september update!

We can't believe it - Jackson is now 13 months old! There are so many things that he's learning and mastering (more on that later). We want to post some great photos from September - these photos include our visit home to St. Paul, Jackson's first birthday party, Jackson walking, watching football with daddy, and our lil' precious sleeping.

The whole Bouressa family came to visit us while we were in St. Paul (well, almost the whole family -- Molly was greatly missed). Here are some awesome shots of Jackson and Grandpa Frank and Grandma Chris at the local splash pad:
We went on all sorts of adventures and trips. Just to name a few - mining for gold at the Science Museum, petting animals at the Great MN Get Together, swinging with Pappy, and dipping our toes into the Mississippi River!We made it to the orchard this year. Last year we got to the farm and decided it was a bit to windy and chilly to go apple picking with a newborn. This year was definitely different - the sun was out and Jackson loved eating apples. We went with Jackson's friend Nolan and his parents Missy and Gerry. Watching football on Sunday with his favorite guy. We haven't allowed Jackson to watch TV (he actually isn't that interested in it) but now that football season is here Daddy has it on and Jackson is a bit intrigued but usually ignores it and moves on to his toys (or climbing up the stairs - watch out Daddy!). Here are my two guys taking a few minutes to rest and watch.
The perks of having Tony in graduate school for the past year is having him come home early on certain days of the week. Here we are at a restaurant for lunch where Jackson loved sucking on a lemon. Jackson amazes us in that he is almost perfect out in public and people comment on his happy and intuitive personality. Having fun with Aunt Miranda and learning to walk. The 5th photo below is my favorite because it is the moment that Jackson took about 5 little steps right towards Miranda - this of course is the moment where they are embracing and Miranda gives praise! Walking back home in Columbus.


Plum tuckered out! We love our little man!
