One Week

We must be doing something right because Grant is 1 week old today!

It's so amazing to think that he's been with us this long already. MELT MY HEART! I love getting this great big smile from him. It makes all my tired and overwhelmed feelings just go away (at least for a moment).

The first bath looked just like this one

Grant Stanley Jackson

February 20thBorn on my Grandpa Stan's Birthday
Thus the middle name
He has a DIMPLE on his right cheek!


He makes lots of little bird noises. He even makes bird faces.
Note the "owl" expression above.

He loves to be held and makes the sweetest faces while he's sleeping.

Mommy & Daddy are so happy to have him here.

Valentine's Day

We went to the Phoenix Botanical Gardens on Valentine's Day. They have really cool glass sculptures on display right now throughout the gardens. These are some of our favorites.

This sculpture is hanging from the ceiling. It looks like a Christmas tree hanging upside down.

This is a boat full of glass balls.

This is my Valentine. Isn't he handsome?!

So we did LOTS of walking that night. I could barely walk by the end (crazy hips!).

I'll have that well done, please.

This is our tiny little nephew, Ryan. Keith's oldest sister had him 7 1/2 weeks early. I guess he just wanted get here before his cousin. I can't even imagine how small he is in real life, but he didn't even weigh 4 pounds when he was born. He's doing great. It's amazing to see new pictures of him every few days and he just keeps looking better and better. We are so excited that he made it here safely. Can't wait to see him!

Our boy is due TODAY! He's probably not coming today, but that's okay. It just means that he'll be well done when he does come.

Passing Time

Enjoying the beautiful evening on the putting range Thursday night. It was such a warm day- it was amazing that I could be out there in the evening without a jacket! I love Arizona winters!
