HAPPY BIRTHDAY JACKSON BOY!

Our Jackson Monster is 2 years old today. It's hard to believe that he's been with us for 2 years already. He is so sweet that he just melts your heart. That sweetness turns mischievous all too quickly - remember the toilet adventures??

Jackson started his special day with a delicious breakfast made to order. He began with a hot dog appetizer (Yum!), and moved on to his main course - cinnamon and sugar toast with bday candles, and chased it all down with a sippy cup full of hot/warm cocoa. Mmm!


Lizzie helped him open 2 gifts (everyone had already gone to work and school by the time Jackson got out of bed). A new outfit and his favorite - toy cars!

He measured in at 2 feet 10 3/4 inches - that's the tallest any of our kids measured at 2 years. How can that be when he looks like such a shrimp?
Here's his vocabulary list so far:
Uh-oh

hot

hot dog

light

bye-bye

poo poo

dog

mom

dad

all done

night night

baby

bath

more

open

socks

dog

blanket (he says, "goo-gah" for Samuel's baby blankie)

shoes

go

up

down

Jackson shares his special day with some Hollywood stars (Grandpa Louie this is for you - right from the birthdays in the Life section of the Fresno Bee!): Dennis Quaid and Kristen Stewart (Kristen will play Bella in the upcoming Twilight series movies!!)

Jackson, we wish you all the best this year. Show the world there is NO SUCH THING as Terrible Twos!
