Month 6 - July 2009:

Well we haven't posted in a while, but Jackson has been enjoying the past few months. He is almost 7 months old and loves standing with the aid of anything he can find. He moved from rocking on all fours to crawling. At first his crawling consisted of lots of faceplants but now he is zipping around the room and has forced baby-proofing upon us. His first baby tooth has broken through the gums and his tongue is exploring it throughout the day. He LOVES eating his fruits and vegetables in particular apples/blueberries and sweet potatoes. He "talks" a lot and lets out grunts of happiness which results in our laughter, which results in his laughter, then more laughter from us. His primary word is mama, which makes his mom's heart melt everytime she hears it.

This month he took his first steps in the Pacific Ocean and loved the feel of the sand under his feet and the waves splashing up his legs. We have a beach baby on our hands!

He constantly keeps us laughing and melts our hearts with toothless smile. We couldn't be more proud.

Jackson's Third Month - March Photos

Jackson hit the 3 month milestone and has a new bedtime routine and is sleeping in his own crib and room. He is also more alert and very talkative (see other video post) at times. He loves his activity mat and talks with and grasps his animal friends. He also responds to smiles with the most lovely, sweet smile. This month he had visits from new friends and both sets of grandparents, he even celebrated a few birthday parties.

We are very proud parents and loving every day with Jackson.


Below is a link of pictures from March.

Jackson's Second Month - February Photos


We are a bit late posting photos. February came and went quickly. He celebrated both his parent's birthdays this month and had his first outing to the zoo.


Jackson grew more responsive to his parents and family. After two months he weighed in at 11 lbs, 15 ozs and 23 3/4 inches.

Below is a link to various pictures of his second month.

Jackson Learning How to Say Things

Amy sat Jackson down on the changing table and he wanted to say lots of things. We captured lots of different intonations on video, we are just not sure what he was trying to say.
