Tummy Time Face



Jack looks serious with his furrowed Christensen brow!!


We have some good pictures of "tummy time" we thought we would share.  He also likes his baby front-pack, and sometimes the sling. Usually the front-pack + Dad = Nap time!!

This week Jack has started to smile on his own - like if Scott or I smile, or if we tickle his lip or nose.  He is way better at holding his head up, and stays awake longer if we are doing something with him.  He is also more aware of his body, especially his hands.  He tries to reach for things, or swat at things (like his medicine) We enjoy reading various books to him and playing "tummy time".  Sometimes I read Winnie-the-Pooh, and Scott reads Lord of the Rings.

Scott enjoys watching old episodes of The Incredible Hulk on Netflix.com with Jack.  "Don't make me hungry, Mr. McGee! You wouldn't like me when I'm hungry" seems to be a catch phrase.  Scott has started calling Jack "Baby Hulk" when he gets fussy!

We ventured out this weekend into to wide world. We went to Mass on Sunday.  Granted, we sat in the vestibule the entire time, but we were there with all the other parents.  He was not too fussy, but had 2 wet diapers and wanted some lunch. It was quite the adventure! 

Grandma and Grandpa Christensen are coming out this weekend, so Jack will have met all his grandparents! We are excited for their visit. Eventually, they will just move out here and visiting will be a lot easier.

Have a great week!

Angel or Devil?

Kids. They are too funny. I had to share this one with all of you. We went to Mass today and tried to sit inside for once. Everything was great, until Jack noticed the missal in the pew had these nice orange and yellow squares or something in the illustration on the cover. He was conviced they were dominoes, but that is a word he struggles to say. So, at an especially quiet time in the Mass he looks at me and says, "damn-yous! damn-yous!" We both had a mix of embarassment and laughter. Only out of the mouth of a 2 year old! We went to the back of the church soon after that. :)

Happy Birthday Jack

Here are some photos from Jack's 2nd birthday day, and party. He was so excited he was telling everyone happy birthday! We 'filled' his room with balloons while he was sleeping. He was so excited to wake up to balloons! Jack wanted to pose with his new favorite toy - Buzz! They are still usually only separated at nighttime (too tempting to make noise all night). Oh, and that is his 'camera' smile. He uses it whenever he sees the lens pointed at him. So cheesy! Blowing out the candles on his Spiderman cake. Yes, all the other stuff is Thomas the Train. He likes what he likes. Jack wasn't about to let Emerson go home without a hug. It was a hug, not an attack. Promise!

Easter

Easter has come and gone, but finally I have some photos uploaded! We had a nice time and enjoyed spending time with Grandma and Grandpa C, Antie and Uncle John Tressell , and Uncle Robert, Aunt Natalie, and Emerson. Jack really enjoyed hunting for eggs (for a few days he asked us to hide them again so he could find them), but was a bit disappointed when they no longer had animal cracker in them. Anyway better late than never. I'll put all the photos on Flickr . :) Painting Eggs They actually sat still for three seconds! Family Photo - Easter 2011 Until next time...
