8 Months!

Jackson is 8 months old already.  In just a few short months we will be celebrating 1 year!  I know, I am getting ahead of myself, but time sure is flying!

Still no crawling.  He doesn't quite realize he can put weight on his knees, though it is quite a bit of weight.  We don't know how much he weighs, but we know he has grown, both in height and weight.  Since he was just over 20 lbs last doctor's visit, I am guesstimating that he weighs around 23-24 lbs.  He is a BIG, but proportionate, boy.  Anyways, back to crawling.  He does seem to go backwards sometimes.  And it looks like he is trying to butt-scoot around.  The clear favorite is standing.  He will even take a few assisted steps, forwards or backwards.  He may just go straight to walking.

He has started the older infant class at day care and comes home completely pooped out.  Most nights he is in bed by 7, which is sad for Mommy and Daddy, but nice because it gives us freedom to get things done or just relax.  Most of the time we end up on the relaxing end. :)

Hope everyone is having a good week!  The Deahl household is steadily getting over this round of colds, but we are almost there! 

8 Months!

Nom nom...

Let me see here...

I love to use the spoon!

And I love love love me some puffs!

His latest smile...I love that he scrunches up his nose :)

Another weekend, more Grandparents!

This weekend we got a visit from Papa, Mimi and Aunt Ashley!  How lucky are we that we got to see both sets of grandparents in two weekends?!?  We know Jackson was loving it!  They arrived Friday night, just in time for bath time!  Saturday, Jackson got to go shopping with the ladies while the boys golfed.  One of these days, Jackson will be able to do the manly things.  Sunday, we played and played until everyone had to go home.  We had a wonderful weekend and can't wait for more visits!

Check out my cool new hat!

Papa, I want your hat!

Uncle Chad's Birthday Weekend

This weekend was a blast!  The Deahls came to visit to celebrate Uncle Chad's 21st birthday.  Saturday morning, the boys got to work on cars.  I sure wish I was old enough because, instead, Mom took me shopping for fabric. Boooring!  I just can't wait to work on cars with Daddy.  Saturday we went to the World of Wheels in Atlanta and saw some awesome cars, motorcycles, trucks and even a few mullets.  I sure would love to have one someday!  A car, not a mullet :)  It was so much fun, I stayed awake throughout the entire show, but had to catch a nap as we walked out the door.  Then, we went out to eat and had some great wings.  Again, I didn't get to have any.  Instead, they fed me a pickle!  I didn't like it, but just wanted to keep tasting it to make sure.  

Then we had a great breakfast Sunday morning and I got to watch Mommy learn to sew.  We ended the day with some football.  My favorite!  I was so sad to see everyone go, but they will be back soon!  For now, enjoy some pics from our weekend.

All Dressed Up

So the snow has finally melted, we are back at work and school, and everything seems to be back to normal.  Saturday, Jackson got all dressed up for his buddy Max's birthday party.  Everyone was so happy to be out of the house after 4 days of being cooped up!  We had a great time catching up with friends.  Jackson played so hard he needed a nap half way through!  My camera also died, so I only snapped a few shots.  Hope everyone had a great weekend!  

Snazzy!

Check out my argyle!
