Classic Jackson

For those of you who aren't around Jackson regularly, I wanted to give you a taste of what he's like on a daily basis. This boy just likes to hear his voice...either talking, making up words, or making up songs like he is in the first video. He's a ham and loves to be the center of attention. His Nana Jo & Grampa brought him a fun little stool so he decided it would be the perfect stage for a few performances. (Sorry I had the camera shooting vertically so the video isn't quite right but you still get the drift.)

The Birthday Bash

We celebrated Grayson's First Birthday today. We just had some family and family friends over for a very small party at the house. Grayson woke up in a great mood and was ready to party. By the time we were ready for cake, he was ready for a nap. It was a short and sweet celebration of our little boy and fun was had by all.

Grayson 1 year old!

So baby Grayson is officially 1 year old! He's not too fond of sitting still for pictures at this point so the picture with the giraffe was a challenge. He now crawls like a regular baby (off his belly except when he wants to go really fast then he reverts back to army crawling) and pulls up on everything. He'll scoot along the furniture and thinks he can stand unassisted. He's taken lots of tumbles trying to reach for things. Our Grayson has also decided that he'll just get all of his teeth at once....right now there are 4 visible teeth coming through on the bottom and 2-4 coming through on the top. He's been much fussier than normal but I can't say I blame him. All in all, he's still a happy and cheerful baby. He flirts with everyone and loves his big brother.
