11 months!

wow...here we are just 1 month away from the
big 1 year old mark...crazy!!!! let the party planning begin!
jackson has been very busy this last month.
most notably, he's mastered the art of crawling-
rolling and army crawling are for 10 month olds...!!!
he's pulling up on everything and has even learned
how to let himself down- a helpful skill!

newest tricks and favorite things:

crawling around really fast
pulling up, falling down, bumping into furniture
chewing on crib rails
saying DADA all the time, MAMA (once in a blue moon)
new word for mister "DUGGADUGGA"
handing you a toy if you ask for it
opening and slamming the tupperware drawer...throwing the contents all over the kitchen
sleeping through the night...12 hours...yipee!
big morning naps (2-3 hours...yipee!)
any food he can feed himself- bananas, waffles, pancakes
least favorite food- tofu (overdosed maybe?)
yelling at the top of his lungs
anything that isn't a toy- shoes, purses, the remote, cell phones
being ultra smiley 98% of the time
watching jeopardy-the daily double noise gets him everytime!
trick or treating

halloween 09








trick or treat!

we made it to 6 houses on jackson's 1st halloween...
the bee was a big hit with all our neighbors of course.
the cutest part of the night was watching jz carefully select which
candy he wanted from whatever bowl or tray of treats
was offered...too cute!

getting ready to head out...someone did NOT like
the bee antennae/hood part of the costume...darn!

our favorite neighbors...the ryans!
