Roll Over!!!

Jett is right on target for all those milestones that i said i would never pay attention too. I said that my baby could grow and develop at whatever pace he wanted and i wouldn't panic. Of course, a few weeks ago i found my self concerned and obsessed with the fact that Jett had yet to roll-over. Then, out of nowhere he just did. I put him down for some belly time. He rolled over so effortlessly that i almost didn't notice. I thought it was a fluke so i rolled him onto his belly and sure enough, he rolled over 3 more times as if he had been doing it forever. He looked at me as though there was absolutely no reason for me to be so excited.... i was anyway.

Big Hopes for Two Boys

It has been a big week. A new little human came into the world. His name is Oren Malaya Woodson and he is Jett's cousin. This is his most important identity. Yes, of course he is Neva's little brother, Milo and Leilani's son, Sabina and Steve's Grandson, Todd's nephew, etc... all of which cannot be minimized. However, I expect that I will explain their relationship as cousins over any of these.

Oren and Jett will no doubt be forced into being playmates. My hope is that they are best friends and keep one another out of as much trouble as they get into. I hope they stand by each other indefinitely. I hope they share common interests, but keep their uniqueness. I hope they rough each other up and follow it up with a hug. I hope they are competitive with one another, but also an unbeatable team.

Oren and Jett... i love you both. I can only hope you love one another us much!
