Big Sitter

Now that Jackson is sitting up very well on his own, we tried a new shopping method with him in the front of the cart. 
 No smiles here, it's all business in Costco.
So our lessons learned are the following: 
1. Bring a back up baby-carrying method. Jack loved to be up with Mommy for a while, but got really tired and wanted to sleep near the end of the trip, so that was kind of a disaster because I was trying to unload the cart onto the conveyor belt and pay and hold him. Yikes!
2. Costco shopping carts are made for 2 kids to sit up front, so my cute little cart cover doesn't line up with the correct leg holes and straps for baby. I had to do some interpretive strapping to get him securely in there and still get to debut my little germ-cover-thing.


We also pulled a fun 6 mo + toy from the garage that was a gift from Dan's cousin Sarah a while ago, but seems appropriate now.  Jack LOVES this thing. Also, it can get a lot taller for when he can stand up and dunk.  Bonus!

 He was so focused in on this toy I couldn't get him to look at me for any of these pictures.

 Finally got his attention.

Trying to get the ball in the hoop is a lesson for another day (way down the road) but this turned out to be a great reach and smack around toy right now, plus it cheers for him when he scores a bucket.
