Schedules

I love this picture of Jackson--I love his rolls, so adorable!

Two of my Creekside Friends put their daily schedules up on their blogs and I thought--what a wonderful idea! What do I do all day?? I want to be able to remember what I did as a mom with young children, especially with a newborn, because the time is flying by so fast... So.... Here is my schedule (this is really for my memory, you can skip down to the next posts if you want something more interesting to read about my cute kids)... This is all about to change in July/August, when Jackson begins school.
