Trip to WV

JP and I took a brief trip to West Virginia to visit family. It was the first time all 5 Palmer children were together since our wedding over 6 1/2 years ago! It was great to have everyone together and all the grandkids running around (sans Alicia, our Buckeye).

I took a ton of pictures and I haven't had a chance to edit any yet, but I'll throw a couple up right now anyway.

Rollin' Rollin' Rollin'

JP has been rolling from belly to back since he was 9 days old. Today he rolled from back to belly! He has been sleeping on his side for a while now, but never completely made it to his belly on his own. He gets his whole body rolled over but his left arm gets stuck under him. Today he pulled that left arm out and was flat on his belly!! We're so proud!!

I'm trying to catch it on video...stay tuned :)

5 Months Old

It's so hard for me to believe my baby is 5 months old. He's becoming more and more of a "person" each day with his own little personality. He's very laid back and loves to smile and laugh - rarely cries for no reason. He's such a happy little boy. I never imagined I would love being a mommy this much!!!

If I could just skip the whole pregnancy part, I think I'd have a dozen little JPs!!!!

Here he is at 5 months :)

Go Boston College!

Daddy bought JP his first BC shirt and he proudly wore it while BC beat FSU tonight. He only spit up on it a tiny bit :)

BEST Toy So Far

JP loves his jumperoo. He enjoys being upright and able to bounce around on his own. It's so funny to watch. He'll babble to himself, squeal, laugh and stop to watch the dogs. I bought this on craigslist for $45! I highly recommend it!



He really wore himself out...



P.S. The little man had his SECOND haircut yesterday!!! It was already about an inch past his ears again!!! Two haircuts before five months!
