Tummy Time

I love watching him on his tummy!

Waking Up

This is what we get to hear when Little Jake wakes up.  Yes, he does sound like an ewok or maybe a gremlin.  LOL.  He squeaks, squawks, growls, groans, and chirps.  Sometimes, it is hard not to laugh at him.  Poor little guy. 

Such a big bed for a little boy

This was our first attempt at Jake sleeping in the crib for naptime.  It didn't last long, and I stayed in there with him the whole time.  We have been trying to place him in the crib,sans the pillows and Bulldog, for the middle afternoon snooze.  He does well, but I sneak in every chance I get to check on him. 

Peaceful Sleep With Daddy

This has to be the sweetest picture in the whole world. Jake and Daddy sound asleep in the chair on Sunday.  We had Papa and Patty here for the weekend, and the night before was a tough night of gas... for the baby not Scott.  It always amazes me when I see a father with their child, but it is even more of an amazement when I see my husband with Jake.  I waited a long time to be a wife and Mama.  It was so very much worth the wait.

The Most Relaxing Bath

We gave Jake a bath the other night.  This was the first time we could use water all over since his belly button and circ was all healed.  Granny and Aunt Tina gave us a frog cloth that stays warm and wet while you wash the baby.  This was pure heaven for Jake!  We washed him down, got his hair, and this is what we were left with in the tub.  He was definately relaxed and sleeping.

Annah's Monkey

Mom, or Annah as the grandkids call her, has this thing about monkeys.  We all tease her that we will dress our children in monkey gear and bring them to her.  Well, this towel was given to us by friends, and well, this one is for you Annah!  Scott and I gave him a bath, and we had to make sure you saw this!

Oops!

I haven't been doing a great job keeping up with the daily picture!  Let's see if I can't fix that tonight.  Everything is going well.  We have a 2 week checkup tomorrow which is good because Jacob has these weird gasping for breath wheezing spells that happen during the day and night.  Scott and I will both be relieved when we hear from the doctor tomorrow.

Jake is sleeping well for the most part.  Scott has been wonderful, and we make a graet tag team.  I am down to 4 pounds less than when we found out I was pregnant with Jake.  I have only 6 more pounds to go before I reach my weight of last summer.  However, no one told me that the tummy thief would steal my tummy for a less desireable jiggly thing!
