Baby Friends

You may be wondering what Jeremy does with his days. He has lots of time to explore the world as a 8 month old.

Jeremy goes on lots of adventures; to the park, playground, local market, and his favorite, baby stores. He's also pretty busy playing in his jumper or with his ball and blocks. Plus, he loves reading and dancing when his favorite song comes on the IPOD. Friday he works out at swim time. As you can see he's getting quite buff.









To balance out all these activities Jeremy has a bit of a baby beauty regime. His three naps a day allow him to rejuvinate because as you can imagine, it takes a lot of energy to be so cute. Of course his facials help maintain his soft, kissable skin. And his nightly baby massage relaxes him before his 11 hours of sleep.

Finally, Jeremy has a social calendar to maintain as well. He has met a lot of baby friends and has quite a network. Last weekend he enjoyed hanging out with his buddies, Sienna, Natasha, Kristoffer, and Kaimana. Everyone showed off their latest talents, from crawling, to playing the drums, to knawing on a chicken bone. There was lots of "talking" going on too. Probably about their wonderful parents.

Here comes Peter Cottontail...

Jeremy enjoyed his first Easter in socal. The weather was amazing so Jeremy lounged about in his summer clothes showing off his toned arms and legs.
The Easter Bunny (aka Grandma and Grandpa) gave Jeremy lots of treats! His basket was filled with toys, candy (for mom and dad), books, and clothes.

Jeremy loved the tradition of the Easter egg hunt. He and Dad found lots of eggs at Aunt Kate's. Of course Jeremy had to taste each and every egg he came across. There was money in most of them, but he was content just playing with the egg. Isn't childhood bliss!
He hung out with his cousin, Chloe. Chloe is already 2 so she knew the ropes of finding all the eggs. In the end Jeremy was content just to sit back and watch everyone with Grandma and Grandpa.

We also spent time with family friends Rick, Lori, and Kelly. Jeremy fell in love with Kelly. I think he has a new girlfriend and misses her already.






He also met Zadie, Kate and Tori's little girl. Kate and Tori are Peace Corps alum just like John, so maybe Zadie and Jeremy will volunteer together someday. We had the best time hanging out with them at the park. We wished we lived closer!
