Pumpkin Patch and Aunt Dana

This past week my sister Dana came to visit. Its always great to see her and we always have fun when she is here. Unfortunetly Jackson is going through a painfully shy stage, so he took awhile to warm up to him. While she was here we went to a pumkin patch with her, my mom, and Devon and her family.

Domestic Engineer

So I have offically been a stay-at-home mom (I prefer domestic engineer) for two whole weeks . Before quitting I had all these grand ideas that once I was home full time my home would constantly be spotless, I would serve a gourmet dinner everynight, Jackson would soon be reading novels and speaking several languages...you get the picture. Unfortunetly none of that has happened. Regardless, its been great to be able to spend more time with my little boy. I did join I quilting club, I figured quilting is about as domestic as you can get.

My Next Career: Comedian

Jackson makes me feel like I am the funniest person around. It doesnt usually take much to get a laugh out of him, especially when he is tired. Here are some videos we took of him proving my comedic genius.


Too cute!

Nerd!

Jackson loves to grab at Gus' glasses. So the other night we decided to let him wear them. Doesn't he look like such a cute nerd?

My New Adventure

Exciting news....as of September 26th, I will offically be a full-time stay-at-home-mom. I cant wait. I am going to miss all my friends at work, and I may actually eventually miss work itself, but I cant wait to be with my little boy full time. Here are some recent pictures of my little buddy.

1st Haircut!

Today Jackson had his first haircut! I just couldn't handle seeing hair hang over his ears for one more day. We just went to the Great Clips up the road, and the lady who cut his hair was super nice and did a really good job. Jackson did great too, he didn't cry and only fussed a little. He looks so much older now!
Before, looking pretty shaggy:



After, looking so handsome:

On the Move!

The past couple of weeks a lot has changed. The biggest change is that Jackson is on the move. For the whole month of June and half of July he was so close to crawling it seemed that he was constantly on the verge of crawling and that he was going to start crawling any second. Then all of a sudden in the middle of July...it happened. Now he is everywhere and into everything. Its so exciting to see him progress and grow, but it certainly has changed our lives!
Another big milestone Jack recently hit was his first tooth! You can kind of see it in this picture (its on the bottom on the left).
The one next to it is getting really close to cutting through also. Why cant they come at the same time? It sure would be nice if you didnt have to go through the sleepless nights twice and you could get two over with at the same time.
