Big Joel’s Safari

Jackson is quite the animal lover these days so it is nice to have Big Joel’s not to far from home.

Trip to the Dentist

Yesterday I took Jackson to dentist for the first time.  To my surprise he did Awesome!  We did however take him to a dentist with all the bells and whistles so that didn’t hurt.  We had also taken a tour a few weeks prior with our playgroup so he couldn't wait to see the fish tank and knew all the goodies he was going to get afterwards.  The dentist office swag consist of a popsicle, a balloon, a sticker, a quarter for a prize machine, and a goodie bag with a new toothbrush, toothpaste and floss stick.  Not to mention little brother got some goodies too.  Jackson even sat still for x-rays.  He choose chocolate flavor to get his teeth cleaned with YUCK!

He didn’t want to leave and asked to come back soon.  That made for one happy mom!

ManningFamilyMarch2013_0078
22 pounds,  30 inches and 8 teeth
You are everywhere and into everything! 
You have been walking for about a month now.
You wave, high five and sign “more”.
You love to:
play in the curtains
stand in chairs
climb anything you can
snuggle on the couch
feed the dog
annoy your brother
make big messes.
ManningFamilyMarch2013_0357
You are
funny
sneaky
sweet
stubborn
and dramatic!
