Cribs should not be used as cages...

...or at least that is what the directions to our crib read when we put it together. Jack doesn't seem to mind it too much though! :)

Can't keep me down!

The minute you try to change Jack now he tries to flip over! One of these days he might just crawl off the end if we're not careful!

I have teeth now to help me eat more :)

Jack has 4 teeth on the bottom. They came in first.



Jack has two teeth on the top (you can't see the side one) and two more starting to show through. It is not easy trying to get a picture of KJack's upper teeth!

See my new Hawaiian shirt!


Jack can get up on all fours now. It won't be long until he takes off!


Crawling is hard work!




Not so sure about the cantaloupe.


Guess who dressed me today?...It wasn't mommy!

Nobody told me crawling was so difficult!

Let's see, first I stick my tush up...


Then I stick my head up...


Maybe I will just try flying instead...

The return of the milk coma


Daddy spiked my hair for church


Daddy also put Jack in the dryer, don't worry, it wasn't on! :)

In the front yard

Why do I have to wear this silly hat mommy?


Ha, I got it off!!!


This grass feels funny on my toes!


Cutest boy in the neighborhood.

Brushing of the hair....

Jack now gets ticklish when we brush his hair, it is just the cutest. Daddy likes to give him a spike now that he finally has some hair.

8 months old!!!

Jack chillin in the floor and saying his favorite word...ahhhhhhhh...


See my phone and my teeth! Watch out, I bite...just ask mommy.

At trip to Bluffton Ohio

Kenna, a good friend of mine from college, recently had twins and last weekend I went to her baby shower. Jack is exactly 6 months older than her twins and looked like a giant compared to them. I also got to meet their older sister Esther, she will be two this summer. One is named Naomi Ruth and the other is Hannah Kristine. My roommate from college also went to the shower and Jack had fun hanging with Rae. He is not biased though, he seems to like all pretty girls these days!

Charlie is Jack's new buddy because he let him play with his watch.



Grandma lets me do whatever I want, including chew on her pen!






Jack found Daddy's hat while sitting on the chair with grandma and was quite proud of his new find. He even held on tight to it while grandma took him for a ride.
