Funny Feet
Jackson is so funny. He loves his pajama onesies that have animals on his feet. He stares at them and tries to grab them. Little does he know that they are actually his feet and that HE'S the one moving them. They make him so happy--especially the dinosaur ones! Cute kid.

3 Months
Baby is officially 3 months old! I couldn't decide which picture I liked better, so I put both up.
Interesting facts about the little kiddo:
--Jackson is now wearing 6 month clothes.
--He loves his jungle bouncer.
--He is now sleeping in his crib. He wakes up more at night because of it. Hopefully he will adjust soon!
--He reaches after his toys.
--He is sometimes goofy, especially when his daddy is around. I love seeing his little personality emerge!
--Jackson is still a big cuddler.
--The kitty snuggled Jackson for the first time the other day. She put her head on his leg. They are going to be the best of friends, I just know it!
Sleepy
Goofy
I went back to work a couple weeks ago. It's hard because I'm not home to put my little boy to bed. Hopefully in a couple months I'll be able to change my shifts around so I can come home earlier. Ryan is a great dad and takes good care of the baby while I'm gone!

King of the Jungle
Lions and tigers and giraffes, Oh my!
Jackson had quite the fight this morning. He had to prove to his stuffed tiger that he was, in fact, the king of the jungle. I caught some footage of the (not so) bloody battle.
"Tiger says HE'S the King of the Jungle!"
"I will show him!"
"Roar!"
"Take this!"
"And take that!"
"And then I will bite you." (I had to tell Jackson that was a little too Mike Tyson-ish.)
"Tiger surrendered."
Presenting...the King of the Jungle!
All tuckered out, poor little guy. I didn't have the heart to tell him that he wasn't actually holding his bottle.

Favorite Moments of the Day
#1: I woke up this morning wondering why Jackson hadn't woken up yet. That's when I heard these little coos coming from his room. I walked in to find him staring up at the ceiling talking to it. I'm not sure how long he had been doing that for, but it was one of the cutest things ever.
#2: We took Jackson to the ER to visit some of my coworkers. The only time we could go was around his naptime, so I was worried he would be tired and grumpy. When we took him out of the car, he was already sleeping, but soon woke up to the bright lights. He did pretty good with the first couple people and even smiled once or twice. However, he was able to draw a crowd. There was probably 5 or 6 people surrounding him. He was a little overwhelmed at all these new faces. One of my coworkers exclaimed, "He is the cutest baby I've ever seen! Can I take him home and keep him?!" Right at that moment he stuck out his bottom lip, scrunched up his face, and started to cry--the saddest baby face I've ever seen! Perfect timing and oh so funny!
#3: We went to Sonic during Happy Hour to get 1/2 priced slushies. 2 slushies for a little over $1 sounds like a good treat to me! We went through the drive-thru and when I went to hand the Sonic lady my debit card, I accidentally dropped it on the ground! Ryan went to go pick it up, but discovered the car was too close to the wall to get out. I had to pull the car forward, stop, have Ryan get out and get the card, hand it to the drive-thru lady, reverse (yes, the person behind me saw...as did the other 3 cars!), and wait to get our drinks. This did not faze the Sonic lady at all. She didn't even say anything. I hope this means that things like this happen often. The best part about the whole thing? It was raining.
#4: Ryan has been doing really good at exercising every day. He usually goes to the clubhouse gym, but today, it got a little too late to go. He decided to pop in one of my pilates cardio videos. While he was doing it, I was feeding the baby and trying to put him to sleep. I know, not the best environment for sleep, but it was fun! During the warm up/stretching portion of the video, Jackson was pretty much sleep eating. His eyes were closed and he was reflexively eating. However, when Ryan got to the cardio part, I looked down and Jackson was wide awake smiling. He was watching his daddy do pilates and thought it was so funny! He watched him for the whole 30 minutes with a huge smile on his face!

Our Growing Boy
(Warning: Picture and Video overload...because let's be honest. You are all here for Jackson.)
Jackson is growing like a weed! It is amazing to look at pictures from just a couple weeks ago and see how much he has changed. He is a happier baby these days. He cries less and is so aware of the world around him. Last week he discovered his hands. It's funny to see him examining them like they are the coolest things in the world.
I have how many fingers?
He has really been playing with toys too. He grabs and holds onto things. He loves his skinny elephant. It makes a crinkly noise when you touch it. He also likes his bouncer. When you hit the toys, it lights up. Amazing, I know.
His favorite place in the whole house is in his crib. He doesn't actually sleep in it yet, but he loves to play in it.
He always coos at the mobile. However, when we pull the camera out, the little stinker stops and stares. This is the best video we have of it.

What's new with Ryan and me? Ryan's been doing really well in school. He is also waiting patiently (well as patient as you can!) for his law school acceptance letters. I go back to work next week...we'll see how that goes. And we have 2 random pheasants in our backyard.
