I'm a horrilbe blogger!

So much has been going on I haven't had the time to post in Months! I feel like the last few months have just flown by. Let me fill you in! We'll start with Jack and his milestones...

1) He said his first words! Yep! That's right he said...."Kitty, Kitty!" I'm sad to say I wasn't there to hear them the first time but he re said it for Daddy and I. He was at Grandmas for the day when Uncle Matt came over and they were playing with Grandma's kittens. I so wish I was there for that. So now we have the don't ask, don't tell policy with Grandma. So He WILL do all his firsts at home! :)

2) Jack took his first steps. He spent the day after thanksgiving with Daddy while mommy and cousin Shannon did our annual Christmas shopping. He was so miserable when I got home I couldn't put him down to take my shoes off! So after about an hour of carrying him around I put him down and boy he didn't want any of that so he got up and walked right over to me. I was so excited I screamed and clapped and scared him so he hasn't done it again since! So were working on it :)

3) Jack has 7 teeth! So we're learning how to brush his teeth. He actually really enjoys this! We bought the baby Orajel, the one that come with the finger brush and tube of paste. We put the brush on the end of the tube and he goes to town brushing his teeth!

4) Thankfully he's sleeping through the night. We'll for the most part. He wakes up and fusses for about 2-3 Min's about 4-5 times a night. We just go in his check on him make sure he has his bottle and he's usually back to sleep before we get into his room. Mom and Dad are really happy about this. We REALLY miss our sleep.

OK, I think you're caught up on milestones for Jack now. Some quick things on mom and dad.

1) Mom went back to work back in early Nov. But after about a month of that I decided I needed a change so I started a new job. I've been there for a week this coming Monday and the ladies there all seem really nice and the work is challenging and interesting. Plus I have different hours so I get to spend more time with Jack, which of course is a great thing.

2) Daddy's been really busy this Christmas season! I'm very lucky to have a husband that likes to cook! He's been cooking up a storm this holiday season! I think I've gained 5lbs since Thanksgiving.

We're all really getting into the holiday season this year. Every weekend we've been trying to make a new holiday tradition. I do have to admit sometimes it's hard to find some things to do with a 11 month old!

This New year is going to be a very special new year for us. It's the start of our first year with Jack. Plus Jack turns 1! Yep our little man was born on 1/1/08. So this year were having Jack's Rock'in New Year! We're celebrating the New Year and Jack's first birthday on 12/31/08. This should be so much fun. I think I'm looking forward more to his party then Christmas! LOL!

If I get too busy to post again for awhile have a wonderful Holiday Season, Merry Christmas and a Grand New Year!
