Jack's a growin'

Jack has officially lived 1/4 of a year now. Doesn't he sound old? Geesh.

He's rolling over all of the time now. In fact, he keep waking up mid-nap/night because he has rolled onto his back and can't get back to his tummy to go back to sleep. He gets the funniest look on his face when you go in to roll him over. He goes to bed at 9 and sleeps until 8 in the morning (with a quick dream feed at 11). Sweet boy goes down for naps and nighttime wonderfully and is so happy during his wake time (I call him "full body happy" because he has the biggest grin and when he gets excited his whole body gets into it). He is a true blessing!

He's been clocking some serious time in the jumperoo. Yep, we packed away the swing and bouncy seats and brought out the jumperoo and exersaucer at 2 1/2 months. He's so advanced. :) (He and Anna-Kate are eerily similar).

So happy!



He's not smiling here...but just to show how little he is still. His precious feet barely reach the floor, but he just jumps away and giggles. Precious.



Not so much a fan of the pool. He did better when I held him up on my chest. He was a trooper though and took a nice nap/rest in his carseat for 1 1/2 hours while we played there today. Yay Jack! Such progress. :)



Aaaaand, in the exersaucer. Chris said that when Jack was crying the other night, while Chris was holding him, he put Jack in the saucer and he started smiling immediately. Hey, whatever works. I'll also say this realization came not a moment too soon. Jack spent an hour or so a day in the saucer at VBS last week (post on that coming tomorrow).



Couldn't you just squeeze him?

Jack is precious!! I love seeing your updates. I am trying to slow time down and enjoy Emily's last few moments of baby-dom but they are flying by! I need to get our excersaucer out, and I am happy to see you put Jack in the pool- I may have to let Emily take a dip. I didn't let Caroline get in til she was 6 months...but really, what was the science behind that reasoning in all the baby books?? AND PLEASE, let me know how to get rid of this silly 2-3 o clock feedings...and then 6 o clock pooping. CIO??
