Jackson is 2.5 years old!

Jack is on his way to being 3 years old!  Our little guy still loves, loves, loves trucks and cars!  He knows all of his construction trucks and can often be overheard correcting Mommy if I show him a truck:  "Mommy, that's not a bulldozer, that's an excavator!".  I'm not kidding.  He loves learning and reading and playing.  He has two really good friends at school and call them his "buddies".  They are all moving to the 3-year old room in January and Jack is looking forward to his new playground but will miss his amazing teachers.

I wish we could write down all of Jack's quotes as he says the best things.  During a recent conversation about boys and girls Jack said, "I'm not a man, I'm a boy.  I'll be a man on Friday or after Christmas".  He was very serious!

Jack's favorite foods include waffles or pancakes for breakfast with lots of milk to drink and for lunch he loves a variety of foods but usually eats yogurt!  For dinner he is very good about eating his spinach and broccoli and also loves PASTA and grilled chicken.  He does love his chocolate and special "treats".  

He is looking forward to Christmas but doesn't know what to think about Santa!

Jamaica!

Mommy and Daddy got away for 4 days to Jamaica for Uncle Nick and Aunt Alicia's wedding!

Trick or Treat

Although Jack did not feel well, he felt well enough to go out and Trick or Treat.  He had fun as Bob the Builder and enjoyed filling up his bucket with candy.  We ended the evening by going out to dinner to his favorite place-the diner!  

 

Happy Halloween

Pumpkins and Apples!

This weekend Jack picked his pumpkin and a bag of apples. He had so much fun grabbing the apples and tossing them in the bag.  Click here for more pictures!

Vermont "Leaf Peeping"

We recently went to Vermont for the weekend and stayed Uncle Rock and Aunt Kim's house. Jackson enjoyed the cider mill, corn maze, gondola ride to the top of a mountain and the "pizza shop". He was a trooper in the car and slept all the way up and back! He liked playing with his baby cousin Caleb.

Summer 2008 Photos

We had a really fun summer around the house and at the beach. We went to Beach Haven in New Jersey and spent an extended weekend at a bed & breakfast. Jackson LOVED the beach and wasn't afraid of the water. He even took a 2 hour nap on the beach! We also spent a lot of time outside playing with trucks, golfing, finger painting, playing in many.

Jack's 2nd Birthday Pics

Jack had a great time at Muscoot Farm celebrating his 2nd birthday with friends and family. The rain held out and we were able to roam around the farm, take a tractor ride and eat some cupcakes and pizza!
