LOOK WHO IS ONE YEAR OLD!!!!!!!!!!

11 months old

Jack's first holiday, to Centre Parcs €in Longleat. He just loves to be outside and especially playing in the leaves!

Fun in the sun

Summer time means Jack gets to play in his new paddling pool.

10 months

At 10 months old and in his new house Jack took his very first steps and this really is, the actual moment caught on video.

Goodbye to Leaman Close

We are moving house so here Jack is helping to pack!

Its a sad goodbye to the house where Jack was born now we are off to the bright lights so Jack can see his grandparents lots more yipeeeeee!

9 months

At 9 months, standing up is Jacks favourite game, he particularly likes to dance around the umbrella pole!!! ?

8 months old

As you can see Jack is still blonde, weighs just over 22lbs,which means he now gets his first proper car seat which he absolutely loves as he can see Mummy and Daddy in the front and where he is going.

He crawls like a pro and has even started pulling himself up to his feet sometimes.

He is sleeping through the night, every night now so Mummy is starting to catch up on her sleep too.

Jack loves to be heard and bash things to make a noise (like Daddy), watch this space for his first public performance!

Look what I can do!!!

On 8th June 2007 Jack finally figured out how to go forward and is now officially mobile!

Playtime with buzzybee

Now the summer is finally here Jack loves nothing more than a game of row the boat in the garden.

7 months old

Aged 7 months and Jack has learned to slide backwards on his hands and knees, which is fine until he gets stuck between the furniture!!!! He now weighs 21lbs and growing taller everyday!

Jack's first swim

On 23rd April2007, Jack went swimming for the first time. He loved and basically used it as one giant bath!!!

Hanging out with friends

All these babies are from our NCT antenatal class and were all born in September and October 2006. As you can see Jack really enjoys being with them all.

6 months old

Well as you can see weaning is still going well and Pirate Jack loves to be involved in the process, although doesn't always hit his mouth!!! Jack now weighs around 21lbs!
He has 2 teeth ( at the bottom) and is sitting up all by himself. Quite a busy month. Luckily for Mummy and Daddy he has not yet managed to coordinate his limbs enough to crawl hey there's no hurry!!!!
He loves to roll over onto his tummy but doesn't always remember how to roll back which is not funny at 4am!
he loves to bounce and is getting very strong legs and at last all the energy he is using means he is going through the night most nights now, yipee.

5 months old

This is a picture of Jack when he took Mummy out for Mothers Day.

Jack at the Park

Jack loves to go to the park with Daddy, who swings him very high!!!!!

REAL FOOD

Big news, Jack had his first taste of solid food today, 16th March 2007. He had 5 little spoonfuls of yummy mashed banana and was very impressed! He is now 5 months old and weighs a hefty 18lb 2ozs !!!!!!!!!

Growing up

As you can see it won't be long before Jack is on the move!! He now weighs in at a stunning 17lb 2oz and is growing hair at last which is blonde on the sides and dark on top!

He has also learned to squeal and will happily do this for most of his waking hours!!!!!!

Jack loves to sleep

4 months old

Well at 4 months old Jack is now sleeping in his own bed, he still gets mummy up in the night sometimes for a quick cuddle but mostly sleeps from around midnight till 7am which is a REALLY BIG DEAL!!!!!!

3 months old today

Well as you can see Jack has grown some and now weighs in at just over 12lb and is doing really well. He slept through the night for the first time yesterday (well midnight to 6am is good enough for us!!!!) He loves to chat and is particularly fond of Mummy and Daddy's singing and often joins in. He still sleeps in with us during the night, but sleeps in his own room during the day like a big boy. He certainly has become a happy handsome little man (hey we are biased).

Happy New Year 2007 @ 4 mins past midnight

As Daddy had to work, Jack kindly offered to take Mummy out for New years eve.

Christmas visit to Great Grandma's

Boxing Day 2006

After eating lots of christmas leftovers Daddy teaches Jack how to spend boxing day!

Jack's first christmas

Father Christmas found Jack's stocking and filled it to overflowing, he even woke Jack up for a cuddle!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Progress at last

Well as you can see formula suits Jack he now weighs 9lb 10oz

If I hide under this towel maybe I won't have to put my clothes on again

Jack's first taste of formula wasn't quite what he expected!

Ready Mummy......
Yuk what was that?
Ok I'll have some more.......!

2 months old

Well after a very difficult month with Jack and his feeding habits we have finally decided that it is time to switch to formula feeds. Jack still only weighs 8lb 10oz which just isn't enough for an 8 week old baby that was 7lb 13 oz at birth!!! Mummy is still going to try and give expressed breast milk. Jack also had his first jabs this week which weren't very nice, so all in all it is not suprising that he isn't smiling but still looks very cute in this photo!
