Jackson turns ONE!

It feels like it was just yesterday I was rushing to the hospital for long-awaited arrival of this sweet little boy. How has a year flown by already?!

On Saturday, Karen hosted the cutest jungle-themed birthday party for the little man. He had a blast, and so did we! I don't know who enjoyed the cake-eating more- Jackson, or everyone else who was watching him dive in! It was hysterical!




Brother-sister love!








Pa-lease, do you see that little one he is holding up?! Don't think it was intentional, but we'll take it! ;)


those cheeks... :)





Quite possibly the cutest baby boy shoes ever


And now, for the best part...




Ahhhh! hahah- he went all in!


"Hey dad, this is great! We should do this more often!"


...back for more!


All done!

"Thanks for comin, guys!"


Cleaning off at his new water table!




Can you see the resemblance?! ;)



The sugar high... and then the crash. ;)
