Little Kong: Back to Normal

Holidays are over, thank god.....its a brand new year, and things have finally quieted down in our house. Tree and all xmas decorations are down and packed away, house is clean (although I'm still finding pine needles here and there), and for the most part we are back to what we call "normal"!
Jack was up at 5am today, which he never does. I usually feed him and then he goes right back down until at least 8 or 9am...........but I figured since he's nice and calm right now from an early morning breakfast of oats and peaches....that I would take this time to get a quick post in.

In Jack news, he still has not rolled over and continues to dislike tummy time. I continue to encourage tummy time and he IS getting better and better about it. The key is to catch him in a happy mood and he will generally go along with it for a little bit. He is trying so hard to flip over so I know its only a matter of time before it happens.
OH YES and we have a TOOTH!!! It popped through Monday (2 days ago is when I noticed), and boy was he ugly that day, poor baby had a rough day for sure! He was so cranky and miserable, and to top it off he was stuck at the restaurant with me all day long. After a morning and beginning of afternoon of wondering what was going on I noticed them and sent my dad to the store for some Tylenol....which worked like a charm! He was seriously a brand new baby once the meds kicked in.

I promised my niece and nephew a quilt for their birthdays and so that's what I've been working on in between playtime and feedings these days. Serena's bday is in less than two weeks so I've got to get going if I want to finish and get it shipped to her in time.

Good News: My BEST friend Monica is PREGO!!!! I had a hunch that this might be the case but she hadn't said anything to me yet. She came over 2 weeks ago and announced that she's 14 weeks pregnant and I CAN'T WAIT to find out what she is having.....
My other really good friend Melissa just found out that she's having a little boy!!! YAY Boys are the best!
Jack will have a little friend in just a few months, so excited for her and her family.

Went to BuyBuy Baby yesterday in search of a variety of organic baby food. Wegmans and Target have some but its pretty limited and I feel like I've been giving him the same small variety for a while now. I I'm on the hunt for mainly fruits since I've yet to try making them myself. While there I found a teething toy that finally makes sense to me. Its a strawberry (they have grape ones as well) that vibrates when the baby chews on it.......so glad I found it to because the second I gave it to Jack he LOVED it! He will sit with this thing vibrating on his gums perfectly content.

Totally unrelated....The wind is RIDICULOUS today, gotta love toting a baby around in the already annoying infant car seat in 500 mile an hour winds!!!! NOT FUN! Poor kid probably has whiplash :(
