Four Months and Counting...

I've just spent some time going through my blog and even one year ago I had no idea what I was in for. Having Jack around makes everything better. Im more in love with John that I have ever been, I love working and making new friends. It just seems like because he is here, life in every area is just plain better. He marvels me daily with his good disposition. I cannot keep a bad mood because he is generally smiling and laughing (sometimes at nothing) and it is infectious. I cannot believe that he is four months old now. We have introduced him to the sippy cup. He gets it into his mouth some of the time. The NP we see told me that having him sit with us during dinner and giving him the sippy cup then is a great way to begin Family Dinner. I am a firm believer in the traditional Family Dinner. I did a huge research project on it in college. Everything is good about Family Dinner, social graces are passed along, manners, vocabulary skills, healthy eating habits, and the family is forced to look at eachother and (hopefully) converse with eachother for the duration of the meal. I'll step off my soap box now.... So we've begun the famly dinner! On a last note, I've started my new job at the VA...and it ROCKS!!!!
