5-Month-Old Jack

What up. I'm Jack Cool.

What a sweet boy our Jack is. We love him SO much! He always has a smile for me, whenever I look at him or talk to him, his gummy grin spreads across that adorable chubby face. He loves his brother and grabs onto him every chance he gets. They wrestle (for lack of a better word) although I'm there making sure Sawyer  doesn't get too rough with him, but it seems like Jack is crying less when attacked by Sawyer, and more entertained now, so that's good. Jack is so content and he likes rolling around on the floor and is doing some serious push ups these days. It looks like he's doing the cobra pose in yoga. He also pushes himself backyards and is getting stuck partway under couches and chairs. He is definitely getting more interested in his surroundings. He was sitting on papa's lap at the dining table and worked his flailing little hands up to papa's milk and spilled it everywhere.


He is SO excited to start eating with us...I might start him before he's 6 months, just because he seems extra interested.  He likes to shove anything and everything into his mouth...this includes his feet. He is a light sleeper. He doesn't like loud noises. He is a sympathy crier - when Sawyer cries, he joins in just because it seems like the right thing to do I guess. He loves to be held, but sometimes if he's fussy it means he just wants to lay down and roll around. I'm so thankful Jack is part of our family and pray that we can be great parents for him and his brother! We love you Mr. Jack!

Wow! He's pretty much as big as Eden is right now; she's only 2 pounds heavier!
