Check out my moves...

I think the latter looks a little like Elaine (Seinfeld reference for those not "in the know") -- he has his thumb up and back like she did.

Almost a big oops

Well, Jack fell in love with playing with our cordless phones. He loves the beeps and the lights and that they are easy to carry while walking. I didn't think much of it, because what are the odds he hits 911 and the "talk" button or the "call" button. Not good, right? I usually cleared the numbers every few minutes just to be sure he didn't all Zimbabwe or anything. Yesterday he had hit "922" then call! That is WAY too close for comfort.

So, that is the end of this toy...now to figure out where to put them where he can't see them or reach them AND the cords stay out of the way.

Getting pushed around

Having fun at a playdate!

Hmm, not so flattering photos...

but I thought they were sort of funny -




In happier news, he has figured out how to stand up without holding on to anything and he is signing up a storm. He signs rain, dog, fan and light quite consistently besides milk - which is the big one of course!

Jack and the box

(Ok this was an attempt to get him in the box - all for the sake of this blog:)

Walking Movies!

13 months (1 day) Update

This is a short one..

* We have a walker! Jack will now, voluntarily, walk from object to object in the house. He can't walk more than about 15 feet at a time, and usually less than that, but he is doing great. He is like a little pinball, just bouncing off furniture as he goes. He can not stand up from the ground on his own yet. I will try to get footage.

* He has 6 teeth..the top center 4 and the bottom center 2.

* He still loves his cheese, but almost as much he now loves blueberries. He also likes watermelon and a certain kind of cracker and a certain kind of Mac N cheese.

* He is still struggling with sippy cups, but does "get" them on occasion.

* He is down to one nap, around lunch time. Night sleep is still erratic.
