Happy Birthday Jackson!!!

Today, Jackson is 3 years old! I can't believe that 3 years ago I was impatiently waiting his arrival. Jackson was like Morgan and came right on his due date. When I first found out we were having a boy, I was excited, but also nervous. I hadn't been around boys very much, and didn't really know how to take care of one, but as the saying goes "A boy is a joy!" and that is so true. Jackson has been so much fun! I had no idea that boys could be so much fun. I thought that he would look exactly like Brian, and I was shocked when he came out with blonde hair, and my nose and mouth, and he was a little bruised up too, the poor guy... wasn't exactly the most attractive baby :) but we loved his sweet little spirit instantly. Jackson has always loved to cuddle. The only way he would sleep well through the night was if he was cuddling with me, & I LOVED it! (It's funny now, because Hallie & Morgan love their space, and Jackson still loves to cuddle.) I am so grateful to have Jackson in our family, and in my life. He can always make us laugh & has such a sweet and strong spirit. He is so social with everyone he sees, and is constantly talking
about when he is older, and the things he will do. He loves to play with Morgan, and treats Hallie so well, and he loves it when it's just the boys (he and Daddy) and when they go camping, or when Jackson can go to work with him, and help him out with little things. My sweet little boy is 3... where did that little baby go? It's gone way to fast, but I love all the things he's learning, and how he says "Mommy, tell me who you love" I love YOU Jackson!
Last night we took the kids to a park to take some 3 year old pictures of Jackson. He's getting out of the toddler stage, and growing into the cutest little boy!
These are some of our favorites... what a handsome little kid!

Here are some more pictures through the last 3 years of our little guy.

Jackson has been such a fun little boy. He makes life even more enjoyable. Happy Birthday!
