Last Post from the Townhouse!

Hi there! This will be my last post from the townhouse! Next time I'll have pictures of me in my new house!

We are finishing packing the last boxes. I have been a big helper. I love to lift big, empty boxes. I also like to take things out of boxes that Mom's packed, but hasn't taped, yet.

Toward the end of last week I started feeling under the weather. Turns out I got to experience croup for the first time. Dad says I sounded like a seal with my cough. I've had some ups and downs with this whole croup thing, but I think I am getting better.

Here's my new couch from Nana and Papa. It unfolds like a sofa bed! It will be perfect on the hardwood floors in the new family room when I am watching the "Boob Tube" - that's what Grandma Mac calls the TV. I am already getting good use out of it, especially since I have been taking it easy lately. Thank you SO much Nana and Papa!

Well, it's off to bed for some much-needed rest. We may not post this weekend due to the move, but we'll keep in touch and post again soon.

Love,

Jackson

Way to go Bears!

Way to go Bears! I cheered them on with my shiner and all. Nana and Papa took such good care of me this weekend while Mom and Dad were in Boston. Within two hours of Mom's watch, I get a nasty shiner. Mom says boys will be boys. Nana says she's glad it didn't happen on her watch.

This morning Mom let me play with toilet paper (clean) while she was packing for the move. I had so much fun tearing it up and making a mess.
I think she felt bad because of my owie.

So we all know this blog is supposed to be all about me, but I have to tell you about my Uncle Mike's wedding that Mom and Dad went to. I wasn't able to go, which was fine because I had a blast with my Nana and Papa, but how can I not share about my uncle's wedding at Fenway Park?

Mom and Dad said it was amazing - as amazing as my new Aunt Pam, who I can't wait to meet! Here are some pictures of the big event:

This was the view of Boston from Mom and Dad's beautiful hotel room.

The day of the wedding, Mom and Dad went for a walk with Grandma Mac, Aunt Kate, Aunt Kady, and Uncle Bill. They went to where Cheers was filmed. I guess it was a hit TV show from before I was born. Dad just keeps on saying that nobody knew his name.

Here's Mom and Dad before the ceremony at Fenway! They said there was a Green Monster in the background, but I assured Mom and Dad that there is no such thing as monsters.

This is my Grandma, Aunt Kady, Uncle Bill, Dad, Uncle Mike (the groom!), and Uncle Pete.

Here's Grandma with her two sisters, Aunt Kate and Aunt Annie.

After it was official, their names were displayed on the scoreboard all night!

This is a video of the happy couple entering the reception.

Here the couple share a picture with the McNamara siblings.

Looked like a very special wedding. Congratulations Uncle Mike and Aunt Pam!

A special thanks to my Nana and Papa for babysitting me. We went to the park, the zoo, on walks, and just played and played! I had a wonderful time and miss you already.

Thank you to Uncle Bill, too. I love my new FBI bear - he makes me feel so safe. I also can't wait to get jeans that don't look like floods on me. Thank you!

I hope everyone has a wonderful week!

Love,

Jackson

Jackson Wants to Tell You Something

Happy Saturday! Sorry it has been awhile. I have been anxiously waiting to tell you something...

So we are all very excited! Lots of excitement going on in our house lately. Last weekend Mom and Dad bought a new washer and dryer for the new house. We grabbed lunch at Steak n Shake. Well, we tried. I was ready for my nap, so we got our lunch to go. I did wear my Steak n Shake hat for a quick picture, though.

We have been enjoying the beautiful weather. Dad is really great about taking me out to parks in the mornings so Mom can pack.

This morning, though, Dad took me to the zoo! We know the layout like the back of our hands now.

Thanks, Dad, for the fun morning! Then we grilled burgers for lunch and watched the UCONN game. You know what? UCONN did great! Until the very end... but up to that point, we really enjoyed watching! After my nap we went to the park as a family. I want to do everything by myself now, but I just need to hold someone's hand when I walk down stairs. The park has so many places to climb and I even go down the slide all by myself.

Next weekend, Uncle Mike is getting MARRIED! At Fenway Park! Mom and Dad are flying to Boston and Nana and Papa are coming to stay with me. I can't wait to have a fun weekend with my Nana and Papa!

I hope you are having a wonderful weekend. I got a case of the giggles at dinner the other night, so I thought I would leave you with a smile.

Love,

Jackson
