23 months old

Jackson:

Learned to climb out of Yaya's pack n play, got some food in the kitchen, went to get Clarey out of bed then woke Yaya and mommy up.

Can open doors now....going to get safety locks ASAP!

Time out for climbing into the refrigerator multiple times

Knows new body parts: elbow, back, shoulders in addition to the basic ones

Drinks from a juice box, first time drinking apple juice

Words: baby, eyes, nose,

Dramatic "oh no!!" then covers his face. So cute!

"What's that?"
And
"I don't know!!!!"

Waves at everyone wherever we go even of they aren't looking at him

He moved into a toddler bed and on his first night he slept from 11pm-7am, second night 10-7:45 all night long! We are so proud of him!

Family trip to Galveston- loved the beach and was not scared of the waves. His sleeping schedule was off (woke up at 4 am and 6 am)

Galveston Family Vacation

We took another family vacation to our wonderful family friends, The Nalepa's, beautiful beach house.  Jackson loved the beach, sand and waves. He loved hanging out with his cousins and practicing walking up and down the stairs. We visited Moody Gardens, The Rainforest Cafe, The Strand Shops/Dinner at Fishermans Warf and Ryan and I got a date night to see The Dark Knight Rises at the IMAX.

Carter (6), Clarey (4), Campbell (2), Jackson (1)

Can't wait to do it again next year!

Big boy bed

Jackson climbed out of his crib for the first time on Monday night so on Tuesday we took apart his crib and made it into a big boy bed! He is doing surprisingly well sleeping in it.  The first night he slept 11PM-7AM, the second night 10-7:30, third 10-9AM and I think that we are on the right track! He is also napping 3 hrs in it as well.

Happy Birthday Bob-O

Mom Ruth and Jackson's play date

Hooks Family Reunion

Big bang

We went to tour Cowboy Stadium and attended a Texas Rangers baseball game. We had not been since our childhoods so it was a fun day. This game in particular we experienced a lightening strike that felt as if it hit the stadium and then a brief rain storm. The breeze was nice but we are not die hards so we left early and missed all the exciting scores.
