5 months

Jackson went swimming for the first time on Tuesday and he loved it. He didn't last too long with all the energy he was exerting, but he had a good time regardless! Now he likes to think he's in the pool again every time he takes a bath and splashes like crazy...half the water ends up on me and on the bathroom floor. He's so close to crawling its scary, all he needs to figure out is what to do with his arms to make himself move forward...he already has the legs all figured out. He still sleeps with one of both arms up at his head. As soon as the arm goes up and he starts rubbing his eyes, we know he'll be asleep in no time. He has a Johnny Jump up that he would rather swing in because he cant figure out how it works...but then when you hold him standing up on your legs he jumps like crazy. He can stand on his own but needs a little support from us because he's still wobbly and doesn't have much balance. Almost six months old and growing way too fast :)
