Six Months Old

Jackson turned 6 months today, and we spent a lot of time outside to celebrate since that is his favorite thing to do. I cannot believe how fast the months have gone by. Tomorrow he gets his immunizations, so hopefully today will make up for that. He has been rolling all over the floor and trying to tuck those legs underneath him, but we aren't quite there yet. It is not for lack of energy though because he has plenty of that. We lost one sock about 10 times today.

Celebration Time!

Brandon was accepted into the UTSA MBA program, so it was a celebration weekend for all of us! Jackson and I attempted to take a "Congrats Daddy" picture, but he looks more shocked than anything. This is our attempt at group clapping...

















The official letter opening was a relief after the studying and application process. August will be here before we know it!

Sunny Days

We had a great weekend and kept busy given the beautiful weather here. Jackson attended his first Super Bowl party at a friend's house where he spent most of his time bonding with their chocolate Lab. It is nice to know he likes dogs because we would like to get one in the future. On Monday Rita came to visit from Austin which was fun for all of us. Jackson flirted away, and we had a chance to visit as well. And since the weather was warm, Jackson tried out his preppy, spring outfit.I am really having a hard time lately with the thought of him growing up because this is a really great age! He is laughing and playing and lights up the room wherever we go. I am sure it just gets better though. Brandon helped him try out a little ceiling walking last night... ...and today it was cool again with lots of sunshine, so we busted out the rimmed hat for some added protection on our walk. Like I am ever going to be able to say "no" to that face. We are in trouble.

Ladies Man

I picked Jackson up from the gym this morning and was informed that he has been flirting with a 10 month old girl that is normally there at the same times during the week! Apparently she hollers at him and he hollers back, and they keep this conversation going for quite a while. The little girl's mom told me that Jackson could pull off going for an older woman with those big blue eyes! I think we have our work cutt out for us in the future.
