"Jumpa Jumpa"

Oh, our little Andrew is so funny sometimes. He's always shown interest in jumping, but it wasn't until a couple weeks ago that we pulled out ol' Johnny Jumper and let Andrew play. We tried to put him in it a while ago, but his legs wouldn't touch the floor. Now he loves it and he always wants to "jumpa jumpa" as we call it.

These few photos are from his first time in the jumper. At first he didn't really know what he was doing...

Then he figured out that it was fun!

His first real attempt at jumping...

Now he's a lot better at jumping and loves it!

He really likes to look at himself in the mirror. He will talk with himself and laugh. I have video of that coming later. He's just really entertained with himself. (And it gives me a break too)
One day I was in the craft room working on something and Andrew and I are listening to music and having a good time. I noticed the jumper wasn't making much noice and I look over at Andrew and this is what I saw...
Poor little guy got plum tuckered out. (Um, not really sure how that saying got started. My mom says it. Pretty much he jumped himself to sleep)

And yes, I got it on video...

Random Photos

Here are some photos from the last month or so. Enjoy!

Andrew has found his feet and likes to pull off his socks.

He likes to lay with his hands behind his head like he's posing.

Another posing position.

We were at a friend's house for the Superbowl. The babies were doing tummy time so I put Andrew with them. Notice how his head is down? (He's better now).

Oh ya. This was a picture from Ryan's work Christmas party. It was a lot of fun and the first time I left Andrew. (The first time we left him with a babysitter - a friend of ours).

My boys.

Andrew has been spending more time in the Bumbo seat. It helps his neck muscles and helps him learn to sit up. He sometimes hates it, but usually he'll be fine if he can look at himself in a mirror.

hehe

More photos coming soon...stay tuned!

Exersaucer Fun!

I "splurged" and got Andrew an exersaucer for him to play in. At first he hated it, but now he's getting the hang of it. He's still not strong enough to stand/sit on his own so we have to stuff the seat with blankets to keep him up.

On another note, it finally hit me. He is my child. He's not going to leave me (at least not now) and he has become all the more cuter in my eyes. I'm sure I'll be posting more videos and photos because of that. It hit me when we were giving him a bath and he started splashing around - so cute! (I have video of that I'll post later). Ahh, I love my boy.

This first video is more of him smiling and being cute.

In this video he's starting to get the hang of things.

He now knows how to play with most the things on his exersaucer. Ah, he's too cute!

X Ray Results

So we heard back from the Dr. Andrew's head is fine. She told me to keep him off his back for 3 weeks! I have no idea how I'm going to do that. I still put him to sleep on his back but we play in the exersaucer more and use the baby carrier more. Oh well, I'm just happy he's fine. Update more later.

Andrew's First...

I guess Andrew will be having a lot of "firsts" coming up. I was lucky enough to get this first on video today. Enjoy!
