Today is Jamison's first birthday! Mommy took the day off and we got a few things done for his big party this weekend. Then we went to the park and J had fun in the baby swing. Later on Steve, Roxanne, and Liz came over and we have burgers, beans, and potato salad. I had also made cupcakes and Jamison loved his cupcake. We got a video, however I will need to post that later.
Mommy and Daddy can't believe it has been a year since his birth...it has been one of the most amazing years of my life. We couldn't imagine our life without Jamison! Happy First Birthday Jamison!

We are getting super excited for his first birthday which is only a couple weeks away. We are also hoping that our master bath remodel is done before then since my family will be coming! We had some pipes crack underneath our masterbath back in June and we have decided to remodel the masterbath since the floor will already be tore out. It is a huge project and we can't wait to have our masterbath back! Well I hope everyone has a great week!

My 30th birthday
I realize it has been awhile since I have posted something so now is better than ever. I had my 30th b-day yesterday and it was absolutely amazing. In the morning Andy made me breakfast and had the table set with beautiful flowers and then I opened up a coach purse. That day I got a manicure and pedicure and then Jamison and I went swimming at Grandma Roxanne's house with Aunt Liz and Great Grandma Thelma. Later that night we went to El Fredo's with the whole fam and topped the night off with cold stone creamery cupcakes. The video of Jamison is him eating some vanilla cake. We wanted to do a trial run for his first birthday and I thought that my birthday would be a great time for him to try it! He went nuts and loved the cake. He shoveled all of it into his mouth! It was super cute! Here are pics from my b-day http://www.flickr.com/photos/thegouldfam/sets/72157624430279053/show/
Since it has been awhile I will update you. In June Jamison had to go the ER because his daycare lady gave him some eggs and we found out that he had an allergy just like Andy. That is why we wanted to try the cake first before his first birthday cuz I didn't want him to have an allergic reaction on his first birthday.
Also another development is that Jamison is walking! He started walking at 10 months and now walks 90% of the time. It is so cute because when he wants to quit walking he just lands on his bottom!
Jamison's eating schedule now is that he has about 3 bottles of formula one in the morning, afternoon, and before he goes to bed at night. He also eats meals about 3-4 times a day. He will eat anything and is not picky. His fave foods are cheddar cheese rice cakes, cottage cheese, cheese, chicken, sausage, pepperoni, blueberries, vanilla cake to name a few. As long as there is food in front of him he will eat it!
Jamison also sleeps through the night. He goes to bed around 8pm and wakes up at about 6:30-7am. He doesn't get fussy very often but right now he is teething so he hasn't been feeling the best. He has his bottom teeth in and is getting his top teeth in right now.
We are getting super excited for his first birthday and it is just around the corner. It is hard to believe that it has been a year. It has been one of the most amazing years of my life and I am so happy to have Jamison in our lives. It is just the greatest thing to see life through a child's eyes. Well I will definitely be posting his first birthday pics soon.

Jamison eating a lime!
Here is a video of Jamison eating a lime. It is super cute! We couldn't help ourselves he is just trying so many new things so we thought we would broaden his horizons. He is not eating chopped up food from our plates. Feeding is getting so much easier!
Jamison also has 2 teeth coming in on the bottom. He is still trying to stand on his own but not walking yet. He has also said DaDa. I am trying to teach him mama but it hasn't worked yet. Well I just thought I would post something super quick! Have a good week!

9 months old!
I can't believe that Jamison is 9 months! He has been the most amazing thing in Andy and I's lives and we couldn't imagine life without him.
We had our first mother's day together and Andy, Liz, Roxanne, and I ran the Race for the Cure 5k. It was a great time. After that we went to Thelma's and had a brunch. It was the best mother's day ever.
In other news Jamison is almost standing on his own! He stands by himself for a few seconds at a time and is walking behind and around things. He is starting to open and shut doors and he said Dada for the first time! He is such a happy baby! He is also starting to eat more solid foods like rice cakes and graduates puffs and yogurt melts. He still has a lot of formula (about 4 bottles a day) but he also eats 3 meals a day. He loves to get into everything including our pantry and cabinets.
We have also had another recent change. Andy has accepted a new job with Mid American Energy as a computer programmer and he is looking forward to the new opportunity.
If you want to look at some more pics of mother's day, our minneapolis trip that we took in April to see Dana, Aaron, and Kaden, and recent pics here is the link http://www.flickr.com/photos/thegouldfam/sets/72157624086431630/show/with/4613185775/.

8 months old!
Today Jamison is eight months old! I can't believe we have had him for 8 months already. He is growing so quickly. Sometimes when I rock him I just want time to stop so he can always by my baby.
Last week was a rough week. Jamison had an upper respiratory infection and ear infection. I took off work on Thursday so I could take him to the doctor and so he wouldn't have to go to daycare. Andy stayed home with him on Friday. He will go back to daycare tomorrow.
Jamison is now starting to be able to sit down after standing! Before he would just fall down, but now he is intentionally sitting down when he doesn't want to stand anymore.
By the way the pic is from Easter Sunday. Well better go the little guy just woke up from a nap.

He is also eating a lot more. He has tried cherries, blueberries, peaches, peas, squash, ground turkey, sweet potato, and bananas to name a few.
We also needed to do another sweat test from our last follow up appt with Dr. Wallace, a pediatric pulmonologist. He suggested we do another one because Jamison was borderline on his first test. We did the sweat test last Friday. Jamison did awesome and didn't even cry. All the nurses were surprised that we were done with the test cause they usually hear kids screaming blood murder, but Jamison was a trooper. If you remember from one of my previous entries we did a sweat test to check for Cystic Fibrosis. You have 2 electrodes and current will go through the electrodes to make him sweat. This last test was negative which means that he definitely doesn't have Cystic Fibrosis, but he does carry the gene. We were so relieved.
While we were up in Sioux Falls getting the test done we went the the Kids Superstore and bought a jogging stroller. We absolutely love it! We have been running with it almost every day since we bought it. Jamison likes it too. He is pretty chill in it and usually falls asleep. Andy and I are training for the Susan G Kommen Race for the Cure on Mother's Day. We are super excited for the race! We will let you know how it goes!
Andy just ran a 5k and placed 3rd in his age group and Roxanne also ran the race and got 2nd in her age group. Well it is getting late and Jamison is in bed so I am ready for bed also.
