Happy Tuesday!

New face - she makes this one for Daddy a lot!

Happy St. Patrick's Day!!

Hello all! We're all feeling better this week in the Jackson household. However, pollen season has officially started as evidenced by my increasingly yellow car and my nightly hacking. We've had a fun week. We went to a friend's house for an Easter Egg Decorating playdate on Saturday and had a great time. Christa was far more interested in eating the eggs than decorating them or posing for pictures, but Mommy had fun decorating the eggs for her. We are doing laundry and packing for our vacation that's coming up this week!! Yay! We are hoping to leave for Rome on Thursday. However, the residency is having a special meeting to specifically discuss this rotation on that day, so hopefully no additional requirements will be added at the last minute. We are headed to Hilton Head with my parents next week and are very ready for a few days at the beach (and the outlet malls - Christa and I are both in need of some summer clothes:)
Christa is so funny right now. She's pretty much decided she's over her swing and bouncer, and spends most of her free time sitting on the floor playing with toys. But I think she's learning that she can't move anywhere, and doesn't have the first clue how to crawl, so she lets her frustration be known. I put her on her hands and knees and moved them for her today. She laughed and laughed, but made no effort to do it herself.
Have a great week! I'll do my best to post during our vacation, but if you don't hear from me for a while, it will be because I don't have computer access or time to download pictures.
