Like father, like son


Andy had fun imitating Jack's positions the other night. Jack has also made a discovery in the past couple weeks--his feet. So far he hasn't pulled them up as far as his mouth, but with his teething I'm sure we'll have some toe chewing going on before too long. I couldn't get Jack to pull his feet up very far for these pictures, but he's at least grabbing them. Of course he wouldn't do it for me when he was dressed, so I had to take the pictures when he was naked. At least he posed so he kept his dignity intact.




Jack is starting to laugh more and more, but he's still unpredictable as to what makes him laugh. What works one day will not work the next. It's also hard to figure out what he'll think is funny. Last night I was wearing him in his Snugglie carrier while I was doing some prep work for dinner. He started laughing, and I couldn't figure out why. He wasn't laughing at the TV or any toys nearby. Then I started wondering if it was something I was doing, and sure enough, he apparently thinks cutting chicken is hilarious. I don't know if he liked the way the kitchen shears looked, or the sound they made when cutting, but every time I would cut a piece of chicken he would laugh--really hard too! I wound up cutting the chicken into extremely small pieces so he would keep laughing. Maybe tonight I'll cut some vegetables and really crack him up.
