Day 20

Wednesday, September 29, 2010

Today, Jack and I played outside a good bit and I actually got him to take a little nap (and I took one too -- yay!).  We went to take some deployment photos for a really sweet family and Jack got along GREAT with their little boy!  At one point, I ran back to the car to grab a prop and Jack stayed over by the planes with the family.  I guess I just wasn't paying attention because when I got back to where they were, Jack had stripped off his shorts and his Pull-Up and was sitting on the grass, eating gummy worms!  The whole family was laughing like crazy and Jack did NOT want to put his Pull-Up back on!  After that, we grabbed some dinner and when we got home, Jack came up to me and wagged his fingers saying, "I need to get my nails did at Toys R Us."  I have NO idea where he heard about getting his nails did, lol!  We don't watch tv unless it is Disney Channel or the toddler Nick channel!  Silly child.

Day...Whatever

Tuesday, September 28

Today, was just a stay-at-home and relax day for Mommy and Jack.  It was nice just getting outside to play with my little guy.  He is so awesome!  He played outside for the longest time with all of the cats and his favorite thing to do is play in the dirt in the backyard.  Naked, of course.  I have never seen any other child who hates clothes so much!  It is kinda crazy!!  He is SO happy to have Bo-Kitty back and he follows him everywhere -- even under the furniture outside!  I don't know how he squeezed under there but he surely did!  We stayed home pretty much all day long and just had a nice time.  Unfortunately, he took a power nap late at night and then stayed up too late!  I hate it when that happens!

Day 18

My little kiddo was SUCH a hoot today!  He woke up really sensitive and a little bit upset.  I heard him in bed calling "Mommy???  Mommy???" so I went in there and his lip was quivery.  I came to snuggle him and he said, "You are not Green Mommy.  No, you are not Green Mommy.  You don't have a red scratch and you have Mommy's hair and Mommy's green eyes.."  I was like:  Geez!  What did this kiddo dream?!  He finally got un-sensitive and we got up and had a pretty good day!  We played outside a lot but it was a good bit warmer than it was on Sunday.  That night, we went to do a little mini photoshoot with a lady and her little boy and their dog at the park.  Jack kept trying to pick up her 2 year old and finally he settled for romping around with their giant, hyper dog, lol.  It was SO funny!  On the way home, I was listening to Jack singing and it went something like this (to the tune of Hush Little Baby).

Jack:
*Mama's gonna buy you a froggy.  And if that froggy jumps in the water, Mama's gonna buy you a Transberry Juice.  And if that Transberry Juice goes out in the road, Mama's gonna buy you a RPM.  And if that RPM drives off, Mama's gonna buy you a buzzy bee.  And if that buzzy bee flies away, Mama's gonna buy you a friend.  And if friend goes home to play, Mama's gonna buy you a kitty cat. And if that kitty cat goes in the woods, Mama's gonna buy you a new car.  And if that new car won't go to Walmart...*

And so on.  It was SO funny!  He didn't even know I was listening.  What a cutie pie!

Day 17

Today was kinda sucky.  I cut my foot pretty badly and that wasn't cool.  Aside from that, Jack was pretty happy and we were outside a LOT.  It was SO cool outside -- 71 degrees!  It felt awesome.  Toward the end of the day, he got a little bit crabby but was mostly a happy little guy. :)

Day 16

Saturday, September 25, 2010

Fun day today!  I had a photoshoot with my two babies today and it was also the dreaded Alabama-Arkansas game!  Dum dum duuuuummmmmmmmm!!!  We shot at the cutest little old gas station and Jack got to chase a rooster, lol.  It was pretty cute.  And Bama won!  Yay!  Jack was my good luck charm, wearing his Bama shirt.  We were able to Skype with Granddaddy for a while too and Jack enjoyed that a lot.

Day 15

It rained today! Finally!  All next week is supposed to be SO much cooler than it has been, which is great!  What WASN'T great is that Jack got upset about Daddy being gone today.  We got Daddy's phone in the mail and he got upset, so I decided to give him a break from the photos.  Thankfully, he got over it quickly and he really enjoyed playing with the phone.  After most of the rain passed, I took him to the little lake and we jumped on rocks and ran across bridges until we saw a turtle that was trapped in some fishing line.  Jack said, "Mommy, you HAVE to save the turtle!!"  Well crap!  I have to save the darn thing after that, don't I?!  So here I go, kicking off my flipflops, rolling up my pants and wading into ankle-deep mud and nasty water up to my mid-shin to save this turtle.  Of course I don't have any scissors on me, so I have to bite the fishing line to cut it.  GROSS!!!!!!!!  I saved the freaking turtle though. Go me.

Day 14

Thursday, September 23, 2010

Ooohhhhh my child does NOT like to be cooped up indoors.  It was supposed to be one of the last hot days of the year, so I kept him outside all day long!  He has been so cute and funny!  We went to the park and he had to jump on every single rock there and we fed the ducks too.  This time, he was fearless!  He even let them eat out of his hand and walk all over him! It was very cute.

He did have his bad moments too.  I told him not to take a Coke out of the dining room or I would put him in the bed and he looked me right in the eye (while drinking the Coke) and stuck his little foot on the living room carpet.  Well, I can assure you that I put him right in bed!  Here is what I heard from the other room while he was in bed:

Jack:  "Mommy, I do not want to go to bed!"
"I am just a wittle baby!  Mommy, I am Mommy's baby!  But I am just Mommy's wittle baby, Mommy!  PWEASE, Mommy!  I no go to bed, Mommy!  I am YOUR BABY!"

I was just laughing SO hard in the living room but darn if he didn't make me feel a little bit guilty too!  Geez!!!!
