It feels like weeks since I last posted. Which it probably has been, our lives are pretty busy at the moment. These photos are from about two weeks ago and I already think little Jackson has changed. He loves his time with his Dad - as you can see. News at the moment - Jack and I have terrible colds and are both staying home today - Brad is thankful to be out of earshot of me blowing my nose - it is REALLY bad! since I last posted I turned 29 - we had a great day enjoying breakfast out down at Salamaca with Tim and Caz, while later I got to sleep for a whole afternoon while Brad cared for Jackson. It was the best day. Jacksons new things are rolling over - which I am yet to see - Brad and I came home one afternoon and were both busy in the kitchen while Jackson chose this moment to do his first rolling over - and we both missed it. he has since rolled over a few more times which I also have missed. I have severe mother guilt over this issue. He is still loving Mahind - and has grown especially fond of Bashim (Mahind's youngest child who is 14). Bashim is also fond of Jackie and they spend most afternoons together playing and laughing. When Brad and I pick him up they are always together, as is the whole of Mahind's family who are fans of the t.v show Deal or no Deal - they all sit around debating what the person should do - o.k so they are obsessed with this show but if I'd come from a country where my eldest childs first word was "bomb" I'd be inclined to loose myself in some t.v therapy too. (the former is actually true - lets hope Jackie's first word is ma ma - I am not counting that he already says Da da as I think this a fluke).
Jackson ALWAYS has something to say!
except when "reading" the saturday paper with his Dad!
Cute baby
In other news my Dad - George - has officially started to call Jackson "Gus" - Joy I know you are just thrilled with this peice of news - so I guess our boy will now go by - Gus, Jackson, Jackie and of course Bubba boo. It was inevitable I guess.

Little did ya'll know that everyone here in Harrison already calls Jackson "ANGUS".....I do love it...."way to go, George!"
Jack/Bubba/Angus looks like he's gonna be strong....he'll soon be moving around on the floor...even if it's just "inch-worming"....and ya'll will be BUSIER than you already are!
VERY cute pictures, Christal!
granny
Jack/Bubba/Angus is such a SPITTING IMAGE of his Australian grandfather....I guess that George SHOULD be the one to endorse the "real" name!!
granny again
Whatever. You call that baby whatever you want his name to be, even if George is calling him something different. Just be sure to tell everyone that his name is Jackson. (I do think that Gus is a cute name, though. and is apparently becoming popular again here.)
Oh, when I first glanced at that top picture, I thought to myself, when did you guys see Matt?
NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! When I hear the name Gus all I can think of is the old pervert on Lonesome Dove.
Great pictures and great stories you tell! Thanks for all of them. Love, B/D/P
