Wah-Wah Street

I took this photo when Jasper wasn't yet 3 months old. He was fitting into this 6mo onesie his daddy bought on a business trip back to Kalamazoo. We had just returned from a walk in the neighborhood, and yes it was February.
The similarities and differences between Jasper then and now (two weeks ago - see below) we think are pretty fun to see. For one, he loves chill-axing in his stroller and generally rides with one leg up on the bar. Sadly, he no longer fits into that hat. "Look at the size of 'is head!" I don't think he stands a chance of having a small head with the noggins both his daddy and his Papa J have. He's gettin' it from both sides.

You'll notice below that Jasper is very animated. He has become much more expressive these days. He especially loves squealing now. He'll open his mouth as w-i-d-e as he possibly can and squeal until he coughs as if he's nearly about to choke. It's the funniest thing. I don't know what has prompted it now - unless he's figured out that opening his mouth wide like that can alleviate ear pain ... ear pain associated with teething that is.

Thankfully Jasper likes going for walks. He just chillaxes the whole time, looks around and listens to Jack. :) He also wears his sunglasses. I know we have a cute kid, but never in my wildest dreams did I think the #1 reason people stop to look at him is because of those glasses. However - it's the truth. They are show stoppers. We were at Rudy's on Sunday, and I was speaking with the manager about Gladys Hardy t-shirts & the Rudy's radio commercials with Gladys, and Drew said no fewer than 5 couples stopped to look at Jasper wearing his sunglasses.
