I am obviously putting this picture up to show off Jackson! Not my pale look! Oh do I wish it were July in the sun. haha! I just had to acknowledge this because anyone that knows me knows that I hate being pale! Anyway, Amy and I had a photo session this morning because we loved his preppie (Spelling?) monkey shirt from his Uncle Brad. Its really cute on him. He will be 7 months this coming week!!! He is all over the place, eating all of his fruits and veggies(obviously, you can see this by the chunks) and still working on his crawling. He gets up in form but then ends up scooting backwards. I'm sure it will happen soon. Also, a funny story- at his daycare his teachers have to feed him after the other babies because he gets so upset and cries if he doesn't get all of the attention and food to himself. I thought it was so funny, and we hope that he grows out of this as he gets older. It definately won't be cute as he gets older:) Jimmy and I will have to spend some extra time teaching him about sharing. He is our little piglet and we love him for it:) I hpe everyone has a good weekend, I know I am looking forward to it!!! TGIF

Here is a picture of Jackson from almost 2 weeks ago. I wanted to share because it turned out so beautiful in black and white. It was taken at a benefit that we went to. My sister got it through an email from the benefit and made it black and white. Thanks to whoever took it! Doesn't he look so big! He is trying so hard to crawl and can get up to do the motion, but just can't move his hands and legs with it yet. Hopefully in the next few weeks. I have a feeling we will miss the days before he was crawling. He is 6 1/2 months old and is full of personality! I'm still not sure what he (or any of us) will be for Halloween. Possibly a bumble bee that our nephew Donte used when he was a baby. It would defintely make a cute picture. As soon as I get some, I will get them up to share:) Have a great weeked!!!

Go Bears!

Resting up for the Bears game. Thanks Auntie Jackie for the awesome Hester Jersey!
I took this picture when Jackson had already been in bed for a couple of hours. I walked in and saw that his foot was hanging out of the crib. Maybe this is normal? Maybe not? Anyway, it was defintely a kodak moment to me. Of course I fixed the foot problem so that he wouldn't wake up crying in the middle of the night from his foot being stuck, awwwww.

How do you explain this? All I will say is that it was late on a Saturday night in the garage and a game of Beer Pong. Its Mike (Linseys Love) Jimmy (What a creep!) Gunars (These are his hats) and Tom Eddy (who woke up in a different place than where he fell asleep) haha. Just thought it was a good laugh!

Thanks Uncle Brad for the studdly Denver Broncos outfit. Jimmy said he can do the Broncos but no Sox gear Brad:) I think this may be one of my favorite pictures of him so far!!!
What a big boy! Riding a horse at a family fish fry last Saturday.

I think he was actually a little interested in the horse.

I couldnt resist, this is Jackson with my grandma and my cousin Meghans daughter, Kenzie. What a good lookin family!

A night out at Boffalo Wild Wings. We joke that we used to go to the bar on Tuesdays for "the coldest beer in town" but now we sit in the family section. Amy and Gunars were nice enough to join us in the family section. Of course, we still sampled a beer. Jackson also flirted with the whole L-W East Volleyball team that was sitting next to us, I think its the ears on his hoodie that did it in for him:)

Here is Jackson trying orange Juice for the first time at breakfast. His face explains it all! I hope you enjoy:)

I just wanted to check in and say hi! Jackson is full of laughing (he is very ticklish) and is now holding his own bottle! It is hard to just watch him drink it when I;m so used to holding it for him. He has two teeth that are on the bottom that you can see when he opens his mouth, and sharp too! He is rolling all over the place and now I have to really keep a close eye on him. Just this week, he is finally starting to sleep better at daycare. He has always seemed to like it there but he would come home exhausted and sleep til 5, then I felt like I didn't get to see him much:( Oh, and Jackson has to get his 6 month shots today so cross your fingers that it doesn't upset him to much. Jimmy is going along for this one so he may have to be the strong one for both Jackson and I, haha. On another note, our house is still up in the air but hopefully we will know everything for sure by tomorrow?!?!??! If I didn' already tell you, it appraised for less than what we agreed on so if the seller doesn't agree to decrease the price than we will have to walk away from it for several reasons. We just hope that he is willing to work with us because I already feel attatched to the house and have pictured us living in it lots of times. I will try to post some pictures/videos this weekend when I have more time. In the meantime, I can't wait to get together with my friends tomorrow night for our "First Friday of Every Month" get-together!!! I have been looking forward to it all week!!! Jackson is of course pumped about it too, considering he will have plenty of girls to flirt with!
