Vacation and 8 months!

Jackson is officially 8 months old today! We just returned from a wonderful vacation at the Florida Keys. We had the best time and Jackson did great! He was perfect during travel and napped and slept in the pack n play like a trooper. (Thank goodness for the training!) Jackson had so much fun playing with his friends Annie, Sarah Rose, Noah, Jude, Molly, Calvin and Hope. He misses them all already! Jackson is now crawling around like a pro and getting into everything. It is definately time to baby proof! He is also pulling himself up on everything. We had to lower his crib and remove the bumpers because he is able to stand up in the crib by himself. His two lower teeth are now finally in as well. It is so funny to see him smile with two small teeth! There are a lot of pictures from the trip, so enjoy!

I tired to get a picture of his teeth. If you look closely, you can see them.

Our first day at the resort in the keys!

Jackson on the beach. He loved both the ocean and the pool water. He also liked to play in the sand, but didn't realize he could crawl on it. Here he is crawling on the blanket.

The family in the pool.

Surfs up!

Let go of me mommy I can do it myself!

Jackson playing with Noah's dump truck on the beach. What a fun toy!

Jackson and Sarah Rose. Sarah is about 1 month older than Jackson and they had the best time together. They would look at eachother and scream. I wonder what they were saying to eachother?

Jude getting an airplane ride from Jorge. Jude is almost 2.

Older brother Noah. He is 3.

With all the toys on the ground, what does Jackson want to play with? A shoe of course!

One problem with a condo at the beach is the floor gets very dirty. Since Jackson puts everything in his mouth, his face got a little dirty.

Sarah Rose having a great time sitting on daddy's lap.

Annie, who is 3, entertaining Jackson.









Bety's mom babysat the kids so we could have an evening out. Thanks Ruthie!

You can't go on a trip to the keys without getting a tattoo.

See 2 kids are a breeze!








Jackson loved to open the drawers.

I love the beach!










There is nothing better than a fist full of sand!

Our closet had a full length mirror and Jackson loved to look into it. This picture also shows how curly Jackson's hair was with the Florida humidity!

The last day. We were so sad to say goodbye. We had so much fun and can't wait to do it again next year!

On a final note. Jackson's 7 month pictures are up on the blog. Go to www.agrgallery.com/blog to see a few. See you next week!
