Eating Has Become so Much Fun!

So as you all know, Jackson has been trying out solid foods for a little while now. For the most part, it was getting him used to eating from a spoon and not always sucking to get food. This resulted many of the time in more food on him then in his tummy! But he is finally starting to get the hang of it. He is actually really enjoying eating from his highchair- at least most of the time. I have found that he definately likes fruits better then veggies! But then again, what kid doesn't feel this way?! Sophie has taken to spitting hers out at Bonnie- so hopefully Jackson won't take it to that level!

Jackson is now 5 months old, and i just can't get over how big and grown up he is looking already! My neighbors, Lora and Brandon just had their second baby, Mari, and she is such a little peanut! I saw her yesterday, and Lora said that she now weighs 7lbs- that is what Jackson weighed when he was born. But yet it is so hard to believe that he was ever that small. So I had to go back and look at my older photos of him, and you should do the same. Look at pictures from the February/March album and then go into one of the more recent ones, like July. It is just amazing. He is growing in leaps and bounds. When other moms tell me to savor every moment because they all go by so fast, I completely understand what they are saying. My little Prince is changing before my eyes, and it makes me feel a whole slew of emotions. I am so proud of the new adventures and abilities he is able to accomplish, but at the same time I want everything to slow down! Everyday is fun, exciting and something new.
