Rolling Over

Jackson hit yet another milestone today. He can roll from his back to his belly.

I went in to get him out of his bed this morning and he was on his belly. He didn't care for it too much, but he sure did look cute doing it. He is such a big boy!

Dance Class

Campbell has always been on the shy side. She can sometimes get a little clingy when put on the spot. She has such a sweet spirit about her and I wouldn't change a thing. We try not to push her into anything until she is absolutely ready.

We figured this out when we signed her up for softball practice. She enjoyed it as long as Brent was by her side the entire time. So, we decided maybe she simply isn't ready for an organized sport at this time. We are going to wait until she asked us to do something. Then we will know that she is ready. When she puts her mind to something, there is no stopping her. That is the perfectionist in her. (She gets that from her daddy)

Imagine my surprise when she asked me if she could take dance class. We explained to her that we could not be on stage with her. She was fine with it as long as we were in the audience watching her. I was shocked!! Thrilled, but shocked.

So, I guess I'll need to start looking into some dance classes for the fall. This is going to be so much fun!

2 Month Check Up

Jackson had his 2 month check up today. He weighs 12 lbs - 2 oz and 24 inches long. He is 85% in his height and 60% in weight. His doctor said that he looks fantastic and wants to see him when he is four months old.

He had a couple of shots today and he has been a little fussy ever since we got home. Hopefully, the Tylenol will kick in soon....very soon!

I Survived!

Today was a new milestone for me. I ventured out with all three kids by myself to do some much needed grocery shopping. I knew that I could handle it, but with a two year old, sometimes you have to expect the unexpected.

We pulled in the parking lot and found a cart that has a car attached to the end of it. The girls got strapped in and I placed Jackson in the cart. Needless to say, I didn't have much room for my food at this point. However, we seemed to manage.

As soon as we stepped foot in the store, Campbell wanted to get out and walk. Once I explained that could not possibly happen because "you know who" would want to join her, we were good to go. I gave them both a snack and we were out of the store within an hour. That is record timing for me!

As a reward for their good behavior, the girls put on their swimsuits and played in the water sprinkler. I think I had just as much fun watching them play together as they did.
