Always learning and exploring...

Jackson doesn't like the stroller because he hates being confined and not being able to walk on his own.  So, whenever we go places, we let him walk on his own (with the help of his harness so he doesn't run off).  Here are two separate trips to the zoo.  He walked around looking at everything and loved it.  

He LOVES animals.  He loves seeing them (and he loved touching the statues), but he especially loves making animal noises. Whenever we ask him what certain animals say, he makes the sound.  It's so cute!

He loves getting into our cupboards and drawers and pulling everything out.  We're teaching him to clean up, so whenever we see that he's gotten into something, we sing "Clean up, clean up, everybody everywhere.  Clean up, clean up, everybody do their share."  He tries singing it, too, and helps us clean up.  
 
He likes to "color".  He makes a few scribbles every now and then, but I think he mostly just likes pulling all the crayons out!



He's growing so fast and constantly learning new things.  We're always so amazed at what he remembers.  I painted my nails the other day and blew on my fingers for like 3 seconds to help them dry (not that it did anything!).  Now, when he sees my painted nails, he holds up his fingers and blows on them. 

The other day, he got into our Q-tips and put one up to his ear like he was going to clean it.  I have no idea when he saw us cleaning our ears, but he must have because he knew what to do.  This kids amazes me.  :)

Jackson is the cutest little guy. I love these pictures. The picture of the three of you is so good. My computer is being so stupid. Hence the six comments on Jackson's Stats. And it would not let me delete them.
