Lunch with Nana

Jack shows off his new trick for his Nana ~ he can turn a perfectly good cookie (teething biscuit) into a mushy mess in no time flat.

Thank you to Kathleen for coming up to B'ham to hang out with the little bug & taking us all out to lunch.

Little Pumpkin

Jack was (what else?) a "Jack-o-lantern" for Halloween. We dressed him up in his little furry pumpkin suit (which he wasn't very excited about) and walked up the street to the neighborhood pre-trick-or-treat party. He fell asleep in his Daddy's arms after less than 5 minutes, and slept through trick-or-treating (which consisted of knocking on the doors of four of our neighbors, two of whom weren't home). Happy 1st Halloween, Jack!

(Doesn't he remind you of the boy from "The Christmas Story" in his horrible little bunny suit?)

Horses

Jack met Beth & Cassidy's horses the other day. He seemed to think they were pretty interesting. Plus, the babies look really cute all snugged in under our shirts. Just wait until he gets to go for his first ride...I bet he'll think that's pretty exciting!

Pumpkin Patch

Jack went to the pumpkin patch with his Great-Gramma Vera, Gramma, Grandpa, and Auntie Lee last weekend. He liked feeling the pumpkins & of course wanted to get his mouth on all of them (we didn't let him). It was a beautiful day and everyone had lots of fun.





Jack got a Halloween card from Gramma Vera, and he liked it so much he tried to eat the envelope...

Naptime with Daddy

No time to write...I'm going to go join the family nap!

Guess who found his feet?

Jack can't believe that such wonderful toys have been hiding for so long just out of reach. Ever since he discovered them the other day he plays with them at every opportunity. He even managed to get his toes into his mouth a couple of times.

Aunt Alicia came over to visit today, but Jack thought she was boring so he fell sound asleep.

Rice cereal is yummy!

Jack ate his first solid food on Thursday. He is still trying to figure out the mechanics of getting the cereal into his mouth and swallowing without his tongue getting in the way. I think it was a good first attempt though.

Jack's first solid food.
