my favorite night gown - it is adorable

I have been sooooooo tired lately - Maggie feeds twice a night - there was one night where she slept for 6 and a half hours and I felt like a new woman - but for the most part its only 5 hours from one feed to the next at night. I am lucky to have a shower, I am short with Jackson, but we do try to keep our day fun and do one nice thing - a craft project, walk to park, read extra books or just dance to the wiggles with him - he is twice as nice if I or Brad spend just and hour or so extra with him. he is the devil child if he gets no nap - or if he has too little to do in the day.


After J got his stiches removed I promised him his first real trip to the hardware store to buy some nails, hammer and wood. After all he likes to pretend to fix and build things and I thought he'd be ready for the real deal. He was SO excited when we entered home depot - he gushed " Oh my God it's Christmas time in here!!" (they had their decorations out already) and then was super excited to tell the hardware man what he needed and promplty followed him to collect each item, choosing a hammer that was just the right size, and one plank of wood that he could carry himself. He has hammered nails all along the wood with a bit of help from me and Brad. We are making a Manger for baby Jesus, with an Angel on the top (yet to be made) I plan to string twinkle lights all over it using the nails he has hammered, it will just have 3 sides but hey - its our first Christmas project and he's having fun.

Love the concentration - J will get plenty of mileage from this great project. Kisses from Lollie for my beautiful grandchildren.
