not be putting a picture of my belly on here. Thanks, but no thanks!

Monday......Big Huge Sigh...

So I don't normally do this, but I just feel like I have to with this one.

This is one of the few blogs that i really follow, almost stalk, every day! I love McMamma to death. She is a stay at home mother of 4, and a very accomplished photographer, and is just funny as heck.

Well, her youngest is only 4 months old. Stellan is his name. He had some troubles in the womb, and they told her that he was not going to make it. Well, he did, but now he is having some big issues and is really sick.

Please go to this blog if you are interested and just let her know that you are thinking of her and her family. I could not imagine being in her shoes.

Other than that, i know there are some of you out there chomping at the bit for new pictures of little man. I will get some on here tonight or tomorrow, i promise!!!

Under the Weather.

This past couple of weeks have been very very hard on all of us!!!! First, I got really sick last week, and had a horrible cold, well, what I think was a cold. I was miserable. Because of my current "condition", I can not take any type of over the counter cold medicine. Ugh, let me tell you how much i take that stuff for granted.
Well, then Jackson got the flu, which was no fun. We have the expierence of cleaning out my car with vomit. Ugh, another thing I dont want to do very often. Not so glamorous. lol.
But, let me tell you how much fun we did have at the Strawberry festival!!! It was a great time had by all!!!

Here is Jackson and Blake getting ready to watch pig races!!! it was a blast! Those little piggys can run!!!

This was the sign for the Travelin' Pig Races that we watched. Is that not a hoot? I mean, who would think that would be a livin for people? Oh, and do you know what those little guys chase after? Oreos!!!

Here is one of the cute little guys before we raced! isn't he adorable?

This is one of my favorite reasons for going to the strawberry festival. They have some of the CUTEST things to purchase! There is a little bit of something for everyone, Seriously! My husband has as much fun shopping and looking around as I do there. I got this bag there. I love love love it. It is supposed to be a baby bag, but I am already using it as a purse. HAHA.
last but not least, Jackson got so tuckered out at the festival, this is how he spent the last 1 hour of it.

What a cutie!!!! lol. He was great, and we had an awesome weekened.
