Happy 1st Birthday

We had a blast at Isabella's first birthday party. She really enjoyed the cake!

At one year, she is able to move around on the floor (her form of crawling) and is beginning to do sign language such as "please" and "more." What an awesome feeling to be a parent. We thank God for this opportunity and for His many blessings on us.

My First Christmas

Isabella had a great first Christmas...

First Halloween

We visited friends in Ellijay, GA and took a trip to the pumpkin patch. Isabella was a "peanut" for Halloween. It was so much fun.

My First Words

At seven months, Isabella began saying Da Da. A few weeks later she began saying Ma Ma. It absolutely makes my heart melt! She is such a sweet girl. This is one of the latest pictures we have of her (at 6 1/2 months.) We are so excited to enter this fall season with our precious little girl. So many experiences await us in the upcoming months.

Happy Father's Day

A Poem Izzie wrote to Daddy...

You were there from the beginning, right from the very start,
And stood by Mommy's side, so close to my heart.
We celebrated my special day, so early in the morn,
As you took many photos, of the day that I was born.
I have a special Daddy, who loves me very much,
We read and sing together, you add a silly touch.
Thanks for making time, to teach me from God's Word,
You'll never know how much you're loved,
my words remain unheard.
My life is just beginning, but I can say with a grin,
I'll forever be proud, of my name Isabella Brynn.

December 2006

Merry Christmas to all of our friends & family! What an awesome time of year to celebrate the birth of Jesus. We count our blessing this season and thank God for His goodness. The holidays were very special this year & were filled with gracious gifts and baby showers. What amazing friends, family & church family we have! This special season has increased our anticipation and joy for the little bundle that will soon join the Jackson household. Please be in prayer for us around Jan. 17th, 2007.

A Star is Born!!!

This week was an exciting one for Baby & Mommy. Several weeks ago, the Marketing department came to my office at work. They needed a pregnant woman to cast in a commercial for Tanner Health System. I agreed to it as long as no speaking parts would be required. On Wednesday morning I met them at the Villa Rica facility. I NEVER knew that a 30 second commercial could take so long to film. It lasted all day. What they did not express to me up front was that I would be the star of the film...WAY OUT OF MY COMFORT ZONE!!!! They did a LIVE ULTRASOUND of Baby Jackson. On camera they made it seem that I was having twins but it was really just a split screen of our little one. Baby Jackson...a STAR before birth!!! They say that the commercial should go live around January 1, 2007. It will appear throughout the Tanner facilities, GPTV, local cable channels, Lifetime & possibly others. What fun it was to document this pregnancy in such a way! I hope to get copies of the still photos they took as well as a copy of the commercial for our memory book. If so, I'll be glad to share them.

I've also posted a few recent pictures that were taken last week. Only 9 weeks to go before our little one arrives!!!!

Construction Begins!

Bryan & I decided a while back to add on to the house. The goal is for all work to be completed by Thanksgiving. All nursery decor has been put on hold until this task is completed.

We've been attending prenatal classes over the past few weeks. How fun it is to think that we are going to be parents. I think Bryan truly enjoys the classes as much as I do. God has brought us to a wonderful place in our lives.

Baby Jackson is still very active. Although I'm starting my third trimester, my belly is just starting to appear pregnant. It's so funny to watch when it shifts from one side to the other. Autumn is such a beautiful time of year. God is blossoming a new chapter in our lives - one where we must FULLY TRUST IN HIM.

Have a Happy "Harvest" Halloween Everyone!
Love,
The Jacksons

September 2006

Happy Grandparent's Day!!!
Sunday, September 10, 2006

We were able to honor our parents for the first time on Grandparent's Day. It was very special for us to send them a special card with a poem and photo of the baby.


Earlier this week, Bryan was able to feel the baby kick for the first time. What an awesome experience! A little life truly dwells within my bulging belly. Earlier this week Bryan surprised me with a set of tiny "Air Jordan" booties for the baby...they are so cute!

On Monday, September 11th, a new addition "Paul" was born into our family. Bryan's sister, Karen, delivered in New Jersey...can't wait to meet him!

As of Thursday, September 21st Audrey has gained a total of 5 pounds. It's hard to tell that she is 6 months pregnant but the doctors say that mom & baby are doing great.

August 2006

This has been an eventful month for our family. Audrey celebrated her 28th birthday earlier this month & today we were able to view our 19 week ultrasound. It is so amazing how God has blessed our family. Baby Jackson has beautiful features and is already God's masterpiece. Audrey has only gained 1 pound so far but feels like she's gained at ton. What was really cool was to have grandparents and Bryan's sister there to attend the doctor's visit. Our little one was trying to suck his/her thumb and we were tickled to watch it jump with each little hiccup. :D
What a Mighty God We Serve!!!
BOY OR GIRL???? What a special surprise!!!

As a special gift to our family members, we got decorated "onesie" cookies for those who were able to attend our doctor's appointment. They were iced in yellow or green & each were tagged with the following note attached...



Precious one,
So Small,So Sweet.
Dancing in on angel feet
Straight from
Heaven's brightest star
What a miracle you are!
