We are a bike couple now!

We are officially a bike couple! We bought new bikes this week so we can go riding together. I am super excited too because they match. Just kidding that's not why I am excited, I am excited because now we can exercise together with Jackson trailing behind us in his nice comfy trailer.

Here are a few pictures...we decided we should get Jackson a helmet too and we just love it on him. It cracks us up...i bet it will crack you up too!








I'll let you know how our first ride goes.

Jackson is 6 months!

Jackson turned 6 months on Saturday, February 25. He is just getting so big and fun. Here are his stats:

-Weight: 15lbs 14oz
-Length: 26.5 inches
-Right now his eyes are greenish. Which is cool! I hope they stay that way.
-He is sitting up all by himself.
-He has 2 bottom teeth, and I think might be getting the top ones soon
-He is FINALLY sleeping in his crib, not through the night though.
-He loves bath time. He has figured out how to splash his hands and make water fly everywhere.
-He is saying things like daddada, nanana, gagaga
-He has tried eating rice cereal, Bananas, sweet potatoes, and peas. He doesn't really like anything but milk. He is getting better though. He actually ate 5 bites of peas 2 nights in a row. We are making progress!
-He also sat up in the jogging stroller for the first time yesterday without his car seat! He loved it. I will say it is much easier to push too without the car seat attached.

Well that's all for now. Enjoy some pics.

Photo Op

Last Sunday my sister took some pictures of Jackson. I thought these turned out pretty good. He is also has two teeth. You can see them in one of the pictures. I can't believe he already has teeth..he is only 5 months. It's crazy!

Jackson loves to sit up. He still needs a little help from the boppy or me but he is can mostly sit by himself.

Enjoy the cute pictures or my sweet little Jackson!

Jordan's Birthday

Yesterday, February 1st was Jordans 26th birthday. we celebrated by eating piza, opening presents, and digging in to some yummy triful that I made for him. It was a fun evening. I also made him a blanket on Shutterfly. You can put pictures on the blanket so I did and it turned out differently than I thought but I still think it's cute. I didnt think it would be so big. haha Next time...well if there is a next time, prob wont be printing any blankets for a while. I will know what it looks like and chose a better lay out with more pictures so there isn't a huge picture at the top. I still think it was a fun/cute idea though. Here are a few pictures from the night.

5 months

Jackson turned 5 months on Wednesday! I can't believe I have a 5 month old baby. It's crazy! Here is how he is doing:

Weight: 14.5lbs -Getting big!

Has tried rice cereal 3 times -Hates it! hopefully soon he will start to like it though. :)

Can sit up with assistance. I set him in the boppy sitting up and he does really good.

Teething already! -His two bottom teeth are poking through, which means Jackson doesn't always feel good. It's sad but were getting through it. I just can't believe he already is getting his teeth. I want his smile to be all gums forever! I'm actually a little sad. I'll get over it I guess.

Sleeping situation....oh gee. He will not go down in his crib. He either wants to be held or in mom and dads bed....no bueno people! I don't know what to do. I am too weak and I cant just let him cry..it makes me upset. He is still so little.

He is rolling over now from back to front! Usually when he is mad that I wont pick him up he just decides to roll over, and is actually liking his tummy time more.

He is now wearing 3-6 month clothes and some 6 month!

He LOVES his new stroller. We have been going on walks with our friend and he just loves to look around outside. He usually falls asleep too. It's just that smooth of a ride!

Pictures now! My sweet little Jackson just makes my world.








And last but not least! Jordan starts his new job on Tuesday. He is really excited! I am too because he is going to be taking the train into work now and I will know exactly when he will be getting home because there won't be any traffic. YAY.

I finally got a BOB

I am a proud new owner of a BOB jogging stroller. I love it. I took it out for my first jog today and it was so much fun, and a lot harder than I thought. I can't wait to keep going out. Jackson has one sweet ride now! He still has to be in his car seat when we go out because he can't sit up by himself yet but in these pictures I just
sat him in it to see if he liked it. He LOVES it, and he likes to use the car seat adapter as a foot rest. haha It is pretty funny.

This kid cracks us up.

Jackson is now 4 months old and is doing some funny things. I mean I am sure all babies do this but its our first so we just laugh with him..sometimes at him. No I am only kidding. I don't have a picture or video of this yet but he loves to scream now. Not because he is mad or anything just because he likes to hear the sound of his own voice. It's pretty humorous. We call him our little teradactyl. He just screeches as long as he can until he has no breath left in him. Then he usually laughs afterwards. He is so cute and funny.

He has also found his feet. He found them a while ago but he now loves to eat them. If he is on his back he is usually eating his toes. I guess they taste good. I should sprinkle sugar on them. :)

And something else funny is when he is nursing he will try to stick his thumb in his mouth also. He wants milk and to suck his thumb. Crazy kid. I have to pull his thumb out at least once or twice a feeding. He will just smile at me and then go back to eating.

Jackson is weighing in now at 13.8lbs and is 24.5 inches long. We had round 2 of shots and it was not nearly as bad as round 1. Round one was one of the saddest days of my life. I never want that to happen again.

Our little guy is keeping us on our toes. He can now roll over from back to front. Which I guess means no leaving him on the bed anymore alone. He is grabbing for about everything in site. He loves to be held. He is talking or "screeching" a lot, and loves to laugh when mommy and daddy give him kisses.

Here are a few pictures of Jackson. Enjoy!
