Jamison week 20

This was an exciting week for Jamison. It was the last week she stayed at home before heading to daycare (or baby school as Jessica calls its). She took advantage of all of the time she had at home. She played with some new toys this week. One of them was a big, soft flower that she likes to shove in her mouth.



The other was a giraffe that she seems to be fascinated by.






She also sat in front of her bear and played with it too.



She continues to play in her activity center and plays with the toys more and more.



And, she sits on the couch and plays with toys for longer periods of time now.



Jamison tolerated tummy time a bit this week too.



And, she worked on sitting up by staying in her boppy.




She has become very noisy over the past few weeks. She likes to chat all the time now.




And, she blows raspberries quiet a bit.






We brought out the highchair for Jamison so that she could join us at the dinner table.




And, this is what happens when you ask Jessica to get Jamison a toy.



Evidently, Jamison likes lots of toys and she wanted the whole bucket of them according to Jessica. I personally like the mirror perched on top of Jamison's head.

Jamison week 19

Jamison was all smiles this week.





She's also developed an obsession with her feet and hands. They seem to be her favorite "toys" at the moment.



Her new trick for the week is blowing raspberries.





And, once again, she likes to pose for the camera with her sister.

Jamison's first swing ride

Jamison took her first swing ride this weekend in the backyard.



She seemed to be more interested in chewing her hand than actually swinging though.

a foggy day at the zoo

This past weekend we took the girls to the zoo.



It was Jamison's first time riding in the stroller upright (I figured it was better for looking around). Jessica thought this was great and Jamison seemed to enjoy it too.



Jamison also enjoyed the animals from the Baby Bjorn.



Jessica had fun climbing and lounging on the animal statues.





Most of the animals were lounging around too.




Before we left, Jessica and I had fun riding the carousel.

Jamison weeks 17 and 18

It's been a busy few weeks for Jamison. She went to Disneyland for the first time and then spent a few days getting over a cold. So, she didn't have too much time to hang around and play. But, when she did, she enjoyed being in her activity center. It is one of her favorite activities.



She also liked to play with her toys while sitting on the couch.



And, sometimes, she even liked to spend some time on her tummy.



She had a first too while in Disneyland as she sat in a highchair for the first time.



And, as usual, she enjoyed spending time with her sister.

Photo Shoot: Jamison 4 months, Jessica 3 years 3 months

Here are some pictures that we took of Jessica and Jamison this weekend.









Halloween Trick-or-Treating

Last night, Jessica and Jamison went trick-or-treating with her friends Isabella and Benjamin. Jessica dressed up as Sleeping Beauty with her almost straight her (it started to curl almost immediately).



Here are Jessica and Isabella before we went trick-or-treating.



And, Jessica helped Jamison pose for the camera. Jamison dressed up as Belle.



Jessica and Isabella were quite eager to get candy. We had to trade off who got to ring the doorbell/get candy first in order to prevent shoving and pushing.



And, luckily, we trick-or-treated amongst Giants fans. We got score updates all throughout the night. Go Giants!

Jessica gets Sleeping Beauty hair for Halloween

This year, Jessica dressed up as Sleeping Beauty for Halloween. We thought we would have fun with her and give her Sleeping Beauty hair. She was very excited to have Sleeping Beauty hair, but didn't know how we were going to do it because her hair is short according to her. Well, we know that it isn't and a little blow drying and straightening gave her nice, long Sleeping Beauty Hair.

Here we were working on the hairdo.



And, here was the final product.



She had to get up every second and run to the mirror to check out her hair. She had fun whipping it around as she danced too. And, she is asking for long hair again. Not until next Halloween though!

Jessica Goes to Greyson's 4th Birthday Party

This weekend, Jessica went to Greyson's 4th birthday party at Pump It Up. She had lots of fun going down the slides.



She even roped the rest of us into going down the slide with her (Jamison included).





She had fun playing on the rest of the toys too.





While Jessica played, Jamison enjoyed the party from the comfort of her Baby Bjorn.



And, here is Jessica looking cute and waiting for ice cream cake!

Carving Pumpkins

Friday night we carved pumpkins. As soon as we started, Jessica decided that they were both smelly and gross and wanted nothing to do with scooping out the pumpkins.



While we carved faces into the pumpkins, Jessica poked holes in them. Jamison sat by and slept through the whole process.



By the end of pumpkin carving, Jamison had woken up and was ready to pose with Jessica and our pumpkins.

Harvest Festival at Jessica's School

This past Thursday was the Harvest Festival at Jessica's school. She went as Sleeping Beauty and then got her face painted as a butterfly.



She spent most of the night swinging on the swings.
