3 Months today

Today my sweet little monkey is 3 months old!! I can't believe how big she is getting! She also at a fun stage....she laughs and smiles a LOT, which I love! Especially first thing in the morning....it helps get my day going! She has done really well with waking up in the morning so I can feed her and get her ready to go to Aunt Joyce's. Most mornings she is already kind of awake, but today she was sound asleep when I went in to wake her up.

On Saturday we went to Codi's 2nd birthday party! Amy had the party decorated super cute, and Miss Codi was even cuter in her Minnie Mouse dress. Maggie had a great time seeing her new friends at the party! Next year she will be able to run around and play with them!
After that, Jackson and I went to my back to school party while Maggie stayed the night with Nana. We spent the evening visiting with my friends from Northside that I miss SOOOOOOO much! We also did a little karoke....which was fun even though I can't sing! haha Sunday was a LAZY day! This momma can't handle staying up past ten anymore! haha

As for my job....so far so good! The ladies in our office have been awesome with answering the 100s of questions I have had and with showing us the ropes! Marcia and I went to Louise ISD yesterday so I could meet the principal and all the other ladies I will be working with. They too are super nice and I know I will get along great with them!!
I will say that working, trying to workout, being a wife, and a being a mom can be exhausting!! haha I work all day and then when I get home I try to cook super and tend to Maggie....and go to sleep at 10. (Getting up at 5:30...is not cool!) This leaves me little time to visit with friends and family....but I know it will get better once I'm use to it all!

This weekend Jackson is going to a bachlor party so it will be me and Mags all alone!! Looks like I will get some cuddle time in!

Last Day

Today is my last day home with my sweet baby girl! I start my new job tomorrow - I'm excited about it, yet am sad that I don't get to spend my days with Maggie.
Over the past 11 weeks, I've had MANY moments that I will ALWAYS cherish!! Below is a list of my favorite moments that make my heart melt....

1. Holding Maggie for the 1st time
2. Seeing Jackson hold her for the first time
3. Watching Jackson play with her - no more macho man!
4. When she is crying, I pick her up and she stops - she knows me and NEEDS me!
5. Hearing her "poor poor pitiful me" cry - sooo cute!
6. Her SMILE!!
7. Seeing her reaction when I walk in her room in the morning...she sees me and smiles
8. Listening to her "talk" - to family and friends and her toys
9. Bath time - she LOVES it! Her face when pouring the water on her head is priceless!
10. Watching her sleep....she is soo peaceful!

I could go on and on...but will stop there! :)
So everyone say a little prayer for to survive my first day at the new j-o-b!

Here are a few pics.....
