Jackson is 18 Months Old!!

Our baby boy is 18 months old today!! Some days I feel like he was born yesterday, and other days I feel like he's always been with us.  Either way he is a complete joy and makes us smile and laugh each and every day.  He is our energetic sweetheart who goes a mile a minute all day long.  He is independent, determined and funny.  Jackson has a sense of humor that is very mature for his short 18 months and has understood humor and teasing at a very early age.

Jackson's Stats:

Weight: 25.3 pounds (Less than 50th percentile)
Height: 32.5 inches (50th percentile)
Head size: was in the 90th percentile


Yes, you read that right... our chubby little boy is not as big as we thought.  Actually, he borderline small.  Who would have thought?  

All about Jackson:
We still call him Tassy and he responds like its his name
He loves almost all foods
Jackson still loves his pacifier
He always wants to have his shoes on and likes to stomp around on the hard wood floors
His taggy is another favorite.  He takes the corner and rubs his eyes and his ears with it.
Jackson loves music and always points at it in his room when he wants us to play it.
He screams...  very LOUDLY.  At times it makes Caden cry.
He says Da Da and not Ma Ma :(
He just started giving real kisses this week
Jackson will wave bye bye, blow kisses, sign for "please, thank you, more, and all done"
His ability to stack blocks or any objects is uncanny
He does very well at occupying himself and loves to look at books

Ed's input:
He is tough
When he runs he leads with his head and takes big hits
He's done about 6,000 laps around our downstairs
He throws his head back and slams it into you and I have to be guarded because that head is coming at any time.
He spent his first day in the garage with me last weekend.
Jackson knows that when I try to put him in his crib all he has to do is bury his head into my neck and shoulders and I can never put him down.
