Oh BiBaby and Sniffa ..... (major dial-up warning!)

[LaraMN]

BiBaby and Sniffa went to the aquarium and picked up a little surprise for JackMN (the consummate whale lover.) He was very excited to get a package in the mail!

Initially, he enjoyed the packaging;


Here, he is in the midst of exclaiming, "ohhh! ohhhh!"


SophieMN wants to see the whale, but Jack doesn't feel like sharing


He climbed into the box it came in, and had a love-fest with the whale, kissing it repeatedly, and rubbing its nose.




He tried out the bag from the aquarium, as well


A bonus: NoelMN's new floor (which he and I installed the bulk of!) The baseboards aren't done yet.

1. The Jack-in-the-box photo is precious.

It's so sweet the way he's looking straight into the face of his new whale buddy.

[LaraMN]

2. He does a sign-language song involving fish and a whale,

and he loooves the whale part; particularly because the whale "burps" at the end of the song.
:P

[sniffa]

3. eek!!

:loveya:

:bounce:

so gLad he Like it. thank you for the pics. :hug:

[LaraMN]

6. He loves it!

I wish I could have videotaped the opening; he kept saying, "ohhhhh! ohhhhh!"
He keeps calling it his "burp".
It was so sweet of you guys to think of him!
:loveya:

[Zuiderelle]

4. Great pictures, how sweet!

awwwwwww

[LaraMN]

8. He gets VERY excited about presents,

and he loves stuffed animals (as well as live ones).

[merh]

5. those are great photos

and such a lovely, sweet gift - you can see he is thrilled with it.

The floor looks wonderful, you and Noel should be so proud.

thanks for posting the photos, they made me smile

[LaraMN]

9. I'm glad you like them!

It's been hard to get any pictures of him with his eyes open, lately; he anticipates the flash and blinks.
He was sufficiently distracted by the excitement of opening a present, this time, so I didn't end up with a ton of squinty-eye pics!

7. Almost unbearably cute

:D

Thanks for sharing.

[LaraMN]

10. I've been unable to recycle the box,

because he's been using it as a sitting-spot for several days.
He's such a weirdo!

[eyepaddle]

11. Oh, that was so sweet it is gonna

give us all an increased risk for tooth decay!

Thaks for sharing, I needed the smile. :)

[LaraMN]

14. You're welcome!

I'm always happy to share gratuitous kid pics!

[bicentennial_baby]

12. OMG! Eeeeeek!

:bounce: Yay! My favorite is the one in the box :rofl:

OMG....You just made my day!

:loveya:

[LaraMN]

15. Lol!

:loveya:

I'm happy to oblige.

On a sidenote, while I was posting this, Sophie "did" Jack's hair. He has a bunch of glitter barrettes in it, and he's quite pleased with his look.

:7

[bicentennial_baby]

16. I sincerely hope you took a pic!

:rofl:

[LaraMN]

18. I can't- no room on my memory card!

:banghead:

There will inevitably be many other opportunities, though. Jack will see to that.

[AlCzervik]

13. That box is awesome! He is too sweet for words. Love that hamper btw, i want one.

[LaraMN]

17. Thanks- we've had an issue with Jack and our clothes hamper.

He's seen us throw clothes in it, and he thinks it's the same thing as our kitchen garbage, so he's been taking off his dirty clothes and throwing them in the garbage.

:rofl:

[JackBeck]

19. What a sweet gift!

And your son has the coolest name on the planet.

Thanks for sharing the pics.

[wildhorses]

20. too cool, thanks for sharing

i see progress is being made in the house:loveya:

:hi:

[Midlodemocrat]

21. If he were any sweeter, looking at him would give me diabetes.

He's adorable.

[billyskank]

22. I want to go sliding on that floor.

:D

[SeattleGirl]

23. OMG! Those pictures are so cute!!!!

Especially the one with Jack-in-the-box! :loveya: :hi:

[swimboy]

24. What a great and lovely thing

from all the parties involved! Thanks for sharing all that! They are all good but the box shot takes first prize. :grouphug:

[dropkickpa]

25. Awww, he's adorable!!

I bet he's getting just as much enjoyment out of the box as the whale!

I have to sneak cardboard boxes out at night because Dropkid pitches a fit when i try to get rid of them "But I can USE that!"

[bicentennial_baby]

26. Kick for Jack's awesomeness!

:bounce:

[sniffa]

27. i can't get enough of jack

:loveya:

[BarenakedLady]

28. Wow!

How sweet! Great pics. Thanks for sharing.

:loveya:

[SKKY]

29. Here's a Kick for Jack and his whale...

[sniffa]

30. he named it "burp"

:rofl:

[LaraMN]

31. It's part of his "slippery fish" song.

At the end, the whale eats the shark (who ate all the smaller fish), and then he burps. Jack loves that part.
That's how he learned to sign "pardon me.":P

[sniffa]

32. i just have to say once again

EEEEEK!!!! :loveya:

does he use the "pardon me" sign often?

[LaraMN]

33. When he burps he uses it.

When he passes *other* things, he just laughs. and claps.:eyes:

[LostinVA]

35. That's so cute!

[applegrove]

34. What a cutie!

[Karenca]

36. JackMN kissing the whale and rubbing noses with it.....

is one of the cutest pics I have ever seen.
He's just precious :loveya:

[YellowRubberDuckie]

37. What a cute kid!!

I'm sure you have a ton of fun with him!
