Presents and Snow Oh My!

Jackson got lots of neat goodies for Christmas like a remote control car, books, a tractor that idles and goes, a kitty that fusses and walks, a See and Say, a ball and gear thingy, laptop, and jam box.  I don't think he ever quite figured out what was going on, but loved all of the attention he got from my parents.  Papa Van and Mama Catherine spent two nights with us, which was awesome.  They watched Jackson open his gifts from Santa.  Steven's parents were going to come on Christmas day, but the weather prevented travel. 

 Jackson was too young to remember the snow from last year, so we were thrilled that he had the chance to really enjoy it this time.  He said "snow" and took a taste of it and then headed down the driveway and up the street. 

 He has been a flight risk while playing outside lately and does not understand why he cant head up the street and down each neighbors driveway.  Steven had to chase him all over the circle, which was hilarious to watch from the door.  We went out twice in the snow, which effectively wore him out, which made for some good napping. 

Mamma Catherine gave him some neat books and read to him.  He is really into books now and will come up to you with one he wants you to read.  So cute.
