Jackson Updates

It has been a very busy summer with Jackson! We have gotten to do a lot of things with him and have covered a lot of "firsts". He took his 3rd plane trip to Florida to visit Gramma and Grampa Glick. While we were there, he took a ride in a golf cart, visited the ocean and an aquarium, went in the pool for the first time and ate lunch with Shamu and friends at Sea World! We all had a great time!

After that was some time at home. He had swim lessons, which he loved! He was very comfortable in the water and was an expert "floater" when he was able to relax.
For his first 4th of July, we went to see fireworks with Uncle Tommy and his cousin Grayson. He did really well! He watched the firstworks and didn't cry - we were so proud! He also got to experience his first time playing in the grass. He sat on the edge of the blanket and examined the grass with his hands - very cute!


This past weekend, we went to Arkansas to visit Grandma and Grandpa DeVito. It was a fun weekend - Andy and Grandpa played golf while the girls (and Jackson) shopped. Jackson REALLY enjoyed exploring all of the furniture at Grandma and Grandpa's house and climbed under everything. He got to take his first boat ride and enjoyed driving the boat. Grandpa was such a good driver that Jackson passed out and took a nice nap.


Jackson has been using a lot of chairs (including his high chair) as walkers lately, so Andy and I found a little sit 'n ride for him. You can see in the pictures that he figured out how to use it right away and really seems to enjoy it!

Last but not least, Jackson has his two top teeth! We haven't been able to get a good picture of them, but they're coming in quickly! Check back for a picture of his toothy grin soon...
