Cinnamon

So heres a cute story for you....

At the beginning of this pregnancy with Baby Timmons #2, I was so nauseous that I was researching home remedies. One that I stumbled upon said when nausea attacks just sniff a jar of cinnamon. For awhile, I just kept the cinnamon out on the counter. Jackson would see me sniff and say, "I want some." I would tell him, "mommy doesnt feel good and it helps her feel better." This went on for a couple weeks until one day Jackson banged his head while playing in the house. He cried and said, "I want cinnamon!" It took me awhile to figure out what he was saying. I was extrememly confused but went ahead and handed him the jar of cinnamon. He proceeded to rub his "boo boo" with the outside of the cinnamon jar and then said, "all better" with a big smile on his face. Apparently the cinnamon makes him feel better too! Now everytime he gets a "boo boo" he asks for cinnamon.

May Days

Once again May proved to be a busy month and once again I'm behind on updating this blog. Things should start to slow now that I am on summer break. The last day of school was June 6th. I'm taking this summer off to travel a bit with my boys and spend some quality time with Jackson because before we know it, it wont just be him anymore. His baby brother or sister will be here in early December! I'm now 13 weeks along. The first few months of pregnancy started out pretty rough with lots of nausea and fatigue, two symptoms I never had with Jackson. I just recently started feeling better as I enter into the second trimester. We will find out the gender in the middle of July! Now that I'm feeling better, I'm ready to enjoy a summer full of fun!

As for May, we enjoyed a visit to see great grandma, celebrating Mother's Day and Memorial Day. We kept it all pretty low key since I was feeling yucky pretty much 24-7! Here are some pictures from the past month or so....
