Jackson - Watch Me Grow - 8 Months

8 Months - 10 May 20117 Months - 10 April 20111 Week - 17 September 2011 Looking at the pictures this month I can't believe how much of a difference there is between Jackson's 7 and 8 month picture! He is sitting up so well it looks like he's grown a neck. I guess I should have realized he had gotten significantly better at sitting up on his own this month as I feel much more comfortable with him sitting and playing in the bathtub.

Jackson rolls anywhere but he is not working real hard on crawling or pulling up. I guess you don't have too when you have two big sisters who are willing to get you just about anything you need and/or want! lol :)

Jackson's sleeping patterns leave a little to be desired at the moment... We are really struggling to get him to sleep through the night. Some nights he wakes up nearly every hour. I love this baby boy but there are some hours of the night I'd rather not spend so much time with him... Luckily 99% of the time he goes right back down. It's just staying asleep that we've got to get figured out.

We have another very independent little person on our hands. Mr. Jackson is determined to feed himself. There are times when you would think he was being skinned alive if you put him down for a meal and he can see we have food he doesn't. He loves food and he loves to feed himself! We have had to work hard at figuring out things he can feed himself or how we can adjust our food (like shredding cheese) so our little two tooth wonder can participate the way he would like in the wonderful world of food. What a little goof!

As Grand-Dad told me this month, "Jackson doesn't need many toys to be happy he just wants to be held." This is a great description of Jackson. He is such a sweet little snuggle bug! He just wants to be right with us and love on all of us all the time! We are so blessed to have such a precious little lover in our family!
