Jack's First Flight



We like to call this one Fat & Happy! Jack looks a lot like his uncle Jess when he was a baby.

Jack is 11 weeks old now and continuing to grow like a weed (as you can see in the picture above). He's about 15 pounds and 25 inches long....the size of an average 4-6 month old. At our last check up he was 95th percentile for height and weight. You would think I added protein to his formula! I guess the boy just likes his food - I can only imagine what he will do when he gets his hands on solids.

He continues to talk to us all the time and has added small giggles to his daily routine. It's the sweetest thing. We've yet to capture it on video but hope to soon. This kid has never performed on demand. But he's pretty happy all the time and loves to get his body moving...especially when he's naked. Check it out our naked boy in action in the video at the bottom.
Since my last post, I have gone back to work. It's been a relatively easy transition since I am only in the office part time. The days I am there we have an awesome nanny named Megan. She just adores Jack - what more can you ask for. I miss my little buddy like crazy but I think it's been good for me to get back to the swing of things. It feels like our little family is settling into a nice routine.

Our other big news is that Jack took his first plane ride 2 weeks ago. We went to Chicago for his Aunt Dani & Uncle Lionel's wedding. He was a great little traveler and slept the entire flight. We took him all over Chicagoland and he was such a trooper. He got to meet all his aunts, uncles and cousins from the David family. He also got to meet his Great Grandma Lucy and all his extended family. Everyone just loved him. He fussed a bit here and there because he was out of his element, but overall he was quite the angel.

The next big travel test is the 4 hour flight to Cali which we will be taking in 2 weeks. We're looking forward to introducing baby Jack to the Barber's, the Sandoval's and all our friends. In the meantime we're just enjoying our sweet baby as he gets more and more fun to be around. We cherish our family time with him and can't wait to see what he will do next! Here are a few pictures of our fun these past two weeks.
Jack and daddy had on matching vests for the rehearsal dinner. He slept through most of the event.
Here's Jack with Christian and his sisters Melanie, Dani and Mandi.

I love this family picture, except that Jack has barf all over his shirt - that's our boy!
