It's Fairtime!!

We had beautiful weather for our Fair this year. Aiden and Jackson were a lot of fun. Jackson loved the animals and wasn't quite sure about a few of them. He is used to our dog and cat, but the sheep, chicken's and goats, he just didn't know what to think.
I seriously about peed my pants when I saw the look on his face.
Aiden liked the merry-go-round.
What in the world are you?!!!!
At one point in the barns, one of the sheep bleaked really loud and Jackson was right next to it, he screamed. It scared him, but within seconds he was smiling at them again. Papaw showing Jackson the sheep.

Spending time with out of town family...

I thought this face was too cute!!
This is Jackson's Great-Grandmother and Great-Grandfather
Aunt Marie and Uncle Kenny, I think Uncle Kenny enjoyed playing more than Jackson did!
Couldn't take the pressure!!!
He loves this box. It's kind of nice to not have to chase him all over the place. Haha

It Has Been Way Too Long!!!!

Well I have to apologize to you all for not updating in about 3 months...Christy and Angela are about to kill me. Anyway, Jackson is growing and talking and smiling more and more everyday. Fair time was great. He loved the animals and watched every move Aiden made. He rode the ponies!! It was the cutest thing. He patted the horse as he rode.

October came and Jackson took his first airplane ride. We went to Georgia and Florida for two weeks. He liked the plane and we got really neat pictures of him on the plane, his first time at the beach eating the sand, playing with Denver and Sam, and his two trips to the Emergency Room...I'll explain later with the pics I post.

November brought some worry to us. Jackson had to have 2 biopsies done. One on his leg and one on his arm. We took him to Granville to a dermatologist. She did a punch biopsy and told us to wait a week for the results. Easy for her to say. I spent the week crying and worrying. We received a phone call and were told that everything was fine and they would re-check it in 6 months...but he would probably grow out of it. Thank you God!!!!!

We had his 9 month old check-up yesterday and he is 28 inches long, and 18 pounds. She said that he has slowed a bit growing, but, as you all know, Eric and I are not big people. Jackson isn't going to be very big. I weighed 19 pounds when I was 2. She said he looks good. Had three shots. I HATE THAT!!! I think it hurts mom more than it hurts him.

So there you have it...3 long months. I will be posting some pics this weekend. I have put it off long enough. Of course it will have to wait until after our Buckeye's beat that "M" word...that is a bad word in our home and we are trying to watch what we say in front of our little one. Hahaha!! Thanks for being patient with me.
