Keepin Busy

Well, things seem to be going a little better lately. Jackson has his 4 mo. apt. on Friday, which reminds me, pictures will need to be taken soon. I decided to go ahead and do it because I just got the statement from his 2 mo. apt. last week and they covered all but $20. I figured that was not too bad so I'd just go ahead and get it done. He will have to get more shots though :( I am not looking forward to that. Oh well, needs to be done. I wish he was old enough to bribe with ice cream or a sucker though, lol. He is doing great though. Also, I am anxiously awaiting Jan. 14th. Gymboree is finally having their Gymbucks event and I have $75 in gymbucks to use!!! They just came out with some new spring styles that are so cute and he needs some summer clothes. Jackson will look very cute this spring/summer. (I kind of hope that our next kid is a boy b/c then I won't have to buy anymore clothes for that kid, though that is a ways off!) I am also looking forward to mabye taking him to the baby pool this summer and see what he thinks of that! By then he will be about 9 months old. Hope he loves the sun and water like me! Hard to believe that last Jan. 11th I had just found out that I was pregnant. What a difference a year makes. Let's hope this year goes fast!

What else? Hmmm...Chris is doing good, just tired. They have them up really early and going to bed kind of late sometimes. Plus, its just really cold there. A couple more weeks and he will probably be leaving the country. I really don't have alot of time to think about it, Jackson keeps me pretty busy and by the time bedtime comes I am out. Guess that is good though. My plan this year is to either go to El Dorado or KC once about once a month and just rotate. So about every 3 or 4 weeks we'll be making a trip and the other weekends we'll be relaxing at home. I think that will make the months go by faster by looking forward to where we are going next and Jackson will get lots of visits with his Grandmas and Grandpas! So, plans for the rest of this month will be hanging out at home again this weekend (Grandma Barb may be visiting), then going to KC the 23/24th, and then I am having a Premiere Jewelry Party the last weekend of the month. Hopefully I can get some orders so I can get lots of stuff, if not, I am just going to have to buy some anyway. LOL. So, the rest of the month should go pretty fast with all these plans and one month will be down! Then I will have to figure out how to fill up February. One weekend will already be dedicated to Baby Gretchen turning 1, wherever that party will take place!

That is it for now! Feeling a little more optimistic today.
