On Campus
Watching Grandpa play with his band at the Blueberry Festival:
Jackson is mad that he has to sit still for this photo :)
Pointing out Michelle's eyes! He loves to do this to everyone!
Fun on the playground
We decided to take a quick trip up to South Bend to see Justin's Dad and Stepmom. We opted to fly there so that we could see how Jackson does on a plane since we have a big trip coming up in Jan/Feb. Unfortunately, Jackson came down with a small cold several days before we were scheduled to go, but he was feeling much better by Thursday, so off we went. He actually did really well during the flights! We held him in our laps, which meant he was acting like a wild man at times trying to climb over us, but he slept for over half the way there and back. That was really nice! And boy did he love flirting with the flight attendants and waving at the other passengers. One of the flight attendants paid us the sweetest compliment. She said that he was such a happy and well-behaved little guy and she couldnt get over how affectionate he was with both of us. She said that she has rarely seen babies so affectionate with their parents. He is quite the snuggle bunny!
During our trip to South Bend, we: hung out with family which was nice and relaxing, went out to a delicious breakfast, took a stroll around Notre Dame and ate lunch on campus, visited the Notre Dame bookstore, went to the Blueberry Festival in Plymouth, IN and watched Justin's Dad play with his band, ate some delicious food at the Blueberry Festival (this was a HUGE event!) and walked around as Jackson waved to anyone and everyone, visited with extended family (Justin's Dads side) during the festival, Justin and his dad went to the Notre Dame vs. Purdue game, had fun playing with the furbabies- Max, Koa, Meer, Muffin, and Minnie, played with Jackson at a local playground, and visited the South Bend Mall...Whew! It was a whirlwind, but we had a great time. The flight back was a breeze except when Jackson was "reading" (aka tearing out pages) of a magazine and snuck a small piece of paper in his mouth which made him gag. Of course this made him throw up on his pants, but it was only a small amount and well contained, so he went the rest of the flight pants-less! HA! Lesson learned-No more magazines for Jackson any time soon! But what a fun trip it was. Enjoy the pictures!
