This is earlier in the day, he fell asleep right after eating his lunch...soooo sweet!

And then this was him after a yummy spaghetti dinner!
*you can see one of his bottom molars pretty good in this pic :)

Another Snow Day!

John sledding down our street!

Jackson with John and a couple of our neighbors

Friends!

This was my very favorite stuffed animal Fluff (Dextr gave him to me on my 10th birthday, so he is approaching 20 yrs old! ....you can do the math ;) Jackson loves him so much and I have gladly passed him down to him!

so sweet loving on Merry at our monthly girls dinner

and giving Ash hugs too!

Hope, Jamie, and Adam came to visit us and we had so much fun! She is sooooo cute!!

We went over to Doug and Kelly's and Jackson and Riley had so much fun playing together!

This is the best we could do at Elliot's 1st birthday party ;)

Disney's Vero Beach & More!

Blue Springs State Park, FL

We saw about 30 manatee's! It was a beautiful clear spring and had the most amazing fish, alligators, and manatee's in it!

We had breakfast with Donald and Goofy...you can see he LOVED Donald!

offering Donald some of his waffle ;)

and then you can see he did NOT like Goofy ;)

We think Goofy was just a little too big and scary for him ;)

Kennedy Space Center!

Out to eat in Vero Beach

His first Mickey ears!

They had the coolest Pirate Ship for the kids to play on and he LOVED it!!

"RRRRRRRR....their she blow's matee's" **this was one of our favorite pics!

The cool cow we came across on our long drive down to FL. Jackson just had a blast playing around it :)

Imagine It Museum

Curious George was the exhibit they were currently displaying

weeeeeee

the whole group fishing besides myself and Courtney's mom

of course the first thing he did was get soaked...but he loved every minute of it!

We went to the Imagine It Childrens Museum in Altanta with some of the ladies from my Sunday School group and our wonderful kids! We had a blast and I know Jackson can't wait to go back!!

15 Months!

These are all from our snow days last week...we were iced in for a few days :)

Jackson pointing at the snow falling

Yep, that is our frozen lake, and that is some kids pushing a boat on top of the ice

John & I went sledding down the street with our neighbors

already taking toys from each other!

this was so cute, I turned the light on and they were both doing this!

Our visit with Grandpop Stout

15 month stats:

Height: 33 inches (90th %ile)

Weight: 24 lbs. (50th %ile)

Jackson has been doing so much in the last 3 months and this is a little of it to catch you up!

He is saying:

"hey da" = hey dad

"mama"

"Nana" this just happened yesterday when I was showing him pictures of all his grandparents

"Uh oh" when he drops something

"dog" and he also points and says it if he sees one on t.v. or when we are out and about

"duck"

"ruff, ruff, ruff" after he says dog sometimes

"no, no, no, no" of course!

"baby" which my mom taught him while singing happy birthday to baby Jesus

"varoom varoom" when playing with cars or in his big car

~He points at EVERYTHING and anything and wants to know what it is!

~He has been attempting to use a spoon and fork...however it is sooo messy ;)

~When you say "dance" or sing the song "I like to move it move it" he dances and it's super cute!

~John has tried to teach him how to feed the ducks out back, but he says "no way...that is my bread" and won't throw it! In fact, John has to feed him every 3rd piece ;)

~He is still OBSESSED with John and actually won't even say Mama at the moment ;) When he hears the garage door open in the afternoon he runs over and waits by the basement door and bangs on it. So we always open it and greet John :)
