I've been going through his clothes today and playing dress-up. This is his "I love Big Dumps" t-shirt from Keystone.

Passport photo!
Yesterday we went to the post office to get Jacob's passport application. We are going to Germany in early summer. I was surprised that they make you hold your baby out like this for the photo - probably was instituted after Homeland Security came into being. It used to be that 1 or both of your parents would take the picture with you while you were held. Bizarre that they do it this way now, if you ask me - maybe they do it as a means of targeting potential infant combatants! In any event, Jacob totally took it in stride.

Finding the rhythm
Baby O. continues to delight & surprise. He is consistently sleeping in 3-4 hr. blocks & eating round the clock. I absolutely love this swing. It's like a tricked out SUV. Music, vibrations, soothing white noise, oh and it swings him into blissful quiet alert or sleep! Then Mom can get HER "num-nums " too!

Woo hoo! No hands!
The official debut of the Ergo Baby Carrier with Infant Insert. Baby Carrier was generously donated to us by my wonderful in-laws in Portland. Infant insert was purchased for a fraction of the retail price - have I mentioned recently that I LOVE CRAIGSLIST!?
I'm liking this carrier a lot because it distributes Jacob's ever-increasing weight evenly on my back. The sling does that too, provided that you design your wrap that way. It's nice to have both options - and even better, to have a baby who falls asleep in one of these - could I ask for more??

Another big day out
After my dr. appointment, Peter and I took Baby J and the dog out for a walk - this trail is right across the street from where Jacob was born. He was lulled right to sleep by the rocking of the stroller. May I just say that the BOB stroller is (and I mean this in the best way possible) the HUM-V of jogging strollers!!

The Force is strong in this one!
Jacob is a very strong little kid, and he eats like a lumberjack. He weighed 8.11 at birth, and 1 week later, he weighed 9.3!! He makes a mockery of any swaddle blanket that we tie. His arms are out of it before we're even done tying it. This morning, his prowess reached new heights - I woke up to find him scooching his way to my side of the bed - while he was still swaddled!!

Heart stealer
Jacob is starting to smile!! Amazingly, he is sleeping in 4 hour blocks too.
Hope it lasts...

Second time out
Weather was overcast but the temperature was perfect. Jacob slept blissfully the entire time. Teddy got to swim and play fetch. Mom and Dad got out for a nice walk and much-needed fresh air - and PEETS coffee!!
