Two New Milestones!

Today was quite the milestone day!

When Jay woke up this morning I went in to his room to get him for his first feeding. What did I see when I peeked into the crib? A little boy on his BACK looking up at me with a big smile. I put him to bed on his tummy (as usual) and sometime during the night or early morning he had rolled over! What a turkey...

And then at Sunday School this morning Dad happened to stick his finger in Jay's mouth since he likes to chomp on things and what did he discover? A sharp bottom tooth had poked out of his gum! That seems to help explain why Jay reverted to waking up for "no apparant reason" in the middle of the night several nights in a row this week. It was always at different times so I figured he wasn't getting his clock stuck for a feeding or something like that. Now I'm pretty sure he was dealing with a bit of pain from teething. He slept all the way through the night Saturday night for the first time in about 4 days, and I'll tell you, it was much appreciated.

Late this afternoon we visited our good friends Rick, Joy, and Kezia in Seattle. We hadn't seen them in a couple of months so it was great to catch up with the latest in their lives. Joy is pregnant with a second child due around Thanksgiving. She looks GREAT! Kezia will be an older sister to her soon-coming brother by 17 months. Here is a picture of Joy, Kezia, and Jay. Kezia loved her dinner and had gotten food on her cute top so her Mom decided it was time to take off. She also had a cute clip in her hair when we arrived, but since she'd had it in since church which started at 9:00 a.m., the clip was annoying her by 5 in the afternoon so she had stripped that out of her hair, too. She is just the cutest thing. She loves her books and she bobs her head back and forth to her favorite tunes.


Jay was an especially happy boy today. Here are a couple photos of him from this evening. Thanks to our friends Chris and Sarah in TX for this cute outfit and matching dump truck socks!

HI EVERYBODY!!

Happy Boy
