You Should See the Other Guy...

Jackson got his first black eye (his right eye) at school today after he collided with another kid on the playground:( They called me at work to tell me what happened, but by then he was already playing again and having fun. I think it hurt when it happened, but I don't think it's really bothered him since.

(By the way, we are aware that he needs a haircut. We're hoping to get to that this weekend!)

Just My Size

We found this cute little table and chairs for Jackson at IKEA. He loves to sit there and eat his snacks...it's the perfect size for him! We are probably going to paint it, but we haven't decided yet on the color(s).

Ready to go in his orange and blue car seat!

Look how much he's grown!!

We went to Auburn last weekend to tailgate before the Auburn vs. LSU game. Scott ended up getting 2 tickets for us, so Erik went to the game with a friend and Jackson and I went back to Scott's house for the night. Even though Auburn lost, we had a lot of fun!

Jackson had fun playing in Uncle Scott's new Jeep Wrangler!

Ready for some football!

Just found these on my camera...

Jackson was very proud of himself for getting up in the big chair all by himself! He knows when he's being cute and loves to smile for the camera!

These pictures have been on my camera for a couple of weeks, but I've been a little slow on the updates since I started working full time again. Things have been pretty busy around here!

Bless You!

We were shopping at Target tonight. Jackson heard someone on another aisle sneeze and said, "Bless You!"

18 Months!

Jackson is now 18 months old! He had his check-up today, and here are his stats:

Length: 30.5 inches (5-10%)

Weight: 19 lbs, 3.2 oz. (still off the charts...but 20 pounds, here we come!)

Head: Who really cares about this one?

The check-up went very well, and he hardly cried at the 2 shots he had to get.

In other news, Jackson is talking so much these days! He will repeat any word you say, and I am surprised everyday by at least one new word that he's picked up! He's also started singing a little... If you start singing songs, such as "Row, Row, Row Your Boat," or "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star," he will join in on the words he knows! Then he claps for himself and says "Yay!" when it's over, and you can tell he is so proud (as are we:))!
