Our first playdate

Joey and I had originally planned to be in Vegas for the whole weekend of Friday the 13th (to help celebrate the 30th birthdays of our friends Amanda and Lori), but when that trip fell through, I opted to keep that Friday off and drive out to Aledo (about 60 miles from our house - on the SW side of Fort Worth) for a little mother/son playdate with Kim and Ben. At this point in the boys lives, it's really more for Kim and I to catch up since the boys aren't really "playing" yet, although Jackson did have a good time in Ben's exersaucer while Ben looked on. It's really funny because if you know Joey and Stan (Ben's daddy), you'd say it was like watching the 2 of them. Joey is the more boisterous of the 2, always laughing, talking, and carrying on, while Stan is more of the quiet type (most of the time) so seeing Jackson going crazy making all sorts of noise while Ben was content to be held, was cute and funny! We look forward to many more of these and watching the boys grow up together!

The boys being posed for the camera. The first is all of our favorite - it looks like Jackson is waving to the camera.




The 4 of us (all wishing the day could have lasted longer!)


...Til next time, Keep Shuffling!
