Memorial Day Weekend

We had such a fun holiday weekend!!! Friday we headed to Galveston to spend the weekend at the Smith's beach house. Jackson absolutely LOVED the beach! We enjoyed playing games, eating good food/sand, being lazy, playing at the beach, and just being together. We headed back home Sunday afternoon and cooked out at my parent's house Sunday night with my dad, Ryan, and Kathryn. Monday we sent my dad off to Europe (we will miss him) and then spent the afternoon/evening with friends. How fun!

Saying Goodbye

Jackson can't get enough hugs

What are we going to do??? GranMartha left today for a whole MONTH! Jackson and I usually eat lunch with her on a daily basis and hang out about everyday. This will be a big change. We hope you have a wonderful trip...we'll miss you!

10 Months Old

Our "baby" is 10 months old!!! He is such a big kid now. I absolutely love spending my days with this little guy. He is Mr. Personality all the time. He loves getting people's attention and making them laugh! He is becoming much more interactive and is just so much fun. 

10 Things I Love About Jackson:

1. the way he smiles at us when he sees us from across the room
2. his slobbery kisses on the lips
3. the way he cuddles with me when he gets sleepy
4. his happy personality
5. the way he gets excited when we sing songs (ex: no more monkeys jumping on the bed)
6. the way he practically jumps out of my arms and laughs out loud when he sees his dad
7. his love of playing with any kind of ball (preferably golf balls)
8. his new love of sleep!
9. the way he loves his family (including Charlie the dog)
10. the way he follows me around the house...I think it's so funny!

I can't believe how quickly our Jackson is growing up. He is now taking 2 bottles a day, crawling, standing up, cruising, actually playing, occasionally eating food (when he's in the mood), over his separation anxiety (for now), sleeping most nights, and just loving life. What a joy he is!!!
