Christmas pictures?

We tried to take a Christmas picture but Jackson was more interested in trying to eat the presents! And of course as soon as we gave up trying to get a picture he was all smiles.

Basketball Practice

Jackson wants to be just like his dad and play basketball with the Wightman Jones team. He was practicing his ball handling skills over the weekend.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Jackson enjoyed his first Thanksgiving. He started out at Aunt Diane's with all of the Dozeman's. Then we headed over to celebrate with the Hansen's and the Ford's. Lots of food to eat and lots of fun! Jackson was ready for bed that night since he hardly slept at all during the day - he didn't want to miss any of the fun.

A future Detroit Lion?

Could he be the next famous Hansen on the Lions?

Even more VanderZwaags!

On Saturday we got together to celebrate Christmas with the VanderZwaags before our cousin Kevin left for Iraq. Last year at the Christmas party 8 of us were pregnant! This year as far as we know, nobody is pregnant but wherever you looked you saw a new addition to the family. What a blessing to see all those new babies.

A belated shower for Jackson

Jackson actually attended a baby shower for himself on Sunday! Our family friends, the VanDorps, threw a shower for Jackson. The last time Jackson hung out with the VanDorps was when he was 4 days old so it was definitely more fun this time! Thanks for a great time and all the presents guys!

Happy Halloween!

We dressed Jackson up like a pirate. His friends Collin and Dylan were also pirates so we had to get their picture. My mom made the costume and even bought him a sword to go with it. She was sad that she had to miss him because she's in Florida. We made quite a few stops and even stopped to see our friend Doug Barense, a pirate fanatic. He greeted us with his eye patch on.
