A busy early spring weekened.

Maddie and Anna went to a birthday party at Wonderland Farms last Saturday. They loved riding the ponies, feeding goats and going on a hay ride. I ran my first 5k earlier that morning. It was a lot of fun. I didn't set any land speed records but I did finish, which I consider an accomplishment. I plan on running in some more races this year. Jack didn't have such a good weekend though. We had him at the Children's Clinic both Saturday and Sunday for blood work to find out why his jaundice has not gone away. After a long few days (and nights) they have determined that he is going to be just fine.
Ride em Cowgirl!!

She's a natural.

Poor little Jack is wiped out.

A lazy afternoon in the Simpson house

Maddie and Anna are loving being big sisters. Jack is growing and changing every day. He moved in to his crib just a couple of days ago. He is sleeping for a few hours at a time and although I get up, change diapers and pass him over to Briar. She is doing the majority of the work and not sleeping much. She is being a trooper during the week when I am working. My dirty work comes on the weekends. Its tough but there is nothing like these first few weeks.
Anna's class did an art project to honor the Doctor himself.
Maddie and Anna love to talk to their little brother.

I think he tries to talk to them too.

A priceless moment.

Jack's busy week

Baby Jack had a busy week. He had two trips to the pediatrician, one trip to mommy's doctor, lunch out with mom and dad and a trip to Southport to meet Uncle Ashby, Aunt Tracy and cousin Griffin. I was lucky enough to stay home for a week after we came home from the hospital. It was great to get some quality family time.
Briar has her hands full!

"Come on Jack, I dare you!"


Wet slobbery kisses


Shhhhhaaaarrrrrkkkkk!!!

A visit from the Tooth Fairy

Maddie lost her first tooth last week. She was so excited and of course the Tooth Fairy came to visit and left her some cold hard cash.


Strangely enough her cousin Lilly lost the same tooth earlier that week. Weird huh??
