Happy New Year!

Wow it has been way too long since I have posted. I am not good at this blog thing. Happy New Year to all my friends and family we look forward to a great year in 2010. Here are some new pictures to ring in the new year!

Jackson trick or treating on Halloween. He was so funny, wanted to go in everyone's house!

Grandma and Grandpa on Thanksgiving!

Jackson playing with foam, it was so funny when he put it on his face and it stuck!

Opening presents Christmas morning!

Breakfast Christmas morning...caramel rolls and scrambled eggs, yummm!

Happy New year to you all! I will try to update the blog more often.

Pumpkin Carving Time!!

So it's been quite some time since I have blogged, so sorry for all the regulars, I just can't keep up.

Last night we decided to carve our pumpkin! I feel like this year we just didn't get out to the fun places like a pumpkin patch or apple orchard...poor Jackson. The weather has just been terrible on the weekends :(




Jackson wasn't too thrilled with sitting in his chair he had to be right in there, but never wanted to touch it...icky, he said!

As you can tell from his expression in this picture he wasn't too excited about the innards.

He liked to point at it and laugh a lot...

The final product...Jackson finally touched it! He was so scared of it. Weird!

Our little pumpkins!!

Happy Halloween everyone!!

photo update

Thought I should post some pictures since it's been a while!


Jackson loves to blow out candles! Just look at the happiness on his face!


He got a tricycle for his birthday from us! He loves it!



I think he looks so old in this picture...my baby is growing up so fast!



We went to St. Michael's fun days and they had a petting zoo there, Jackson had a blast with all the fun animals.



We helped some friends move this last weekend and Jackson's friend Ilsa had a pink soccer ball that he would not put down...on the way over to their new house Jackson fell asleep in the car like this! Too cute!

Happy 2nd Birthday Jackson!!!

Happy Birthday Jackson! It seems like yesterday you entered the world and our lives changed for the better! Mommy and Daddy love you so very much!

Jackson singing...or not!

Jackson has been watching videos on Youtube and one that he really likes is "Rain Rain Go Away" however, the only part of the song he knows is "Go away" so it sounds like he is just saying that over and over, but really its the song!

Complete with him putting the lens cap back on my camera! Too funny!

4th of July!!

We went to Sand Creek park for the fireworks display, they were great! Too many people, but they were really neat! Jackson made it through about the first 10 fireworks and then fell asleep...not sure how anyone could sleep through the really loud ones, but he did.



One of the many pretty fireworks!



Our little family! So sweet!



On Sunday we went over to Steph and Jer's for a fun time in the baby pool! Jackson had a blast swimming and going down the slide!



Emily, Jackson and Bri...Bri giving Jackson a kiss!



The best picture of all three looking up. Too cute!

Last Friday I had the day off work and Steph took me golfing for the first time! I had a blast, she's a great teacher! I can't wait to go again! Now if I could just get Jeff to buy me some clubs!

I'm a big kid now!!

On Thursday night after my softball game we decided to change Jackson's crib into a toddler bed. The first couple of nights have been pretty rough, but (the 4th night in his bed) he slept the whole night! Here are some pictures of the process...



Jackson thinks he is helping, but really just getting in the way!


So we found something else to occupy the time...a video on youtube!




Yay, all done!! His favorite part of having a big boy bed is jumping on and off!


Look at that face, he is so happy!



Time to get some sleep (yeah right)!
