Dear Friends and Family.
Today is Kai's 8 month birthday. Time sure does fly. I can't believe he is so close to 1 whole year old. Kai continues to commando crawl around. He loves to pull up on things, enough to sort of go up and down on his bottom, as if he were riding a horse. He plays with the dog by getting the dog's bone or toy and holding it up for Badger to get. He loves his food. He is curious and wants to explore everything in the house. He now has 5 1/2 teeth!
Kai eagerly awaits his newest friend, baby Gardner (parents - Meg and Jon Ray), who will possibly be born today. Baby Gardner is working hard to come into this world and has been trying since 2:10 this morning. Come on baby Gardner, we are all cheering for you and look forward to meeting you!
We are sending you all a warm wintery hug. If you need a dose of snow, come on out for a visit.
Love the Jackson family!

This is a restaurant that can only be accessed by sleigh ride, ski- in or walk in. This day my friend Valery and I decided to walk in. It was full on blizzard and as you can see Kai's cheeks suffered some. They are still recovering 2 weeks later. Poor baby!

One of Kai's favorite things to do now is to take all the CDs off the shelf.

Jupiter Blue Moon strikes again!

Kai loves to do pull-ups.
Hmm. Will he be a climber?


Or perhaps a gymnist? Kai is flipping upside down.
Bath Time!!
The creek in front of our house.
Kai doesn't really like or get the bottle, but he loves his cup and he is getting quite good at drinking out of it.
Badger wondering if we will get even more snow.
Yep! Swimming in Snow!
Yum, sweet potato to decorate my face and match my hat.

The forecast...Snow, snow accumulation, blowing snow and more snow.
