Smiles and Curiosity

Baby Jack, as he's affectionately known in our house, has become such a different baby. He is such a happy little boy all the time. He just loves to smile and coo and laugh and kick his legs. Today in church, he laid beside me on the pew for a good long while just looking around and being happy. When he's supposed to be going to bed, he'll cry if he loses his soother and if we go into his room to put it in his mouth, he's so busy smiling up at us that he can't even keep it in his mouth! And I love going in his room in the morning when I hear him up and he'll lie there and be so happy to be up and see me. And speaking of him sleeping, he seems to be so much more comfortable at night now that we've got his ezcema under control. In fact, I hardly recognize the guy anymore now that he's not just a big red rash from head to toe. That maybe part of why he's so much happier now, too. He's started grabbing things more, too.

Norah used to always ask "what doing mommy?" Well, now that phrase has become "what'cha doing mommy?". It's quite cute to hear. And today she said "take it easy". Guess she hears that some around here!!
