So this is the sweet little cuteness that I get to wake up every morning. Our little boy is an excellent sleeper and sleeps so long we have to wake him up for breakfast! I know we are so so lucky and moms across the world are jealous of our baby who sleeps 9-10 hours at night. lol. Yes - although mommy doesn't sleep that long - would love to! But I haven't worked that out yet with the nursing thing (you moms know what I mean). And I need some time to wake myself up before he needs to get up so I'm still getting up earlier with Daddy for school. But it is great not to have to get up during the night for feedings though. And sleeping baby at night means more awake time for playing during the day. :) He is a good and easy going baby though and a joy to watch. He's still a big cuddle bunny and loves to be held and talked to. He's talking back now too which is so cute! Here's a video we took after breakfast this week for Daddy to see when he gets home from school. :)

Handsome Man
Just had to post some pictures of the most handsomest boy in the neighborhood. :)
He looks so big in this picture. So "little boy" instead of "baby boy."
That's all folks
Two Months and Too Cool
Hello all! Jet is doing fabulous as you can see. :) He had his two month check up last week and our little man is 11lbs7oz - right on track. :) He did really great with his shots (though it was really sad to see him cry) and recovered quickly once I was able to pick him up. He's a good little boy.
Jet also went to see Dr. Hudgins - his neurosurgeon - and he said Jet is still looking great! No shunt and healing beautifully. Here are some picks from our trips to the doctors.

Mi Familia
Hola mi amigos! Yes, we are teaching Jet spanish. lol. Not really...not yet anyway. Not even sure how to spell anything I just tried to say. Pretty sure Aunt Kay can see to his bilingual studies in the future. But we did want to post a few pics from last week when Jet had several family moments with 2 generations of grandparents who love him.
Almost as much as we do... ;)
Here is Jet with his great grandfather - Papi's Daddy (Mommy calls him Geedaddy).
And Jet with his Papi (Mommy's Daddy).
Both Geemommy and Geedaddy got to hold Jet and spend some time watching his cuteness. :) Jet was very awake and just stared and stared at his great-grandparents.
Then made some silly faces.
Then Jet got an evening visit from his Grandmother and Grandfather Penny. :) What a big day of family gathering. Jet didn't hesitate to chat it up and show off his new baby talk.
Time for bed cute little stinker. :)

Mr. Brown Can Moo Can You?
Okay so my teacher clock is going off with school starting in a few weeks and I'm making Dr. Seuss references. lol. He's dressed in brown...and he is beginning to make noises that could be mistaken as mooing, so it seemed appropriate. :) It is funny how I am excited about the school year. It comes naturally I guess. But I will be playing a different role this time - as Mommy. Yes I am staying at home with my little angel who' s not big enough for school quite yet. :) But I'm sure we will be visiting our share of school between Mommy's and Daddy's schools to meet their friends and former students. Until then we will spend the last bit of summer just spending time with Mr. Brown. :)
Our Little Man is certainly not camera shy. :)
See the hand behind his head...yeah he's workin it. lol.
These new shoes are from my cousin Jane. They are camo and say "little trooper" on them. She knows how I am Mommy and Daddy's little trooper. :)
Being this cute is exhausting...
It's time for a nap.
When I wake up I love my toys. lol. This cracks mommy up.
Here is some video of how big I'm getting. And this is not how I ride in my carseat btw. :)
Okay so there's a story behind this video. This morning Jet was showing off his new trick from the last day or so - talking. Well...we call it talking. :) He makes noises that aren't crying or burping so it's a pretty cool thing to us. lol. So he's just cooing away and as soon as I get the camera out he stops and just stares at me. So I stop taping cause I'm running out of memory on the camera and then he starts up again! This happened 3 times and every time I'd stop the camera he'd talk, and when I'd start he'd stop and stare. My mom and I were cracking up. So you can hear us in the background as we laugh at this little jokester.
Fresh Air and Friendship
Hello everybody! Jet is back in the photo takin' business. :) We got to snap a few shots this weekend of our growing boy and marvel at how big he is getting. Such a chubby little thing! lol. He loves being outside these days. When he gets fussy we usually end up out in the warm air and it calms him down. We even went on our first trip to the park last week. Jet fell asleep in his stroller and after becoming surprisingly winded pushing him around, Mommy decided it was time to start exercising and get back in shape! :)
The most sweetest thing you ever did see :)
I love Mommy...
But Mommy is crazy. :)
Aunt Kelly and Me. :) She is such a good cuddler.
Later that night we had a great and wonderful visit from our good friends the Bassetts (remember the cool Jet blanket? Those Bassetts :) ) and Jet got his picture taken with Hope. David and I remember when Hope was born and used to hold her when she was just a baby like Jet. Now Hope is a beautiful young lady and holding OUR baby! We made it clear to Jet that he is not allowed to grow up that fast. :)
We love you Miss Kelley, Mr. Drake, Evan, Grace, Claire and Hopey. :) Visit again soon!

Lazy Dayz
So people have asked for updates but there is not much to update. :) The Jet-Man is doing well - he's got a pair of lungs on him and will holler at us every now and then for a while - but overall he is great. :) He has wonderful manners in public (we really worked with him on this. lol.) and has recently made a trip to the mall and several appearances at church. He is really working on his tongue exercises these days and trying to smile and even talk to us. He's actually more of lip-sync kinda guy - he moves his mouth at us but most of the time no sound comes out. There is an occasional "ahh" sound but he saves those for really important conversations.
You know I'll use any excuse to post pictures of my little guy - but life has been so unorganized and busy in a "not-sure -what-I-did-all-day" sort of way that I have even failed to take pictures recently! :) These are all I have - some pics David snapped of a nap-on-mommy the other day. Enjoy the dozing dream-boat and I promise to post more soon. :)
