Jackson Funnies

Thank Goodness for this kid! He is so funny!

Random funnies lately:
Me: Do you want to read three books tonight? (we do everything in 3- because he's 3 years old)

Jack: Not tonight. I want two books.

Me: (Surprised he wants less books) but you're three!

Jack: But mom- its tuesday! (He pronounced it two's-day)

He is so clever!



Jackson kept telling me he was thirsty and I said we'd walk over to the drinking fountain in just a minute. About a minute later he said "I'm not thirsty anymore, my breath made me not thirsty" So funny



On a really bad sick day I'd been crying and feeling so sick and he crawled over to me and climbed on my lap and said "mom, you have beautiful shiny eyes."


Melted my heart right there...



I dry-heave all day long, rarely throw up, but even thinking about food or thinking about a bad smell can set me off gagging and dry-heaving until my whole body aches. During this time Jackson usually imitates me heaving and makes all the sounds and facial expressions with me, which usually has Kevin laughing at us pretty hard.


As I was strapping him into his carseat he was telling me about all his super powers, "mom, I am so strong, I can pull things really good, and look mom, I can MAKE you close your eyes"- then I saw a finger headed into my eye, but guess what?! I closed my eye as it got poked, how did he know that would make me close my eye! If that wasn't magic, I don't know what is!!!


As I was putting deoderant on he asked me what that part on my body was called so I told him it was called my armpit, so now anywhere we have a moving body part he calls it a pit, so like a kneepit, elbowpit and so on.....
Then my favorite is:
In our hotel elevator last week after spending three days at Disneyland he said to me
"I am so freaking sick of Disneyland"
WOW, didn't think for a kid who gets pushed around in a stroller all day that statement would come out of his mouth! after 3 days in the sun I was a little freaking sick of it too :)

What the....???


Okay, so this wasn't supposed to be able to happen for us... After Kevin had cancer three years ago (Yippie, still clean) he had a sperm analysis done at his one year mark and it showed his sperm count to be EXTREMELY low (his was 4 million, and the average is 300 million, plus the mobility on the 4 million was terrible). The doctor told us it is really rare for it to recover and it would be virtually impossible for us to get pregnant naturally (like under a 2 percent chance). At the beginning of this year we felt very strongly it was time to have a baby so we started to see our fertility doctor. We were planning to do our first fertility treatment this summer, but had a miracle and ended up getting pregnant naturally!!!
We were so shocked- I mean it seriously took Kevin two weeks to believe it... First he accused me of cheating (jokingly), then he thought it was a hysterical pregnancy (serious- he thought this) but by the time the ALL-DAY LONG sickness hit full force he finally believed it...
I am so stinking sick I can barely function most days but we are so excited and wondering what happened...
Anyway, we wanted to share the news with all of our friends and family!
