Last week we were also battling a little cold. Both of my boys were not feeling the greatest, but luckily I stayed healthy and could take care of Jonathan while Chris had to fend for himself.
This is Jonathan's newest and most favorite toy. We call it his jungle gym which I’m sure will mess him up for life when he learns what a real jungle gym is :). It plays all kinds of jungle sounds (he loves the elephant’s trumpet) or calypso style music while it lights up. I searched for it at 4 or 5 Target stores before finding it at a one I stopped at on the spur of the moment. Go figure! At least he loves it so it was worth all the effort!
He is getting so coordinated now when he reaches for his toys!
I was trying to capture a smile and got this pose instead. We call it “What up, Homey”.
If we needed proof that he is indeed my son, look no further than this picture. He isn’t even three months old and he has the thumb sucking technique mastered!
This is his reaction to Tummy Time after about 3 minutes! Any suggestions from you more experienced moms on how to make it more fun and less traumatic?
These are some pictures of Jonathan hanging with Daddy. Chris can coax a smile out of this kid like no one else. However, I am a half second too slow in my picture taking so we have yet to capture his absolutely dazzling smile on camera. You really have to see it in person—it is impossible not to smile back. This first one is after Daddy's magic touch calmed him down late at night.
At Grandpa and Grandma Schaefers' house!
Check out the two of them seriously pondering whatever it is in front of them!
He likes to reach out and touch your face as you talk to him.
We think his tummy is his most ticklish spot!

Here is how I spent my 2 month birthday. First Mom and I ran some errands. Then I was just hanging with my ducky friend.
