First of all, let me tell everyone that you should not get internet service with BellSouth. It seems as if I can’t go 2 months without something going wrong with my service. Anyway, on to the baby. His development is really starting to speed up. He is starting to control his movements a lot better. He is controlling is kicks a little better, and that makes them harder. He can also swing his arms in general directions now. He can swing at our faces now with one arm, and usually hit us. Of course, this leads us to an important stage in his life. Over xmas he got several of those play gyms and mats and the like. His cousin Terri gave us one that all 3 of us like. It helps him with his arm swinging. He also has one that he kicks, and he just loves the way it feels. In the world we currently live in, you can’t buy a toy for a baby that doesn’t light up or make noise. All of his toys make music or sing the alphabet, or teach colors, or count, or some other racket. It gets him pretty happy, but it really interferes with me watching the playoffs.
He had such a good weekend with his toys, that he has started to smile. He saved his biggest smile for Sunday morning. I was sleeping late with him in the room. His mother was on the other side of the house with the baby monitor turned off. If the baby needed something, I would have heard him cry. Well, after being out of the room for a little while, his mother comes in to check on him. He has a smile across his face and vomit on his face, bed, and clothes. We will never know how long he was lying in his vomit, but he didn’t seem to mind as he didn’t bother to tell us. His mother did not smile. Jordan has an appointment with the pulmonolgist this Friday, so everyone keep their fingers crossed.

Your mission, should you choose to accept it: Get some pictures of him smiling. Post them to the blog. Or email them to me. As soon as possible. Successful completion of this challenge will result in undying appreciation from Jordan's adoring public. As always, should you decide to accept this mission, I and the entire Ringer household will deny any knowledge of your involvement. Good Luck, Agent Ali.

I just saw a pic of him in jeans and a brown t-shirt with a hat to match sitting on Mom's lap. I don't know if it's the outfit, the "just chillin' " pose or what but if he'd been sitting on your lap, Big Ali, I'd have sworn he was watching football, about to reach for the remote. I'd frozen him in my mind as the same baby I'd seen at Christmas, but every new picture amazes me a how fast he's growing! I know they're stills but he looks like he's holding his head pretty solid now...
