Here we go, Ravens...

Jackson loves his musical Ravens football & you can bet he'll be cheering for the home team tomorrow in the AFC Championship Game.

Wheels, Paint & Smiles

We're enjoying the beautiful South Florida weather and taking advantage of being outside! Jackson's got a big new wagon (thanks Gramsy & Poppy) for him and his new sibling and Mommy & Daddy finally got their bikes put together, so we're enjoying bike rides.

Jackson is also enjoying a new class, Ooey Gooey Messy Fun. Good times.

Pregnant Pals, Family Feasts & Huge Hugs

Here are a few more photos from our trip north. There's the pregnant gals -- Mere & my sister, Val. The Aversa clan at dinner and the Codd family enjoying a holiday get-together. And, of course, a few photos of Jackson being loved.

Chasing Poppy

Parting is such sweet sorrow. We enjoyed a relaxing, laughter-filled, food orgy in Baltimore over Christmas. Poppy and Gramsy and the rest of our family showered us with gifts, attention and love. It was quite an introduction to holiday celebrations for Jackson.

Before we left the airport on our way back to Florida, Jackson squeezed in one last activity with Poppy.

Until our next visit, we miss you all up north and wish you warm days and warmer thoughts...

Christmas 2011

We traveled north to Baltimore for Christmas this year. So far, it's been full of family, gifts, food, trains and chilly air. We're having a blast!

Little Drummer Boy

Jackson found a pair of my old drum sticks the other day. He's putting them to good use, especially listening to holiday tunes.

Slidin'

Jackson showed off some new tricks today -- verbal & physical! He sure had fun.
