Vanilla Ice, Final Four and Opening Day!







While Daddy and his UCONN buddies got together to watch the final four Jack and I headed to RI. We felt this was the "safest" place for us and it gave Daddy a chance to have a guys night and participate in some shenanigans with his friends while we were away. We were able to attend the 2009 Dancing with the Senior Stars at the high school and watch Uncle Mike. This is a program where seniors that are interested ask a teacher to join them as a partner and perform a routine. There were 12 teams that competed. It was very loud and that scared Jack at first. He is just not used to being around so many people and so many screaming high school girls! :) Mike put on an amazing performance with his homeroom teacher from 9th grade (Ms. Catenzaro). They danced to compilation of Ice Ice Baby and Funk Soul Brother. Mike blew us all away with his hidden dance skills! They came in second place (even though WE felt they should have been first!). All in all Mike said it was a REALLY fun experience and he was sort of sad that it was over. Here is the link for the performance on You Tube:












On Sunday we added bananas to Jack's rice cereal and he gobbled it right up. We couldn't get the spoon in his mouth fast enough!! We also started giving him the cereal in the morning too since he likes it so much. So far so good!






Today we are getting ready to watch the Red Sox Opening Day game! It will be Jack's first Red Sox Game and we can't wait to introduce him to something we both love so much! Grammy bought him his first Red Sox hat and he even posed a little in it for us! Jack get ready to be immersed in Red Sox Nation! Jerry Remy and Don Orsillo will be voices you will soon recognize. I bet Daddy even gets you listening to WEEI in the car :).






We continue to work with Jack everyday with sitting in his Bumbo to build his back strength for sitting (eventually) and on rolling over. He is pretty good at going from belly to back and is about 80% with going from back to belly. If we hold his bink in front of him, he reaches out for it and can put it in his mouth! He is getting SOOO big! :)
