Big Canoe

Last week we headed out to Big Canoe for vacation with Josh's side of the family.


We had a wonderful trip. It was relaxing for the most part. Jakson has a hard time sleeping places other than his own bed, so poor daddy was up around 6 every morning with the boy. This happens every time we are somewhere other than our home. I am hoping one day he will learn to sleep in other beds and let the rest of us enjoy our sleep!! But until then...oh well!

Our house was right on the lake so jakson got to go out for his first ride on the kayak with daddy. He was very still and just took it all in :)

Josh and I are creeping up on our 3rd anniversary in November. Big Canoe is actually where our rehearsal dinner was before we got married at the Tate House. So on our way home we stopped at the Tate House for a few pictures of us with our little guys!

Boy, n.: a noise with dirt on it

i am quickly learning how that is the perfect definition of a boy. Jakson is loud and is always getting as dirty as he possibly can. oh and always in a random pair of shoes. gotta love him :)

Photobucket

love these pictures of my boys. jakson is pretty obsessed with his little brother.

i can't wait to get this kid playing ball. he thinks that everything is a ball and thinks that everyone wants that ball thrown at their face :) and i'm not lying, he sure can throw and has some great aim. he is going to be our little sports star for sure.

yesterday we went out the yard when it had cooled down a little bit and let jakson hit some balls.
look at that face, oh my goodness, i could just eat him up!!

and then his next two favorite things...
Daddy and cars!

daddy let him help pull up the jeep when he got home from work

we are taking the boys on a fun little road trip tomorrow~ I am one excited momma!

"Mommy, Wow! I'm a big kid now."

yes, that is what jakson should have been singing this morning. his first day of preschool. seriously, i say it too much but i can't believe how quickly time passes. jakson started preschool this morning and will be going on monday and tuesday mornings. i love his preschool and am really excited for our little man to learn and have fun!


he woke up in a great mood like he usually does when daddy gets him up. it is always a treat to have daddy home in the morning :)

of course i took way too many pictures but i don't even care. i was so proud of my preschooler!

Love this kiddo!
Photobucket

he did so great! he could have cared less that Josh and i had left the room. we didn't make a big goodbye scene because i didn't want to make him upset. we peeked in at him through the window and he was fine!

When i went to pick him up his teacher said he did great! she said one of the other kids got upset and so then jakson realized it was time to cry so he did but quickly calmed down. she also said that our little piggy went around and finished all of the other kid's snacks after they were all done :)

we stopped for a happy meal on the way home and he was soooo sleepy. he is napping now. i think preschool wore him out!
