Whenever we see someone who hasn’t seen Boston in a while, one of the first things they tell us is “Wow, he’s grown! It looks like he just went on a growth spurt or something!” Of course, Jessica and I don’t see big changes in his size/appearance like other people because we see him every day. However, when he starts to do new things, we start to notice the overall changes in him.

Boston has started to “talk” a lot lately. He just blabbers on and on, but one thing we’ve noticed him saying is “Dada”. Now I’m sure he probably isn’t saying that on purpose (he’s 150% mama’s boy), but he’s saying it nonetheless. He gets excited when he see’s me, and usually starts kicking his legs and flapping his arms up and down… but that’s nothing compared to how he acts when Jessica is around. He looks at her like she’s the most awesome person in the world (and she’s pretty awesome, but I don’t if she’s THAT awesome)… He smiles at her like nobody else. And she spoils him, too!

He’s been rolling over for a long while, but he usually throws up after he rolls over onto his belly, so we are reluctant to let him stay like that for long. So I got to thinking about how he likes to kick his legs, and he’s been pulling himself upright, so maybe he’d like to get in one of Meck’s toys and give it a try. Sure enough, the boy went nuts in that thing. His feet barely touched the carpet, yet he managed to get around that table twice!! I couldn’t believe it! Alissa recorded him going around it while she was watching him one day, so I’ll get that video on here as soon as she gets it to me.

I was just telling a couple of friends today about how much of a blessing Boston has been to us. We worried so much during the time Jessica was pregnant with him, yet the little guy came out with this wonderful personality (and later an infectuous smile) which completely nullified the worrying we had needlessly done for so many months. I look forward to seeing him every day.

I purposely didn’t mention America much in this post, and the reason for that is because I want everyone to get to know as much about our little guy as we have made known about America over the last 1.5 years. If you haven’t met this little man, you’re really missing out! I love my little boy!
