3 months old!

I'm 3 months old today. I weigh about 13 pounds and have started to giggle and can smile for the camera now.





Jack Playing

Here is a video of Jack playing with his cool new toy from Olivia Goldsmith - he loves it! It plays 8 songs and each side of the cube is a different musical instrument. He giggled for the first time playing with it. Jay likes to "act out" the various instruments for Jack. Next time you see Jay, ask him for his rendition of the harp. It is quite beautiful...

Learning to sit...


So mom got me this chair this week. It's called the BeBe Pod. I am supposed to sit in it to strengthen my neck and shoulders and back. I am pretty good at it so far although I only like to do it for a few minutes at a time. I have to say - THIS SURE BEATS TUMMY TIME! Mom says I still have to do tummy time (which sucks by the way - have I mentioned that?) but this will help me too. I really want to learn how to sit because this is there super cute girl named Ryan in my music class and she sits. I like to stare at her all through class and I just think that if I could sit we would totally have more in common, you know? So the key takeaway is that my new red bebepod chair totally rocks and is going to help me find true love.


Growing!


I am really growing now - check me out! I am officially 12 weeks old today. Some would say that makes me 3 months old but I am holding out until the 30th before I declare myself that old. I mean 3 months old is like kind of a big deal.

Late Christmas Pics...











Here are some pics from Christmas time that my mom forgot to post. She looks a bit dead behind the eyes in some of these shots so please excuse her. Really it is my fault because I keep her up all night. Anyway, Christmas was great - I got everything I didn't know I wanted. Mom wrapped all of my gifts so that she could open them all on our fake Christmas (12/20). It was all a bit ridiculous so I cried thru most of it. December 25th marked my first official "Happy Birthday Jesus" celebration in Florida. I got more presents than anyone else which was cool.

Florida!







On December 22, 2008 Jack had his first flight (on Southwest of course!) to Ft. Myers to visit Grams, Opa, Uncle Drew and Auntie Lo down in Naples for Christmas. Jay left on Jan 1st but Vanessa and Jack stayed for 2 full weeks. We all had an amazing trip. Jack had plenty of babysitters and so Jay and V were able to go to the movies (twice!) and to the beach almost every day. Jack got really good at taking his bottle from Grams and can easily suck back 4 oz now. Jack went for lots of walks outside in the wonderful weather and started to establish some sleep patterns while we were down there (note: this does NOT mean "sleeping thru the night...) Here are some pics from the trip.
