Sorry it took me so long to post, but we had some very bad storms in Marietta when we were gone on our trip to Chicago for Easter. A tree hit our house and dented our roof and we lost our internet for awhile, but now we are back and have so much to share! We had our first plane trip with Jackson. He did great! He didn't sleep very much, but was happy to just sit and play with mommy and daddy. We went home for Easter and Jackson got to meet more of my side of the family. We stayed with Aunt Sarah and Uncle Mike and had a wonderful visit and first Easter. Jackson continues to be a joy and is always smiling and laughing. He now has discovered his voice and loves to shriek as loud as he can! We are going to have to try to teach him the difference between his inside voice and outside voice! Jackson is also able to sit up for small periods of time by himself! We always stay right be him though because he still tends to topple! We have our 4 month check up this week so we will keep you posted on his progress. Here are some pictures from the trip. The first one is Jackson deciding he was a big boy and wanted to sit in first class by himself.
This is Jackson on the airport shuttle. Hold on!
Welcome to Chicago!
Welcome to Chicago!
This is Jackson in the tubby that is Aunt Sarah bought him to use for the week. It was shaped like a whale and Jackson loved it!
Mommy, Grandma and Jackson after we arrived.
4 Generations! That is Great Grandma, Grandma, Mommy and Jackson.
Jackson loved to sit and play with his Grandma Cindy.
Great Grandma with the 3 Grandkids. Nathan is 3 and Katie is 7. Nathan loved Jackson and constantly wanted to play with him. He was trying to hold his hand and make him smile. It worked, but poor Nathan then wasn't looking at the camera!
Jackson loved to lay on Great Grandma's green shag carpet. It was very soft!
Aunt Patty was trying to teach Jackson how to play the piano. He loved to hear the sounds, but sometimes it got a little too loud for him.

Jackson sitting up all by himself!
Nathan really wanted Jackson to play trucks with him. He bought him this bus and was always putting it in his hand. It was so cute! He kept saying "Jackson's bus".
During our visit my best friend from high school, Jennifer, was able to come over for dinner. Jackson has heard so much about her and was very excited to meet her!
Happy 1st Easter! Since Jackson can't eat candy yet, the Easter Bunny brought him money to put in a savings account. Thank you Easter Bunny!
Jackson found an egg during the Easter egg hunt.
This is the Easter outfit that Grandma Cindy bought Jackson. She kept her promise and did not buy him anything with bunny ears since daddy does not like dressing him up as an animal but......
He never said anything about bunny feet or....
a cotton tail! Jackson I will let you know that your daddy had nothing to do with this outfit and protested. You can blame your mommy and Grandma Cindy.
Here is Jackson meeting his Grandma Helen for the first time. We had a wonderful breakfast together, and Jackson was so excited to meet her.
Jackson was so exhausted from the exciting trip that he fell asleep while playing with his toy.
