Look who's cooing!

Look who's cooing...



Or not in this case...



Kids always surprise...




And finally, something a little different. Stimpy, somewhat surprisingly, let Jack pet him for a bit

He speaks!

I've come to realize that we'll never have a quiet house ever again because Jack's become quite vocal lately. He'll babble for hours and hours, he's definitetly Jay's son because he just loves to hear himself talk.


This was taken Monday November 22, 2010. He wasn't quite happy but wasn't quite pissed yet (but he was getting there).

I wish I knew what he was thinking. He seems like he's upset and then talks himself out of getting upset, and then gets upset again and then talks himself back down. It's adorable but then again I think everything my kid does is adorable.



Next up....the poop face.

3 Months old!

OMG! I have a 3 month old.

Yes, I realize I'm posting this a few days late but again....I have a 3 month old.

He's adorable and he definitely has my moody personality. I'm also pretty sure he's inherited my sleeping habits. Can babies have insomnia? Whoever said, "I slept like a baby last night," obviously meant they were up every couple hours because they were hungry, needed to pee, or they just wanted their binky back.

I think his smiles say it all.

He also likes sucking on his lower lip. Don't ask me why but I guess it tastes good?

Hell hath no fury like an infant with diaper rash

I guess we've reached our first milestone? We've had our first diaper rash and let me tell you, it was a doozie. Being my son he's taking after me and saying if you're going to do something, then do it big!

After battling diarrhea for three weeks I guess his butt just couldn't take it anymore. It definitely wasn't there Thursday morning, or that we could see, so it must have started appearing Thursday while he was playing at daycare. They had to call me to come get him, poor little guy. You could tell just by looking at him how uncomfortable he was. They didn't realize that he had a tube of cream up there because it was in the back so it got worse all day due to no treatment. I got him home and slathered his butt with as much as it would take and I think just doing that was a relief. We made sure to change his diapers as much as possible and slather his butt with cream each time. Jay was able to find some some treatments online that seemed to help others so we said: "We might as well try it". Our weekend was filled with baking soda baths which help neutralize everything. After his baths we let him air dry for as long as he'd take tummy time. It was his first free balling experience he'd had and I think he enjoyed it but we were worried that he'd leave us a present and we weren't prepared for that just yet. Friday Jay stayed home with him since he couldn't be at daycare. He wasn't able to be held normally so he pretty much was in his daycare hold all day and whiny because he was in pain. Starting Thursday night he woke up all the time because his butt hurt so much. It's gotten better each day because Jay was was so vigilant about the cream and diaper changes all weekend. I really think those baking soda baths cut his healing time in half.

Saturday he was still on the mend but still hurting. Sunday we officially had our happy baby back. He still has a small rash but it's no where near what it was and it should be gone by tonight as long as daycare puts cream on it.

Here is proof that we have our happy baby back. Jay took this Sunday morning while Jack was wearing his Texans shirt. This smile is going to get him out of so much trouble when he gets older.

Happy Halloween!!!

Jack wants everybody to know that he's been going to the gym and getting in shape for the "Ladies". Since he's got a girlfriend or two at daycare he needs to look his best at all times so he's been hitting the weights and drinking a few protein shakes to look good.

He's even examining his chest to make sure it still looks good.

We handed out candy Halloween night and he was the hit of the block.
