New developments

Steve, Jared, and I all had the same cold - it seems to be getting better now. Luckily, it was pretty mild - just congestion, with no fever. Jared's little baby coughs and sneezes seemed cute until he sneezed all over me one day, then they weren't so cute. :)

It seems like Jared is trying something new or getting better at something every day.
*He still really likes to stand with help, but he is getting a lot more stable now.
*He is becoming very vocal. Unfortunately for us, he likes trying out his higher pitch vocal range, which is hard on adult ears. And he is definitely louder too.
*He is getting a lot better at sitting. He can even sit unaided for a few seconds without tipping over if you balance him right.
*He is showing no interest in rolling over. Steve and I figure that he will just surprise us with it one day.
*He is showing an incredible interest in the world around him. This is often to the detriment of eating. For some reason, the chandelier in our dining room really distracts him from eating (even when it's turned off.)
*He smiles and laughs when you clap and say "Yeah, Jared!"
*He is getting much better at playing with his rattles and the monkey toy that Daddy bought for him.
*No teeth so far.

We have our 4 month Dr. visit soon, so I'll give you a stat update then.
New pics are up in the 3-6 month link.
