Blabberings from Jack

I am thoroughly enjoying watch Jack as he is developing and grows. It is truly miraculous to watch as every week it seems as though he is learning something new. Last week he was working hard with his hands. It was fun to watch as he got a real serious face and spend an hour banging his hands together. The end result is that his hands are no longer the tight little fists, but he now enjoys holding toys and playing with them.

This week he discovered his voice and is becoming quite vocal. He sometimes has a hard time getting started as his mouth will open several times and then once something comes out he keeps on going. We enjoyed a long story from Jack in the car home from Longwood - he talked for over a hour!!!! Below you will find some blabberings to Grandma B . . .


and a little laugh!

Don't Worry . . .

. . . you will always be our baby. We have 2 cats and they are slowly adjusting to not being the sole attention receivers in our family. They are very protective of Jack as often times when he cries at night I am greeted by Friday and Dahlia standing guard at the door of his nursery. Yet, they definitely still keep their distance and are easily spooked by Jack's movements or babblings. Sometimes they act out and other times they just are too cute and like us to remind us that they are still our babies!!!!

Below you will find some new places that we have found the cats hanging out. It definitely provided us with some laughs as we discovered them.

Happy Birthday Jack!

Today was also a big celebration as Jack is 3 months old today. Stay tuned I will post his 3 month video in the next couple of days.

Take Me Out to the Ballgame

This has been an adventuresome weekend with action packed fun. Today we took Jack to his first major league baseball game. We traveled down to the game with our neighbor and Jack's BFF - Megan. All was going well and we had a nice lunch at Potbellys. Then all our good planning went down the tube when we arrived at the stadium. We had excellent seats in left field, but it was HOT! Then as we were trying to get Jack situated we discovered that while we were prepared with three bottles for Jack we forgot the working parts (aka the bottle nipple). While I was busy trying to figure out how I could maybe get Jack to sip a bottle - Daddy was resourceful and ended up walking 5 blocks to CVS to get a bottle.

The usher was also a blessing as he allowed us to move our seats under the shaded upper deck as we would have cooked in the sun. Jack got a certificate for his first visit and an Oriole onesie. We enjoyed the wave and all the cheering. IT WAS SOOO MUCHHH FUNNN! Right Megan?!?!

Loving All Things Baby


Here in Cincinnati for the Fourth of July weekend! Jack had his first photo session. We got some beautiful photos and looking forward to getting them back in a few weeks. Other than that I am pretty tired out today with the long drive. Found time to capture a picture of a little one in the front yard.
