Me and my 3 "lil" Men.

Last Wednesday (I am still a week behind) was Parent's Day @ Jackson's preschool. I took Bennett to the Y for the morning out so it would just be Rob and I there. We got to go to music class with them, watch circle time and enjoy some yummy snacks. I think music class is by far Jackson's favorite thing at school. Every Wed. when he comes home from school he will be singing the songs they sang that day in class. I got a couple videos on my phone...but of course I left my camera at home....I'll be lucky to even get a pic of #3 when he/she gets here at the rate I am going...thankfully Carla brought hers and Jackson and Addison were sitting next to each other during the music class and circle time. Thanks, again Carla!

Bouncing up and down in their "little red wagon"

He LOVES music class!!

This is when the little birdie fell flat! I just love his expression...can't you tell he is throughly loving it! It makes me so happy!

I have been working on this post for almost a week!! This is the 3rd time I have tried to load these pics!! 3rd times the charm I guess...

This past weekend Robert took the boys to a Toy Story night at the Children's Museum here. It was planned as a boy's night, so momma got a lil time to wonder aimlessly around Target and go in a coupld other stores with no actual plan or reason. They boys got to mine for "gold", have stick horse races, eat pizza, and apparently ALL the cookies, color bandanas and listen to story time from a man in a very large cowboy hat!  They even came home with Sherrif's badges. I think they had a wonderful time and really enjoyed being with their daddy for the evening.

HE pretty much does ROCK!!

Jack & the beanstalk...literally the CM here has an awesome beanstalk for the kids to climb.

Stick Horse races....

Bennett does things HIS way..

Jackson asking questions....go figure?!!?

This past week we (yes..we, I make the hubby go too) took the boys to the dentist. Let me just say Jackson is a better patient than I am. Seriously he was GREAT. We (and the dentist's office staff) were SO SO SO proud of him. He let them do whatever to him. Granted...he watched Mickey Mouse the entire time his teeth were being cleaned...but still! He even sat perfectly still all by himself for x-rays..and dental x-rays are annoying...As well as Jackson was doing I was preparing for the worst with Bennett. He. is. not. a. great. patient. I can't say he showed his worst side...he let them do most everything..just abbreviated...and no xrays for him...but he doesn't have all his teeth in yet(still missing 2yr molars). They both clean bills and got to pick out prizes. They even got these SUPER cute t-shirts..we will be walking advertisement for our dentist now!!

My cutie pies and their new shirts!!

Saturday was Jackson first soccer game of this season. Change #1...new team...all boys!! We saw Jackson more aggressive side come out. Last season...he chased the girls more than the ball. I get it bc when he was in daycare full time he was the ONLY boy for the longest time. It was him and 3 other little girls from 6mos until they were in the 3yr. old class. He generally plays more with girls. Change #2....the weather.....grrr...this weekend's weather STUNK a big one! Sat. the forecast was H-75 L-62 We never got above 50!! AND it was overcast and misting the whole time. Sun. looked like it was going to be the same and was for most of the day until around 2pm we finally saw the sun and it warmed up to low 70s. Now they are saying the highs for the rest of the week are going to be in the upper 60's. But really...what do they know?? Change # 3 is fittingly enough.... addition #3!! We are expecting baby # 3 to debut this Fall in early October. Apparently, I thought I was being sneaky and hiding it...but there is no hiding #3 for very long...I felt like I started showing the day I found out!! We are super excited and can't wait to meet him/her...(but probably him) in Oct. Change #4..not really a change per say..but we changed up our usual outings and went to a Science Center in Greensboro with our neighbors that was really cool. It had a mini zoo outside and the kids LOVED it. Jackson's fav was the "talking" parrot, and Bennett's fav. was prob. the snacks and running like a wild chicken all over the place! ;) My fav. was the tiger...he was huge!!! Here are some pics from our field trip...one that we will be taking again!

Still not 100% sure what this was..but obviously..they all loved it!

Bennett loved the cow.

Jackson's turn.

It's blury but J-man on a throw in.

This past week was Jackson's "Spring Break" I use the term loosely because 1. he goes to preschool 3 days a week 1/2 day and 2. the weather here was more like winter than spring. Monday it snowed...seriously! I don't think we saw the 50's until Friday. I am the type that loves my 4 seasons... I love when things change....good change that is...and what better change than from winter to spring? I just hate how darn long it always takes to get to spring and how quickly it seems to exit. Man. I think I am rambling....
So needless to say it was by far not the most exciting Spring Break...we did go to the Big Bang Boom concert on Tues. which was a much bigger hit this time than last! And Friday we did get to play the whole morning at our neighbors. They have one of those inflatables and blew it up inside. Totally cool and lots of fun! This weekend was SO. MUCH. BETTER. weather wise (yes I'm back on that rant) my weather bug said it was like 67 but is was sunny and not breezy and it felt like 77 to me!! We played outside all afternoon and got some chores done too!! One of which included transfering stuff from the Jeep to my new-to-me Tahoe. We decided you never know when you may need more room! ;)  I love it! Nothing new or too fancy but it gives me as much room as a mini...without having to go there!! Thanks to my hubby for hounding the car dealers and wheeling and dealing...again for me.

Playing checkers while waiting on the show.

yep..its was packed!

What, you don't dance around with a football helmet on?



Bennett decided he needed a closer look to figure this guy out.

Bennett and I had the evening to ourselves when Rob went to pick up the car. He took Jackson with him on his "big boy errand" Jackson thought it was the coolest thing ever!! So lil man and I had a mini photo shoot!

You can take the boy outta TN but not the TN outta the boy!!

Bennett and mommy

He looked so young to me here.

Not so much here....

 Here is how Bennett chipped in to help out his daddy while brother was off playing superhero and things more important!

Helping daddy mow the yard.

It was intense.

Hi!

We have a bit to teach him about straight lines when he mows!!
