Happy Holidays

Here I am with my stocking, which was filled with all sorts of objects for chewing. I hope you were as lucky as I was!

My caterpillar

By the way, this is my favourite thing.

More exercise and a product placement

Saturday I went for my very first hike, on Spencer Island, just north of Everett. Here is a picture of Dad getting ready for the hike with his two favourite things; me, and a grande-light ice-no whip mocha.

The Cool Kids

Last weekend, I got to hang out with my buddy Wyatt. He's almost six months old, so I feel pretty grown up when I get to play with him. He teaches me about holding my head up without wobbling, and how to defend myself when someone tries to eat my ear. I'd give him a call if you're having any trouble with either!

I have a great sense of humour

Did I mention that I've started to laugh? Every night after my bath, when mom is getting me into my pyjamas, I giggle for a few minutes. I also laugh at other times during the day when mom or dad changes my clothes or my diaper. Being naked is hilarious!

Big Jack, Little Jack and Wee Jack

Today is my Great Grandfather Jack's birthday! He is Big Jack. If you see him, please tell him happy birthdy from me, Little Jack. In case you forgot what he looks like, here are some pictures of me (Little Jack) with Great Grampa (Big Jack). Also pictured is me (Little Jack) with Wee Jack, who is a teddy bear Great Grampa (Big Jack) gave me. Are you following? Let me know if you have any questions.

Hanging with the Mannings

Here are some pictures of me and mom and dad, just chillin' on Sunday morning. First, I told dad a fascinating story. Then I gave mom a few cuddles. All in all, a lovely morning.

Exercise is important

Today, Mom and I did yoga. Here I am in relaxation pose.

The Two Amazing Things I Did Today

First, Mom put me down on my tummy to play, and when she turned her back to check email, I rolled over onto my back! I had a lot of fun watching her trying to encourage me to do it again, but a magician never reveals his tricks. She'll just have to wait until the next time her back is turned.

Second (this is a big one, hold onto your hat), I was feeling a bit sleepy, so Mom put me in my crib, awake AND during the day mind you, and I fell asleep without a peep. I then proceeded to nap for TWO hours. Now, I could tell Mom was impressed with the rolling over, but man was she excited about the nap! Must remember to limit my astounding feats to once a day...

Why yes...

I am feeling better. Thanks for asking!

I feel blue

Today I'm feeling kind of sad and sleepy. Mom says everyone has days like this, and that tomorrow I will be back to my old happy self...
