Jackson’s new thing is to pick up every leaf, rock , twig, flower, basically anything on the floor and carry it around until he sees something new. It’s kinda cute…until he tries to pick up abc gum off the floor. eww.

One of the best thing’s about being a parent is getting to do all the “kiddie” stuff again as an adult. I haven’t been pumpkin picking in forever so I was super excited to take Jackson. The weather was beautiful and the BF had off which made it even better. It was the cutest thing seeing Jackson trying to pick up the biggest pumpkins at the farm. After about a half hour he finally settled on a little pumpkin and carried it half way to the cashier. It was a great day and I can’t wait for Halloween =) (more…)
Jackson loves playing peek a boo with the dogs when they are outside (we have 6 of them) in the side yard. It puts a smile on my face to see him get so happy over the smallest things. Forget toys, all you need is a fence and some dogs to keep your baby happy. (more…)
The weather in NY has been crazy. One day it’s fall, the next it’s summer and then we get rain for 3 days straight, so when we do get a beautiful fall day you have to take advantage of it while it lasts. A couple of weeks ago, when the weather started to get cooler, I wanted to take Jackson to the carousel but it was closed=( so we stood and fed the ducks. And the geese. And some huge ducks/geese birds that kinda attacked me. Damn birds. I guess it was my fault, being that I was holding the bread trying to feed a few of the ducks near by not realizing that ALL of the birds in a 2 mile radius where making their way over to us. So yeah, I kind threw the slices of bread I had left, grabbed Jackson and my mom and got the hell out of there. Don’t judge me. Peep some pics—> (more…)
Last weekend me, my mom, Jackson and my sister went to the annual flea market they have in Richmond Town , which is not too far from my house. Staten Island isn’t really known for their flea markets and I’ll tell you why…they kinda suck. There was only a handful of good vendors selling vintage furniture, knick knacks and linens. I did happen to get a a couple of vintage place mats for 5 bucks and a pair of pants for Jackson for a dollar so that was a win. The weather was beautiful, the sun was shinning and there was a cool fall breeze that I’ve been waiting for. I love hoodie weather. Now if only it wasn’t 85 degrees outside again…
This car is one of Jackson’s favorite toys. We got it as a hand me down from a neighbor before he was born and he took his first ride at about 6 months (when he could sit up) and loved it. Now he pushes it himself. Just another reminder of how fast time flies =(

Yup. My little man is on the move. As you can tell by that “cheese” smile, he’s pretty excited. We live across the street from a playground and it’s the daily hangout for me and Jackson. He loves looking up at the trees and picking up (and trying to eat) leaves. I’m so happy for him, now he can run around with the other kids rather then standing there watching from the side lines.

I can’t believe how fast time has flown by. My baby boy is now a toddler…a walking, kinda talking, yelling, clapping, feeding himself, coming into his (more…)
Lil camo Vans!
Baby shoes are a close second to baby socks when it come to my new addiction. Everything is so much cuter when it’s mini. That may explain the 5 chihuahua’s we have at home…yikes!
