What Did We Do Yesterday?

First, we went to see Santa. As you can see, he was not a huge fan. We keep talking about Santa in line and watched him and I thought he would pull it off - but nope, he wasn't having any of that. Once we got home and he would look at the picture he would say Santa and ho ho ho.



Then we took a walk before the weather turned cold. We have this problem of Jackson wanting to stand up in the stroller. It is a constant battle. Yesterday we heard the trash truck and Jackson loves BIG TRUCKS so we decided to follow it. For a full 30 minutes he sat in the stroller and watched the truck. He must have said big truck about 100 times. We were far enough behind that I was still able to get in a good walk while Jackson was entertained.



Once the trash truck was gone, it was back to this battle... He will pop his little head up with the biggest smile like he knows how cute he his. Laine and I have to turn our heads so we don't smile and then we have to tell him to "sit down!"



Once that battle was over Jackson decided he wanted to walk the rest of the way. He kept saying "shoes, shoes" since I didn't put any on him. I didn't think he'd be walking. I just love having the time to slow down and not be in such a hurry. Love those kinds of days!




Lastly, we celebrated the birthday of the best father and husband in the entire world. We love you so much!!!!! We celebrated with a pizza from Pizza Hut! Life is exciting these days, huh? Actually that's about all we could handle. Laine's been working a lot and been sick too. We've all had pretty bad colds, pink eye (Jackson and Laine), and a stomach bug (Jackson and Dana.) Does this passing illnesses back and forth ever end?
