Happy Easter!!!

I hope everyone had a wonderful Easter--Jackson got a lot of great things from the Easter Bunny! Saturday we went over to Grandma Frey's house for a Easter egg hunt and dinner. Jackson made $11.85 from his hunt and his basket from Grandma and Grandpa Frey--he is so spoiled:) He probably has more money in his savings account than we do. Jackson also started taking steps all on his own this weekend--Natalie and Erica (Josh's cousins) worked a lot with him Saturday and then Sunday at home he got up all on his own three times and took about 8 steps with no help!!!!! He is such a big boy-I am sure it will not be long till he is walking. I will keep you posted:)

All Tired Out:)

Some more early Easter pics

Well Monday night Jackson and I went over Stacy's house to have her take some photos of Jackson in his Easter outfit. As you can see he was not interested--no smiles which is very unusual for him. We did have a good time and Evan smiled like a good little boy:) Jackson also learned that he could reach the door handles in her house-he used all his might to escape the photo session in Evan's room. Hope you enjoy the boys:)

Early Easter!

We had a big weekend-went to Toledo for an early Easter with my parents and Kelly and the kids. Of corse we had to go to the mall and as you see the kids wanted to play on the Tonka trucks instead of shop:) Jackson had fun with his Grandma and Grandpa-played his little heart out. My parents will be in Akron for Easter that is why we had to celebrate early. When we got home on Sunday Grandma Jill came over with Jackson's basket and as you can see he was into all of the candy!!! Grandma Jill will be at Jeremy's to see Jackson's new cousin for Easter. I will put some pictures of their little one on the blog when Jill gets home:) I hope everyone has a good week and Jackson says "Go OSU!!!!"

Just an update

Well jackson decided it would be tons of fun to cut 4 teeth over the weekend--3 of his 1st molars and one in the front. Now he has a total of 10 teeth--such a big boy mouth. No more toubles with him eating:) Hope everyone had a good St. Patty's Day!!

Look at all my teeth!

Happy St. Patty's Day!!!

Birthday Party!!!

Over the weekend we had Jackson's 1st birthday party. It was so much fun-it was a tractor theme of corse:) He was not to excited for cake--would have rather played with all of his new toys. He had a lot of fun with all the kids at the party! Grandma Margie and Grandpa Nick got him a wagon--will be very useful at the campground this summer. Jackson would like to thank everyone for all the awsome gifts!!! He is a VERY lucky little boy.

His cake!

Happy Valentine's Day!!!

Well we had a fun the last couple of days in Van Wert:) According to the news we got 12 in. total!!! Jackson spent his first V-day stuck in the house--was fun hanging out with my little valentine:)

As you can see it was quite a mess--lots of clean up. Things have calmed down today-back to work and the sitter. Hope you all had a Wonderful V-day!!

Happy Valentine's Day from Jackson!

Our weekend started out great---Jackson and I met Kelly and the kids in Lima for dinner and some shopping (as you can see the mall had some fun farm animals) always fun to see them. Saturday Jackson and I spent some time with my girlfriend Kristin in Ft. Wayne--good times had by all:) Then Sat. night Josh and I got some quality alone time while Grandma Jill watched Jackson over night--Grandma's are great!!! Then things got bad on Sunday--Jackson got a REAL bad cold. He had Grandma up most of the night Sat. and us up most of the night Sun.--So I am home with him today. I hate when he is sick. I feel so helpless. Hopefully he feels better soon and can return to the sitters tomarrow.

Spending time with Grandma and Grandpa

Jackson was pretty busy while Daddy was gone. He helped do some work on the house, went to the library for the first time and helped bake cupcakes for mommy while she was hard at work:) Even though he had fun spending the week with his grandparents he missed his Daddy A LOT! Jackson was glad to see him friday night--you should have seen the smile on his face--priceless! We are glad to have daddy home.

Helping buld the new closet in the office--he did a wonderful job!

Spending time with Daddy

Well Josh left Saturday for his yearly snowmobile trip with the guys. As you can see Josh and Jackson spent some quality time together before he left. I am sure they will BOTH miss each other a lot! Jackson is a big Mommy's boy right at the moment, but boy does he love his Daddy!!!

Jackson and Evan

Last friday night Jackson and I went over Evan's house to play, as you can see they really love eachother:) Evan is 5 months old now--he is growing up so fast and is such a cutie! I am sure they will grow up to be best friends and give their parents lots of gray hairs:)

We Still Love The Bucks!!!

Ok so the Bucks were definitely off last night---but Jackson does not care if they win or loose:) He is just happy to be a OSU fan!!!
Josh's comment about the game this morning was that if Lincolnview(his high school) had a football team they would have beat the Bucks last night:)
