5 Months!


I blinked and I have a 5 month old! Time sure flies when you are having fun and we are having a lot of fun watching our boy grow and develop his own wonderful personality. This month has been full of new adventures such as the beginning of baby food which has mostly been positive except for our poor boy getting so constipated but I think we finally have that worked out, it's a leaning process. He really seems to enjoy eating and gets upset if you don't feed him fast enough. Jackson has also perfected rolling from back to tummy but is taking a little break from that at the moment, he now always wants to roll off his tummy so tummy time is becoming complicated. He has really started squealing these days and he loves to laugh, sometimes during dinner he will sit there and laugh the whole time. He has the sweetest personality loves to give out smiles and is generally a pretty happy little guy. He is still on a good schedule of 2-3 naps a day and has even skipped his 4:30 feeding a couple times and slept through the night! We sure are having fun watching our little man grow and we can't wait to see what the next month has in store. Here is Jackson's 5 months picture of likes and dislikes...


Things have finally slowed down a little around here and this is our second free weekend. Jackson and I are still really enjoying Stroller Strides and Jackson and I are making lots of new friends. This week we have a pool play date with some of the other Stroller Strides girls and we are exciting about that, Jackson seems to really enjoy the pool. Here are some other pictures of Jackson from the week...

Flash Back

Last weekend when Adam and I went home we forgot to bring the camera card for our big camera so we had to use our other camera to take pictures over the weekend. When we got home we got out the camera to look at the pictures and found some old pictures that had been forgotten about. Trigger never really got to make it to the blog much since I stopped blogging right around the time we got Trigger so this post is dedicated to when we got Trigger our first baby and a couple of other good pictures we found on that camera...

Adam & I Christmas 2010


Here is one of many horrible pictures Adam & I took in attempt to get one good picture for our Christmas Card, we do this almost every year and it is always a disaster and we never end up using any of the pictures and it ends up with me looking like this...


I wish we had a picture of Adam's thoughts on this process too. Nobody is ever happy but when Adam & I looked back on these pictures we couldn't help but laugh, luckily last year we learned our lesson and had a professional take our pictures


Trigger's First Christmas with us back when he was the only baby in this house


We painted the dreadful colored office, I had forgotten how bad it used to look, I will never understand the previous owners paint choices!


We went on our before we have a baby vacation to Mexico with Emily & Blake, that trip was such a blast but of course we took very few pictures


I don't know what is going on here but I felt it needed to be included, my husband is a character!! 


Adam & Blake headed off on a fishing adventure, Emily & I opted out of the fishing adventure and got massages instead


You can tell it didn't take us very long to make that baby because the very next picture is Adam painting Jackson's room


Here I am probably 20ish weeks pregnant and we got Jack's new furniture


Adam putting together Jack's crib, he is good at that stuff


Pregnant with Jackson, not sure how far along I am here, wish we had been better at documenting the pregnancy


Not sure why Adam decided to document this morning it looks like we were just headed to work but I am glad he did the pictures are good


Well guys that's it, I hope you enjoyed our trip down memory lane as much as we did! This post has been in waiting for a while I started it one night and it never got finished, stuff like that tends to happen when you have someone this cute around...

Yes that is Jackson fast asleep at Stroller Strides with his new fan blowing on him to keep him cool, he is truly living the good life!!

I'm sorry guys but that is all I am giving you of Jackson today since I am also currently working on his 5 months post and can't use up all my good material! I hope you are not too disappointed with a post mostly focused on the dog and us but we like to think we are pretty cool too, especially the dog!



Father's Day, First Tooth and so many more fun adventures!!

We have been crazy busy over the past couple weeks but we are having a lot of fun!! Jackson got his first tooth last Thursday, what a surprise that was when Adam felt in his mouth and there was a tooth!! I'd given up on thinking he was teething and figured we still had a little while. I've been trying to get a picture of his adorable tooth but he just won't show it off long enough but as soon as I do you can bet it will make it here! For now I will share some of the pictures from the last weeks and all the fun we have been having...

We had Uncle Blake over for dinner and he fed me apple sauce, you can tell I'm still not super thrilled with apple sauce so my Mommy has now switched to pears and I like it better!

I went to Honey & Hobby's house and my parents went to the reunion and Honey & Hobby got to babysit me, what a treat for them since I am such an awesome boy!

Honey's highchair is a little big for me, she is going to make me a cushion because my Honey is awesome!

I don't know what Honey & I are looking at but it must have been fascinating

I got to play with my cousin Emily, we have a lot of fun together!

We like to do the same kind of things because we are silly

My cousin Katy

I love my Hobby and his glasses!!

I love my Grammy too, I always have lots of fun at her house!!

On our last trip home we got another picture of the four generations of Hueske men and it is such a wonderful picture and so special to see all these boys together! I thought I would post all the pictures we have so far, the first one makes me laugh!!

There they are, Jackson is still in my belly!! Christmas 2011

I'm so silly with my hands in the air

I'm a sweet little boy!

This past weekend we took Jackson to his first concert, Reckless Kelly at Concerts in the Garden! We go every year, it's at the Botanical Gardens. We bring our own food and drinks and we always have a lot of fun! This year when Blake asked if we wanted to go we were excited to take Jackson until we realized the concert didn't start till 8:15. Jack goes to bed at 7:30 so we were very worried that this was a very bad idea and we were really pushing our luck! Jackson had a pretty rough day so we were very worried but the boy actually did really wonderful, I couldn't have asked for better from the little guy! He was a little scared at first because it was very loud and he didn't like it when the people would talk but he did like the music. We stuck it out till about 9:30 and then headed home to put our sweet boy to bed. It was a lot of fun and it was good for Adam & I to see that every now and then it's ok to go a little off schedule. Here are some pictures from the concert...

Uncle Blake & Jackson

Katie & Mike with Jackson

playing on the ground at the concert

Hanging out with Mom, she wanted to make sure I was ok with the loud music

As you can see Jack had a pretty good time hanging out with everyone, of course everyone thought he was adorable!! 

Jackson and I had a lot of fun preparing for Father's Day, we wanted to make sure that Adam felt extra special because he is awesome!! We made cards for all the Dads, with a little help from Daddy because Mommy couldn't get my fingers painted without him. I think Adam had a really great Day and I'll let the pictures show the chain of events...

Waiting on Daddy to get up so we can wish him a Happy Father's Day!!

Dad got up and I showed him the Fishing Adventure book Mom & I customized for him!!

The card we made for Daddy

I wore this cool shirt that says My Dad is Rad

We took my dog Trigger to the dog park

Dad & I at the dog park

We went swimming at Uncle Blake & Aunt Emily's pool

It was a lot of fun and I got to use my new float!

We had a pretty fun Father's Day it started with breakfast tacos and ended with fried chicken. My Mom always makes my Dad fired chicken so I thought I would carry on the tradition and Adam loves fried chicken! It was my first attempt at fried chicken and I think I have the basics down but next time I have some improvements I want to make. I hope everyone else had a wonderful Father's Day, we sure do wish we could have been with our Fathers because they are wonderful!!

I ate prunes for the first time and boy were they messy but I really loved them even though Mom & Dad were very unsure and they helped me Poop!!

I look like I have a mustache haha

Well folks I think that's it for today, I told you we have been busy and now you can see that from how long this post turned out to be. Tomorrow Jack will be 5 months, hard to believe how much he has grown!! Hope everyone has a wonderful day!
