Ten Months of Jackson Nicholas

Jackson Nicholas is 10 months old today, so that means it's time for his monthly update! 

This month was a really big one for our Baby Jack.

Jackson likes:

  • Jackson always has loved to be right in the middle of the action, and that remains the case. He will crawl around to be closer to his people...especially to his big brother. 
  • He loves bath time with Sammy. 
  • He loves listening to books! His eyes get really big and he makes all sorts of noises when he listens to a story. 

Jackson dislikes:

  • Jack likes to be held by his mama and sometimes gets really offended when I set him down. 😂

Eating:

  • Jack still prefers his "milky" but has made some improvements with solids this month. He really loves to eat my homemade sourdough bread. 
  • This was a big month for Jack as he was officially diagnosed with FPIES (Food Protein Induced Enterocolitis Syndrome). He saw an allergist on March 19th, and had some further testing done. At this point, we know that he is allergic to oats and rice, so he must avoid all foods with those ingredients to avoid reactions. I shared more about Jack's FPIES Diagnosis here if you'd like to learn more about it. 

Activities: 

  • Jack is moving all over the place! He is army crawling and just starting to crawl on his hands and knees. 
  • He is beginning to pull himself up on things, but mostly he pulls himself up on us. 
  • His best party trick is shaking his head "no" when we say "no, no, no."
  • He can say "Mama," "Dada," and "Dog Dog." When he sees our dog Roo, he will sign "dog" and say "dog dog." 
  • Anything big brother has, Jackson wants. Who needs baby toys, anyways?
  • This month Jack got his top two teeth, and his eye teeth are starting to come in as well. 
  • He's got lots of light blonde hair coming in, and his eyes are big and blue! 
I can't believe Jack is turning 10 months old! This time last year we were putting the finishing touches on our nursery, and I was just nesting away. We have a hard time remembering what life was like without him. 😊

Here are some of my favorite pictures from this month:

Friday Favorites [5-3-2024]

  Yay! It's Friday and it's the month of MAY! Both of those things are very good things in my book. Today I'm linking up with  Andrea  and  Erika  to share some favorites from the week.  On Monday I shared that we had a busy weekend! My mom and I hosted a Bridal Shower for my sweet cousin Caitlin, and then our new niece and nephew were baptized on Sunday. It was a fun (but tiring) way to spend the weekend!  Jack especially loved all of the family time, and was happy to sneak in some giggles with Great Grandma before the shower began. 😉 We whipped up these  Burrito Bowls  for dinner one night this week, and it was a new favorite. It was such an easy meal that Dustin and I both loved!  It's May, which means that it's time for me to read "Charlotte's Web" to my class. I read it every year during the month of May! This book has seen much better years - I think it's time for a new copy. Haha.  The boys and I love to play in the basement...

Friday Favorites [9-6-2024]

  I'm always happy to see Friday, but especially when the weather calls for... this gloriousness this weekend, I.Can't.Wait.!  I'm linking up with Andrea  and Erika  to share some favorites from our busy, short week!  These brothers get so excited to see each other everyday after school, it melts me! They were together at childcare last year, so it makes me think that they have to be missing each other this year.  Brother time is always a favorite of mine. 😊 The chicken street taco kit from Costco is a favorite as well! This time of year it's important to get dinner on the table quickly and I love that this kit involves minimal clean-up.  This little boy is determined to start walking. He's getting braver and braver by the day!  There's a new flag football player in town. 😉 Sammy started flag football this week and I can't wait to watch him in action this fall! This is his "tough face." Haha.  Sammy's lunches have been a favorite for sure....

Friday Favorites [8-9-2024]

  It's Friday! I'm linking up with  Andrea  and  Erika  to share some favorites from my week.  I don't even know HOW it happened, but this is my last official week of summer. Can you hear me crying from wherever you are? 😅 June passed slowly, but July and August flew. I know that I will blink and the upcoming week will be over.  We've just been over here trying to soak in all  that's left of summer. 😉 On August 6th, Dustin and I celebrated 8 years of marriage! We celebrated with our first date night in an entire calendar year.  With Jack's allergies and Dustin's crazy work schedule, we find it so hard to get out just the two of us. It's a goal of ours to make it a priority this year!  Sammy's Kindergarten backpack, lunchbox and thermos came and he couldn't have been more excited. We loaded up all of his supplies and he is ready. Me on the other hand? I need someone to come over here and hold me. Haha.  Smiley boys at the park are ...
