My little man

Jack and his friend Ruby
Hey! I can sit all by myself now!

Mommy thinks I look much older in this pic!


I can't beleive that my little boy is growing up so quickly! He just got weighed again yesterday and he is 19 lbs 8 oz. Looking back at this time last year, I was just about to find out that I was having a little boy. And now, he is here and he is such a blessing. What a big boy!

Jack's getting ready to crawl. I found out that his nuk is his motivation!

Oh snow




Well I can say that I am a little happy it snowed because that gave Jack a chance to actually play in the snow. He just bounced in my arms and enjoyed his time outside!

My little boy is 7 months!




In just a few months he will be one! Time does go by so fast. The biggest milestone this month so far (and yes he's only been 7 mos for a few days) is rolling over!! He had sporadically rolled over in previous months, but wasn't a fan of it. He started rolling from back to front in his crib. The only problem is that he hasn't figured out how to roll back, which makes for a crabby Jack. This past morning he had a bottle at 3am and then slept on his tummy until he woke up at 7. Usually he let's me lay in bed for around 20 min before I get up but he wanted off his tummy right away this morning. I am hoping that he figures out how to get back to his back!

Another milestone is sitting up! He can do it completely without support now. He does still fall over once in a while so I still keep a cushion around just in case, but it's so fun to see him sitting up!!

Waiting for Spring!


I'm ready to go to California!

I think I have reached my limit for winter. I try not to complain about it because it obviously comes with living in MN, but I long for the days when we can go for a walk in just a light jacket. So with more snow coming this week, I will look at it this way, at least new snow will cover the icky dirty stuff that's here now. Chad, Jack and I also took a little tropical vacation to Underwater World in Mall of America last week. It was really fun! Jack enjoyed looking at all of the fish. We then went to Bubba Gump's for lunch. Thankfully there was barely anyone there because Jack was showing off how high he could make his voice go. It's not just screaming anymore, it's a very high squeal.

6 months old!




Look at my teeth!


Sorry, I have been really busy and I just remembered today that I have a blog! That should tell you how busy we have been! Here are some fun things about Jack at 6 mos:

Weight : 18.5 lbs
Height: 26.5 in
Favorite things to do: JUMP! Let everyone know I am in the room (meaning, I am LOUD!)
New things I can do: Roll over (when I want to, usually just roll to my side and then roll back onto my back) sit up, I also do the motions for crawling, but my belly is currently in the way.
Favorite foods: green beans, pears and applesauce
Least favorite foods: peaches and mangos
Jack has done such an awesome job at therapy that we are all done!! We have to check in next month to make sure he is still making good progress, but his stiff neck is completely gone! We are sooo proud of him. He worked really hard!
