a short update

Last time I posted on here, was Dec. 3rd 2010.  Well 3 days later I gave birth to my mystery baby, and I got......... A GIRL!!!!  Most of you who know me, already know this though, sorry I'm not more with it.  We named her Katelynn Olea Jackson, and sometimes call her Katie for a nickname.

Wow!!! I can't believe that she is 3 months old already.  We blessed her on this past Sunday, March 6, 2011; I made this gorgeous dress for her (lol, though the dress shed a few of the decorations during Sacrament Meeting, and part of the skirt unraveled :( easily fixed though), and now my hubby tells me that I should make these blessing outfits (some of the cute little white satin tuxedos, infant size -  like I made for my last 2 sons; and blessing dresses) to sell.  Hmm... maybe....

Speaking of Katelynn's blessing, my brothers' Dale & Michael came with their wives and some of their family members, as well as my Dad & his wife.  I feel truly blessed because my brothers' came all this way from their homes to mine, and all on Sunday morning... we have the 9 am church schedule too!!!

Now I'm going to attempt to insert some pics of my baby girl from birth to age 3 months, though I haven't yet uploaded any of her in her blessing dress, I need to repair it first then take some pics.

Oh yeah, my sweet little guy Taw just had his 3rd birthday yesterday too.  Sometimes I can't believe he's 3 YEARS OLD already!

And now for pics....

This is the little white satin tux I made for Taw 3 years ago.  :)  Love it!

Joseph with Katelynn, sorry the year on my camera is way off  :)

Katelynn, weighed in at 6 lbs 15 oz, 18-3/4 inches long; the thingy hanging off her imbilical cord stub sets off an alarm [at the doors] if someone tries to steal her

Katelynn about 6 days old

Dec 2010

Hey folks,


Another 2 months have passed since I last posted, sorry.  At this point I feel like I'm treading water...  :)  Just waiting for baby to come.  Baby X is due December 20th (my sister's wedding anniversary), and while sometimes I hope that he or she comes early, I have decided that I would like to attend our currently scheduled Christmas parties, including hubby's on Dec. 15th.  :) Baby X can come on Dec 16th (my Dad's b-day) and I'd be plenty happy if he was born that day... although as much as I hurt & ache all the time (especially after sitting awhile or climbing the basement stairs from my laundry room), I suppose that any day now would be okay too.  I'm in my 37th week, will hit 38 weeks on next Monday December 6th.

A couple of pics of Baby X

So I've promised for some time to put pics of Baby X on here, well I finally got around to doing it this morning, as it seems that my memory just isn't the same as it used to be.  :)  Anyhow, here's one or two from my last Ultrasound; I haven't been able to get the 3-D US yet, they keep canceling on me.
