Moments to remember....

I am unfortunately behind on blogging...but I wanted to take the time to write about the day to day moments that I cherish and don't want to ever forget.....

JACKSON:
* Twice today Jackson gave me a hug and told me that I was the "best mom ever"....talk about making a mother's day
* He was in timeout yesterday and afterwards he came up to me and said, "Mom....do you know what I was doing in timeout?  I was asking God to forgive me."  I was so amazed that he "got it" :)
* I love watching Jackson help his brothers.  He has such a sweet heart.  He definitely tries very hard to do the right thing...most of the time :)

DILLAN:
* He is so much fun to be around....he has so much life and exuberance!  He is so expressive!  All throughout the day I hear him excitedly say...."Mommy, watch this!"....and I love every minute of it!
* He often tells me, "Don't worry mommy" :)  He also has a very sweet heart just expresses it in a different way.
* Lately he has become pretty affectionate...especially for him....another thing that I am loving....lots of hugs and kisses!

AIDEN:
* He is also a lot of fun to watch these days....he has a grin that is one of a kind!  You cannot look at him and not smile if he is smiling at you with his grin!  He is a very happy boy until he is not...this has been true of him from day 1....likely why God led us to his name which means....fiery one :)  He has both red hair and a temper :)
* This morning after he woke up....he was still sitting in my lap and he looked at me and gave me 2 kisses...talk about melting my heart!
* He is babbling more and more and I think his "first word" is mama....he has been saying it for awhile, but I think he is starting to use it correctly.  What is funny is that I usually pat myself and say "mama"....so he has started rubbing his chest saying "mama" :)  Only time will tell if this is truly and officially his "first word" :)

HUDSON:
* Even though he is my fourth...I am beyond amazed by the miracle of life and that I have been blessed with this tiny being living inside me.  Each kick and punch leave me in awe of God's goodness.  I do not take this process for granted...I am already in love with him and eagerly anticipate his arrival :)
* With all of my pregnancies....I have known without a doubt what there name was shortly after seeing them on the sonogram.  Hudson was no different...the other night...with tears in my eyes I told Walt...."This is Hudson."  How could he argue with that :)  We are still finalizing the middle name.

I am going to try and get caught up with the blog soon!!!!
