Life with Jag

Life has been different since Jag's arrival to say the least. This little boy sure is a handful. He is funny, mischievous (yes, our newborn is a trouble maker), opinionated, and stubborn...I guess he really is our kid! When we have little chats with him in the morning he smiles and coos and arches his eyebrows in response. He likes to smile and squawk when Craig says funny things about me. He yells and bats his hand at my face when he wants eye contact and my attention is somewhere else. 

This little guy may be all smiles in the morning (he gets that from Craig-I'm pretty much evil in the morning), but he has plenty of what we refer to as "Jag Rage"...and let me tell you this kid can scream!

 Along with the screaming comes some pretty funny faces...

and some really sweet moments...

and of course some fun!

See those gloves on his mitts? Those are our only line of defense against his Freddy Krueger  hands! There is no clipping or filing his nails and when he gets angry and starts flailing no one is safe from those things (not even himself)! As hard as this past month has been, I am already dreading having to go back to work in the fall.  I love being this little man's momma and I don't want to miss a moment! I mean he is only six weeks old and he is already trying to roll over (he can quite figure out how to get the shoulders over yet), I can't even begin to imagine how much he is going to learn in the next 11 months!
