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....

Project: Pinterest - {Energy in a Jar}

We like to get/make all of Jackson's therapists a little gift for Christmas as a "Thank-you!" for all of their hard work throughout the year. 

Thanks to Pinterest I found the perfect gift - Energy in A Jar!  I figured it would be very fitting seeing as how Jackson should be getting some of his own "wheels" in the near future and they were going to need all the energy they could get to keep up with him!

The idea and instructions were provided by The Gunny Sack.  I followed it for the most part although some of my items for the jar were a little different. 

All the items we stuffed into the mason jar.  Luckily there were some leftovers for me! ;)
Jackson wanted to help but he had more fun taking everything out of the jar instead of putting it in!
And then he decided that it would be fun to "drink" from the jar.
Added a band of shiny green paper, a Christmas tree label, a bow on top and voila!  The finished product!
Along with the Energy in a Jar we included one of the Christmas cards we got from Amanda at Ten Feet Photo.

I think they turned out great and the therapists seemed to love them!  Too bad I didn't do this January - it could've counted towards my 2013 Bucket List as a Pinterest project.  Oh well, I'm sure there are plenty more projects that I could choose from!  LOL.


Catch ya later,

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

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!
