Wagon Rides

Jackson loves to go on rides in his little red wagon, and so does Annie! She and Jackson actually get along in the wagon, which is funny considering she usually doesn't like him to get too close. But they co-exist peacefully in the wagon.


A few close ups of Jackson's adorable face:



We are loving this weather - we hope it stays this way for a LONG while!

New shirt & Funny story

So one of Jeff's college roommates, Doug, sent this shirt for Jackson. It's a little big right now, but Jackson had a good time modeling it. Don't ask why grown men are into Thundercats, because I don't have the answer. :) It is, however, a cute picture of Jackson, so it makes the blog. Jeff was thrilled with the gift, so many thanks to Doug!

Doing his best "look at my shirt" model pose:



And now for your funny story. On Monday, I had my last day of classes, so as usual, Jeff's mom came over to watch Jackson. During the day, she went out to the garage, and Jackson followed behind, shut the garage door, and apparently threw the dead bolt. Jeff's mom was locked out, and Jackson was alone in the house (and enjoying every minute I'm sure). She also didn't have a phone, so she had to go ask neighbors to use their phone to call Jeff. He had to come home and unlock the door. While Jackson was alone in the house, he just watched TV and rode on his rocking horse (Jeff's mom could see him from the patio door). Hopefully that is a look into the future and if we leave Jackson home alone, he will only watch TV and not throw wild parties like his Uncle Brad.

18 months!

Ok, so we're a little behind, since Jackson has been 18 months old since April 1st. But, we had our 18 month well baby visit today, so I decided to just wait until now to post about our 18 month visit too.

Jackson was 29.5lbs and 34 inches! He's a pretty big boy. He got a clean bill of health, and the doctor said he looked great!

Starting the morning off right

Don't you wish your mornings started off with a tantrum and crazy hair? I had no idea what I was missing out on before I had kids!

Is Spring Finally Here?

We'd hate to jinx it, but we are loving the beautiful weather! Jackson and I played outside before lunch/naptime today, and he had a blast, of course.

Don't mind the crazy hair, he is just excited to be OUTSIDE!


Check out the new shoes! They're bright, just in time for spring.


Running around the yard is so much fun!


Notice the letter in his hand - he has been obsessed with letters and numbers recently.

We had such fun outside today (and yesterday too), and we hope everyone else enjoyed the weather too. Hopefully, Spring really is finally here!
