Jack helps me cook

I'm wearing a Moby wrap, which is already sooo useful! (We don't usually carry him this way, since his neck isn't strong enough yet, but he really enjoys looking out at things, so we did it for a short while -- don't worry, I kept his neck supported!)

some rare awake time

We were getting ready to go to the car, which is why he's wearing the silly hat. The second one is when he figured out we were taking pictures. He likes taking pictures. :)

best. face. ever.

This is the I-just-burped-and-passed-out face. :D

Sparky meets Jack

We don't have any pictures of Bo meeting Jack because Bo was ignoring him when he first arrived. Here is Sparky being terrified, and then getting his bravery bolstered by Alex picking him up.... They're getting along better now, but I think Sparky still doesn't quite get what's going on here.

I have been meaning to post these for a while. We were playing a game where everyone tried to guess the circumference of my belly. :P

Looking at my belly here (about 1 1/2 months before due date), I guess maybe I should have suspected a ten-pounder!

It was pretty funny seeing how extra, extra long most of these strings were.
Alex's job was to be the impartial belly-measurer.


Becca thought this game was pretty awesome. She collected up all the strings and put them to good use. :D

belly button

Jack's umbilical cord nubby came off last night. We were telling him that this is his first big growing-up milestone!

Bo helps with the baby

He has been leaving dead mice for us on the steps of our apartment building. :)
