Jackson with his Safety Gear

Jackson used some of his birthday money and bought a pair of inline skates and safety pads. He was torn between inline skates and a skateboard (my brother would be so proud) but we decided to try the skates first and move to a skateboard when he was a little older. He started off by practicing in the basement of my mom’s house. It didn’t take him long before he was outside on the driveway. Take a look at some of the photos of Jackson skating and the video of him skating down the driveway. After watching the video, I think he needs a pad for his bum!

Jackson has been playing baseball at the North YMCA all summer. His team is called the “Shocker Tigers”. He has really enjoyed playing baseball this summer, although it has become much harder. The previous season Jackson played T-ball. This season is machine pitch. Check out Jackson’s baseball video and his baseball photos.

While waiting for Baby Felix to arrive, Jackson, Nana, and I went to Botanica to see the butterflies. Although it was very hot and humid, Nana thought the walking would be a good way to speed up the birth process. I’m not sure it worked, but we did have fun looking at the butterflies. Check out these photos.

Jackson turns 6 today and we couldn’t be happier. His birthday party is this Saturday afternoon at Pump It Up. We will have cake and ice cream there to help celebrate. If you plan on coming, please let us know. See you there.

Pictures of Jackson’s party are posted in the “Photo Gallery”. Look closely…you may even see Papa Vic cutting loose and going down a slide!
