The life of the Jacksons in May
Seriously this year is flying by. I can't believe it's almost half over. This last month hasn't been too busy. I took a trip to Northern Idaho for my brother's open house and to also take engagement pictures for my other brother. He's getting married in July and then heading to Puerto Rico. Devin and I planned on going and we were just about to purchase our airline tickets when we decided to talk to my doctor. Two months ago we started fertility treatments and are in the process of trying to have another baby. Right now Puerto Rico is in a level 2 warning for the Zika Virus. My doctor advised us that we should not go until they can get it more under control. So now we aren't going to Puerto Rico, but we will still make it to the wedding in Twin Falls.
Devin is working hard everyday. He is doing so good on Thrive and kicking my trash! We decided to add up how much weight he has lost since last year and it's up to 40 lbs! We have been on thrive for 3 months now and loving it! :) We haven't been measuring every week anymore but are setting good goals for months to come. One of the biggest things I have seen in Devin is his attitude change. He's happier, positive, and so much more confident. I love the fact that I can get up and get things done. My doctor has also been super impressed with my weight loss and can see that it's been helping with my PCOS and infertility.

Kamille is 19 months old! She has so much personality in her tiny body. She loves to sit on her potty all the time and takes off her own diaper. She also likes to give me treats when I use the bathroom (she's so sweet). She eats anything she can get her hands on and loves to drink milk. Lately she's been having trouble sleeping in her own room. It seems at 4 in the morning she's knocking on our door and climbs right between us. I think it's because all the rest of her teeth are coming in and I'm hoping that after they are all through we can have some better nights. She is talking and signing a lot better now. In sign language she can say: "More, Please, Thank You, Milk, Mama, Dada, and Kitty" She is super close to signing Grandma and Grandpa. She is talking up a storm but usually can imitate us. Once in a while she will say stuff on her own like "Oh Boy!" that one cracks me up or when she says "Mine" it's all sweet and cute.
With our house we have slowed down but haven't stopped. We put the crown up in our living room and it's looking beautiful! :) All I need to do is paint trim and put in new carpet. Kamille's room is all re-painted! We have also been working a lot outside. It's been fun mowing the lawn, watering roses, raspberries, and blueberries. Right now our yard is being taken over by dandelions, so we have been working on spraying them. I think buying this house has been one of our best investments. It's teaching us a lot and saving us money!
