Howdy Ya'll! Happy June. As you can see, since I turned one whole year old the weather has warmed up here a lot. I have been enjoying hanging out nakey! I am learning horseback riding. I think I could be a true cowboy someday. Check out my cool cowboy hat in these pics. This month I have learned all sorts of things. I LOVE stairs. I can climb up them really fast and I like to play chase with my mama and papa. They try to get me and I crawl really fast away from them and look back to see if they will get me. I love to climb. I try to climb everything. Some of my favorite things to do now are: collect rocks to give to my dog, "Adger," feed Badger, Poop SUPER HUGE poops, watch the rainbows on my wall that come from a very magical crystal moon hanging in my window, point to things I want, chew with all my new teeth (check out my pearly whites in the last photo), and visit with all my friends that have been visiting from out of state.
I hope you all can visit soon too. Hugs, Kai


Yehaw!!

Here I am helping my Auntie Jess sell some Jewelry at a fair. Me, Mama and Auntie Jess overlooking the Frying Pan Valley

This is my Auntie Jess and Uncle Ash. Ash just got into a bad skateboard crash and cut his face. He told me to be careful If I ever skateboard.
This is my Mama'a old student from Austin. His name is Payson and I hope I can be as good on mountain bikes as he is when I get older.
This picture is for my Nana because she loves my curl.
I went to a wedding in a really cool place and got to wear a big cowboy hat.
I got to visit some of my good friends in Nederland and their dogs liked to give me kisses while I collected and ate pine cones.

As I said, being nakey is great! I really like visiting my friends in Nederland because they always have the most yummy food and the most fun toys.
This is a hike near my house called Hanging Lakes

These are my friends from NC. Grayson and Carter came all the way to see me with their mom and dad who were friends with my mama in college.

Beware of my bite!

It is June and spring has finally arrived. Kai has now fully experienced all the seasons. Jupiter Blue Moon Jackson is now 1 whole year old. It was fun to think back a year ago and to remember the entire labor and birth process. Hard to believe it was only 1 year ago.
This month Kai has learned to hold on to things and walk around them and has learned to say , "Adger" who if you can't guess is Badger- Kai's best friend. He loves to be outside, to play with his rubber ducky in the bath, and to feed himself. The day before his 1st birthday, Kai decided he was a big boy now and that he would now sleep through the night and totally wean himself. No more ninny! It all happened so fast.
For his birthday, Kai had a ladybug picnic. His Nana and Grandaddy Jackson, his Pasha Nouri and so many friends came to celebrate with him. He said he had a lot of fun, but he needed a lot of rest after all the excitement.
We hope this finds you all well. Below are pics from Kai's 12th month of life and a couple video's. Also for this month we have a very special slide show of Kai's first year.
We love you all,
Hannah, Jeff, Kai and Badger.
