My camera was forgotten at my parents house this evening...so pictures will come tomorrow!
This afternoon I completely rearranged the house and cleaned out a bunch of the babies toys! I scrubber the floor and dusted the house.
Then my parents pulled in about 330 pm and we unloaded the truck into the house! It went very quickly! The dining room set, couch, dresser, sewing machine, .....and on and on all fit perfectly!
My parents are "super parents"! The emptied my childhood home in 7 days...drove to FL from PA in 2 days...with a stop over night in NC to visit Bryan and Stacey....they stopped at their house and emptied some things out and made room for two twin beds that were new from their house here so they could move in their king size bed from PA...unloaded here...headed back to their house and unloaded a complete bedroom set and the heaviest stuff BY FAR...then we headed out to Stavro's for dinner...we came home and in a few minutes my parents show up again because they forgot to bring some stuff...and they help put our dining room table together and the hutch together! Can you believe it??????????/ Me neither! I swear they are super heros!

If i know them...they went home and probably put their bedroom together over there!

Well, coffee in the morning at my mothers! YAY!
I will add some photos tomorrow's post!
Have you checked out my other blog lately??? I have my high school photos scrapped! Too funny....

Here's one photo I will leave you with today...

Blog ya later!

Pumpkin Patch

You know...I can't get Jay to stay still for a moment, nor can I get him to look at the camera. He is way too busy and involved in his own agenda to be bothered with me!
With that said, here are some cute photos of the side of his head...of him looking at dirt...of him picking up stuff and eating it.

This scraecrow kind of freaked him out. He just couldn't figure it out! Too funny!

Then it was on to daddy's office to visit since we were nearby. Jay ransacked the place and we left for lunch! It was so nice meeting up with Michael and connecting over lunch!
Stopped at my friend hattie's and she offered Jay some little tykes toys and let's just say he loved it...for 15 minutes. The carts 15 minutes of fame below:

After the mail arrived, I found another card for Jay's 1st birthday from Great Grandpa Red in Illinois!

For those of you counting, we are down to 8 days!!!!
Plan for his party the 1st of Nov. That is a Saturday. But you can bet, I am having a little cake for him on the 29th! :o)
This afternoon, I picked up Jayda from Chorus at 3 and headed over to her scout leaders house to pay for her camp this weekend. Jayda is going to girl scout camp!!! Exciting! We went to Target to get a Mess Kit and Mesh Bag. FUN!
Children doing homework and Jay babbling in my ear in his high chair munching on cheerios! His fav!
Thanks for checking out theblog and being so patient. This all but takes me forever to do!

Blue Springs

World Famous for the manatees, this park is a beautiful "Old Florida" place to experience the great outdoors! Although, the water is still way to warm elsewhere for the manatees to be hanging out in the spring. This spring is located just off of the St. John's River. It is one of only a few rivers to flow South to North for those of you who may not know...

We wanted to get out and enjoy the "cold front" that came through Florida last evening! It is only 76* today, although the sun makes it feel warmer! We were going to go out on the boat today but the winds are at or above 20 knots!

We put on our shoes and hats and headed out! The day could not have been more perfect and we were excited to "play"! Jay just was kind of there. Not real aware of a playground nearby or what it all meant. He was happy to be out and about and giggled when I put him down and let him walk for the first time. He is so precious and brings such joy to our lives!

The sign says ... no diving!

We reached the top of the springs and looked out over the bubbling beautiful water!

On the way back down, we could see several huge spiders...much like the one we saw in Ocala last weekend.
A cute squirrel stood and stared at us and the baby caught a sight of his first squirrel.

There was wildlife all over.
Even an otter...

Then we were off to the old home on the property built in 1850.

He was having a ball walking down through the grass!

Here's what Mike does when he gets a hold of a camera!
There were some really cute shots of the baby and I together. I loved it. I am usually the one behind the camera!
His FIRST swing ride!!!

You will see in this video clip, he is not real happy...ignore my poor videography! But, even more so...notice how the baby has the hang of swinging!!! Pure genius! hahaha

Then, we were off to the slide! Same response...but fun for me! HAHAHA
