Random Thoughts

Yeah...really random. These are all things I don't really care to expand on online.
-Hooray for tax refunds when you have a kid. Seriously.
-Why do cookies call my name when I am staying up late doing homework?
-I hate letting people down because I am trying not to over commit myself.
-I don't think I would ever be able to be an individual sales representative for a company. I think I am too cheap. Plus I know other people who are so good at it, and I want to give them props for what they do.
-Education budget cuts for next year stink. It changes the attitude in the workplace.
-I think Jay may have a third nipple. John didn't even notice it until I pointed it out. We'll ask the doctor next time.
-I love working out once I am doing it...but I hate getting myself out to do it. Grrr.
-I've been thinking a lot about how much hometown Dutch roots made me the person I am today.
-John and I both think we might be a little bit lactose intolerant, but we both are choosing not to be (meaning we are still going to eat whatever we want:) I guess it might get a little bit smelly around here...we'll just blame it on Jay:)
-Do most people do 6 month and 12 month professional pictures but skip 9 month pictures? I think that is what we are going to do.
-Sooo happy for spring break. I think John is too because shortly after I took over baby duty today, I found him listening to heavy "ra ra" music in the office while "Praise Baby" music lingered in the living room.
-I think Jay might be teething now. For real this time. Maybe. But that is what I said the other 5 times too.
-I love Skype, even if adults have a hard time focusing on real conversations because the baby in your lap is so cute.
-Waaay excited to see family in the next week. Chad and Christine tomorrow, the rest of my family next week.
-The TV show Modern Family is really funny, we got a season from the library and are enjoying it.

Random pictures

In the last week Jay has changed a ton.
He can now army crawl, pull himself up to standing (although he usually hangs out on his knees), he has tried eating a few Cheerios, and he has been babbling a lot more too. (he still only says DADA)
Here is some proof:


Getting into trouble again:

Pillow protection



Jay enjoys standing by this toy for periods of time holding on and hitting the buttons...but eventually he falls down. When Jay had a temperature last week and I had to stay home one morning I built a fortress of pillows around him so I could walk 10 feet away to get a drink. When I showed John how well it worked- Jay stood up (and held on) for like 3 minutes without falling down.
Now we have taken the fortress down, but it was fun while it lasted.
