Since I can't post pictures, I'll update a little about Jackson and his new words!
His current words are,
Mama
Dada
dog
ball
car
bye bye
go (which if you say "Ready," he'll say, "Go!" Too cute.)
and no.
"No" sounds more like "Mo" though. The kid is strong-willed and has a huge obsession with climbing, especially ONTO the table. He will walk around shaking his head saying, "Mo, Mo, Mo."
"Go" is his favorite word, he says it all day long. It fits him perfectly because he's always on the go while saying it.

Moving!
So much going on, I've had little time to post.
We're moving! Actually, I guess we've moved. I've been hesitant to write it, making sure everything went smoothly, but finally our house has closed! We didn't even have to put it on the market, so lucky. Escrow is finally closed and we're moving on. Chico here we come!
Hopefully I'll get our laptop unpacked soon and get some pictures up. Jackson was such a cute helper. Ha ha. Actually moving with a toddler is pretty high on the list of impossible things to do.

Just a reminder to myself..

...that someday I want to try these Go Anywhere Wine Glasses out!
I've gotten to use them with Mark and Janet at a Silo's/General Store Wednesday happy hour and they were so cool. And recyclable!

Goals of 2010
2010 is going to be OUR year.
2008 was great (getting pregnant & Jackson was born), but 2009 was a wee-bit tough, let me tell you,
Although we got to celebrate all of the wonderness a new baby brings in 2008, Jackson was one tough cookie. I'm sure you can't tell, because who posts pictures of their screaming baby, you know? Every day he gets older, he gets a little bit easier. A year of wonderment, learning, and cuter everyday. 2010 will be his year.
2008, Donnie finished the Fire Academy and became a permanent Engineer Firefighter. Such hard work and a huge accomplishment on his part. 2009, he had to finish a ton of different classes, which kept him at work a lot, to be eligible for Captain. He is now ready and excited for his Captain's interview. 2010 will be his year.
2008, we all had secure jobs. 2009, because of budget cuts I got my pink slip and my job was up in the air. We really didn't know for months if I would have one, which was a huge amount of stress on our shoulders. Luckily, I did get hired for the school year that I will finish up this June. Yet this March 2010, I will get a pink slip AGAIN before the school year ends. But, this year at least we are prepared. We've already decided I won't be returning to teach another school year. I get to teach my own child at home and pursue other goals! Who knew after all my hard work and schooling to become a teacher, the ultimate goal would be to be able to stay at home. 2010 will be my year.
My goals/wishes for 2010, posted for all to see in hopes of that extra push to make SURE I accomplish them.
1. Finish out the school year strong.
2. Learn and practice enough to be accepted into Prepro with my measly d60.
3. Save up by Christmas for a Canon 5D Mark II as a reward to myself for getting into Prepro.
