Whew, things have been busy lately! We're just settling in from a trip to Colorado and are about to leave for Texas for a few weeks! I don't really have any cute stories for this post...just thought I'd update everyone on how things are going here with us. I will say, though, that it was an amazing thing to see Jackson with everyone in my family. I knew they would love him, but to physically SEE them loving him really gave me great joy. I love Jackson, and delight in every new little thing he does. I watch him learn to make new silly faces and go crazy when he laughs. It was just plain wonderful to share that joy with the people I love! To see their faces light up when he laughed or noticing that the whole room went quiet to watch Jack grunt and struggle his way over from his back to his front on the floor was so great. It just reminded me of how lucky Jackson is to have such a big, loving family! He's already learning that our family hangs out in the kitchen, too! :)
Anyway, things are going well! Jackson is rolling over both ways now and smiles and even laughs if you can really entertain him. He loves to play in his jumper or lay on the floor on his tummy and play with toys. I also think he's starting to get over his car seat aversion!!! It's a struggle to keep him from grabbing EVERYTHING within his reach as well. I'm starting to learn that everything on the table or counter near me needs to be moved when I'm holding him!
That's about all I've got...enjoy Thanksgiving!
