What makes Jack who he is and what goes on day-to-day
The happiness continues
For as unhappy as Jack generally seemed to be during the first few weeks, he’s definitely making up for it now. Aunty Shelly sent me this essage while I was at work of how much fun he was having with her aunty. Continue reading “The happiness continues”
More smiles
Jack has hit a turning point in the past week. Gone is the fussiness: smiles and cooing are very much in. Continue reading “More smiles”
Here come the smiles
Jack has been breaking out the smiles for about a week now but it wasn’t until today that he was kind enough to let me capture them on camera.
While looking at the pictures, Martina seems to think that he looks exactly like me. I don’t really see it myself, but then it’s hard to see yourself in someone else I think. What do you think? Either way, he’s pretty cute: that much I can agree on. Continue reading “Here come the smiles”
Jack’s 1-month picture
Jack is now a whole month old. Life has been so crazy since his birth that for the most part it just seems like he should be much older.
He’s definitely growing quickly though and faster than average. He could lift his own head from birth, hold it up from about 3 weeks and has been smiling for the past week when he sees us. Continue reading “Jack’s 1-month picture”
Smiling with Daddy
While rocking Jack to sleep tonight, he started making a little delirious, laughing sound so I went over to the mirror to see what was going on to find this little man smiling back at me. Er-der-a-ber! Continue reading “Smiling with Daddy”
Weeks 2 & 3
Time for another photo round-up. Caring for two children is quite time-consuming so I haven’t been able to post as much content here as I’d like, hence these sporadic collections of photos. Continue reading “Weeks 2 & 3”
Snoring and wheezing [VIDEO]
Jack makes the weirdest sounds when he sleeps. Here’s just a snippet of what we hear during the night. Continue reading “Snoring and wheezing [VIDEO]”
The brainwashing has begun
As Ellie also experienced, Jack is being brainwashed into the Order of the Gator. Continue reading “The brainwashing has begun”
Future Hallowe’en Ideas
Sadly for Jack, we’ve already got myriad great ideas for how to dress him up at Hallowe’en. We never usually participate, but these are too good to pass up:
- Jack O’ Lantern
- Jackfruit
- Jackpot
- Jack of all trades
- Jackhammer
- Jackson 5
- Jackknife
- Union Jack
- Jack and the Beanstalk
- Jacked up
- Jack in the box
- Jack and Jill
- Jackrabbit
- Hijack
- Lo-jack
- Jack Black
- Jack White
- Jack Frost
- Jack Russell
- Jack the lad
- Jack the Ripper
- Jackass
I doubt we’ll be able to contain ourselves and only do one of these each year, so stand by because there will probably be a bunch of these done while he’s still young enough to let us do whatever we want without him complaining.
