Fun with Boo!

We've been having a lot of fun with our little boo man lately.  One of the most exciting things is rolling over - from front to back.  He's done it a couple of times now but wouldn't you know, the one time i get my video camera ready he rolls over in a new direction and smacks his head on the hard wood floor!  I, of course, got it on video but feel like a terrible mother so i will not be posting it.
Jakson also loves to stand up!  With support, of course, but he just loves to straighten his legs and show us just how strong they are.  It's pretty awesome to watch.  I need to get a video of it...

Another thing worth reporting is that Jakson certainly has a taste for anything and everything he can get in his mouth!  He is often found stuffing his hands in his mouth, or shoving toys in his face.  It's quite amusing to watch as he makes a lot of funny snorting noises while he does it.  He's also become a serious drooler!!  I really hope he isn't teething yet!! 

Here are a couple of playtime pics along with a video of a tame play session where he's wagging his tounge and trying to shove one of his toys in:




Jakson and I have also been enjoying nap time together.  I just love cuddling with him and we often lay in bed, cuddling and fall asleep together.  It's awesome.  I just hope it's not establishing bad habits.  But, to be fair, we're on week 2 of the bedtime routine and he's doing brilliantly.  Bath starts at 7, followed by a kick around on his changing mat, some cuddling, maybe a book (if he's not too fussy), a feed and then bed.  Last night he was actually asleep in his cot by 730 and slept until 230 am!  And that was about the 3rd or 4th time in the last few weeks that he's slept for a long period like that.  I just hope it continues!!  Here is a shot of daddy reading to Jakson before bed:


And the wee man still loves his bath.  Here is a pic with his new mate, Sharky (thanks, Leah!):
