This was Jack's first boat ride! But it's great because you can really see how perfectly glassy the water is on a Fall morning! Heavenly!

"He's Wearing Tan Shoes With Pink Shoe Laces..."
Jack's Aunt Jen gave him this adorable Gymboree outfit with matching shoes! And before he grows out of it and it gets too cold, I had to dress him up for a lunch outting! I had to practically shoove his feet in these shoes! They were almost too tight. So here are some pictures with chubby legs!

First Taste of Cereal
So Jack is officially 4 months old as of October 15th! He weighs 15.5lbs (75th Percentile) and is 26 inches long (90th percentile)! He is growing like a weed! But a handsome weed at that! So I was so excited to try solids with him, just to see his reaction. In NO WAY is this substituting for breast milk but I just thought it would be fun to try.
He didn't fuss too much but mainly I think he was fussing because he doesn't like sitting in the bumbo for long. I can't wait until he is just taking spoonfuls of this stuff!

Sleeping in Stripes!
Old Navy has the cutest stripped one pieces. I just love them!! They are soft too! The navy and green stripped one is AJ's favorite!

Tacky Outfits
When picking out clothes and telling people what to buy Jack, I always made sure to mention not to buy clothes with any sayings on them. Well, I happen to be at Walmart and found for $2 this out fit and the other one I showed him in that read "Born Awesome." I just couldn't resist the price.
So in all fun, here is Jack in another tacky saying outfit that I thought was funny with his arm over his head and the other hand on his hip like he's showing off!

The Lake House
For vacation this year, our first one with Jack, we decided to go to Lake Anna, Virgina. For those of you who don't know where that is, it was the central location of the earthquake that occured in August. Every October we typically go to OBX but this year we stuck closer to home with only a 2 hr drive away.
We had our own beach front and 2 acres of land to play on and just beautiful trees to admire through the mist coming off the water gleaming in the morning sun! Breathtaking!
Here we are going hiking, Jack fell asleep shortly after this moment...
Here are the 3 youngest cousins on my side of the family! From left to right, Charlotte (1.5 yrs old), Camden (5months old), and Jack (3.5 mths old).
My Father rented a pontoon boat for 2 days and we all enjoyed the ride!
This was the view of the backyard from the house. There is a huge fire pitt right next to the water and a beach front. Such privacy!
This is the view of the back of the house, from the water. 4,000 sqft!
2 Daddies and their newest babies!
Cousins looking in on Jack's play time. Charlotte tried all week to get onto that play mat! I think she misses being the baby herself!
A Barrick Baby (Camden) and a Bachmann baby (Jack) practicing their "Top Gun" high-five!
Mary Claire was SO brave and got in the water the most out of everyone that week!
Hiking at Lake Anna State Park!
AJ's Father let us barrow his dinggy for the week! It was a huge hit for the kids! Uncle AJ was the favorite, as always!
The adults and their babies!
The Mom's and their new babies!
The boys and Holly came to join us for the weekend, so Jack had even more cousins to oogle him!
The Lake Anna Crew!
Daddy got his baby bear to sleep on a walk in the woods!

Teething!
Jack has been drooling a lot for the past 2 months! But just this past week, while we were on vacation he has started to grab and put things in his mouth! He isn't chomping down too hard yet but I'm sure that's coming soon!
I'm going to try and get more pictures of all he teethers he's enjoying but this one is like a foot and was just hanging in his mouth so I had to grab my phone and get a picture to send to AJ!
