Happy Baby

JKW was 2 months old yesterday. Seems like only yesterday the doc pulled that wrinkly, screaming, swollen, coneheaded thing out of Nancy's oven. Now we couldn't imagine life without him. He really is a very good baby (so far!...don't wanna jinx it). For the most part, he sleeps when he is supposed to sleep, eats when he is supposed to eat, and cries very little.

He had his 2 month doctor visit yesterday, and he weighed in at 13 lbs 4 oz (79th percentile) and measured 24.5 inches (90th percentile). He is healthy and happy, with the slight exception of when he got his first set of vaccines. He was not so thrilled with the "shots" part of the visit.

Now for a few pics:


This was after I told him a funny joke.



His "official" 2 month photo, complete with the badge his M made him.


Here are some action shots of him laying on the changing table on our dresser. Like I told you last time, there is nothing exciting above him but the bottom of our tv that is hanging on the wall. But he loves it. It is the most entertaining, funniest bottom of a tv you will ever see.

Mr. Smiley

Jacob has started smiling more and more. He loves his little activity mat and all the fun things dangling from it.

The two other things that always make him smile are kinda weird. Being tickled on the chin is one. The other is when he is on the changing table that is on top of our dresser. I have no idea why, as all he really does is stare at the bottom of our tv that is hung on the wall, which is pretty unexciting. But he loves it.

Happy Birthday Nancy!

Just wanted to give a shout-out to the most incredible wife and mother I know. Happy Birthday!

(She is only one year younger than me for 2 months)

7 Weeks Old

Here are some more pictures, since I have been bad about blogging and posting them. Jacob is doing great. I am anticipating he will be walking by next week, and talking within the month.
And with Nancy as his mom, algebra is not far behind.

Yo, man, this milk is some good stuff.

6 Weeks Old

J-Dub weighed in yesterday at a whopping 11 pounds on the dot...3 lb 3 oz more than his birth weight.

This weekend, we are attempting our first excursion without him. We have been to dinner and stuff like that, but never an all day affair. We are going to tailgate and go to the A&M vs. Louisiana Tech game on Saturday. Nancy's mom is coming in to babysit for the day. I am spending the night at our hotel, but Nancy is driving back after the game. For some reason she doesn't want her mom to have to get up at 3 am and 6 am to feed him.

Here are a few pics that I made Nancy take today so that I could post them on this blog:
