Jake Ryan's Dedication

August 15th, 2010 - Jake Ryan Jackson was dedicated at First Baptist Dallas by Dr. Robert Jeffrees. Both sides of our family came for the event. It went great. The preschool minister brought Jax and Jake down at the end of the service for the dedication. Jake had a few words of his own to say during the prayer and had some great faces for the camera. Jax was amazed by everything and was very well behaved. When they brought the boys in, we were singing a hymn and Jax had his own version singing "You've got a friend in me" (toy story in case you didn't know) It was so cute. What a great day for our family. Following the service, we went and ate at El Fenix in downtown Dallas. It was so nice to be with both of our families. What a great day. My sister took a bunch of pictures. It was hard to see everything from where she was sitting so she got some on the screen as well. Enjoy and we'll keep you posted!

Another fun week

Loved these pictures...especially the second one. We were all about to take a nap and they looked so cute laying there so I grabbed my camera. Jake is a very scheduled little boy and he was ready for his nap...no time for pictures mom :)

We took Jax to see Toy Story 3 this last weekend. He sat in his dad's lap pretty much the entire time and watched the movie. He loves toy story. He has the action figures and a bunch of other toy story things. He runs around the house yelling out "to infinity and beyond" He's so funny. Jake went to the movie to and did awesome!

I've been on the lookout for a tent. In the mean time, I built Jax one to play in in the living room. He loves it.

We've finally started solid foods with Jake. He's 4 months old today! So far he loves bananas. He's ok with sweet potatoes and pares. Its going well. He sneezed after this first picture and got food all over his face. Isn't he a little chunk!

Until next time, we'll keep you posted!

The Jackson Boys

This last week was a pretty ordinary week around our house but of course I still got some great pictures of the boys and what was going on in their lives

Jeremy helped with a bbq dinner out at Mt. Lebanon this past week. We go every year and this year was no different. It was a great dinner (because Jeremy smoked it all :) ) and when we got done, we put Jax to work. We explain to him all the time that one day he will work out here....we just got an early start. The pictures above are of Jax washing a table with Jeremy supervising and then Jax putting up the butter with Grammy. Good times at camp!

This next picture is of Jake on the kitchen table. Jax put his hat on him... He looks like he's in pain. I just thought it was cute :)

These last two pictures are of Jake in my bathroom mirror. I put him up there one day while I was putting on my makeup and he sat and talked to himself for the next 10 minutes. Hours of entertainment as I like to say. His little personality is really starting to come out. He talks and laughs and screams with joy as long as you are paying attention to him. He's totally different from how Jax was at this age. Its neat to watch both of them grow and develop so well. I love my boys! That's it for the week. Until next time, we'll keep you posted!
