What we've been up to...

We have been so busy this month! First we had Easter, Scott turned 38, we are preparing for Preston's first and this weekend is Beth's wedding in Austin! I've been saving up pictures so I'm just going to catch up all at once.

Everyone knows Jackson is very independent, and very strong willed. We know he can change his own pullup, complete with using baby wipes and A&D. Now, he likes to control his wardrobe choices as well. And sometimes, it's just not worth the fight. Last weekend, he told me he wanted to go for a walk. He still had his jammies on so I told him he couldn't go for a walk until he got dressed. This is the result (and yes, his shorts are on backwards and unzipped).

I just couldn't resist getting Preston this shirt...Two weekends ago, Jackson wanted to go to the zoo on Saturday night. This is what he wanted to do instead of going to bed. We promised him we would take him the next day and he made us follow trough. It was so nice out and we actually got there at a decent time. We had a picnic - Jackson fed most of his lunch to the birds and Preston ate his food plus what Jackson didn't give to the birds. He has become a grabber. We had them side by side eating oatmeal cookies and Preston grabbed Jackson's cookie so he had one in each hand. Sound familiar? We got to see a lot of the animals actually awake which is rare for us. Jackson told most of the animals, "I sorry you're in cage." It was sweet.

We are soooo not ready for this!

Easter 2010

For Easter, we did our usual Easter Egg Hunt and Brunch at the country club. Jen, Tom, Libby and Steve ("Ibby" and "Seed") joined us. Jackson found 4 eggs and Preston got loads of attention. We had a great time!

This past week has been big for Preston. First, he said his first word other than "mama" or "dada." He smiled real big and held his arms out and said, "Tickle tickle tickle!" It was pretty funny. Then, yesterday while I was cleaning up the kitchen, he stood for a good 5 seconds or so without holding on to anything! I'm sure he will be walking before we know it. This is going to make life so much busier! We are proud of our baby but he's growing up too fast.

Cruisin'

The weather has been so nice that we've been spending more time outside. Jackson still loves the truck he got for his birthday and Preston loves to ride with him. Now that its been warmer, they've actually gotten to cruise around the neighborhood.
