Big Brother Class

Jackson went to a "Baby and Me" class today at the hospital so he could learn how to be a good big brother. He did great! Here he is learning how to swaddle...

and change a diaper...

I think he is going to be a wonderful big brother and very helpful!

4th of July Weekend

We had a great weekend! We went to Oxford, AL, on Saturday to Aunt Jessi's parents' house. We hung out there for the day with Aunt Jessi's family, Scott, Bronx, Mimi and Pop. Then Mimi and Pop came back to Atlanta with us. We grilled out on the 4th and then went to see the fireworks! Here are some pictures (starting with Sunday night and going backwards!)

Some of the fireworks were a little loud, but I loved them anyway!
