Ultrasound Pictures

Check out the new ultrasound pictures!

I'm cross-posting today, but I probably won't always do that. So, to keep up with the Sjolander team, you're going to have to start checking two blogs. Of course, you could subscribe to them, which would make things easier. Email me and I'll give you details about how that works.

"Dada"

Jack said his first word yesterday! He had just woken up from his morning nap, and I put him on the changing table. He looked up at me, smiled and said very clearly "Dada". At first I thought it wasn't on purpose, until he did it two more times that day. So, it's been a big week for the little guy!

First Steps!

Jack took his first steps at 5:05 PM today! He picked up a toy from the coffee table, walked two steps to his mother, who was sitting on the couch, and dropped the toy in her lap. It was maybe 10 minutes after I commented "He's getting so good at walking [with one of us holding his hands]. He'll be walking on his own any day now." I'm glad to see he was paying attention.

And now, a random picture:

Here's the before:


And the after:
