Wee Wilson Tales

I'm sure that Paul Mitchell would be very interested in this new hairstyle that Jax modeled last night. I've known for quite some time that Jax is pretty smart. Now I think that it's obvious that he will also be very fashion savvy. After eating his entire bowl of Spaghetti-o ravioli, I cut up some bananas for him to eat. By the way, we've mastered this new way of eating...2 forks!! While he's feeding himself with one, I'm getting the other fork loaded up with the next bite. He would get a little stingy and refuse (okay, throw a fit) to hand back the fork. So problem solved = 2 forks!! Anyway, he gets pretty sticky when eating bananas because they obviously don't slide on the fork too well. So he uses his fingers. Naturally, the perfect place to wipe your hands when you don't have a shirt is in your hair. Plus fruit is good for you, so it must be good for your hair. Although he didn't exactly say it, I know that he was thinking of calling this very t...

I know you are probably tired of his dancing videos . . . but he just dances so much!! Here are a few pics from this morning too. Doesn't he look so big?? Being silly: Peek-a-boo Latest belly pic, 21 weeks 3 days: This picture is a good reminder that you should never wear horizontal stripes while pregnant. I don't know what I was thinking.

We had a great weekend! John decided to do a cookout for his family Saturday. He bought all the groceries, cooked, made everything look nice outside. It was great. We had rotel, salsa, sausage rotel and chips for appetizers. For lunch: steak kabobs, grilled chicken, grilled corn on the cob, potato salad, salad, beans. For dessert: watermelon, chocolate cake, ice cream. He did such a good job! The weather was luckily nice during the day. Overcast and warm. It was that night that the tornado warnings started rolling in. Here are a few pictures from Saturday: On Sunday, we went to church. Then we had a picnic with my Mom and Dad. My sister was sick - on her first Mother's Day!! - and couldn't be with us! I was sad about that. It was really windy Sunday afternoon, but we had a nice day. John and I put together my firepit/coffee table that he bought me for the patio. Then we went to Lowe's. It was a busy, but nice weekend. School is wrapping up too. I will be giving my final ex...

Jax had so much fun at the zoo Saturday. The weather was perfect! His favorites were the gorillas, the giraffes, and the lions. We stopped by Firehouse Subs on the way home (YUM!), and then came home and put together a bike seat for Jax. I love that John is wearing his boots with his shorts in the bike pics!! Jax' first view of the gorilla: Watching the gorilla closely: Looking at the monkey: Seeing the gorilla outside: The gorilla was pretty interesting to watch: Orangutan: I love this picture even though it's blurry: Watching the pandas: Marco Polo Jax: My Dad has taught him to pat his knee when he listens to music. So this is him patting his knee listening to the radio. Looking in the dog pin for Mugsy and Knuckles: Riding on the bike with Daddy: Grandaddy rode too:

I'm so proud to say that I made it one whole day without opening the envelope. LOL!!! John and I took Jax to the zoo yesterday. We were talking about the ultrasound on the way there, and John finally admitted that he REALLY did see the screen when we weren't supposed to look. He SAYS he didn't mean to, and that he thought she was finished. But, he said that the screen was zoomed in and he saw boy parts! So I ripped the envelope open as soon as we got home for our early-not so surprise- surprise . . . and here is what we saw. Anyway, I'll probably have to ban John for going in the ultrasound on number 3 now. Any volunteers to take his place??? I didn't really have any expectations about gender this time around . . . but I will admit that I'm hoping the third will be a girl!!! I think it's fun that Jax will have a brother to grow up with. And, I've got plenty of clothes for this one too. So there's our news. And for those of you that said I there...

First and foremost, we've got a healthy baby!!! That is always such a relief. So many people think the big ultrasound is about gender, but it's really about making sure that everything is okay. I'm so relieved, and I thank God for blessing us with a healthy baby. Secondly, I have gained 2 lbs . . . so I'm happy with that. And my blood pressure was 128/68, SO HAPPY ABOUT THAT!!!!! Thirdly, the doctor gave me the okay to go with John to the Bahamas. Actually, he said it sounds okay now. But let's wait and make sure that you aren't dailated any or having any contractions before we say for sure. Now, what everyone is wondering about . . . did we find out what we are having??? No!!! Okay, I had no problem being firm in my decision to not find out the sex. Until I knew that someone else knew what my baby was. John asked the tech if she knew yet (she had asked us to turn our heads), and she said no (with a big smile). John said, "yes you do!" She admitted it,...
