The Box

I have always known that little kids love boxes I just never realized how young that interest developed. I was at work the other day but Chad said that Jack played in and with the box for over an hour. He tried to get a picture of him in the box but everytime he got the camera out he would crawl out (he wanted the camera, he is his father's child in his love for electronics) But here is what he was able to capture.

Independence

We were having breakfast this morning, Jack has a hard time picking up little pieces or bananas because they are so slippery so I just cut off a couple inch piece and he gums it off. That is all fine I'm all about him doing it himself. Then I was feeding him oatmeal, because seriously a 10 month old trying to eat oatmeal by himself that would be a mess. So we were eating and he had eaten probably 3/4 of it and he started banging on the tray. That usually means he wants more, so i go in for the next bite and he flaps his arms and the spoon goes flying, and lands right on his head. I couldn't get mad it is classic... baby with oatmeal on his head I just looked at Chad and asked him to get the camera.

After that I figured he already had banana in his ear and oatmeal on his head, why not give him a biter biscuit it will keep him happy while we clean up. So basically after his breakfast experience he got a bath. Man he is a cute kid!

Follow the leader

So not only did Jack learn to crawl in about a week, but he is now EVERYWHERE!!! He likes to follow us where ever we go so last night Chad got on the ground and started crawling around too. We were upstairs at my parent's house and it is a big loop so they tried to go around the whole thing. Jack also thinks that he should be standing whenever possible so he made frequent stops to stand up and see what he could see from that elevation.

He liked looking at his reflection in the oven door.

And he has learned about cupbords too.... not my favorite.

But they eventually made it all the way around.
