On Monday, Jared said Dada for the first time! There was even some Da-dee mixed in with his babbling too. :) It was so cute, I don't care that he didn't say Mama first. He actually has been saying ba-ba for a while, so getting to Da-da wasn't a far stretch. He was so happy and talkative, we had to Skype with both sets of grandparents that night to show off his new skill - he seemed very proud of himself!
In case you were wondering, Jared is getting pretty heavy, probably at least 18 pounds.
He still has huge gray eyes, eyelashes to die for, and straight hair the color of Steve's. I guess I lost out on the hair characteristics (for now.)
He is pudgy everywhere except his torso and face (except for his very squeezable cheeks!)
He doesn't seem to mind baths so much.
He LOVES books!
He loves bending forward over his feet while sitting to get onto his belly, which makes me really nervous!
He talks, laughs, and smiles all of the time at home, but is getting to be pretty quiet when we go out - we need to join a play group soon to get him interacting with other babies.
He loves looking at himself in the mirror and guppy-kissing (wide open mouth with lots of slobber) his reflection.
He is a joy, and the apple of our eye! :)
