Baby Dancing


Jaden can now pull himself up into a standing position. He often does this in the tub, when he's taking a bath or when he's next to his little table. He holds himself up really well and can stay standing for a long time. His table has all sorts of buttons you press to hear songs or sounds and he has a great time banging on all the buttons.

He is a dancer! He loves to move to the music and bop his body up and down. It is so cute to watch him get excited and to see him move.

Jaden is not crawling yet but manages to get himself into all sorts of funny positions. Sometimes his legs will get stuck under the couch and he'll stay there and cry until I come rescue him. Very often we'll find him all the way across the room from where we first put him. We don't know how he is able to wiggle his way so far without being able to crawl or walk. It is amazing.

He can turn around, flip over (usually by accident), and get on all fours and then back into a sitting position. He is getting stronger but still loves to be held and cuddled. He is as darling as ever and getting cuter as he gets older and chubbier.

Jaden has the chunkiest thighs and I often squeeze them, which makes him laugh. He is now wearing size 5 diapers! This astonishes my friends, who still have their babies in size 3 and 4 even though their babies are the same age as Jaden. He's got the big Binning butt!

We had a lovely visit with the Grandparents recently (both sets). Around the same time we had a little bit of a health scare. One day as I was playing with Jaden I noticed his right chest was a little red and I also felt a lump. Naturally this was very alarming and I tried not to panic as I called the pediatrician. When we went to visit her the next day she said it was a very common occurence for nursing babies and to not worry. Whew! I was so afraid it was something terrible.

Luckily Jaden doesn't mind being kissed and sometimes when I kiss him on the neck he'll throw his head back, close his eyes, and smile blissfully. It is so cute!


Jaden and Ah Ma.


Look at that angelic face!


Mmmm, yummy!


Jaden loves goofing off with Daddy.


Say, "Cheese!"


Jaden wouldn't hold still for the picture until we gave him the brush. Here he is with Grandma and Grandpa. Thanks for coming to visit!



Throwing his head back with laughter. He is the happiest baby on the block!

Oh my gosh, he is cute! And he looks like he has so much fun with Terry. Do you have Skype, Michelle? I want to see him in real life.

He's such a smiley guy. I love when babies dance.
