Apple Picking

Today we went apple picking at Applewood Orchard in Warwick, NY.  Jackson had such a wonderful time.  We gave him an apple to chomp on himself and he absolutely fell in love with them.  Here are a few pics from our trip today!  Enjoy everyone. 

I just need to get over myself...

   So this is my and Jackson's first FULL week of school.  I have to say that I am pretty much dreading it.  I like Jackson's daycare, I really do but I just can't seem to get over the fact that he is there and not with me.  

  I know Jackson is having tons of fun, I read his daily reports and they paint, and explore sand and glue, they go outside on their very own playground, work on language (Spanish, English, and Sign) and they go for buggy rides (which Miss Paula told me Jackson loves). I know it is all of this great stuff is making him look so exhausted when I pick him up and making it difficult for him to stay awake past 7PM.  I can tell that they love to take care of him and listen to myself and husband when we ask them questions or have concerns or just need to talk.  But it is the days that I pick him up and he smells like them that make me a little sad...I want him to smell like me.

   I guess I just need to get over myself and know that this is what I have to do for my family right now.  Just know that I love you Jackson!!

Day 1 of Daycare=Success, Day 2 of Daycare=SICK!!

Here is Jackson playing with the rabbit and cow at daycare right before we say good bye on Wednesday.





The picture of my little baby sleeping on the couch is my poor little man on day two of daycare because guess what happened?!!!!  Jackson woke up on Thursday with a fever, cough, and congestion!!!  YAY daycare!!!  I was so upset, I cried and told Chris that this was a sign that I was supposed to stay home for another year.
