These weekly highlights probably won't interest most people but we are going to print this blog so we are using it as somewhat of a baby book. You can have your blog printed in book form so that's what we plan to do. I'm also keeping a journal of the pregnancy as well.

Today is a busy day for us. We have Jackson's birthday at 3:30 and then my mom's birthday dinner after that. It's hard to believe Jackson is 6 years old. He is the first little boy that completely captured my heart and I can't wait to have my own little boy. I hope and pray he is half as sweet as Jackson. Jackson has the kindest heart and is wise beyond his years. I love him more than I can even explain. I can't wait to spend this special day with him.

Deacon says a very special Happy Birthday to his Granna. That's right my mom and dad have names! Poppa and Granna. We know that Granna's birthday will be special today but it won't hold a candle to her birthday next year when Deacon is here to celebrate with her. Deacon will love you so much Granna-Maddy sure does! Speaking of which we have always called my mom MIMMY to Maddy and she gets so excited when we say Mimmy is here or we are going to see Mimmy. So when mom decided on Granna we said Maddy-Granna is here and she looked at us all like we had lost our minds and cocked her little head to the side. So we will be talking about Granna alot over the next few months to get her used to it.

Have a blessed Saturday.
