Ear Infection .... ouch:(

Well, the dreaded day has finally come. Jordan has her first ear infection. She has handled it well and only been a little fussy compared to what she could have been! She is feeling better already and I hope this will not be an ongoing thing with her. Hope everyone has a blessed week.

6 month check-up


I always carry way to much stuff with me and I am trying to only take what is necessary. I took my purse in because it everything I needed except a toy. We did not wait long. We read books and looked at the awesome room, but the best was playing with the paper. She loved it!
Dr. Owens you are great. Thank you for taking great care of me.


Today, Jordan had her 6 month appointment with Dr. Owens. I always forget to take pictures but I was ready for this trip! She is doing great! She is a good patient even when it hurts. She did calm down after her shots as soon as I held her. When she turned around and saw the nurse she started crying again :( I have to turn my head so I do not see the shot, other than that I am fine which is great for me. I was so excited to not have had to go to the office in between the 4 month and 6 month check up appointments. Jordan has been healthy and doing wonderfully.

New Beginnings

Today's Reflections...

Jordan turned 6 months old today and I can not believe it. Where does the time go? She is sweet and funny. She loves pears, reading books, and playing with her friends at Mrs. Nina's house. We are blessed to have a wonderful place for her to be while I am at work.

I start school tomorrow. Well really I never left, but that is a whole story in itself and we will not go into that. I am looking forward to new beginnings this year at school. I will be teaching 8th grade math. I am ready for the change. I will miss being in the learning lab with Karen & Cynthia but will still see them everyday! I love Ella who will be taking my place, so that makes me feel better!

This summer has been a bit rough but great at the same time. We have had a ton of visitors and that was fun to say the least. Ryan & Chrissie got married so welcoming a new family member is a blessing. Jillian has been here and we have a great time no matter what we are doing. She helped with Jordan's Dr appointments and the wedding. Diana has been here all summer working at Schlitterbahn. We are all going to miss her when she is gone. Aunt Rosemary, Lauren, & Hayden have been around and are so much fun! I love having family here. Justin, Brianna, Leslie, & Jerod were here today.

I feel as though I did not get to be with everyone as much as I would have liked, but just because school starts does not mean that I will disappear. I better get to bed and rest before tomorrow.

I hope everyone has a blessed week! Stay in touch please. I love keeping up with everyone through technology!

6 months old already...I can not believe it!

Justin, Brianna, Jerod, & Leslie were in town today and had fun playing with Jordan. She was exhausted but loved everyone's attention.



Boys will be boys ... playing with toys...

Good Saturday Morning













Jordan is full of smiles in the morning. I just love her. I forgot I had this hat and decided to try it on her to see if it fit. It fits perfectly and I thought she looks so cute. As you can see, she can sit up on her own. She puts her knees underneath when she is playing and rolls to her side and pushes or scoots forward. Crawling is next. I better get ready!

Geronimo Fun

We went to the Grain Bin with Mom, Aunt Rosemary & Hayden. They had not been there so we decided to show them the excitement and fun in Geronimo on a Friday night.




Swimming with Brianna

We went to the Landa Park Pool this afternoon. We had a great time and as always Jordan loved it!

Thank You

I just wanted to say Thank You to everyone who took care of Jordan this summer and helped out! I am amazed at how much of a "family" (family & friends) we have to love us! We are blessed beyond belief and thank God for each of you every day! I feel as though I do not say that enough and wanted y'all to know we really appreciate everything.

Elizabeth!

How cute are these pictures! I just love Jordan and how she interacts with everyone. I wonder where she gets that from? I love you too Elizabeth!


Welcome to Geronimo







Tonight we introduced Hayden and Aunt Rosemary to the Grain Bin and live music Geronimo style! Jordan is such a sweet baby and loves everyone! She lets people hold her and play with her...I am truly blessed!

The Comal River










Girls trip down the Comal River! I ca not believe that this is only time I have floated the Comal this summer. I used to float at least once a week. Oh my how life changes in the blink of an eye ..... single, then married then a mom!

Jordan listening to Joey play guitar




I just love Jordan's facial expressions while Joey was playing the guitar. She was into the music for sure. She does have clothes I promise....she was just about to take a bath.
