15 month appointment

Our camera is being fixed currently, so no cute new pictures to go with this update. Jackson had his 15 month appointment today, and he did very well. The doctor said he's healthy and looks fantastic. He also said that he is right on developmentally. Also, he's still a big boy! He was 33.5 inches tall, and he weighed 27lbs. So he's grown since his 12 month appointment, but like all toddlers he has slowed down in his growth a bit. His height is greater than the 97th % and he's dropped down to the 75th-90th percentile for weight. He used to be in the 90-95th percentile for weight.

The good news is that today he had his last shots until he is five! Despite his cold, he did really well, and only tried to get the nurse to leave a few times by saying "bye bye." I think he knew she gives the shots!

A Belated Merry Christmas!

Before we tore into the gifts - the wrapped gifts are from us and the gifts from Santa are in the Santa bag.


Jackson would rather "play" pool than open his gifts.


So we got him interested in one of his gifts - his toolbox from Santa.


Instead of opening more gifts, Jackson wanted to cook us breakfast.


Is this all for ME??????


He got a little closer to check out all of his loot.


Sweet, a pirate potato head! Christmas is the best!


We had a great Christmas, and I'm sorry this update is so late. I have more family pictures that I'll post later. Jackson opened a few gifts himself, but for the most part, that job was left to Jeff and me. Although, I am happy to report that now that we are home, and the gifts are out of the boxes and available to play with, he is much more into them! We hope everyone else had a great holiday!
