Midland visit

We made the trip to Midland last weekend to meet Camryn Faye and visit family. This will be my last trip before our little girl arrives, and we sure enjoyed it. Camryn is tiny and precious, and Brandon is convinced that Jackson was never that small! I guess we are both in for a rude awakening in March because compared to Jackson, a newborn is the tiniest thing you have ever seen.  One prime example was me changing Jackson who was squirming all over the place and trying to escape naked to run around the room while Camryn was sleeping quietly.  She is such a sweet little girl and sleeps so well for Brittany which will let both of them rest up and recuperate. 
I really enjoyed holding a newborn again and the cousins seemed to be bonding already. Jackson showered Camryn with lots of kisses even though I could not seem to capture them on camera.  And when I held her on my lap, my little girl would kick her and Camryn would jump and kinda kick back...already playing with each other! Something tells me there will be lots of fun times ahead with Jackson and the little ladies. 
Bubba and Brittany are doing really well with their new baby, and she is very content to say the least. Brittany always has her dressed in something cute which I am sure will only continue in the future. I better take lessons on that since I am used to a little boy who is perfectly happy going shirtless and looks a bit disheveled on a regular basis.  Something tells me we will switch gears without too much trouble though. 
We headed home on Sunday and have been resting and getting back in the swing of things here. Brandon has class this weekend and next weekend, so he has been busy working on papers, etc. Jackson is starting to get a bit clingy to me this week, so maybe he senses that life is about to change.  I am trying to spend a lot of time with him to ease his mind. He was sweet to Camryn and pretty much did his own thing while we were in Midland, but I am thinking it might be a little harder for him when the baby doesn't disappear after a few days! I hope he will adapt pretty quick though...we will see.
