Just hangin' around

Jackson loves his little around-we-go. He also loves the Wiggles. I think he loves the Wiggles even more when Daddy does the dance... I'm serious! You should see Parker... I think he could be a Wiggle. Anyway, we are having fun with Jackson, trying to keep up with school along the way. He is so much more fun than homework... I am trying to stay motivated!

A New Start...

My friend, Kylee Grove, recently showed me her "blogspot". [I included a photo of Kylee and Jackson.] I have been feeling extremely guilty lately for not keeping up with Jackson's milestones or at least scrapbooking along the way, as I have been going crazy just trying to keep up with school and finish the Education Program. When she showed me how easy it was to add "posts" and keep everyone (family, friends...) up-to-date on our lives, I was quickly convinced. After we went walking yesterday, she "walked" me through the process. I even learned how to attach pictures to my posts. Let me know what you think!

Green Outfit from Great-Great Granny

Parker's Great-Grandmother is 90 years old. She wanted to send something to Jackson, so here it is! I call him Kermit the Frog when he's wearing it... pretty funny.

A Maddie Visit!

Jackson and Maddie have had so much fun together. Well, mostly she has had fun with him. This is their last visit until Mommy doesn't have to be in school 40 hours each week! I am glad to be at home more, but sad that we don't have a visit to look forward to next month.

Random pics...

Here are some pictures of "recent events" around our little home. Jackson was all dressed up for church... with his blue cowboy boot slippers (too cute!). I had to take a picture.



He LOVES the bath and we think he is adorable in his little puppy towel.

More Jackson & Maddie pics and some of just Jackson hanging out.

Taking a nap with Mommy

I will admit, I am not as good at sleeping comfortably with Jackson as Parker is. I think I am too nervous that I will squish him! Anyway, he does like to sleep on my tummy sometimes. As long as I'm in the middle of the bed, I don't worry too much. Isn't he SO cute?!

Taking a nap with Daddy

Parker and Jackson love to snuggle together.

Jackson's Blessing - February 18, 2007

I guess I had a lot on my mind and didn't think to take pictures of Jackson by himself, so these are the best that I have. He was so sleepy and wasn't really happy about being handed off from person to person. Eventually, we stopped and he was a happy little sleepy boy.

Cousins!!

Jackson and Maddie have had the opportunity to spend lots of time together. My sister, Tiffany made the trip from Seattle to La Grande and spent one week in January, in February, and in March to help take care of Jackson while Parker and I were in school. We had lots of fun and took lots of cute pictures. It's fun to watch them grow together! Seeing them reminds Parker and I of the good memories that we have with our cousins growing up.

Jackson photo shoot (I know, again)

Jackson was hamming it up, so I kept on taking pictures. He just kept giggling and giggling. It was pretty cute! And I love this little baseball outfit... I am a little partial. Parker thinks that he needs a soccer uniform, but it just wouldn't keep him warm enough. ;-)

Sleepy Boy

Since Valentine's Day fell right in the middle of the week and I don't get done with school until 4:00pm most days, it was a pretty low-key day. That night, we took our main babysitters (My sister, Tiffany, Kylee Grove & her husband, Matt) out for dinner on us to the best steakhouse in the area. It was yummy! And we enjoyed being able to pay them at least a little for helping us out SO much!

Jackson & Grandma

We were visiting Parker's family in Portland this weekend... lots of spoiling from Grandma & Grandpa!!

Little Sailor

Grandma bought this little sailor outfit for him... so cute!

I love to see Jackson is baseball outfits! It makes me excited for when he is big enough to see what sports he will be most interested in.

Perfect Little Angel Boy

We think that we have the most beautiful little baby boy. He is so precious!
