Jackson the socialite

Jackson is already a local celebrity, a man around town. He's quite a charmer, particularly with the ladies. And he's had a parade of fawning admirers. Here are some of his favorite people.

This is Omlette. Jackson is a limp little noodle in her arms.


















This fella is known as Grumpa (sic). But he's been anything but grumpy around Jackson, so we think he's going to need a new name.

















We call her Sammy. She lives too far away for anyone's good. But boy did Jackson make her smile.





















This is Jackson's grandpa. He wasted no time in asking the little man some probing questions. The little man responded by promptly falling asleep.



















This is Jessie (who won't let us call her aunt). Her boy is a smidge bigger than ours, which makes her fawn over Jackson all the more.

















Yesterday, Jackson met his great grandma, an unbelievable thing, when you think about it. Dell seemed like a young mother again with Jackson in her arms.





















Technically, Beth isn't part of Jackson's family. But she's about as close as can be, as she was Jackson's doula--which means that she helped bring Jackson into the world. We think the world of her, and we think Jackson does, too.














And that's it for today. We just got back from the doctor, and Jackson weighed in at 10lbs 10oz!!! So, in 3 weeks (he's 3 weeks today), he's gained 2 lbs 3oz. That's a credit to him and to Sarah, who apparently has half-and-half flowing through her breasts.
