Baby J is our Little Jumper he jumps at any startling noise and shakes to the cold like an old man. His hands go wild when he is crying and tries to mutilate his face with his long fingernails that he inherited from mom. We have already cut them twice. His belly button fell off today!!He has wild curious hands and cute expressive faces. Pouty lips when he hurts inside from a burp or bum cramp. He loves his bubbles he makes smiley faces all the time. It takes for ever to feed him cause he loves pulling off to feel the lava lamp in his tummy. Every diaper we change has poop in it, and he has peed on us and himself about 10 times. I don't remember Froglegs ever giving us this much trouble!:) I think its because he is so much more healthier than Froglegs, being full term. We know when he is going to pee when he goes silent and no cries are heard during diaper changing. We are learning and loving it. Daddy is gone out of state this week and I am so grateful for my mom being here.
One sad thing though Froglegs got a cold Sunday in Nursery and brought it home then I got it and then J did. We are coughing and sniffling like crazy, but I am healing great from the birth. It almost seems surreal all the blessings we have received. We are Eternally grateful for all of them. If it is because of your prayers- Thankyou.
Three days after J was born he wanted to listen to story time. He seems to be very interested in the story. He is already learning his ABC's. Its awesome to watch him observe his surroundings. He is already focusing on his mobile and trying to move objects with his hands.
Awwwwww!
We decided to try a new tradition in our family to celebrate our German/ European heritage, an October fest. Dad spend a lot of time to perfect this meal, we found it in the Oct. Martha Stewert Mag. Yum Yum. Instead of Beer we drank apple juice.
This is the only watermelon we could harvest this year and it was just in time to celebrate the birth of bambino J.
Yeah I got me some milk!!!
Do my ears hang low?
They are stretching for bed together. Got to get those kinks out of their spines.
Because he was five days from his due date I believe he is very strong and healthy boy. Tummy time isn't so bad. We also started him earlier than we did Froglegs. His neck is so strong and so are his legs and arms. Amazing. My mom thinks he'll be into sports and with his fingers so long maybe into the "tard" or piano. We'll see.
Froglegs and Daddy shining dad's shoes for his work trip today. Another week we'll miss Daddy!!!
