Santa and I

Hi there! It's been a very long time since Momma has updated about me :( We have been very busy and I have been changing every day. I now go to school (daycare center) and I love it! Each morning I ask for school. I have met a lot of new friends and I love my teachers. I still ask for Ms. Molly and my old friends but I get to see them every now and then so that it good. Momma will do a new entry soon with some new pictures of me but for now check out my picture with Santa. Momma took me a couple of weeks ago to see Santa and that did not go well at all! I cried and wouldn't let him touch me. Momma then called Ms. Molly and asked which Santa she was helping and we went there and wow what a difference. I went right up to Santa and kept saying Hi Santa and then he reached for me and up I went on his lap, no tears and lots of smiles. Santa asked me what I would like for Chrismas and I said, um presents! I then told him trains and explained to him that trains say choo choo. Christmas will be a lot of fun this year with me sort of getting it. I keep asking Momma and Dada for presents every day. In a couple of weeks I won't have to ask anymore :)

Enjoy and I'll check in again soon!

Happy Halloween!!!

Happy Halloween!!! Well I finally made it out to Trick-or-Treat this year :) It was a rough road to this though as I woke up sick this morning and had to miss school. That was sad because today was my party and parade. Momma and Dada had even planned to come as they were still on vacation today. I went to the doctor and I have a viral infection and as long as my fever stayed away I was given the go ahead to have some fun, and belive me I had a lot of fun! I only got scared at one house and I wasn't the only one. After that I was a bit shy but then came out of my shell. I would go up to the house by myself and loved ringing the bell. I even said trick-or-treat and then I also said thank you. However, I did tend to get more than one piece of candy at each house as I distracted people with my good looks. Hope everyone had an awesome night and here are some pics from my adventure.

Jackson's Dance Moves

My First Wedding Reception

Last night Momma's cousin Sara got married. I have never been to a wedding reception before so Momma and Daddy were a bit worried about how I was going to act. I did WONDERFUL!!! I ate my food, which by the way was great! We got to hang out with a lot of Momma's family and my Great-Grandma Bonnie even came from Reno, NV so I got to see her. I then danced, danced, and danced. I had a blast and kept going all night. I loved the music and the lights so much. We took some pictures but unfortunately some are blurry as I was just moving too fast :) Congrats to Sara and Jason and thanks so much for inviting us!!!!

City Park, Iowa City

I LOVE City Park in Iowa City!!! Grandpa Tom and Grandma Lee Ann came down and with the fabulous weather off we went. I always get to bring bread to feed the ducks and then I get to ride the rides there. This year I was able to ride them all and I LOVED it! This will become one of our favorite hang outs when the weather is nice. Although I am sad as the rides only go from Memorial Day until Labor Day :( Momma got lots of pictures so enjoy!

Eagle Point Park, Dubuque IA

A month or so ago we were bored on a Saturday so we up and decided to head to Dubuque to Eagle Point Park. We had a lot of fun and the weather was perfect! I loved seeing all of the boats and watching them in the dam. The fish pond was cool too except I couldn't see any fish. We then found a playground for me to run around and climb and I loved it. Here are some pictures we took.

My aunts, uncles, and cousins came and I am a very loved and spoiled boy! Thank you thank you thank you to everyone for the wonderful gifts as Momma didn't get thank you notes out due to my getting ill and going down hill from there. Sorry about that but do know I appreciated them all!!!! Momma's cousin Shawna made me my awesome shirt and then redid my blog design to match. Thank you so much Shawna!!!
