It's Been Such a Long Time

I did not realize it has been so long since I had a fun and exciting blog entry! My apologies! It's been a pretty standard week. Jackson has now had sweet peas, carrots and bananas in addition to the initial foray into sweet potatoes. Sweet peas were not his favorite, but he ate them so I can't complain.

He has, of course, developed yet another illness and has a lovely cough and fever. We had our first call from the day care to come get him...and of course Jason is in Tahoe with the Pikes and Steele partying it up at their annual reunion. So I got to be a single parent all weekend AND go to the doctor. Super. But he rallied last night when Tera came over to watch Baby Mama and hang out and laughed and played like always. Plus I gave him bananas for the first time, which my friend Sarah says are "like crack for babies" and his reaction did nothing to deter me from agreeing with her assessment. He went down at like 9:30 pm, woke up at 1 am for what I am happy to report was just a diaper change, and then slept until 7:30!

Today we are at Grandma and Grandpas, where Jackson will be having his first night sleeping somewhere other than a crib at home or at school. Tomorrow morning Grandma Jane and I are playing in a golf tournament and so rather than get up extra early and drive down in the dark, we are spending the night here and Grandpa Monty will be babysitting all day. Hopefully Jackson doesn't deviate from his usual. Anyways, we miss his dad and will be happy to see him tomorrow, that is for certain.
