Kiss me, I'm Irish!

Well, maybe I'm not Irish, but I betcha you wanna give me a kiss!

Spring is finally here!

We had a great weekend.  Our friends Trey and Brandy came to visit and it was so much fun.  We spent time with good friends all day Saturday and enjoyed B-E-A-U-tiful weather!

I'm so tired of trying to crawl...

Loving tummy time now

Roll Tide!  Love my Bama!

Feeding myself

Yum!

This is better!

Boo-boo

Jackson got his very first boo-boo.  It's a paper cut.  Poor little thing, but he was back in action after a band aid!

9 Months!

Jackson is now 9 months old!  You won't believe how he is growing!  I can't believe that I have to start planning his first birthday party soon!  

Jackson continues to amaze us.  He has the most pleasant personality.  He is always smiling and loves being social.  He is so close to crawling!  Though he isn't crawling yet, he is somewhat mobile by scooting and leaning.  He has 3 bottom teeth and will soon have a top tooth!  He is dabbling with finger foods like noodles, mushy apples and egg yolks.  His favorite is puffs.  We are working on the sippy cup, but he still mostly uses it for a chew toy.  He is babbling all the time.  He has started pointing at things and is so curious about the world around him.

At his 9 month appointment, our sweet little man weighed in at a whopping 23.5 lbs.  He is 30 inches long and  his head is 19.75 cm.  He continues to be in the 95th percentile for height and weight, but is still off the charts in head size.  He is a healthy happy BIG guy!  

This is the best we could do :)

I just want to play!

Reading to my favorite friend

Maybe he is learning to say "Ma-ma" :)

Major Developments

This weekend we have major developments on the crawling front.  We aren't there yet, but Jackson is finally putting weight on his knees!  Yay!  He got daring enough to go from the sitting position to his hands and knees too!  And if that wasn't enough, he cut his third tooth.  Whew...that's a lot for one weekend!

Check it out!  Almost crawling!

Grandma, Grandpa and Chad came into town for Daddy's birthday!  I love Grandma time!
