Just Like Daddy

In preparation for baby #2 we moved Jackson into a new big boy room. We procrastinated on getting this done for a long time, but this week finally got to work. We had to clean out the guest room first. Here is Jackson helping Daddy take the guest bed apart.




And yes, he is naked. He went potty and then mommy failed to dress him prior to pictures. But, it is such a well placed bar!

The next couple of days we painted the room and began putting shelves, etc. together. And of course, Jackson had to be part of the action.




Jackson transitioned so well into his new big boy bed and room. Now we just have to mentally prepare him for the new baby's arrival!!

Story Time

We babysat Ella and took the kiddos to the stock show. The loved the animals and even got kisses from a bull! After bath time, we all sat in the chair for some stories before bed. I can't believe my pregnant self fit in the chair with two toddlers!

Fiesta Bowl Champs

Texas played in the Fiesta Bowl against Ohio State this year. We watched the game with some of our friends from OSU. We all had fun especially since Jackson has a party trick to show off. When you ask Jackson what a Longhorn says he puts his hands in the air and says "touchdown". It is seriously cute!

Here are Jackson and I getting ready for the game. Pregame always includes putting on our burnt orange and reading a little Elmo!!

Happy New Year and 20 Months Old



Happy New Year to all. Hope everyone had a great holiday. Jackson turned 20 months old. He is doing so many new things. I think he picks up 1-3 words a day now and is starting to string words together. Some of his favorite sayings right now are "No, No Kykie" (our dog), and he shrugs his shoulders and says "i'd know" (i don't know). His favorite food appears to be oatmeal since it is the first thing he says every morning. He has been so much fun lately, it is a great age!!
