3 Weeks so far

Here is one of my favorite pictures of Jackson so far. It was one of the first times he was able to keep his eyes open for a long time. He is starting to become more alert every day. We went to his two week appointment and he had put on over a pound from when we left the hospital. So he is now just over 8 pounds.
Today we went over to my Grandparents house. My Mom ended up being there too. We took a four generation picture with my wonderful grandparents and Mom. I owe so much to all of three of them.
Grandpa was funny and wanted to know why Jackie wasn't in the first picture, so we took another one with all of us.
On Friday, Jackie was able to spend the day with Kimmy, Hannah, Bailey, Holly, and Kelly. It is fun for Jackie to have her sisters all near where they can spend time together. Our little niece Hannah was so excited to hold Jackson.
Kimmy and Scott had their second baby girl Bailey on Feb 1st. So Jackson and Bailey are a week a part. So fun to have a cousin close to Jackson in age. Bailey had been in the NICU for three weeks, but is out now and doing well. I can't wait to meet her. I didn't get home from work in time to see them.
Just hanging out together, both wide awake.
Here is Jackson just after getting home from his first Doctor's appointment. He did great at the appointment.
Little Jackson getting one of his sponge bathes. Jackson has been such a joy and we have such a calm baby so far. He is eating great, sleeping great, and doesn't cry all that much. We sure lucked out with this little guy.
