The day that I thought was ages away crept up on me faster than a freight train. Where in the hell did a year go? Wherever it went it's gone and I am now a mom to a 1-year old!
We did our celebrating over the weekend. My sister, grandma and nieces came up from Iowa to celebrate Jackson's big day. It was so awesome to be surrounded by family on his first birthday and he hammed it up for everyone.
Saturday was spent catching up, grilling out, opening gifts and eating cake. Chris took on the task of making Jackson's cake. I love the art work! Jackson must have too since he devoured it in record time. Jackson stayed the night with his cousins at my parents house Saturday night. Sunday the weather was fantastic. We went to church, looked at a house we like, took a long run/walk and stayed outside for most of the day. Jackson's little legs got a big boy workout this weekend.
THANK YOU to EVERYONE who sent packages and gifts for Jackson. He got everything he needed and some things I never knew he would need. See the video below of him with his battery powered ATV from the Bowers. He can't get enough of this toy and quickly figured out how to operate it himself. I also have to let his Grandma Sharon know that all the bath toys she sent were "christened" by Jackson on his birthday. And I don't mean that he peed in the tub if yo get my drift. That was a first for all of us.
Jackson loves and appreciates all his gifts and we do too. THANK YOU again!!!
