Jackson keeps on growing

Jackson keeps on growing. It’s the most amazing thing I’ve ever witnessed. He hardly seems like the little baby we brought home from the hospital a little over three months ago. Now he’s chunky!

He used to have a little pointed chin. Now, he still has his original chin (although it seems less pointed) and has added an emergency backup chin below it. The emergency backup chin is designed to fill in for the regular chin, should the need arise. It has already proven useful. For instance, when the regular chin fails to collect the milk that dribbles out of Jackson’s mouth, the emergency backup chin steps up to take care of the situation.

Jackson really likes it when I sing to him. That is really cool for me because I love singing, and getting rewarded with smiles from my sweet son makes it all the more fun! Some of his favorite songs for Daddy to sing to him are:

• Green Acres theme song


• Gilligan’s Island theme song


• Jackson, the Red-Nosed Reindeer

He’s also been enjoying listening to music with me. Lately, we’ve been listening to Zooropa by U2 and some assorted Johnny Cash. He likes me to hold him and walk around the room in time to the music.
