Jackson is Officially a Walker Now!!!

How cool is that?!! At about 9 months Jackson started cruising furniture pretty good and started taking one or two independent steps before plopping on his butt. So we knew that walking wouldn't be too far off. We just didn't know just how soon it would be!

Last week we spent a lot of time with Bonnie and the girls playing of course and just enjoying each other’s company. Jackson and I even got to baby-sit Sophie while our Anna had a photo shoot to be in Highlights Magazine! How special that is for her. We are so proud! Well like I said in my last journal entry, Sophie is a pro at walking- she is so sure of herself and FAST! We think that spending so much time with her and trying his darndest to keep up gave him inspiration to walk. Because all of a sudden last week he went from taking about 5 steps at a time to walking across the room! Go Jackson Go!!!! He's not solely walking yet because his "Wounded Knee Crawl" and one legged scoot is so much faster. But he is on his way. It is so exciting! Good job little man, we are so proud of you!


**On a side note, Jackson got this adorable rocking horse from Aunt Debbie, Uncle Bob and Sara. He loves it! When Sophie was over the two of them played with it forever. They love making it sing and Sophie can't just help herself from dancing along. I have posted pictures, so be sure to check them out- too cute!
