10 years ago....

(mind you I started this post at 8 pm...it took time finding the pictures...LOL) as I was saying...

I was sitting in Brady's Basketball Banquet...He was a Senior....and the WHOLE time...I was having contractions! 10 years ago.....on March 1st.....at 10 pm...I went to the Hospital to be induced with my first Child...this perfect little boy....

 

Dallin Rhett Jackson

March 2, 2000

8lbs  21" born at 2:26 pm

Is he CUTE or what...he had a bit of an owie on his check from the forceps....and a cute little cone head from the vacuum...(yes sounds fun I know!...not) BUT...what a Cutie Patootie! We were so very excited to get this little boy! He had quite the fan club waiting in the hallway on the day he was born and came in handy for an excuse for uncle Brady and his pals to skip school! 3 weeks later my cousin Jaxson was born in the same hospital (lived in Ephriam) we have always been great pals (and miss him lots now that he lives in Iowa) 

Dallin is one month old and Jaxson is a few weeks old.....
