Back on the ball...

Or trying to be! Here are some more pictures.




He looks so big! These were taken on the first cold night in our new house. Justin built a fire and Jackson, being his father's son, wanted to helped stoke it!





This is a pretty normal face when he's eating. "Give me more!!" He says more in sign language too.



Hazel loves that Jackson likes to feed her. It makes him laugh, and I don't have to sweep up :+)

ZOO LIGHTS @ GULF BREEZE ZOO


Out on the deck before we left.



We had a blast. And it finally feels like winter!!



Ayla doing what she does best!!



I named this goat Baylie (the Napier's lab) because he was wild! He was balanced on a log with his front legs on the fence and his neck stretched as far as it would go. Jackson was not scared of the goats giving him kisses. I was a little worried about it after one goat stuck his head through the fence slats to make sure we didn't have snacks in the stroller tray.



Naughty or Nice?? Hmmm??

Ayla laughs when Amy says, "Ho, Ho, Ho" so she was smiling in her first picture with Santa. Jackson, on the other hand, had a tight grip on Santa's beard while he cried!

New Pictures, No Commentary

I haven't updated my blog lately, and I'm sorry!! I figured, at the insistence of my Aunt Brenda, that I would share a few pictures.




My baby with a mohawk :+)



Sugar high...



And he hit the wall! He had icing everywhere...



One of his 1 year portraits. Daddy is so proud that he'll do this on command!



Family Christmas Photo



The Kids...This is a good "Southern" picture. Ayla in a smocked dress and Jackson holding her hand.



Taken at my Christmas party. We had fun that night!

Okay, my arm is twisted. Here's a quick update.

Jackson is talking and babbling more every day. Today he said "yummy" while eating breakfast. Then he was upset with me and he cried, "da, da, da, no, no, no!" It was really funny. I'm not sure that he fully knows the meaning, but he knows the words!! This afternoon he crawled up and down the deck following a little lizard. Then he sat and played with a pine cone and a stick. He has gotten a lot better at playing alone.

We're excited to celebrate Christmas with Jackson this year. He'll be fun!!We are going to Zoo Lights tomorrow afternoon with Amy, Brett, Ayla, Grandma and Grandpa. The zoo is decorated with Christmas lights, so we'll see the animals, ride the train, and pay Mr. Claus a visit.

I will update my blog in the next few days with more pictures!
