Just a few of my favorites....

I love taking pictures of my little dude and here are a few of my favorites from the past few weeks. Mom offered to take us to pedicures and I thought Jackson would just tag along. He wasn't hungry he just wanted to suck on my nose. Taylor got this picture of us.... too funny! 

 Willie doesn't get the love he used to, but I still love him!! I thought he looked so adorable. 

 Belly full of mommies milk. 

 I love this picture and it is actually on my screen on my computer at work, I love these boys so much.

 Chubby baby legs all from his mommies milk and a little baby food....

 We started feeding Jackson baby food a few weeks ago. He love it. His favorite is squash and sweet potatoes and any fruit. He isn't too much of a fan of peas and green beans, but I make him eat them any way!

Ringing in 2015 in Kansas City

2014 Has been such a great year. It started with announcing to our families that we were pregnant and taking my first train trip to Colorado. During the year we went on multiple weekend trips, weddings, and we had our best gift in August Jackson Dean. We wanted to have a baby for a few years before we were blessed with Jackson but I really can't imagine my life without him. I love my weekends with him and watching him grow. My favorite thing to do is play with him and read him books. He got a lot of awesome books for Christmas and we have so much fun together. 

I was asked by my closest friend from college to be a part her wedding on NYE so we packed up Jackson and took him with us for her big day. It was a great few days and I wish we could have stayed longer. Things have definitely changed having Jackson (because I know I have to get up with him in the middle of the night) but we had a blast! Here are some pictures from the wedding.

 We just added him to a luggage rack!

 JD and the bride. He stayed in the suite for about 15 minutes to say hello to everyone so we could start getting ready.

 Me and the bride. Beautiful!

 We actually took a picture together. It only took a few tries....

 Happy New Years Day! We did a lot of snuggling because we both were tired.

Happy boy..... let's see what else we can do in 2015!

Jackson 4.5 Months

Jackson is getting bigger every day and has been so much fun. He is still wearing all 6 month clothes and wearing size 2 diapers. We have been feeding him baby food in the evening and last night was the first time he really ate anything. We were at Brooke's house and he seemed hungry so I fed him applesauce and it was a big hit so I am going to try to mix applesauce with vegetables to see how it goes.

 I love taking videos of him when Matt was gone. He was talking away!

 Willie protecting his baby. Jackson was making noises and Willie snuggled up next to him. They are too cute. I think Willie has realized I will give him more love if he does the same thing to the baby.

 Christmas was pretty fun but poor little Jackson was overwhelmed. We opened our gifts on Christmas Eve and Matt spoiled me. He got me tickets to a KU game, a North Face coat, new clothes, and a treadmill. I am a lucky lady. We got Jackson all kinds of fun stuff and he could have cared less. He didn't look at the paper. He is pretty much too small for everything so I will post pictures as he can start playing with his new toys!

 I bought the boys matching jammies and Brooke took some with her camera so I will have to steal some from her blog! Grammie with two of her boys.

 Baby Snuggles

 One of the best things I found him. I can't wait for him to wear these in Florida!!

 Almost rolling over. So close but still hasn't made the move to go all the way.

 He is always all smiles in his car seat. So sweet!

 All his friends. I am going to be sad when he gets to big for this camo coat.

4 Month Appointmet

Jackson had his four month appointment on Tuesday 12/16 and here are his stats below. I have been wanting to see how much he weighed and I couldn't believe it when they put him on the scale. I thought he weighed more so when Dr. Boe said he was the 36% percentile we asked about if we could give him food. So we have been trying. He has no idea really what to do but even over a few days he has been getting better. Jackson is totally out of 3 month clothes. The onesies still kind of fit but were tight going over his head so I just put them away. Pants have been way too small for a while so he is wearing 6 or 6-9 month pants. 

 He has a good sized noggin and we really love wearing hats. He pulls off socks and will drop anything out of his seat, highchair, or swing but he leaves his hats on. I am happy because we have a lot of them and they are so darn cute.

 Matt was gone a lot this week so I try to take videos. Keyword "I try" I know they are not good but I wanted to capture the moment since he was gone.

 I mean seriously look at this face!

"Mom stop just feed me!"

 He loves to sit in the high chair. I put him in it when I am making dinner and he just watches me. It is really the cutest. He never wants to miss anything.

 This was the first time that I gave him cereal. It was so funny!

Jackson loves to watch the train go by. Matt loves to lay him on his boppy and he just watches the train go round and round!

4 Months Old

Being 4 months old is hard work. Here are all my favorite places to sleep!!

 My car seat!

 My Jump-a-Roo

 and again.....

 and again.... He is the son to my husband! Matt can fall asleep anywhere and Jackson loves to fall asleep mid-jump!

And on mommies lap. Love these lips! This is Jackson in a milk coma....

It's Beginning to Look a lot like Christmas

I know Jackson is still a new little baby but Christmas has been so much fun this year. I love buying gifts but gifts for a new baby is the best. Below is a picture from our Christmas card that we posed Jaackson in Christmas Jammies (Clayton's) in his bumbo with Matt's trains. While we were taking pictures Matt brought the little bear Jackson is holding which is my favorite stuffed animal from my childhood named Gundy. Matt didn't know the background story behind Gundy so it was pretty sweet to watch Jackson love on him! 

I am in love with our stockings. I am so happy I bought them. This is also the first year we opted out of getting a baby tree and got a 6ft tree. For me this is huge! I always just got the smallest tree possible before so it was fun decorating it with all sorts of ornaments. 

 The tree and baby Jack Jack. How cute?!?

Thanksgiving

We went to my Mom's for Thanksgiving and it is so fun to spend the day with family and Brooke's little ones. Sawyer and Clayton both love Jackson and I can't wait for the three of them to get into trouble! 

 Jackson laying on Grammie's lap with his aborable flannel bibs that he got from our friends the Windish's as a gift.

 All tuckered out from a big day. Always snuggling blankets by his face!
