Jason's First Christmas

This Christmas was extra special to me. We got to celebrate Jason's first Christmas and let me tell you this boy sure is loved by many. We did Christmas with Big Jason's Dad and Diane the Sunday before Christmas. It was a treat to actually be able to have it our house. It was very exciting to see Jason actually enjoy opening presents but as I expected he seemed to like the paper more than anything. As always we had a wonderful meal provided by his parents and a great fun filled day.

 Christmas morning we always go to Jason's moms house where she provides breakfast for us. I am not sure how we are going to fit this in when J gets older and wants to play longer with Santa's gifts but we will work it out.

Grandma always wanted to have a grandbaby so she could buy him a rocking horse and J loves it

 After we leave grandmas its time for Nannie and Papas for Christmas with the Rabon's. We usually get to mom and dads around 11:00 and have a yummy lunch with everyone. I am so glad we are able to work it out so that we can all spend Christmas together.

Love these girls

 OOOOO looks like fun...his favorite toy so far

 Savannah was so excited about her Barbie.

 This picture cracks me up. We asked all the boys to get together for a picture and Rick notices the kids and the dads lap so he runs and jumps in daddies lap..hilarious

 THe story behind this is that Mom sat on Ricks lap and Stacey comes running in the living room to get a picture and bust her butt. Rick apparently thinks its hilarious and pushes mom off his lap...priceless memories

 All and all we had a great Christmas and we are so very blessed to be able to spend it with the ones that we love. I can not wait for many more Christmas to come and to see the joy on J's face on Christmas morning.

Six Months

We are half way to my baby's first birthday. I can not believe how much time has passed and how much he has grown. Jason truly is a blessing. He is such a joy to be around and is usually pretty much always happy. At six months Jason has already accomplished so much. He is now sitting up on his own with out support. He continues to army crawl all over the place and is now on his hands and knees rocking back and forth but has not accomplished a regular crawl. He will try and pull up but does not have enough strength yet. He will however stand against his toy for a little while without falling so we are building up strength. Know that he is sitting and he enjoying bath time more and more with some added toys. I know there will be the day where he is going to fight me on getting out of the bath. He seems to take after his dad when it comes to eating. There has not been on thing that I have given him that he does not seem to like. If we go out to eat we do have to bring his veggie sticks or he tries to eat everything we have. He is doing well with feeding himself as long as its something long for him the grab. He knows as soon as you bring out the high chair that it is time to eat and I love seeing the excitement in his face. We had his six month check up at 6 1/2 months and Dr. O'leary is happy with his progress. He is still on the small side but she said he is doing great on the growth curve. He did have another ear infection but was no where near as bad as the last two so she said she would not count it towards anything in regards to weather or not he would need tubes.

Army Crawler

So my not even six month old can now army crawl. I can not believe how fast he is growing up. Don't get me wrong I am very proud of my little man but as Stacey brought to my attention I wont have a baby for long. I find it funny that he wants to be just like his big cousin Jackson and crawl around Christmas time. I will be blessed if he turns out anything like Jackson. Here is a video of him crawling. Its not the best but as usually every time I pull out the phone to take a video he doesn't want to do it.
