JAckson is now running mommy and daddy ragged because he can crawl and is currently exploring the house and where ever he might be on all fours...some things he has discovered: the bathroom which has the bathtub that he loves, the stairs (mommy had a dream he climbed all the way up them last night), the dog water bowl and food bowl (he has sampled both...yuck!), the dog bed (mommy is tempted to throw it out because he comes off of it with enough dog hair to cover his whole body!), and many other interesting things that usually spell trouble!  He is also standing up on most things and like to let go, he is also figuring out how to sit down from a standing position.  He also likes to get into a position where he is on his hands and feet with his bum in the air...which I am sure means he will be walking in no time! 

He is eating real solid food such as spaghetti (check out the pics), he loves most anything that is edible...well except for ketchup which he just had to have a little of when he saw it on mommy's plate, but quickly screamed his head off until he got a drink of water and his face wiped. 

He went on his first vacation to Aunt Margie and Uncle Ryan's house in North Carolina, he is a great traveler!  He also just recently got home from his first camping trip, where he got very dirty and we discovered he is not afraid of torrential downpours, lightning, or thunder!
