First Dental Visit

 
 
 

Jonah wanted to come to Mommy's work, the dentist office. He didn't want me to wear gloves or a mask but, I let him play with the equipment. He will probably be my most difficult patient!

Jonah and I had a nice time at the Zoo, just the two of us. He has been there so many times, he tells me where we are going next when we walk around. He has become my tour guide.

They spent some time in the NICU but were able to come home earlier than we expected. Jonah loves them and ecpecially seems obsessed with the little girl, Jaye. He told me he wants a girl too!

This is the first time Jonah was able to sit on a big boy swing all by himself. Still not able to make himself go, but this is a huge step!
(this was in March...out of sequence, sorry)

Jonah's New Swingset

 
 
 
 

With ALOT of hardwork and help, John was able to put the singset back together. It made the long journey from the Shearman's house in Haskins, Ohio to our house in Sylvania, Ohio. Jonah is so happy to have his own playground!!

Daddy's "Head Hat" and glasses

Jonah loves to imitate his Dad. John always lets him use his tools and wear his safety equipment. He is so observant and he knows how to use all of the tools as they are intended...he tries to take apart anything he can get his hands on.


Great Great Grandma B.

Jonah had alot of fun visiting his "B". He colored her some pictures and we watched the birds fly around their cages. We always enjoy our visits and we are so lucky to have her in our lives. It is amazing that they are alost exactly 100 years apart in age. She will be 103 on April 28th and he will be 3 in August. What an amazing thought!







You have a little something on your face...


Aunt Stephanie brought Superman Ice Cream for the boys, they loved smearing it all over their faces.

Never trust a Handyman who doesn't wear pants!


Jonah's Version of the ABC's

It took a few tries, but I was finally able to get Jonah to sing his ABC's for the camera. It is so cut to hear a 2.5 year old's pronunciation of the L-M-N-O-P part. I also find it funny that he has to sit on the floor and tap his legs like they do in school in order to keep time.

Vintage Fun

At Jonah's school, they had a photographer come to take these pictures. The kids got to dress up and choose a prop to sit with. My dad says we need to call him "Spanky."









Where are my legs?

During our last major amount of snow I was busy running the snow blower while Jonah played. When I came around the corner I saw Jonah waist deep in the snow and all he could say is, "Momma, I stuck!"




Nap Time








Jonah is out of his crib and is transitioning to his "big boy bed". He has not been sleeping through the night (since November 22nd, not that I'm counting) so we thought a change of scenery would help, but so far it hasn't worked. He get up still between 2 and 4 a.m. every night and comes to wake us up so one of us goes to sleep with him. We find this to be the only way we can get sleep. He falls asleep well, we read books and when his limit of 3 books is up, we flips through and reads them to himself until he passes out.

Jungle Java

Aunt Stephanie heard about this place called Jungle Java in Ann Arbor, MI. Our families decided to go one weeked to check it out. When we arrived there was only a few parking spaces left which meant it was going to be CROWDED, and it was!! It is a very fun concept with larger than life a jungle gym and a cafe for parents (NOT quite and relaxing!!) it was a great time for the kids. I recommed going during the week to avoid the crowds.
