Guess What He Is Doing....

If you guessed dancing to Beyonce's "Single Ladies", then you guessed RIGHT!

I dont know how he knows the song, but here he was singing and dancing away. Right after this video came Kanye West "Heartless" and he was singing to that too... You can tell what we listen to in the car. haha

"Hope Over Fear"

I'm not sure if it was the speech that gave me chills or rather just being in the moment. This is one of those days I will think back and remember where I was. Unfortunately, I was driving in my car on the way to work.. not so romantic, but still astounding none the less. I HOPE that his actions are stronger than his words and I HOPE for new beginnings. Obama! Obama!

Dear Jackson,

It seems as though the month of January has brought more things than just a new president of the United States. You have fully grasped what it means to be 2. And you seem to want to live being 2, to its fullest.

You love to manhandle the dogs. Your personal favorite is Coco. I think it is because she is the smallest, its apparently human nature to pick on the runt of the group. Every morning you wake up crying out for her or Sissi (Pixie). I think its a love/hate relationship. You love to pull her tail and she hates you.

You have also been very interested in yelling in my face. This is fun..NOT. When I tell you no, you tell me no back. When I tell you to go to time out, you tell me no. When I pretty much tell you to do anything, you tell me no. Yeah, this has got to stop. I'm the only one disciplining you, get used to it..I'm all you got.

You are also very curious lately. Touching, pulling, tasting, yanking EVERYTHING in sight. You mostly like to do it after I tell you not to, and you LOVE to do it when I am looking directly at you. It brings you such a thrill.

But just so you know.. that even though you can irk me more than once a day, that I love you dearly. All you have to do is laugh and it makes me give in . So keep laughing.. keep living.. but please stop licking everyone. That's kinda weird..not gonna lie.

Love,

Your Mommy

Rules

Ahhh the wise words of Dwight Schrute has stuck me to the core once again. I think I will be singing this little diddy to Jackson every night...

Education is Key

So I started another chapter in my life this year...its actually a chapter that was on a To Be Continued type of pause. But exciting none the less. I started school... I know you are thinking, umm haven't you been at school for the past two years? Yeah I have. But this is a real life university. Heck yeah!

Somethings I have learned so far:

1. I stare at people. All the freaking time and get caught. It is kinda embarrassing. You think I would learn the first time..but nope.. I keep on staring.

2. My 2D teacher looks like a Simpson character. Preferably Mr.Burns when he was about 25.

3.Parking sucks at all school campus...always upgrade to premium parking.

4.Research a little about your campus so you don't look like a moron, aka like me.

5. Undergrad class times suck.

6. I have Adult ADD and cannot sit for long periods of time without moving.

That's all for now.

Ray of Sunshine

Some days I feel as though life is at a stand still. That there are all types of things going on around me and I just cant seem to catch on to any of it. Kind of like I keep getting stuck at all the red lights. Or like the tickets run out right when I get to the front to buy one. Does that make any sense?

I got stopped today while I was pumping gas and this complete stranger told me that I looked really fun. That, because I was laughing at a hilarious text message, that I was going to have a good day. That he wished he had someone like me, to bring light into his day, everyday. Nice huh?

I really, couldn't help but laugh, because I mostly feel like the little grey rain cloud that follows people around, and here was this complete stranger that said I was rather a ray of sunshine. Really?

I don't know if its the lack of spontaneity that is missing. Or perhaps the feeling of always being inadequate. Whoa, I bet you didn't know you were signing up for my own personal therapy session...

I guess I just feel that I am not living the life I signed up for. Everyone has pitfalls, road blocks, diversions. I guess I am just in need of something new. If I wasn't totally against it at the moment, this is where I would usually insert a new daring haircut.

So I am ready world.. bring it on.. something new. Something engaging and excited. Bring. It.

After:

I will say that I told him, "No Sir!" after that first picture was taken.. he then proceeded onto what you see in the after photo. Just no that no one was hurt in the process of these pictures. His head was extracted in no time.. and he will not be doing that again.
