Mississippi week one! We've been doing well trying to figure out our routine. I must say it is wonderful to have chris come home everynight, its great to have the opportunity to share the baby and the responsibilities everynight. Ok well i've just been excited to cook dinner with out worrying about what jake is doing.
The weekend before we left we had a great time camping with my family up north, grandma helped out alot and i was able to relax in the water, and around the campfire, pinyata, and just with adults! I must say camping with a newborn wasn't too bad, we were lucky to have good weather, and a nice big tent.
Jake has been smiling and laughing alot more these days, its so much fun to really be able to play with him now. He's growing so fast, at his 5 week appointment he was 9lb 4 oz, and since they said he is gaining about an ounce a day, so he could be over 10 lb now! 
Last weekend we drove an hour south to Starksville, home of Mississippi State - trying to find something fun to do - we found a couple of places to stop and enjoy the new senery and the home of Tennesee Williams, but nothing too exciting to visit again. We also stopped in Columbus another town advertised as something fun but really its just another Columbus that we don't care too much for! Must be in the name.
Jake really likes to nap on his belly, butt up in the air! He also has been conviced to like the sling every once in a while! Thank you Joc, and Britta!
