is this a sign?





James has been busy! He has been doing baby crunches all the time in order to prepare for sitting. He has learned to recognize the sign for massage (we are doing modified ASL), and gets really excited (what can I say, the boy loves his massages!). His favorite book is "moo baa la la la" by Sandra Boynton. He loves the animal sounds and when I do the signs for the animals. He has also taken an interest in our animals (2 dogs, Gabe and Madeline, 2 parrots, Penelope and Abigail). He loves to watch the dogs play. His favorite song recently is "Old McDonald". Anyone notice a pattern? ;o)

We got an Ergo baby carrier this week (the funds were a gift from his Grandmother), and James just loves it! He was starting to get a bit wiggly in his pouches, and is still a bit too small for the hip carry, so we splurged on a camel colored Ergo! I have yet to master the back carry, though we are doing well with the front carry! Sorry the picture is so bad, it's hard to take pictures of yourself!

Good pictures. But I don't understand what you're saying -- a sign of what?

You might be in for it with another animal lover in the house Joe- you're outnumbered ;o)

Lexie LOVES Moo Baa La La La!!! Have you done Barnyard Dance?
Lexie and James would get along with their animals.
Joe, I feel your pain. I have an animal lover daughter and a husband who has a much softer spot for them than I.
