Memorial Day etc.

 My brother bought Jax some mustaches and so we decided to put them on Jonah! He still looked adorable! :)


Josh and Jaxson went on the Father and Sons camp out a few weekends ago. It was freezing and I was worried about them sleeping out, but they did great and Jax loved it! Josh said that Jax woke up early in the morning and was hungry so they got him some crackers and then when they were going back to sleep a flock of geese were right by them and were so loud and Jax kept saying "tweet, tweet" and laughing. He thought it was hilarious! They went on a hike too and Josh said Jax loved riding in the back pack and hitting things with sticks! They had a good father/son outing!



Jagger, Jax, and Halle snugglin'!
 Jonah's new favorite toy! He just stares at that little lizard all day, it is funny!


For Memorial Day weekend we headed up to Midway to spend it with Josh's family. Saturday we got tickets to go ride Thomas the train! It was fun and Jax loved it, except the weather was awful so we didn't stick around much after the train ride because it was rainy and blowy. Then on Monday we went on a little hike, played a little tennis, and got super sun burned...I had been on an antibiotic because I just got strep throat (OUCH) so I think that is why I got so fried. We also took family pictures, had a BBQ and then came home! The highlight of the trip was that Ralph (Josh's dad) backed out of the garage and smashed right into our new car! SWEET!! So we will be getting that fixed soon. Other than that it was a great long weekend. It's hard to get back to real life!

Jonah enjoyed the train too!

Jax having fun! He kept saying "choo, choo!"

THOMAS!!!!

Jonah and Jax hanging on the couch. Jax had some MAJOR bed head...haha

Jonah had rice cereal for the first time! I have been putting it in a bottle before bed, but I decided to try it with a spoon and he did great. I don't think he cares how he gets food, just as long as he gets it! :)


Jonah's Blessing

Jonah was blessed on May 6th! It was a beautiful day! Josh did such a great job on the blessing and we had our whole family here to celebrate with us! We had a little breakfast at our house after, and it was a nice day so we had it in our backyard. Jonah is growing up so fast and is such a blessing in our lives! Oh how we love our little chunky man!



 Jax wanted "Papa" and was freaking...

Jonah's 8 week check up



Well, we have one HUGE baby! We had his 8 weeks check up today and he is a healthy boy! He was off the charts in both height and weight! He was 15 lbs 14 oz and almost 26 inches long! His head was in the 75th percentile. He did have to get shots today and he was a champ. He cried, and it was so sad because he never cries, but by the time they put the Band-Aids on him and I picked him up he was done crying. Jonah is such a fun baby. He is happy ALL THE TIME! He never cries. Even when he is hungry he just kind of yells. He smiles and has almost giggled but not quite. He is wearing 3-6 month clothes, but probably not for much longer, he is almost out of them. He is so easy going, even with Jax running around yelling all the time. He has been squirted in the face with a squirt bottle, rammed in the head with a train by Jax, and he still is just the greatest baby. He DID NOT like the water in his face though! ha ha poor kid. Oh how we love our chunky monkey! :)

Here is a funny video of Jonah talking....ha ha
