I can't believe that my baby is 16 months! My Jackson Journal is packed away and I haven't been able to write about all the little details for a while. I'm afraid of forgetting the little things, so I wanted to briefly post a few things to help remind myself.
I am really loving this age! Even though Jackson still wants to be held a lot and when he doesn't get what he wants I am really starting to hear about it! I just love seeing his personality come to life, and he is really full of it! He is a lot more confident now with his walking, but confidence doesn't mean stable. He is still a little clumsy and has been taking a lot of falls and getting a lot of bruises, hence the bruise on the side of his head in the pic, Poor guy.
He absolutely loves to be outside. We just couldn't play outside long enough, and he especially loves to be on a "Weee" (AKA swing).
He is starting to be more comfortable being held by other people now that we are around family all the time, and he loves to be in the middle of all the action, but is also independent. We went to a bbq with some friends the other night and he was very interested in what the other kids were doing, he was not clingy to me or Nathan at all, he just went off to play with the other kids and explore the back yard.
He still says "Hi" and "Hi Coco" about 100 times a day, along with a lot of other words and constant jiberish, and whenever I go to the store he yells "Hi" to just about every person he sees. He gets people from across the store to turn around and say "hi" back to him.
There are so many little things I need to write, but am realizing it will become a novel if I do, so I will have to try and remember. I just love my little boy, I can't even stand to be away from him. I think I need to go kiss him right now.

Such great pictures! He's so cute! We had so much getting to see him (and you and Nate) a couple weeks ago.
It sounds like he is at a really fun stage right now! Keep documenting it. I love reading your posts. It makes me so excited for my little boy to arrive!
Molly, you're such a cute mom. This post is very sweet and shows how much you love your little man.
Hope you're having fun in your new place!
Are you renting a place or are you living with Paula?
I agree with you, I love this age!! They are growing up way too fast! Cute pics!!
I love this picture! I know what you mean about not wanting to forget the details. I started a little book for Pax too where I write down random things that I just don't want to forget. It's crazy how fast time goes by. I can't believe Jackson is 16 months old! He's darling!
