2.2.12
This is the day Jack put his hand and foot prints into the cement. It also happens to be Jack "Old Man" Courtney's birthday. We will constantly be reminded of the reason we chose to name our little man Jack. Call it coincidence or whatever you like but I think it shows how he will forever be watching over us.

3 Things...
These are the 3 things that have consumed my mind for the past 6+ months.
We have finally started on the house. It has been a lot of fun seeing Matthew's plan take shape. He designed the house himself and I just threw in my tidbits here and there. He has done an amazing job lining up all the contractors while I sit back and enjoy the new view. I have a feeling this maternity leave won't be me cooped up in a house. I'll be running around or surfing the internet looking for fixtures, paint colors, etc. Building a house is a lot of work but we are so thankful to be able to have the opportunity to construct the exact plan perfect for our little family.
Jack has been growing like crazy. He's starting to get a little pudgy behind. He goes in for his 18 month check up this next week. It is mind boggling how fast the time goes by. He is very independent but loves to be around people. He and Lucy are best friends but fight like brother and sister. It reminds me of my sister and I. He is slowing understanding that his little sister is not in his tummy but mommy's. He will eat just about anything which is nice but if he doesn't like it, it's coming right back out. He loves his daddy. They are out right now checking on the Henderson's cows. He loves to go and be outside. He had his first bloody nose this last week which scared me because I couldn't get it to stop but didn't really bother him to much. Poor guy has two parents with curly hair so his hair is like a crazy man. He loves playing over at the new house. Running around with his dad, playing drums on the plumbing pipes and walking between the studs.
Miss Lily is still growing. In a little over 5 weeks, we will finally get to hold her. I absolutely can not wait. Everything has been going pretty good with this pregnancy. The last couple weeks my hips started bothering me, I knew it was coming since she has stayed so low. Still haven't gained as much weight this time around but man I feel like it.
