Shots and envelope destruction

Jack had his second round of Synegis shots today. He's up to 20lbs, 10oz. He hated the shots of course. Jon took him in, and did a good job of consoling him afterwards (flying was involved).
No pics from today - but here's one from a few days ago. This is what happens if you hand Jack an envelope and then walk away for 60 seconds (envelope bits everywhere - and a few moist with saliva).

And a shot from our front door a couple of afternoons ago.

We grow momma cats here

Carrots and squash

Jack had bananas last week - he loved them. He tried acorn squash next - definitely not a favorite.

Most recently, he tried carrots. He LOVES them! So if his face looks a little orange over the holidays, you'll know why. =)

And I finally finished hanging the last of the ornaments. Now we just need to finish the outdoor lights, you know, before Christmas sometime. =)

Other Jack news - he laughs when you say the words "wow", "beep beep", and "peekaboo", as long as you're very expressive and enunciate well. He sits up completely on his own - he's done that for a while now. He's learning how to pet the cats, and grabbing the occasional ear or handful of fur. And bathtime now requres both of us (one to minimize the splashing) and still results in lakes all around our kitchen floor. I think we're going to have to move to the real tub soon. He likes to "thump" by slamming both of his feet down when he's laying on his back. Jon can hear it from the basement.

Christmas tree

How is that we've had this camera for almost a year, and I still don't really know how to use it? I tried to use the manual setting tonight, but it was a no-go. Now we just need to find the manual and dvd that came with it...

Update: Jack got his 8th tooth in today (lower right 2nd incisor); we're all having a rough evening.
