A Walk in the Park

Today we took Jackson to the park for the first time and I'm not sure he's there yet! He really LOVED swinging, but sliding down the slides was not really cup of tea. It was pretty funny watching his face when he was sliding down b/c I honestly don't think he knew what to do with himself. He was all giggles though in the swings though. He really just wanted to watch the other people at the park. I've got a people watcher on my hands! Little Mr. Busy Body! We'll try the park again though I think, but just a little bit at a time though.

As for other news, Jackson is getting over his 2nd cold. Total runny nose and a semi-nasty cough, but other than that he doesn't act sick. I think it mostly has to do with teething. You can see the very tip of his 2nd tooth coming through and I really think he's just miserable b/c of that tooth. Jackson is also starting to hold on to different things and walk around them. He has this little table he can walk a 360 around! He also walks around the coffee table and the couch. It's adorable to see how hard he concentrates to get from place to place. He's also getting extremely FAST at crawling. I'll turn my head for a few seconds and he's gone! He's squeezing in between all our furniture and will try to play games with us while he's crawling. He'll start to crawl and then look behind him for us and then crawl again and then look behind him and then start to crawl again. ADORABLE! He's such an absolute blessing!

Justin and I are both excited b/c this upcoming Friday we leave to go to South Carolina to house shop. I'm excited to see where we'll be living. It looks like we'll have a lot to choose from and we've already made a list of all the houses we want to see! I think I'm also going to try to stop by the Aiken County Public Schools human resources offices and drop off my resume by hand and hopefully ask some questions. I really hope to work in that school district if I can b/c I no longer want to drive an hour to work everyday. I think anyone can understand that! So no it's time to pray for me...that I'll get a job in the place that I want in a job that I want. Right now, they're hiring a library media specialist, but it's an internal hire only :0( That's exactly what I want to do, so I'm hoping they'll consider me. Pray that we'll find a house and that I'll be able to find a job!

Well, I'll post pictures another time of our adventures.
