Picture Day! (8 Months)

Dear Jericho,
 Since you, Daddy and I were sick most of your 7th month we couldn't take pictures in January with Tim because he just had a new baby and Mommy was afraid of us getting him (or them) sick. So we stayed away. Sorry.. But You have PLENTY of other pictures thanks to the Project 365 blog that Mommy has going on over there. I'll make another post for those.

However, we did jump on your 8th month pictures quick this month since we missed the ones last month. It was a beautiful day outside, about 70 degrees and rather windy. Tim came down to Rancho Sahuarita, where we live, and we went Park hopping. That's the beautiful thing about living in Rancho is that there are so many parks for you to play at. Many grass areas within a 5 minute walk. Well... you don't like grass. Right now. Let's hope that changes.

When Mommy and Daddy were picking your name, we wanted something unique and "STRONG" for the little man that you would grow up to be. We were hoping you would like it. Daddy was also hoping to set you up for life so that you could be a wrestler.. Don't follow Daddy's dreams for you. It'll just end up with you having a broken back and have tons of bumps and bruises for Mommy to worry about.. Anyway, We'll save that rant for another day.

I am not sure you like your name.. I'm going to pretend it was just the sand and you were cold.  I love pictures of you crying though!! I personally love your name.

You hated the sand, but you can't really tell in this picture. Again, I think it was cold and you just didn't like it. We'll wait for the day to be warmer and Mommy will take you back out for some sand fun. Too bad the sand isn't really sand.. Otherwise we could build fun stuff in it. Anyway... Here is another one

You didn't like the sand, you didn't like the grass, you didn't like the concrete. You just wanted to be held. It was just one of those days.

So we gave you a Baby Mum-Mum (AKA COOKIE) to cheer you up a bit. It worked for a while.

As Always, Daddy was able to cheer you up with his famous Airplane ride that he gives you. Pretty much all the time. We do this when you are getting a diaper change or when we need your mood to change.. QUICK. It works...

Before you melted down into a pit of the unhappy baby you became yesterday. We did manage to get some good pictures.

 OH! And you wave now. But you do it backwards.We don't mind though. Its a combination of the sign that you do for "MILK" and a wave. We're working on it, but we know what you mean. You were waving in this picture. I'm glad we caught it. It was an accident, but you gotta take what you can get.

As Always, I love them. Oh.. Did you notice Mommy's new haircut? Yep.. All Because of you!! My little boy likes to pull my hair, so I had to chop it off! I think it makes me look younger, and skinny. Well.. A Mommy can dream right?
