Okay, so my "post blog soon" didn't exactly happen.
We had a nice time visiting with all of the Grandparents over Thanksgiving. Jared had a good time, since there was lots of football on. Diane had a good time, since she actually got out shopping a little. Steve had a good time, because he got to eat a lot. :) Jared liked visiting, although it was quite a switch from just hanging out with just me all day. We also got to hang out with Sexy Mike, and that was fun.
Jared is becoming a bad eater. He just finds eating boring, and anything else more interesting. He starts fighting and arching his back after only a little while. He seems to be eating enough, but every time feeding him, bottle or breast, is a challenge.
Jared loves to kiss himself in the mirror, which is cute, but the mirror gets a lot of slobber on it. He does what I call open-mouth guppy kisses. If you are the lucky recipient of one, you will have a nice wet spot on your chin, knee, etc.
He is growing some hair back. It is straight, and the color of Steve's hair.
He is getting heavy. I'll be curious to see how much he weighs at our next Dr.'s visit in a month.
He's starting to suck his thumb. I was hoping this could help get rid of the pacifier for sleeping, but he refuses to suck on his thumb in bed.
When you read him books, he is good at looking from left to right as you read. He also follows finger pointing to objects in books. He looks up periodically to see who is reading to him. He likes to smack at books, since his favorite book has crinkly paper in the cover and makes noise.
Steve got him an exersaucer for Christmas. We've been adding one toy a day, like the 12 days of Christmas (except that we only have 10).
Tomorrow we're going to my NASA Holiday party. They haven't seen Jared for a while, so that will be fun.
