More fun time in Ventura

Swimming with Grandpa


Elle also had fun spending time with Aunt Jacklyn as you can see! The zoo was fun, but the toys at Grandma's house made the weekend a hit!


Ellie loves her bedtime stories
Just too cute for words!

Saturday 8/23/08 marks Elizabeth's first trip up stairs at Grammie T's house- the fun begins now:)

Santa Barbara Zoo

Of course Elizabeth had an amazing time at the zoo! Every animal was another "Jackson," and her squealing scared a few of the animals (as well as some of the more timid kids)../

No, baby, you are supposed to feed the giraffe the food - not eat it!

First Word?

In the long-lived tradition of teaching "mama" and "dada", we worked with Elizabeth and waited to see which would be her first word. She has been babbling for a long time, but finally came out with a real word! Who does she love the most? Check the video below to find out:)

Hanging out at home

Although it always seems like we are on the go and having great adventures, we do like to hang out at home and enjoy the weekend...

Daddy is so excited that Elizabeth seems to love baseball as much as he does! Doesn't she look cute it her outfit from Alaska (it has a picture of a fish on it and says "This one's a keeper!").

Almost walking

Any day now, she is going to race away! Just yesterday, she stood by herself for a few moments like it was no big deal (Daddy and Mommy were the ones squealing this time:)). Here is a clip of how she is improving using the walker.

All smiles

Elizabeth now likes to show off her top teeth. Look at that cute smile!


We also had fun riding the carousel at Fashion Island with Aunt Jacklyn.

Here is another short video clip. Here we are flying by as Grammie T watches happily
