One Month Down!

First some pictures...





Sorry we have not posted in over a week, the days seem to just slip away from me and when I do have a moment alone the blog is the last thing on my mind!!!

Jackson turned one month old on Sunday. Its hard to believe!!! In some ways it feels like I delivered him yesterday and in other ways I can't imagine life without him in it. The past four weeks have definitely had its challenges. But day by day things get a little easier. Jackson and I are trying to get into a routine during the day and when daddy gets home he has bath and bedtime routine.

At his one month visit he was a very health 12lbs 12oz and 22 1/4 inches. Basically he is gaining a pound per week!

This past weekend we took Jackson up to Mass to a first communion at Leah's house. He got to meet his Aunts and a few cousins ( Anthony has the pictures to that....)
Saturday night Nannie and Papa B babysat while Anthony and I went on a hot date to the Omaha Steak store and a quick dinner.

Sunday morning Nannie took Jackson at 6am and Anthony and I slept till 9!! It was great. We then got ready and Papa B fed Jackson before we headed over to Papa and Grammie Goldsmiths.

Papa took us all out to smokey bones for lunch. Of course Jackson woke up right when the food came out but Papa fed him and Jackson was then happy again, so happy he pooped his pants. This is the second restaraunt we have gone to that does NOT have a baby changing station in the bathroom, oh well, the backseat of the truck works just as well.

Ill try to post more often and send updated pictures. Im sure they'll be more post and pictures as I get ready to celebrate my first mother's day this Sunday!!! Crazy!

Time certainly has gone by so fast, and he changes every day.
He is so cute.

I can't beleive I have two little guys.... WOW, and one will be a year old already. OH MY STARS!!!

I can't wait to have my two little guys together again for some new photo shoots.

You are doing a good job being a mummy, its all new, exciting, crazy, scarey and everything else, but somehow you get used to it, and you look back and say how did we do that???

Remember what I always tell ya.

"AND THIS TOO SHALL PASS".

pretty soon when he is smiling and talking to you, it will be unbelievable.

See you on Mothers Day Jackson....

Love, Nannie..

can you believe Callum only outweighs Jackson by 8 pounds? When you think about it like that, it is crazy! We cant wait to see him soon. I'd like to see pics from the communion....

Callum said...

Jackson, when are you going to make your first trip up to Maine? I have lots of things to show you!

Auntie said...

Jackson, what did you have to eat at Smokey Bones? We can't wait to see you again! What are you getting your Mom for Mother's Day? You can tell me. I won't tell...

I love the first picture - Jackson is so alert! He is adorable.

I'm still too young to travel more than 1hr. Maybe by the fall.

Isn't is still a bit strange to think of yourself as a mommy? Jackson looks absolutely adorable in your pictures...he's such a cutie!
