Turqs and Caicos

It's a rough life being a baby but someone has to do it!! This past week my parents took the whole family down to Turqs and Caicos for "spring break." ok, technically it was Cliff''s spring break, but we needed one too. This was our first time renting a house and it was absolutely amazing. The house was right out on the beach and had it's own pool. Jack was great on the airplanes and did great on vacation too. He took really long naps, probably bc he was so heavily stimulated, and slept well at night too...in the room with us :) I USED to think that he woke up at 5:30 am and talked to himself and then passed back out until 6:45-7:00ish...I now know that he actually is awake the whole time, just playing in his crib :/ I guess that explains why he is ready for a nap by 8:30.

Also while on vacation we decided to introduce more solids...Jack now eats squash and prunes (nasty but necessary with all that rice cereal) and we mix it in with oatmeal...yummy.

Snow Days

Everyone has posted pictures of their experience with the snow, so why not me, right? Jack's first snow wasn't really all that action packed since he is really too little to play outside just yet. Here are our pictures :)

Rice Cereal...Yay for Solids :)

Yay!! that was yummy!!

Yay for Internet!!

Our internet is back up and working!! thank goodness!! I know you have been missing us :)

Jack is finally getting over his cold, so happy about that!! and friday we started with rice cereal!! He loves it, of course, except when he gets too tired then he doesn't want to work so hard. We have been woken up a few times lately with Jack on his stomach, he rolls over and then gets stuck!! this morning we had a breakthrough...he was crying around 5 am but just for a short bit. When we went to get him at 7:30 he was asleep on his tummy!! I also caught him the other day sleeping with his thumb in his mouth...so naughty :)

Busted sucking my thumb during nap time

This morning, the way we found him :)

I am WAY too busy for this playmat mom, get me out of here!!

It's Been a While!!

Sorry I have been MIA the last few weeks. Our internet at home is down and I have been too busy at work to update the blog :)

We have had LOTS going on in the Watson household. Jack got his first cold...miserable and was so sad to see him that way. This made sleeping almost non-existent in our house. But thankfully the doctor told us we could give him some medicine so he is doing much better now. Also, as of Friday Jack is rolling over!! Not just from his tummy to back but also from back to tummy!! we are very excited and nervous at the same time. I guess I can't leave him on the bed anymore while I am getting ready for work :) Jack is usually very happy, except for when he was sick, and loves to laugh. Here are some more recent photos of your favorite guy. I hope our internet gets fixed soon...hint hint John.
