Who needs clothes?




Sorry for the delay, but things have been moving mighty fast around here. There simply has not been time to update everyone on our little man's progress. With weddings, holidays, parties, and more, we have been go, go, going nonstop. So has Jack. We had a little scare a couple of weeks ago when we took his shoe off one night and he foot was swollen up twice the size of the other foot. Of course we thought he had broken it, so we went to the urgent care center. Turns out it was a little blister or bruise and Robees that were a little too tight on his footsies. Needless to say, those shoes have been retired. Justin had been telling me they were too small, his expertise on the matter crafted from his days as shoe capitain. We are also scooting. So close to crawling, but he just can't seem to understand that his tummy needs to be off the ground. We can't close our eyes without him making it across the room in record time. Where does he want to go? To the brick hearth of course. It is enough to make your stomach churn and the impulse to lock him in a padded room where he can't get hurt kick in. Another fun thing is that he has now learned how to get his arm out of his shirts. It is a fun little trick that he accomplishes with great speed and a sly little smile on his face. Yesterday we started chewing on teething biscuits. It was great to see him trying to feed himself, even if most of it ended up on his clothes, face, and hands. All in all, things are going great. He is just growing way too fast.
