Jackson's First Visit to the ER

Jackson had his first visit to the ER this last week - hopefully his last, but let's face it... he's a BOY!  His finger got smashed in the door at the gym.  I heard a crunch then a loud scream.  Fortunately, the crunch was his fingernail (no broken bones!).  Grandma met me at the Hospital to take Annie-Lynn.  Annie-Lynn was very worried about brother.    
It took two nurses to hold him down to get the shot with the numbing stuff into his finger.  They gave him a dog which he named, "Stitches."  His finger looked great after the doctor did her magic.  The only concern now is how the fingernail will grow back... we shall see!



Jackson and his buddies at home - Daddy Bear, Suki and Stiches (and his lineup of cars of course).  They all are helping in the recovery process!

Snow Days at the Webster House!

Jackson and Annie-Lynn played Candy Land and colored inside for hours. We ventured outside and built a snowman. At first, Jackson was more excited about throwing snowballs at the snowman or kicking him over. Once we started giving the snowman a face Jackson joined in. Annie-Lynn was more into pushing her duckies on the swing.

First Blog

This is our family's first "official" blog. The main purpose of the blog will be to keep our eastcoast family up-to-date with what's going on over here and to printout digital photobooks with the year's events (blurb.com). So, we'll see how this goes!  


At this point in our life, we've got two kids:  Jackson (23 months) and Annie-Lynn (7 months). You'll be seeing LOTS of pictures of them and hearing all kinds of stories as I get better with blogging. Jonah's on a "trip" right now. We've been able to talk a lot so it hasn't been that bad. The hardest thing is adjusting with a toddler. This is a picture of Jonah and I before he left. We went on a cruise through Mexico (Cabo July 2010). It was so much fun.  We really started to miss the kids toward the end of it though :)


As for now, I'm keeping busy with various projects around the house and fun activities with the kids. We've had great weather this Summer to keep busy outside. Tomorrow, we are heading to the cabin for Memorial Day Weekend (I think... it might be Labor Day Weekend. I get the two mixed up. Whichever one is in September). All the cousins will be there as well as Uncle Kelley. I got Jackson a puzzle of the United States. He's figured out where California is and knows that Uncle Kelley lives there.

I'll blog more later and add some fun pictures. For now, I gotta get to bed. Goodnight, friends and family!
