For Christmas Aunt Mimi and Uncle David gave Jack a little music kit that came with this red scarf. We made many a joke that day about how the scarf only seemed to have a place in the rainbow-themed kit if the kit were meant to turn little Jack into a musical drag queen.
Jack never paid much attention to the scarf until tonight when he re-discovered it in his toy basket and insisted on running up and down the hallway squealing with delight. It just happened to be a night when we had him in his pink cloth diaper cover. (His fashionable Papaw wears manly pink button downs, so we figured we shouldn't care that a quality diaper cover at a clearance price only came in pink.)
We just love the boy, so even if he insists on red scarves and pink underwear for the rest of his life, it will not bother us as long as he remains the beautiful, happy little soul that he is.

Every night before his bath, we have Naked Baby Playtime at the Basham Chamblee home (the last hurrah before he goes Night Night). Jack runs around in his underwear like a maniac while we chase him. Usually he gets a lot crazier (and far more giggly) than shown in this video, but it's still pretty illustrative of the cute and happy kid that is Jack.
Mama helped Jack make this Valentine for Daddy, featuring Sweet Pea's first ever artwork.
Lately Jack often entertains himself (and us) by wiggling his fingers against his lip to make the cutest little bbbbbbb... noise.
...check out the Kidport near the A-gates. Jack especially loved the kiddie airplane.
Jack didn't really get to play in the New England snow. He and Daniel napped through when it was fluffy and pretty. By the next day, what looked like snow was really a sheet of ice. We borrowed Daniel's snowsuit, took the requisite picture, and then went back inside where it was warm.
Jack's like Daddy, though. He loves the cold.
Mama and Jack had a great time in Salem, MA, with Auntie Kim, Uncle Pedro, and little Daniel. Jack got a little jealous whenever Mama cuddled Daniel, so he made sure to demand lots of short bouts of nursing. He seemed to think he should assert himself as the master and commander of Mama's love (and her bosom).
Yes, in the first shot he is about to smack Danielito in the back of the head. Thankfully, his smack doesn't pack much punch.
