My First Mother's Day

I had a wonderful Mother's Day! I am so proud to be a Mom!

Our Family


Funny Boy







What a HAM! I had to share these prize winning photos with you all. If this doesn't put a smile on your face, nothing will!

"Splish, Splash"


Wildwood Park



Jonah LOVED the swings at the park. He didn't want to leave. We had a great time as a family walking around on the trails.

Laughter is the BEST Medicine


There is no better sight when you wake up in the morning!! Well I guess that there is no better way to unwind from a long day at work either!

Sitting Pretty

Jonah has now mastered the art of sitting up without our help. Thanks to the size of his thighs he is very stable! He loves to sit and play with his toys and watch his doggies chase each other around the house. That ring toy has survived his cousins Alex and Ben and now he is enjoying it, thanks cousins!

A Peaceful Night!


This picture is from the night of the "blizzard". Jonah we to bed in his room and fell asleep all by himself. Well, no really all be himself, he had his little bee to suggle with. This was only the 5th time he slept throught the night and he stayed in that position all night! I hope this is a good sign for the nights to come.

Happy Valentine's Day!



Doesn't he look like cupid or maybe Cupie? No matter what, he is a sweetie pie!

Future Nascar Driver


Jonah loves this car that Aunt Kristen and Uncle Mike bought for him. He plays with the radio, honks the horn, starts the car, talks on the phone and jumps like a wild man. He looks a Little to happy to be behind the wheel already! As you can tell, he looks a little large for six months of age. Well, the camera is not lying, at his 6 month visit he tipped the scales at 24.8 pounds. Needless to say, he is off the growth charts! We are now cutting down on the formula and giving him fruit/veggies three times a day and almost 1/3 or the bottles he used to drink. He is doing great and his mood has improved tremendously!!

I Love My "Binkie"



This little piece of plastic has been a life saver!

I'll do it MYSELF!


In January, Jonah decided that he would start holding his own bottle from now on. He realized that he can control how much he eats and when he eats.

Let me tell you, he has quite a grip and needless to say we can no longer burp him in the middle of bottle time. His little knuckles turn white because he is grabbing it so tight

Christmas Day


A new hairdo thanks to Uncle Eric!

Christmas Eve

Christmas Memories




Here is Jonah
with his Great Great Grandma Belair. It is hard to imagine that they are 100 years apart. We are so lucky to have her in our lives, she is a wonderful woman!

"Santa's Helper"

5 Months Old


In this photo Jonah is 5 months old. What a ham!! He is very excited for Santa to come and visit him. He can finally say that he is being a good boy!

"Dinner Time"


Jonah is finally used to eating his cereal and fruits. He loves the pears the most. I think he enjoys wearing more of it that eating it though.

Winter Cutie


I just loved this photo and I had to share it with you.

"Little Gobbler"



Jonah enjoyed his first Thanksgiving. He has finally conquered the colic!! There are many more moments of happiness and smiles. We still suffer from insomnia so days, but things are sooooo much better.
After 16 weeks, we finally have the cute, happy little boy we have always dreamed of.

"Go Blue"




Jonah is getting prepared for the big game that will be here soon. Due to the influence of his Uncle Mike and Aunt Kristen he will be sporting his Michigan Gear. Well maybe he will change at half time to support his Godfather, Uncle Eric's Buckeyes so he doesn't show favorites. The poor child is going to be confused when he grows up.

Cute Cousins



Jonah loves his cousins. Alexander is 3 years old and Benjamin is 16 months. Can you imagine what sorts of trouble they will be getting into next year? It is kind of scary, but Jonah looks almost as big as Ben already.
