Happy Thanksgiving

We celebrated Thanksgiving this year at Grandma and Grandpa Johnson's. Here are a few pictures from Jack's first Thanksgiving.

Four generations

Florida!

Jack and I took a trip to Fort Myers Beach last week to visit Grandma and Grandpa McCulla. Aunt Brittany and Avree also joined us. Jack did a great job traveling. I received many compliments from other passengers on how good he was. No one could believe a baby could stay that quiet on a plane!

We had perfect weather the entire week....80 degrees and sunny! Our plans each day revolved around Jack and Avree's napping schedule. I think this was a big change from Grandma and Grandpa's routine....they are used to being on the go all day long! We spent most of our days swimming at the pool, visiting the beach, and shopping. Jack's favorite was the swimming pool. He really loves being in the water....I think this makes Daddy proud!

We had a great week of quality family time. The only thing missing was Jay....who had to stay home to work. Jack and I missed him a lot and we were very excited to get back home to see him!!

First plane ride

I don't like this goofy hat Mom!

He's a happy boy in the pool!

First time at the beach

And he's off! There is no way the sand was going to stop him!

The whole gang!

Jack trying to eat the sand. Yes, everything goes in his mouth!

Avree, the cheetos monster!

He was a very tired boy after a long day of swimming!

7 months old

Jack is 7 months old today! He is growing and changing so much every day. He is still a very active little boy....always on the move and always looking for anything he can get his hands on. Mommy and Daddy are constantly trying to stay one step ahead of him! Learning to crawl was his big accomplishment this past month. In addition, he now has two teeth, he loves to make motorboat noises with his mouth, and he laughs out loud and smiles all the time! He is a very happy little boy!

He was more interested in kicking his feet than smiling for the camera!

He's on the move!

Just a few days ago, Jack decided it was time to start crawling. It's a modified crawl, almost resembling a catepillar....but it gets the job done!

As you can see from the video, this kid already loves the remote! It must be a guy thing.

Jack's 6 month pictures!!

Naked cowboy

Jack was hoping to dress up as the naked cowboy for Halloween this year. We told him he would be too cold.

Happy Halloween!

Jack wishes all his family and friends a happy Halloween!! Our little lion had an exciting first Halloween. He helped Daddy hand out candy to the trick-or-treaters on beggar's night and he also spent an afternoon playing with the Johnson cousins in their costumes. Unfortunately for Jack, he will have to wait until next year to enjoy the Halloween candy!

Everything goes in this kid's mouth!

Grandma Johnson and the cousins

Such a happy lion!
