I love when babies grab and play with their toes and he does it all the time! He loves his bumbo seat but all you Mom's out there that think they can't get out of this seat...THEY CAN!! Jake did it! Thank goodness he wasn't on the table like he is here!
We are having a bit of trouble with Jake and eating "real" food. He does NOT like it, doesn't want to have anything to do with it. I feel like I have tried everything. Tried the cereal first okay, so he doesn't like that...who would! Then I mix it with applesauce, what kid doesn't like applesauce?? So then I tried pears, didn't work. I thought that maybe those were too tart, so I tried sweet potatoes. Nope. Finally I tried bananas and we got a little bit in him. These are the pictures from the cereal with bananas. As you can see he doesn't look like he is enjoying it! Spits it right out!
Screams or moves his head away in disgust!
He has had two teeth come in though, so he is getting ready for food, we just have to figure out what he likes!
He isn't sitting up completely yet but he is very close. He can sit for about a minute and then just falls to one side.
He is also almost ready to crawl. I have said for the last month that I think he is going to crawl before he sits up! He is doing the whole rocking back and forth thing and has moved one knee! I know it will be any moment. I am on the fence about him crawling, I want him to crawl so badly so I don't have to hold him all the time, he wants to be held ALL the time. He is becomming quite the Mommy's boy. The separation anxiety has set in. Sometimes I can't even be in the same room with him and not hold him. But on the other hand I will have to watch him like a hawk crawling all around!
Jake is very inconsistent with his sleeping. Some nights he goes right to sleep all by himself in his crib. Then other nights it is a fight. He will just scream, which isn't ok when he and James are sharing a room, so one of us will have to rock him awhile to calm him down. Some nights he will sleep all night, meaning until about 6 or so, then back to sleep for another couple hours. Or some nights he will wake up three times a night! I just long for the day when I can get a full night sleep!
This past weekend we FINALLY took the bassinet down, even though Jake has been in his crib for three months now! It was a weird feeling though, not knowing what our future holds. Craig asked me if we were going to put it up on ebay... I told him not yet. A lot of people know whether or not they are going to have more kids or not, and it is just a weird feeling to not know. I guess it is better not knowing because if we aren't I might be a wreck, treasuring every last baby moment!

I love Jake's round dimply face....he is the smiliest baby ever!! =) And I can't believe that he is almost ready to crawl!! Oh that will make life so much easier!!
He is the "smiliest" little boy! :) And SO strong to already be up on all 4's! And that last part... ahhh... so sad. :( It's kinda better "not knowing," so you're not a wreck. I say, have another one! :)
He is so adorable and definitely is the "SMILIEST" baby ever and his photo should be in the dictionary with that word, LOL!
Believe me it is so sad to "know" your not having anymore so I think it's actually better that your not sure yet. Just treasure each day anyways!
