Five AWESOME Facts About JJ!

Fact One:

JJ was born on August 6, 2013 at Beaufort Memorial Hospital. The day before I had him I was scheduled to have a 38 week appointment and as we were leaving the appointment my water broke. Yup! As we were leaving I felt a GUSH and then I look over to my husband and replied: "I'm not sure but I think I either peed myself or my water broke..." Sure enough, my water broke! We raced home and grabbed my hospital bag and headed to the Labor and Delivery. Fast forward to the morning of August 6, 2013, James Joseph was born! 8 lbs and 20.5 inches long!

Fact Two:

JJ has always been fascinated with dinosaurs. It's funny because when we came up with our Registry I picked a dinosaur crib set. Who would've thought that we would have a crazy child who grew up loving dinosaurs. Our dear friends from Beaufort, South Carolina even made his initials into dinosaurs for his bedroom -- we still have it hanging up in his bedroom as we speak!

Fact Three:

He has a love/hate relationship with Chucky. Yes -- you read that right. We were going through Netflix one evening and he saw Chucky's face plastered all over the feed and he insisted to his dad that he watch it. You know what my husband did? Yup, let him watch it because "he wasn't scared." A few months later our favorite Barber bought him a Chucky doll for Christmas because he absolutely LOVED him.. Turns out he's afraid of him haha. He locks him in his playroom closet but still wants to watch the movie on Netflix (I haven't let him since) -- it's the darnest thing.

Fact Four:

He is a "mutt" like me. I am Irish, English, French Canadian, Welsh, Okinawan and his dad is Italian, Irish, and Native American -- he's just one huge melting pot! He definitely resembles my side of the family with the reddish brown hair and dark eyes. He may look like me but his attitude is ALL daddy!

Fact Five:

He's such a goofy, sweet, adorable little man who absolutely LOVES pajamas. He has a million pairs of pajamas from Dragon Ball Z, Pikachu, Spiderman, Batman -- you name it, he has it! We started doing movie nights on Friday evenings where we bring out the futon and lay down to watch movies with our bucket of popcorn and hot cocoa. Despite loving pajamas and movie night he likes to run around in his underwear, we have dubbed him "Captain Underpants."

I can't believe that we have a five year old, where has the time gone?
