Blake-isms

My son is so funny! He comes up with the funniest little sayings and I have no idea where they come from! Here are some of my favorites...

When eating a meal..."Mommy I need sunthin else"
After spotting a man on a motorcycle..."You be careful Motorcycle Man, you be careful"
After Reece leaves..."Hey where Reece-y go?"
Referring to his sun glasses..."I need my cool dude"
When playing his guitar..."I sing a song Mommy"
Referring to his kitchen..."I cook in my kitchen Mommy...you comin Mommy?"
When we drive past his school..."I see my school Mommy, I give he a kiss"
When I ask him who is in my tummy..."Baby Jackson...I need to see he Mommy"
After falling down on purpose..."I ok Mommy I ok"
When going to Sunday School..."I wear my baseball hat" (They have a baseball helmet in his class that he LOVES!)
When I leave him at Grannie's in the morning..."Bye-Bye Mommy, see ya yater"
When he goes outside..."Hey where the moon go? He's sleepin" OR "Prolly behind the clouds Mommy" "Silly Moon"
When he hears a plane fly over the house..."I hear that helicopter Mommy..no prolly a airplane"

These are so much funnier when you hear him say them!! He cracks me up!!

Pencil in March 11!

I saw the Dr. today! All looks great! I called earlier this week to try to schedule my c-section date (aka Jackson's Birthday)! I had not heard anything so I asked the Dr. today. She said that the paperwork was being done and it was penciled in for March 11 at 10:00. We decided to go with the 11th because that was my Paw-Paw's Birthday. (Dad's Dad) It is scary to think that it is coming so fast!

On a much more sad note...I asked the Dr. if she usually recommended 8 weeks recovery for a c-section. She said that if the company says they want you back in 6 then they will require her to medically justify keeping me longer. She said if there is a medical reason for me to stay home then she will. BUT I healed really fast and really well with Blake, so it looks like I will only have 6 weeks off. That really makes me want to cry....but I am going to have to deal with it I guess. At least I will only have a little over a month back at school before summer break. :0)

Baby Jackson

Well it has been a pretty exciting week at the Robison house. Monday I went back to work. I had a staff development all day. Let me just say the conditions were not ideal for anyone let alone a pregnant woman. I had to park a mile away from the building and walk in the cold and rain. Once inside there was auditorium seating....wooden chairs and very little leg room. Needless to say by 4:00 I was not really feeling too well. I went to Mom's and laid down for little while. When I woke up I felt even worse, but I grabbed Blake and headed home. After dinner I told Shawn I was going to go lay down. That's when the pain started. I was having severe pain in my belly. To the point that I was almost in tears. Shawn called the Dr. and a few minutes later we were off to Labor and Delivery. Ironic because at 29 weeks with Blake we also took a trip to L&D. Blake was very concerned about me. He came up to the side of the bed and said "what's wrong mommy, what's wrong?" When I told him my tummy hurt he reached up and rubbed it very softly. Such a sweetheart! By the time we got there the pain was mostly gone but when they hooked me up to the monitors I was contracting. About every 3 minutes. So they started giving me shots to make them stop. Which it did until the meds wore off and then they came back. They watched me for a while and ended up sending me home saying that I needed to rest and that should the contractions return I needed to come back. I think we got home at about 1AM. Due to all this craziness Blake spent his first night away from home. Grannie and Paw Paw came and got him from the hospital. Tuesday I stayed in bed all day. I got up to eat and go potty and that was it. Wednesday morning on the way to work I started contracting again. About every 10 minutes. So back to L&D I went. My doctor said that I was not in preterm labor but that the contractions could lead to that if we can't stop them. SO I ended up getting the pill form of the shot I was getting. And I went home. On the pills I seem to be doing better. Except for the fact that the meds make me really shaky. Thursday I worked a normal day and Friday I had a Dr. appointment and so I didn't go to work. This week was such a waste! At my appointment she checked me again and I am not dilating so that is good news. The meds are working so that is good news. So all in all we are doing ok. A little shaky...but not contracting! Next week is going to be SUPER busy so I really hope that the meds keep working. I have a follow up Dr. visit next Friday with more test results. I pray that all is well.

Big Boy Bed!


Well my baby officially slept in his own big boy bed last night! We finally got the rails put on and the new pieces of furniture together last night. We had been telling him all about his big boy room for the past couple of days. We even went out to IKEA to buy some furniture so that we could move the baby stuff into Jackson's room. Blake seemed very into it! Then Daddy spent all evening putting together furniture and we finally got Blake into bed at about 8:45. We gave him all the ball pillows and of course his Doggy and Night-Nights. Got the lamp turned on and read "Goodnight Moon". He did so GOOD! He whimpered a little bit when we turned off the lights but he didn't cry at all....didn't get out of bed....he was such a big boy! Mommy cried a little of course! My baby is a big boy! A favorite movie quote of mine comes to mind...cheesy movie...(Hope Floats), but a good quote..."my cup runneth over".
