Welcome! Welcome!

So, what’s my blog about? A little bit of this, a little bit of that, tons about Jackson and a sprinkle of Spina Bifida awareness. Why? Because that’s our life and we want to share it with you. Hope you enjoy!

    So, on Monday Jackson was super active, like rolling, flipping, kicking all day.  It was the weirdest thing.  He had never been that active....

Pardon Me While I Get Sappy for a Minute

So, as I come back downstairs after putting Jax to bed I see Jason snoozing on the couch and Duke snuggled up beside him and can't help but think "I have a great life.  I love all of my boys and am so lucky to have a wonderful husband, an adorable baby boy and the most loyal pup ever".  Mind you this was briefly replaced with a "Why am I the only person awake!?!" thought, but it reverted back to sappy thoughts quickly.


I took this one last night.  Both Jax and Duke were Daddy's boys.
 Jason and I have been together for 10 years and married for 4.  But, I've had a crush on him since 7th grade (that was 18 years ago!).  Way to date myself I know.  And I'm sure we've known each other since way before then in some weird cosmic way.  Case in point, we were born 11 days apart.  If I remember correctly, he had to stay in the hospital an extra couple of days.  So, while we probably weren't in the hospital at the exact same time, I'd like to think that this was a sign that we were meant to be.

We didn't start going out until after high school (a whole other story in itself, lol).  I think we both often wonder if we'd still be together if we had actually dated throughout high school.  I honestly don't know the answer.  But I like to think that "everything happens for a reason" and I'm so happy that we are together now.

He is a hardworking, take-no-crap-from-anyone type of guy and I love that about him.  I'll let you in on a little secret though....he may come across as a hard-as-nuts tough guy, but really he's a giant teddy bear (at least to Jax, Duke and I).  And as he reads this, he'll probably shoot me a look of "really?  you wrote that!" but whatever.  It's the truth.  I know this it totally cliche, but he's my best friend.  Sorry Marianne, Monica and Krysten, but he knows more secrets than you do :)  We have similar interests, ideals, etc. and I think we are the perfect pair.  He's the yin to my yang, the salt to my pepper, the....well, you get the picture. 


I would also like to point out that he read my blog last night and complained that I haven't mentioned him at all, which I dispute.  I'm pretty sure he's on here somewhere at least in pictures if nothing else ;)  But that isn't why today's post is about him.  I really did walk downstairs and have these thoughts.  So, I thought I would share.

We just celebrated our 4th anniversary last week (September 30th).  Interesting fact:  This is also Jason's parents anniversary and Jason's grandparents anniversary.  I so happy to be apart of a family tradition like that.  Three generations all got married on September 30th.  I just think that's cool.  I would also like to point out that the awesome wife that I  am agreed to leave the church on our wedding day in a Peterbuilt and dance to Elvis.  You see people, it's all about compromise!  :)



I love you Jason and I look forward to many, many more years together!  Now get off my back about not talking about you :P

Another Smith Family Blog


I started this blog as a way to keep family and friends, near and far, up-to-speed on what was going on with Jackson. Jackson was born with Spina Bifida and Hydrocephalus. When he was born, he had to have surgery to close the lesion on his back and then had a follow-up a month later for his shunt placement. My goal was to make sure everyone got an updateon how things were going and what better way to mass-update then the good ole interweb ;) And since everyone isn't on FB (WHAT!?!), I figured that a blog would be the next best thing.


Since then, the blog has morphed into a plethora of stuff ranging from date nights, favorite recipes (okay, haven't posted any recipes yet, but they are in the works), our dog, our house, my awesome hubby, projects from Pinterest that I actually complete, SB awareness and what's going on in Jackson's world. I'll be honest, it's 73% about Jackson and raising a child with SB, at least according to my last calculation. Oh, and pictures. Lots of pictures.

About Me

My photo
Robin
Gorham, New York, United States
I’m a notorious procrastinator, a Martha Stewart wanna-be (minus the orange jump suit), and I have a high attention to detail, although some people might just consider me a control freak, perfectionist pain-in-the-arse! Oh yeah, and I’m a tad sarcastic. I've been married to my best friend for 5 years and we have one amazing little toddler, Jax. Our other "baby" is a 4 year old Great Dane who thinks he's a lap-dog. All in all, I love my life!
