Not so normal day....

Today has been a weird day.  We got home a couple of days ago from our 3rd trip in 1 month to Texas.  It's always nice to go in and visit and see everybody but always nice to come back home.  We were out and about alot in Texas and I needed something to get J's attention when he would get fussy.  I downloaded a baby Einstein app on my phone and he LOVES it!

When we pulled up to our house Jones squealed he was so excited.  When we came inside he started staring and pointing at all his toys and grunting.  It usually takes a good week to get things back on schedule and rest up from the long travel days.  I have been on the verge of exhaustion running around like a chicken with my head cut off plus having to deal with the pain of shingles.....again!  Not fun!  This morning I needed to get a lot of things done.

I went to bed last night dreading today..........

I woke up this morning ready to go!

Got a lot done plus cleaned up a huge poop explosion!


J man got a little stopped up over the past week.  He has had a lot of starches and bread and those do not do a tummy good!  I have nursed and nursed him since we got home and he is all cleaned out now!


We are going to have a busy busy month.  We have our first big group of hunters coming at the end of next month.  Around 13!  Cody has been getting things organized with scheduling and getting things set up on the ranch, etc and I have been trying to get new recipe's together and make a list of all I will need to feed these boys!  J has been helping with the scouting!
I have found several recipes over the last few days and this morning while flipping through the channels I came across a reality TV show about Dallas Elite.......Gimme' a break!  Why do people have to make Texas look so bad......anyways in my annoyance I flipped over to the food network channel to get some more recipes and a new show was on called The Pioneer Woman.  I have heard about her for awhile but never looked her up.  It was refreshing to watch after watching the Texas Elite show....barf!  She is my new go to girl for quick "on the ranch" recipe's to feed an army!  Love her!

8 months

Sweet Baby Jones, where has the time gone?

You will be 8 months tomorrow.  We will be in the car all day traveling back to East Texas

You are effortlessly happy all day long

You have to much to see and learn, to nap during the day

You sleep 12 hours straight at night

Still loving mommy milk

Your favorite food is squash and potatoes only the the homemade fresh stuff:)

You love your sippy cup with water, although you prefer to chew on it more than drink from it

You have 6 teeth and I can feel 2 more working there way....slow down!

You would prefer to chew on mommy's Iphone and Daddy's TV remote over all your beautiful colorful toys

You never meet a stranger. 

You want to take off and crawl so bad.  Somedays I think you can but you prefer to tease us

You say DaDa all day long.  I say to say momma and you laugh.  I think you said, "No" one day!

Your sleeping in your crib now.  I think you miss sleeping in your bassinet but enjoy the new freedom of a lot more room now!

You are very hot natured like your daddy

You 'talk' all day long.  Im sure you know exactly what you're saying..I don't:)
