3 Months Already!?!

Please forgive me for being so long in posting....life has been crazy!!

Jackson is now 12 weeks old, we can't believe how quickly time has flown. He is already not fitting into most of his 0-3 month clothes!

We are very happy to say that the little man is now sleeping through the night (from about 9pm till about 7am) which is so nice for mom and dad both! He has started to roll over from his front to his back (he thinks its a fun game to play when mommy is trying to have BELLY time with him!). He is cooing all the time and starting to laugh a little bit...we are having a hard time catching a smile on camera. He smiles all the time but as soon as sees the camera, he gets distracted and just studies it! We will keep working on it!

We are in the middle of either fighting off a cold or teething...we aren't sure which yet! Jackson has been quite fussy for a few days now, and has a little fever as well as a runny nose and the need to chew/gnaw on everything in sight!!

Jon is busy working and playing with Jackson...as soon as Jack sees his daddy he lights up with a huge smile...its too cute!

Still no Internet at home so and I forgot the memory card, so no pics today..sorry! I will try to get some new ones up soon! Hopefully I will have more to write soon!
Love to all!

5 Weeks, 2 Days Old

Well, Jackson is over a month old now, which is hard for us to believe! He smiled for the first time the other day, though dad didn't get to see it so we are still after him to smile for daddy!

We are all finally emerging from the fog we were in for a few weeks. We are still tired, but we do feel much more like ourselves again, which is a nice change.

Jackson has stared to be awake more often in the day, making our days a little more fun. He loves his swing and usually likes his "belly time" quite a bit as well. It looks like he might just get to keep that full head of hair, since he hasn't lost any of it as of yet! He is starting to coo more often now, especially to any singing going on around him (he must have inherited that from the Lowery side!)

Oh, I almost forgot...Jackson started his first swim class (a mom and me class)with Mrs. Kerin this week. He has loved being in the water and moving around in it...even though he fell asleep halfway through his first "lesson"! :)

All in all we are doing quite well and look forward to the changes that will take place over the next few weeks.

This is the only picture I can get to load right now, so it will have to do! :)

Jackson Bryant Lowery

Well, a lot has changed since our last post...the biggest thing being the birth of our son, Jackson Bryant Lowery on July 8th, 2007. (Has it already been 3 weeks?!). He weighed in at 7 pounds and 5 ounces, though he weighs well over 8 pounds now, and was 20.5 inches long. We are so thankful for his safe arrival and are enjoying getting to know each other.

We still don't have Internet at home so our post will still be a bit hit or miss until we can get that all set up...please be patient!

Here are some pictures of our new family and the little one! He has already changed so much from these pictures so I will have to load some more soon! Enjoy!

36 Weeks, 4 Days

Well...just to update everyone out there....

We went to the doctor today and everything looks good. She said the baby is starting to move down and "things are starting to happen." I am measuring right at 37 weeks and the baby is around 6 lbs right now...so far, so good!

We are very ready for this little guy to join us. I (Sara) am having a hard time sleeping at night now...I have heard from numerous people that this is God preparing you...so we will see! :)

We finally got a new camera last week and have enjoyed playing with it...so we should have lots of pictures to post once the time comes!!!

Hope everyone has a good weekend!

34 Weeks, 4 Days

Thought you all might like to see some of the pictures from our 3D/4D ultrasound we had done yesterday. He has some BIG cheeks! :)



Everything seems to be progressing well. I (Sara) am home now getting things ready, which has been a nice change of pace. We are very ready to meet this little guys, especially now that we have seen his "picture!" :)

Check out these cheeks!!

This is is foot in his face, he kept kicking himself in the head :)

31 Weeks, 2 Days

Just wanted to post this belly shot for you all. I stole it from Katheryn Morgan's facebook. It's at the family shower this weekend. I was right at 31 weeks...I still have 9 more weeks to go until my due date!! I don't even want to think about how big I am going to be!

30 Weeks, 4 Days

Sorry it has been so long since I posted! Life has been crazy around here! We are busy getting everything ready and time is flying!

I (Sara) am done with work at the end of this month, which will give me about a month to get everything ready for the baby and get some extra rest. I am getting bigger and bigger as the days go by. Most of my maternity tops are getting too tight around my belly now so I guess I need to go shopping again (maybe in Jon's closet?).

Jon is working hard to get the house and yard ready for July and it is all coming along rather well. We had a nice trip to the beach a few weeks back with the Lowery/Van Gorden side of the family. We got a chance to really relax and not HAVE to be anywhere...so nice!

We do have new pictures to post but since we don't have Internet access at home, we will have to get them up from somewhere else. Hopefully soon! Love to all!
