Sitting Pretty

About a month ago Isaac began leaning forward when in a reclined position in his car seat or bouncer. He wasn’t reaching for anything per se but was simply trying to sit up. Propping pillows behind him for support, he eventually ends up slumped to one side or sliding all the way down until he [...]

Isaac’s Back on Track

Seems like Isaac has finally gotten over most of his illness. We had one cold after another there for a while, which was really screwing up his eating and sleeping. But now he seems to be back to sleeping through the night. And we’ve really ramped up on the solid foods. So far Mr. J. [...]

Daddy in Charge

Last Friday Blossom went off to her office holiday party, and I was left in charge of Mr. J. It’s not often that I am running the show by myself, so I was a little nervous about taking care of him. But we made out all right.

Waltzing J

At last I’ve got all my videos moved over to Vimeo. And to celebrate, here’s Mr. J. learning to dance.

Latkes and a Trim

Last weekend Brian and I had badly butchered Isaac’s long, thin hair in an attempt to trim it. To rectify this situation, I had planned to take Isaac later that day for a professional cut. Instead, Brian and I had lunch with our friends Mike and Debbie. On the menu was chicken soup, a non-traditional [...]

Mr. Snuffles

Plague has struck the house of Jamieson! Isaac is still going to daycare two days a week, and daycare is still a cesspit of diseased munchkins. Friday Mr. J. was getting fussy and sounding pretty stuffy, and by the end of the day he had become Mr. Sunffles. Poor little guy had trouble sleeping, and [...]

Ten Minute Window

Mr. J. is mercurial of mood. He’s only good for about ten to fifteen minutes on any given activity, and then he starts to get fussy. So we have to change venues often. Yesterday afternoon Blossom caught him at the beginning of a playful mood, so we grabbed some video.

A More Substantial Breakfast

At the last visit to the pediatrician Blossom found out that you can start solids at four months. So she bought some bowls and spoons and a big bucket of rice cereal. I had never seen this stuff before; apparently all you do is mix it w/ formula. Sunday morning we decided to give it [...]

Mr. J.’s New Exersaucer

We got a new toy! Blossom tracked down an exersaucer on the Craig’s List, sterilized the hell out of it, and set it up in our dinning room. Now Mr. J. has a whole ring of toys to amuse him for 10-15 minutes before his interest wanes.
Note this was shot on the crappy camera, and [...]

Halloween 2007

Hooray our first Halloween together. Halloween is Blossom’s birthday, so we usually do birthday stuff to avoid the tricker treaters (evil, no?). But this year we had to switch around and have fun with the boy. Blossom made him a super cute monkey costume. That’s right, she made it herself. No store bought flammable vinyl [...]
