Play Day with Jack!

Ben and I were both off of work today.  Aside from a TON of errands and the five poopy diapers this morning (he usually only poops every other day - so thanks for the plums, Ida!), we had lots of time to give Jack love and attention.

Galloping - an easy game for me to play and a nice alternative to the wretched tummy time.

Rocket - Ben makes better sound effects than me.  His rides also last longer than mine.

Jumper - Still too young to enjoy the jumper.  He used it just to do some freestyle standing, which was mildly entertaining for him.  (The sheepskin serves as an impromptu floor pad because carpet tacks poke through on the threshold.)

Wrist Rattles - Grandma Betty sent over rattles that attach to his arms and legs.  He immediately wanted it in his mouth, but couldn't quite figure out the physics that it would require.

Sock rattles - Not wanting to overwhelm him, we did hands and feet separately.  This was close to his bedtime, so his play was not very enthusiastic, but he got a good handle on reaching for these bugs.

(If you are counting outfit changes due to various fluids today, the answer is SIX for Jack plus two for me and Ben each)

PS: Ben wants the world to know that we got an awesome new modem called a Deugaster or something, and it gets 25 megabitso thingies speed.  Apparently this is hella fast and he immediately called his boyfriends to brag.  They were duly impressed.
