The Many Faces of Jack

Since I know many of you are facing the stress of the Holidays I figured I should offer up doses of Jack to help keep you in the spirit. We've been very busy with Holiday parties, Gymboree, and have hair (he needs a trim already) and doctor's appointments (9 month check up with our new pediatriction) the rest of this week. I'm also just now starting his actual scrapbook so any free time is going to that. Life will be so much better when I get back on my ADD meds a the end of January...I'll be able to focus more. Soooo....in other words postings might be sparse, but you'll see us soon enough :)

Jack and I were all bundled up on Saturday when the whole family went to a make up Gymboree class. We had a make up class from his RSV days, it was cold and a great way to get out with Dad, and I went along to catch a whole class on video so Jack can see later how much fun he had every week playing with his friends and Gymbo. Don't you love his hat and scarf that Nick bought him. The mittens aren't his favorite.

Here we are AFTER his bedtime bottle when he is normally eyes rolling back in his head...not this night...he was ready to play. Don't mind the "cage" in the picture...he really doesn't mind it.

Here is where the title of the entry came from...Jack is such a happy, smiley baby now. It's hard to imagine that this was the boy that I would fret over him not smiling enough and now...he is smiling and laughing at EVERYTHING-makes me feel good because he always laughs at my jokes! My heart just melts when he crinkles up that nose, squints his eyes, and shows his teeth while making a squealing noise.

"My Mommy is soooo FUNNY!"

Had to include this one because....well, I probably don't have to say why but I will- LOOK AT THOSE EYES! They are big, bright blue, and beautiful. Thanks Nick!
