forever changing

It is funny how fast this first year has gone. It makes more and more sense how people constantly look back and amazed at what they have missed in life. Jackson brings a whole new element to this formula.

He is growing so quick, which is more fun than anything. But the music in this Ipod has not been paused to take in as much as i would have hoped. It is a race to get home, to see him for 30 minutes. Those minutes are oh so precious.

I have been tagged, bath man. It use to be a blast. Now Jackson has decided that his 26 lb chubby body is scared of the waterfall(faucet) and sharks(rubber ducky). Yet, even while he is balling, i still enjoy every minute. As soon as i lift him from the scary wet porcelain, he is at peace and hugging his dad.

I am forever thankful for my son and my wife. I have been very blessed. Hope to talk to you soon.

Crawling.

You have to watch the whole video; it'll make you smile.

Long time no see.

Man, it's been a long time since we've posted. Sorry to any of you who actually follow the blog. Time goes by fast. Jackson now has six teeth. He is cruising along anything he can get his hands, even walls. He has taken a step towards me a couple of times, but doesn't have the balance to stay up. As soon as he pushes himself off the furniture he falls. He wants to walk, but just isn't there yet. Even though he is only a little over eight months, I feel that he is looking less like a baby and more like a toddler. He is a very sweet busy boy.

This last weekend we packed up the family and headed to our favorite weekend getaway, Cannon Beach. It was absolutely gorgeous weather. I don't know how we do it, but the past few weekends we have gone there the weather has been amazing. Here are some photos of the weekend.
