HAPPY BIRTHDAY BABY BOY!!!

Happy Birthday to you! Happy Birthday to you! Happy Birthday DEAR JAY COOPER! Happy Birthday to you... And as his sister says... you look a monkey and smell like one too! Ha!

Awwwww! My sweet baby boy is ONE today! I cannot believe that it has been a year since he was born! My sister in law emailed me earlier and said..."OUT and FINE"... that was the text that Tony sent her when Jay Cooper came into this world. I didn't even know that until today, I was actually out completely when he was born so I missed everything. He's the sweetest, silliest, climbing-est boy ever! ha He's everything that I ever expected a boy to be! He's got on his B-day tshirt today and I sent little mini cupcakes to daycare for all his little friends. This is just how much he has grown and changed in 1 year...Well, the first pic was from January, I don't have one on my computer at work any earlier than Jan BUT still look how he has GROWN!

Time Surely flies! I was sent from the Dr's office to the hospital because the baby's HEART BEAT could not be detected AT ALL! At 11:15 I walked through the doors of the ER and at 11:33 my sweet boy was born w/ no problems! I call that some serious work from above!!!!!!! And I THANK MY AWESOME GOD daily for it!

Here's a few other pics from the weekend.... We took Ruby (the dog) to the Pet Parade Saturday morning and the other pics are from the Country Pumpkin in Caledonia.

Notice sneeky Pete in the back ground!

And finally... My little climbing helper.... IN THE DISHWASHER! ha

Almost Friday!

Just a little piece of advice... If you are ever asked to DOG SIT, and you're house is already a circus, politely DECLINE!!!!!!!!! ha Tony tells me that I get us in the biggest messes doing "favors" for friends. The 4 month old little girl PUG is just precious but HHHYYYPPPEEERRR! She runs circles around Jaycie, Jay Cooper and Harley (our inside dog). I was late for work this morning because she had us all off our "morning routine"! I couldn't find my camera last night to snap some pics of Ruby (the pug) and Jay Cooper but that were so cute playing. She had her little Halloween dress on ... I will get some pics maybe tonight and post them.
Well, Super Duper Jay Cooper will be 1 whole year old this time next week! He is completely MOBILE... walking everywhere! We laugh at him b/c we think he just walks to be walking... No where in particular that he is trying to go, he just walks constantly. He has completely recovered from the MRSA! That was sooo scary. Hospitals and Babies don't jive... thanks to EVERYONE for the prayers, calls and visits.
Jaycie Rose is a New Hope Pee Wee Cheerleader this year. I need to snap some pics and post them for all to see. She's so cute in her uniform. She has games on Saturday and so far her little football boys are undefeated. We have found though, that 3rd grade is a very tough year. K-2 was a breeze but 3rd grade brings lots of homework and studying which she is not used to having to do. And 3rd grade math is a complete STRANGER to Jaycie! (I am looking for a math tutor in New Hope, if anyone may know someone. We have our teacher/parent meeting Monday so I will find out more then.) She is really struggling in math...and anyone reading this that went to school w/ me... YES, SHE GETS IT HONEST!!! I literally had to get my calculator out the other night to make sure I was telling her right. Ha Bless her heart!
Well, I have yakked enough, I will get back to work. Just wanted to update everyone the kids and life at the McDill house.

Roll Tide!!!

I'm dumb!

Well... Hello everyone!!! I am "THE BIGGEST BLOGGING DUMMY" ever! I have played (at work) on this computer since 1:30, it's now 4:41 and I still have the ugliest background and colors of anyone! BUT.... I have a great ole friend that lives in Jackson now that has started her "OWN" blogging thingy online and I wish her little "SMART BUTT" some luck! haha Maybe she will sorry for me and HELP MY BLOG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I will add pics and tell you about my family at some point this weekend as for now, I have wasted the whole afternoon and am ready to go home! Have a grrat weekend!

Have a Safe and Happy 4th!!!!

Super Duper Jay Cooper and Jaycie Rose wanted to wish everyone a safe and happy 4th of July!!

Aunt Lisa is coming in for the long weekend so we will be grilling out and shooting fireworks with her. We hope to have a day of leisure in the pool! Oh speaking of pool... Jay Cooper loves the water!!

He is a water loving little man!

Gotta get back to work.

It's been a month and a half already???

I had no idea that it had been a month and half since I had posted! So Sorry!

First I will share a few of our beach pics... And tell you alittle about that wonderful weekend. WE ALL had the stomach virus!!!!! ALL OF US!!! Somehow we still managed to have a pretty good time. The weather was WONDERFUL and I had never before seen the water in Gulf Shores so clean and clear. We shopped, ate, shopped and ate some more, laid on the beach, swam in the hotel pool and got in the hot tub at night. Jaycie loved the sun and the sand and Super Duper took a long nap under the beach umbrella but he still got to feel the sand between his toes...

Time to go to bed but I will post more tomorrow.

Sunhine, Sand and a Suntan!!!

We are off to the beach this weekend! We are leaving out early Friday morning going to Gulf Shores. We are all so ready to get away. Aunt Lisee is tagging along to "help" with the kids! Ha She more like takes over with Jay Cooper and Jaycie both... I usually don't even have to change a diaper when she's around.
Jaycie will be turning 8 on the 25th of May so we are kinda going to celebrate her B-day while we are at the beach, then on June 1st, she is having her big swim party at Slip N Dip~ Just CANNOT believe that she is almost 8! (I am getting soooo old) And Super Duper Jay Cooper will be 7 months old on the 15th! Crazy how time flies when your having fun!
And fun is definately what I am having....... Non stop allday but it is so worth it when Super Duper gives me that BIG SWEET smile and touches my face!!! He keeps me on my feet but he is the absolute sweetest baby I have ever seen! He NEVER cries, sleeps all night everynight and is just as happy and content as he can be!!
I am sooo blessed to have 2 wonderful children and a great husband... not to mention the "johnny on the spot" babysitters next door and great inlaws that also love to help out.
Oh... gotta tell you about Jaycie's 2nd grade class! They scored the HIGHEST on the end of year Math, Reading and Language tests of all the 2nd grade classes! And Jaycie scored the highest on the Language test in her class! She was sooo proud and so was I!!
Well, I better get back to cleaning. I am home today with 2 sick children. Both have the stomach virus so I am disinfecting the house so that hopefully Tony and I will not get it.
Check out the new pics!! Love the Chubby Naked Baby Pics!! haha!
