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....

Pumpkins, Horses and Bowling....Oh My!


Pumpkins, horses and bowling....that pretty much sums up our October.  With the exception of Halloween, of course!

I already posted about our annual trip to the Pumpkin Patch, but that wasn't the end of our pumpkin fun.  



We got an opportunity to visit one of our friends and get some up-close-and-personal time with her horses and visit her cute little produce stand.  Jackson has seen horses before but this time was able to walk right up to them and pet them.  He was a little skiddish at first, but very excited to be around them.  He had fun watching us feed them apples.  We sat him up on one, but he wasn't too fond of that.








I've been thinking about horse therapy and did look into it a little bit.  I contacted a local rehab facility and found out that there wait list is rather large.  I def. think though it's something we may consider when he gets a little older.  It will be great for his core strength!

We also went to the GRSBA bowling party in October.  Jax LOVES to bowl.  However, he HATES to take turns!  LOL.  We had a great time hanging out with our GRSBA family and bowling.  Someone from YNN actually came by to cover the event - and Jax made it on the news!  





Wanted nothing to do with getting an face/hand painting done.  But he did go up and visit with them (all on his own).


Here's a video of the story YNN reported about the bowling event:


There was also a Harvest Party at Jax's preschool.  We went and visited some classrooms, did some craft projects and went down to the gross motor room for some music time.  I was a little worried that Jackson would have some sensitivity to the music, but he really enjoyed it.  He even participated up front during one of the songs.  He had a great time and was upset when it was time to leave each activity.  








All in all, October was a busy, fun month.  We did a lot of fun, family things mixed in a couple of doctor's appointments and birthdays and ended it all on a great note with Halloween.  This year Jax went as a biker!  More on that 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!
