Showing some Sibling love :-)











 







Those pictures....

Now that Jack is almost 8 months, I'm finally getting a minute to blog those 7 month pictures I said I would do!











He is quite the inquisitive little guy!

And, of course, I must share some of the sibling LOVE!

A few weeks ago, I dressed Jack up and took some pictures for his Dedication invitation.
 Enjoy :-)

Baby Shower

Backing  up a little......blogging out of order.....
We went to Columbus one Saturday for a baby shower for Nora and BJ. We love Uncle Rick and Jamie's house and we love getting together with everyone, so of course we had a great time!  Nora was absolutely adorable pregnant! They have since had baby Dahlia Aida Jae :-) Here are a few pictures from our visit!

It's been a while...

I took Jack for his 7 month pictures today and as I looked to blog about him being 7 months, I realized I haven't posted a blog since putting on his 6 month information! Needless to say, I just haven't been in the mood to blog.  I have a little catching up to do!
Just in case I don't get to it any time soon, here is Jack's 7 month update:
He is a very sweet little guy who has a definite admiration for his big sister. 
He has moved up to Stage 2 foods and eats 2-3 meals per day.
He rolls everywhere!
He does a great job of sitting up with no support.
He sometimes likes to be on his belly and somehow manages to scoot around - no crawling yet, but I don't think it will be too much longer.
Sleeping through the night is really out of the question I guess.
He is constantly cooing or laughing.
He still only has the bottom two middle teeth.
Plain and simple, he is just getting too big too fast!

Hopefully I will get around to posting some pictures this weekend!

6 months? REALLY?

Jack turned 6 months old on February 26th.  Yes....I said it.....6 months! Talk about time flying! It seems as if he has changed so much over the past month! Here are a few of his newest tricks:

*He is a professional at rolling from his back to his belly, but still refuses to roll back over. However, he is beginning to enjoy being on his belly a little more.
*He has become very interested in  his surroundings. He watches everything and everyone.
*He has really figured out his hands and will grab anything in his reach - including toys, paper, full glasses of water :-)
*He now has his two bottom, front teeth.
*He is refusing to take a bottle from Donna because he only wants to eat baby food.
*He still wakes up and eats throughout the night, which also means that he is really starting to enjoy sleeping in mommy and daddy's bed.
*His favorite person in the world is Zoe.  He loves for mommy to hold him, but at the same time, watches every move his daddy makes.
*He has eaten peas, sweet potatoes, squash, peaches, and pears. Pears are probably his favorite so far.
*He is doing a pretty good job of sitting up on his own once he gets balanced.
*When he is upset, he loves to be rocked and hummed to.
*His favorite toy is his paci, but he also loves his jumper.

Jack by the numbers:
He is 28 1/4 inches long - 98th%
Weighs 18lbs 10oz - 75th%
and Has a big head - 95th%
