My First Mothers Day

My first Mothers Day was hands down a wonderful day!  We had my parents for a couple hours before they headed home, we spent a couple hours outside swimming/tanning and then finished the day with a movie. Jett was so much fun in the water! He just floated around in his floaty with a big ol' grin on his face for quite a while!

After the pool we got cleaned up and watched the first 3 hours of 'Gone With The Wind.' We haven't finished it yet but so far I really like it.  I had never seen this movie before so I was stoked to finally watch it. I'm anxious to finish it and see what happens to Scarlett!

While we were laying by the pool on Sunday Clayton and I got thinking back to when I was pregnant and how so many people told us that once we had a child we wouldn't be spending much time by the pool and how our lives would be SO different. I used to just cringe every time someone 'told' me how our life would be once Jett was born.  Every baby is different and I'm still clueless why someone would think that just because their baby did or didn't like something they immediately assume every child is like that.  There is no doubt that God has blessed us with a baby boy who is pretty laid back and loves cool water! If we want to lay by the pool and Jett's not napping then we put Jett's pack-n-play outside in the shade and when he's not in the water he sits in there with toys. He has a great time playing by himself and standing up trying to throw toys to Tucker.

Random piece of information:  Buffalo Ted (our chubby cat) turned 8 on Mothers Day. We rescued him from the humane society in Omaha on Mother's Day 6 years ago and have since declared his birthday to be on Mother's Day!

I'm so insanely grateful that on August 1, 2010 God gave us a healthy baby boy!

I love being Jett's Mama and look forward to watching him grow up!
