Mountain weekend...will catch up soon!

WOW!! Jackson arrived July 24, 2012 and life has not been the same since. We are BEYOND blessed to have him in our lives...can't imagine life without him now. But this baby is a full time job leaving no time to post pictures and tell everyone about how cute he is :)

But cute he is! He is 11 weeks old and growing like a weed. He spends his days doing the usual baby things: eating, sleeping, and making dirty diapers. These days he is holding his head up pretty well. He has a contagious smile, and he loves to "talk" to anyone and anything including the air vent above his changing table, any fan, and the fall garland on our mantle. 

I have finally loaded pictures from the camera so I plan to catch up the blog as quickly as I can. But, I figured everyone would love to see pictures of him now...so here are some pictures from last weekend.

We took our first road trip with baby Jackson this past weekend. Dana's parents were so sweet to let us stay at their house in Sky Valley for a little mountain weekend with Jason, Dana, and Hampton (Garrett was at a retreat for the weekend).

Jackson was great! We were so proud of how well he traveled and he slept great in his pack and play. He LOVED sitting out on the patio near the outdoor fire place and look up at the trees and the sky...he just smiled and cooed the whole time (hoping I can figure out how to load a video on here). Saturday morning we went up to Highlands to shop around and have lunch. Then we spent the afternoon watching football outside on the patio...complete with a fire in the outdoor fire place. (We won't talk about the Georgia game against South Carolina, but we watched that too...well most of it).

It was so nice to have a change of scenery and to know that we could actually go out of town with a newborn :) It was also great to spend some quality time with family! Enjoy the pictures!
