beach, rice cereal, "crawling"

we have done a lot since my last post...

me with my baby boy

jack loves to chew on his fingers

practicing sitting

jack is starting to be able to sit up on his own for about 30 seconds at a time...sometimes a little longer. i think he is doing pretty good!

going to the beach for the first time 3/22/09
we had so much fun at the beach with our friends. it was chilly, but beautiful. we didn't get a picture of jack's feet in the sand for some reason. he did feel it though. pete probably had more fun than any of us...he LOVES the beach and sleeps all day after because he plays so hard!

feeling the ocean for the first time

naptime (for both jack and pete)

he liked looking around and feeling the cool breeze

yet another photo shoot with house and kelly


eating rice cereal for the first time
3/24/09

he was very curious

hmm...what is this?

not so sure about it at this point

same day...we changed bibs and seats. his vibrachair seemed to be best for us to feed him. he likes to lean over in his bumbo (probably because his thighs are almost too big for it!)


he did a great job and really seemed to like it. he ate over half of the bowl :)

pete was very curious


day two
he did better today...he is really a clean eater. i'm sure he will be a pretty messy eater once he has "real" food

all done!

here he is eating the rice cereal...as you can see pete didn't want to miss one minute of it :) we didn't let pete try any because i am afraid that he will like it and want to eat it everytime we feed jack...which would be annoying!





jack doesn't really crawl yet but he is scooting. he likes to scoot backwards and in circles. here he is trying to crawl!! we are excited that he is trying to crawl, but we are really nervous too! he is going to be into everything pretty soon...yikes! before i took this video he was on his playmat in the center of it and he wiggled and moved sideways and onto the carpet. for some reason the little booger likes to be on the nasty carpet instead of his clean mat and blanket. oh well...germs are good for babies right?







this is jack playing with one of his toys. i just thought it was cute!
