he's a sitter

my baby is sitting :( he's been working on it the past couple weeks and this week he started sitting up straighter. he's still really wobbly but he loves his new view! 19 weeks today.

yummy

that's what my little buddy boy thought of rice cereal last night. he opened up and slurped it down. i wonder how long until the girls are bored with feeding him...i'm sure baby jack-jack is going to be tired of being gagged with the spoon much quicker!

i must have blinked

because my son in 4 months today. jack is the sweetest, most content baby. he put himself to sleep and is still sleeping well, at least 7 hours straight at night. he loves his crib and when he wakes up i can hear him talking to his stuffed bear or the baby he sees in the mirror. he loves to play under his playmat and is now enjoying the jumparoo. he grasps toys better and brings everything straight to his mouth. his favorite blanket is the taggie blankie, he enjoys chewing on it. he rolls and really wants to sit. he loves hanging out in the bumbo seat while i cook and when we eat.

i'm working on reloading my programs after a pc disaster this week so i thought i would share a video clip of my boy.

the race

this year the kids joined in! first we walked the one mile. lily walked the entire thing while ava and jack relaxed and enjoyed the view. after that i ran the 5k. i'm pretty sure i ran it quicker than last year! woohoo!






look who we ran into! what 40,000 people participating and we walk in right behind them.

heirloom

i found this crib a great pop pop's house. i loved it and thought is would be a interesting baby prop. this was allyn's crib. so from the moment i found out baby jack-jack was coming i had this vision in my head.

say it ain't so

baby jack-jack is only 15 weeks...and the teeth are coming. i believe the girls were over six months before they cut a tooth. i noticed this week while i was ticking my giggly boy, you can see the white swelling of teeth all the way to the top of his gums and markings on top where they are going to cut! ouch!

good morning

this is what i wake up to everyday... he's such a good boy. i hear him in the monitor. he usually works on his tummy time doing push ups, but now he's starting to play. he loves to look at himself in the mirror and grab at his toys. i just put his new rainforest toy in today. he loves it.
