The past month and then some...

So, in the past month, we've had a lot of fun. Here's some of what happened:

Emma and Jack got to visit with each other when Mike,
Julie and Emma stopped by on their way back from
Ben & Molly's wedding on November 1st. Jack and Emma
really had fun...and they even stayed up past their bedtimes!

Here's Jack bracing for Daddy's driving.
He already knows what a crazy driver his Daddy is!!

Jack has become aware of himself in the
mirror and loves to kiss himself.
I'm not sure if I should be concerned that he
wants to kiss another boy, but it's cute none the less!

Matt, Sara, Don, Matt & I went to the Monday night football game.
It was fun...except for the whole loss thing. Wide right...again!
I think the sports teams in this town are cursed or something!!!
This was Don's first NFL game. How depressing to have it be this one :( Sorry Don!

Jack and I visited Daddy at work (school).
In the background is Matt's Daddy board.
His students made it for him last year when Jack
was born and Matt keeps adding pictures to it.
It's quite a piece of art!!
Jack broke part of his toy!
As you can see, he's just as shocked as I was!!

Jack has learned how to pull himself up on things, like his gate.

He also can climb on his gate. I call him my little monkey!!

We celebrated Thanksgiving at my mom's house.
Jack's great gramma Koziel got this bib for him
to commemorate the occasion. Of course, this is the
only picture of it clean...he's such a messy eater!
Oh, and he loves pickle juice now too!!

Grampa Kryman got to play with Jack a little bit about a week ago.
Grampa hasn't seen Jack in a while,
so they were both very excited to see each other.

Here's Jack getting into a box of toys.
Notice how the bottom two shelves are cleared of
books...he loved to pull them off and eat the covers!

Jack with some of the toys he found in the box.
He was actually kneeling here. How cool!!

The above picture is Jack in his tub on December 5th. Below is him in his tub in July. Wow...has he grown a lot since the summer!!!

In the past month Jack has also figured out how to crawl (for real this time). He scoots from one room to the next with lightening speed! I'm so glad I put the gates up a while ago :)
Jack has also been the adventurous one with the foods he's eating too! He loves every flavor of baby food except peas. We've even tried Guava, Mango, Blueberries & Apples, Bananas & Strawberries... he loves them all!!
But recently, he's been eating table food too! He's tried (and loves) cheerios, clementines, dill pickles, vanilla ice cream, crackers, and Beechnut strawberry banana puffed rice. Hopefully the trend continues and he's up for any food I feed him...unlike his Daddy!! :-)

Well, that's all for now. Hopefully I'll get more pictures and info up around Christmas (while Matt's on break!)
