Ashton Daniel Jackson

So as of March 9th I will have the internet at my apartment once again, and then I will be able to keep more updated on my blogs, i think I have one million thoughts running through my head that I would like to get down..but for now this will do…

Ashton was born on January 5th, finally! He is now nearly 2 months old and I can not believe how big he has gotten so far! He is “talking” up a storm and rolled over from his belly to his back at 3 weeks! He is working on the other now but so far only gets to his side. He is a good baby overall and actually sleeps through the night most nights, praise the Lord!  I love him so much and love that I get to stay home with him and watch him grow every day, its a hard job but someones gotta do it;)

Daniel and I are doing well, loving being parents and loving each other more and more. Today Daniel is sick with a fever, we are hoping Ashton and I don’t catch it and I have stayed out of the apartment all day to avoid the germs as much as possible.

I am recovering from my c-section well, I seemed pretty back to normal about 3 weeks afterward and have been exercising for a while now trying to get the abs back with some sort of strength so its not all in my back! Surprisingly, or not, I have lost nearly 40 lbs since my last doctors appointment before Ashton was born. Granted Ashton was 10 of it, but am feeling much better. I can’t believe how far I felt from my normal self, am glad to not be pregnant at the moment.

Speaking of being pregnant again, the plan is to start trying again at the beginning of next year, hopefully not before…oh please Lord help us! haha. We know it doesn’t always turn out the way we think it is going to, amen?! Seems I started the baby train in some ways with a group of us, not in any hurry to jump back on the track any time soon! ha. I find myself thinking of having another one…eventually…i wasn’t so sure at first!!

Anyways, I will keep life and family hopefully updated here..as well as my thoughts on life and God and what He is teaching me. Written processing is needed soon!
