Christmas is coming...

The finished product



Last weekend we prepared our home for Christmas.  It was really cozy with the thick fog outside.  However since Ryan was out there in it he may disagree with that statement.  But he did a wonderful job getting our tree up and putting all the lights up outside.  We really are enjoying this season.  After we put up the decorations Ryan went to our friend Ryan's MMA fight and Jackson and I went to Heathers to comfort her while her husband was fighting.  He won and didn't break any bones this time, so all went well


Jackson, all ready to hang with Emery

Ryan has been taking on a room at a time, and painting the trim.  He finished the living room and dinning room, and last Sunday we painted the entry way, and staircase.  It is amazing how much better it looks but is a little more time consuming with a little one.

Two Months Old



Well Jackson has grown, and grown, and GROWN!  Today at baby connection he weighed more than all the other babies we know, even Juliet who is four weeks older. He is nearly doubled his birth weight. He has gotten so long...25 inches, but is still fairly thin, although he is starting to get chubby arms and legs, and of course has adorable chubby cheeks.  His onsies are too big around and too short.  Sounds like he may be taking after his Dad.

Baby Boot Camp


Last week I started Baby Boot Camp.  Its a great workout program that allows you to bring your baby.  I had no idea how sore I'd be but also how great I'd feel.  I'm the kind of person that when working out gets hard I tend to stop, so It's great to have a trainer to kick my butt, as well as other moms to keep up with.  We have a fitness test coming up in February and I'm hoping to be ready and get my Boot Camp shirt, It's going to be tough to prepare but It gives me a goal to work towards. 

Emily took these photos of Jackson sleeping (allowing me to finish my workout :)
