A Sunny Day and a Half Birthday...

Jackson had a stomach bug last week
and was just pretty pitiful most of the time.
One day, I just had to get OUT
(the SAHMs know what I mean...)
and I thought a little fresh air might do him some good.

While I was in the closet looking for a soft blanket,
I found PawPaws hat.
[PawPaw is Stephen's grandfather who pased away in 2002 ---
Stephen held on to the hat ever since]




AND IT WORKED - look at that cutie smile -
one of the only I got this week.




Update: He is finally back to 'close-to-normal' today.
9 days in all
(3 of stomach bug, 3 days of no appetite/no energy after the bug,
then to top it off he had his 6 month well visit on Friday and got shots, so two more days of fever and grumpies rounded out the week)

At his doctor appt we found out he is 50-50-25 percentiles.
His weight was down, but understandably so after a stomach bug.
Other than that he is growing great.
He eats stage 1 and 2 foods, is rolling over like a champ
and will be sitting up any day now!

A big
Happy 1/2 Birthday
Jackson!
