One Year!!!!

Happy 1st Birthday, Jackson!!! I cannot believe how fast this year has gone by and how much you have changed. Your little personality is coming out more and more everyday. We had a wonderful John Deere birthday celebration with family and friends. We had BBQ sandwiches and dirt cups for dessert.  You are growing SOOO BIG, but you still have a lot of boot left to fill!

  At 1 year, Jackson, you:

~are walking all over the place

~love to read books

~are learning to communicate by signing, pointing, or saying "ah" or "yah" or "no no"

~recently decided you do not like bath time anymore

~love to brush your teeth (you now have 6, 3 bottom, 3 top)

~like to feed yourself and try drinking from a cup

~blow kisses and "wink" more like a blink-but sooo cute

~like to play at the park, climb on everything, swing and go down the slides

You got so many new toys, books, tractors, clothes, and puzzles.  we are going to have so much fun!

 You look so COOL in your new shades!! We are ready for summertime!!

 You even made the "I'm a Big Brother" announcement! Wht a surprise-you brought tears to everyone's eyes!

 Aunt Leanne helped make your dirt cake-with a tractor and worms! You seemed to thoroughly enjoy "diggin' in"

 After all that fun and excitement, you walked right over to grandpa, and he picked you up and you fell right to sleep in his arms. 

Jackson, you have brought so much joy into our lives, I can't even remember what it was like before you were born. I love to watch you learn and grow, you suprise me everyday with how much you observe and take in. I like trying to understand you, even though you don't say words it seems we can always figure out what your trying to say. You are the sweetest little boy! I love you!!!!!
