Happy First Birthday Jackson!!!

I can't believe Jackson turned 1. I feel like it was only a few months ago that he was born and that we were on our way home from the hospital. Times goes way too fast!

We had a wonderful time with family for Jackson's 1st Birthday Party. Kyle and Mike (Craig's Brothers) and Kyle's girlfriend were able to come over for the weekend from Spokane. Kristi (Craig's Sister) and Sean and the girls came, my brother Doug and his wife Wendy, Grandma Jackson and Steven, and Great Grandma and Grandpa Longmate were able to share his birthday with us. He was a bit overwhelmed with all the people and festivities but I think he really enjoyed the day. After the party , the Sasser side went to the park and hung out since it was such a beautiful day.

Thanks to everyone that came. We sure love spending time with family.

Grandma Sasser - We missed not having you here with us but will celebrate with you in June! We love you!



Here are a few photos from his special day!

Jackson - 11 months old

I can't believe Jackson is 11 months old already. He is such a joy. Everyday he learns something new. He has mastered crawling and chases me around the house all day long. He is very close to walking and loves walking along all the furniture. We love him so much!



Jackson and Grandma Jackson...



Jackson looks like my Dad in this one.. same facial expressions.

Home Sweet Home

We are sure enjoying our time staying at my moms but....The commmute (1-1 1/2 hours one way) is getting old so we are moving down to Renton to be closer to Craig's job.

All is well..Here are some updated pictures...



Jackson loves his Uncle Kyle

Jackson loves playing with his cousins Jaidyn and baby Olivia

Yeah!!! Jackson crawls....

A Big Thank You!!!

We are still getting settled in Seattle but we wanted to take a moment to say THANK YOU to everyone down in Eugene that helped us with the move.

We are still completely overwhelmed with feelings of gratitude. There were over 20 people that came to help pack the truck and clean the house the night before we moved. We would have never made it thru the process with out everyone's help.

We are truly grateful for all of our dear friends in Eugene and for all their love and support.

We will truly miss all of you...

Craig, Steph, and Jackson

8 1/2 Months Old

We are so amazed at how fast Jackson is growing up and learning new things. He surprises us daily.

Jackson's First Christmas

We had a wonderful Christmas despite how much snow there was in Seattle and Craig, Jackson and I were all sick with the horrible cold. We were up at my mom's in Seattle for week. Jackson got very spoiled by Grandma. Plans changed daily due to the weather but we were still able to spend time with our immediate family. Jackson had a blast opening presents and playing with the ribbon.
