jackson is crawlng

Jackson started crawling this week. He had been on the verge for weeks and now he has got the motion down! Look out here Jackson comes! He also pulls himself up. He has fallen several times but just keeps getting back up! He is trying to crawl up the stairs too. He loves everything that he is not supposed to have like cell phones, remote controls, and cords. He's so funny because we try to block him in with pillows and he will try to climb over them and sometimes he actually suceeds! Time to start baby proofing. :)

Jackson turns 6 months!

Jackson is six months now. He is not crawling yet, but is very close. He weighs about 14 lbs. He got more shots today, even a flu shot. He's eating oatmeal, fruits, veggies and brown rice. He has liked everything so far except green beans..can't blame him! Here is a link to more pics! http://picasaweb.google.com/sssastark/6MonthsOld?feat=directlink

Jackson's First Christmas

Jackson had a very eventful Christmas. He spent Christmas Eve morning with his grandparents in San Diego. After that we flew to Colorado. He spent the holidays with his grandparents, great grandparents, Uncle Matt, Aunt Courtney, Uncle Rodolfo and lots of family. It was not snowing, but there was lots of snow on the ground. He got lots of presents, more than he could play with it at one time! Some of his favorites, a cheetah rug, a big teddy bear, john deere tractor, telephone rattle....he loved them all:) We went to his grandparents in Nebraska, Jackson loved seeing the deer and the cows :) We had so much fun and thank goodness he did not take off crawling just yet! Thank you to all our family and friends who made our first Christmas with Jackson so special.

Jackson Snores!

Heres a little clip!

Jackson's Eats Cereal

We fed Jackson oatmeal today. It was hilarious! He seemed to really like it :) Daddy has the technique down.

Jackson's First Thanksgiving

Jackson spent his first Thanksgiving in Yuma and Holtville. Jackson visited his new cousin Matthew. He slept in Matthew's crib and slept through the whole night :) They are going to be best buds! We all went out to dinner and we all actually got through the entire dinner without the kids freaking out! Then the next day we went to Great Grandma Madge's and Asley and Jason's for Thanksgiving. The food was amazing :)

Jackson turns 4 months old!

Time is flying by! Jackson is getting bigger and is doing new things everyday. His favorite thing to do now is roll and talk. As soon as I put him down he rolls right over onto his tummy. Then as soon as he is on his tummy he talks non-stop! He is so strong, he loves to stand with help from mom and dad. He also loves grabbing the remote control from Dad. Jackson is now sucking his thumb and sometimes tries to get his whole fist in his mouth. He had his four month shots yesterday and did very well (mom didn't cry to much either!). Also, Tammy was here from North Carolina :) Jackson stayed with Grandma and Grandpa St.Pierre while I went and voted. It was a busy week!

Happy Halloween

Jackson was a cow for his first Halloween. He looked adorable. We went to a little Halloween party on Wednesday at our class. Grandma Ansley was here to celebrate with us. We went to the game on Saturday and had a great time. Jackson could not take his eyes off the TV! We did lots of shopping with Grandma and Jackson was so good...he slept through it all! Jackson had a little cold this week so we stayed in on Halloween and gave away candy to all the cute trick or treaters.

Jackson's First Flight

Jackson went on his first plane trip on Friday. Jackson, Grandma and Grandpa St.Pierre and I all flew to Sacramento for Great Grandpa St.Pierre's 80th birthday party. Jackson had the full St.Pierre Family party expierence. There was great music, delicious food, card playing and lots of fun! Thank you Aunt Sue and Uncle Maurice for letting us stay and hosting such an awesome party. Happy Birthday Grandpa, we love you! :) Here is link to more pics http://picasaweb.google.com/sssastark/FirstPlaneTrip?authkey=Tm-CxZ8YvmU##

Jackson is finding his vocal cords! He makes all kinds of cute sounds and noises. He now yells! He is not crying, I think he just wants to see how loud this voice of his really can be. It was pretty funny when he yelled in the middle of Chiles while we were having lunch, everyone just laughed!

Jackson is rolling over!

Jackson is rolling over! He rolled over for the first time two weeks ago from his stomach to his back. On Sunday night in front of his Thea Argy and Theo Nick he rolled over from his back to his stomach. This seems to be his rolling of choice....he does it all the time now. This morning I went to his crib to get him and he had rolled over! Guess it is time to stop swaddling him. I'm sad he is getting to big to fast!

Jackson's first trip to the Wild Animal Park

Jackson and I went to the Wild Animal Park today with our neighbor Leah and her son Cameron. It was over 100 degrees, so we were sweating! Poor Leah is 8 months pregnant too. Jackson slept through most of the trip. Next time we will go on a cooler day.

San Diego State vs. University of Idaho

Jackson went to his second game on Saturday. It was also our first win! :) Jackson hung out with his new friend Cali...younger by 4 weeks but already weighs more than Jackson!

Jackson's Two Month Shots

Jackson had his 2 month shots on Tuesday. He did really well, only cried for a minute. I, on the other hand, cried a lot more. Jackson weighed 9.5 lbs and was 22 1/2 inches long. He did really well the rest of the day. Took his sponge bob bandaids off the next day.

Jackson's first football game, Visit from Grandma and Grandpa Stark and Uncle Matt

Jackson attended his first San Diego State football game on August 30th. He came to cheer his dad on in their first 2008 game against Cal Poly. Grandpa St.Pierre, Grandpa and Grandma Stark, and Uncle Matt all attended. Thank goodness I had so much help because I was a little nervous bringing Jackson to such a large event. Jackson had a great time, he hardly slept! Everyone took turns holding and playing with him. We left a little early, which we won't do again because we ended up losing the game in the last seconds of the game :( and we got lost on our way home!
