8 Months

Wow! I did not realize how long it had been since I posted anything!!

Christmas was very fun, Jackson was just beginning to realize what was going on. He loved seeing so much family and getting so much attention!

Jack is now moving all of the time! He isn't quite crawling yet, but we are close! He sits up by himself really well and since he isn't crawling yet he just plays where I leave him, SO NICE!!

He is down to eating just three times a day, though he does have some allergies. We took him to the allergist (on recommendation from our doctor) and found he is allergic to milk, eggs, and corn. The corn is the hardest thing to be allergic to since it is in all formulas and formula mixes (except of course for the most expensive one!). He is a great eater...he is a big fan of prunes and anything sweet peas.

He has just started really interacting with other kids, laughing at them or talking to them as they run by. I think we have quite a social kid on our hands!

Jackson has just started a new trick today of crinkling up his nose like something smells...he has been doing it all day! He does it whenever he sees something he likes, when he is smiling, when he is studying something....it is too funny!

The past month has been so nice as Jon has had a change in his schedule to allow him to work 4 days on and then have 4 days off. Since he has this bigger break we are able to spend a lot more time together as a family, which has been so nice for all of us!

Hopefully I will be better about writing more often!!! Enjoy the pictures below!
