New Friend

I like Marta she's fun.

She even asked for a spoon every time I dropped mine and they would take it away.

Fun With My Mommas.

Chillin with mom. Hi there, I'm good at waving now.

Look at my cool new pajamas, vroom vroom.

Hello Easter!

Camera Fun

This was so cool we had to take a picture of it. The Black family got this for Jonas' room and we were smart and waited until Toni came to help us put it up and it looks fantastic. I love BEETS!

Being a kid can be so hard at times.

GRAMMIE, don't shake me so fast!

Cool, they turned the fan on.

Thanks Uncle Jeff for taking such good photos of me.

The End.

New Toy

Wow, what is this thing?

Ok Jonas, I'll set up this cool barn Michelle and Shawn gave us but don't move the pieces around once I get them like YOU want them.

Don't put the chickens on the top mom!

Will I get in trouble if I move things around to how I want them?

Who cares how they go, I just want to play.

Grammie's Here

OK, here are the rules shove it as fast as you can and don't get distracted. Wait, me not you!

Give me a high five Grammie.

Shriek...Uncle Jeff all day and Grammie all night, it doesn't get any better than this.

Uncle Shannon Stopped By

You've got the perfect lap to sit on...let me get comfortable here.

Uh, I think the opening is supposed to go the other direction!

Requests

Hey Norm, my tooth has quit hurting and I'm ready for you to come back and play...we'll have fun. PS Bring Ali with you as well because she is so nice and is real good at holding my bottle in the car when I need help. PSS If you guys need a ride my Grammie and Uncle Jeff are coming down tomorrow and I know she'll let you stow away in the back seat if I ask, she'll do anything for me.

Camera Shy

Jonas didn't want to look at the camera yesterday so here is what we have. Wondering why he always has to match. Singing the tugboat song

Here's the best smile I got, take it or leave it.

It's Shorts Time

What, I'm practicing for the International Talk Like A Pirate Day and I needed some inspiration. I love shorts weather, Norma and Ali picked out this outfit and I think they have good taste.

I know, I'm cool and I know how to work it.

Help, I hate doing the splits.

Jonathan's Birthday

Seesaw fun...later on it turned into a bronco contest to see who could hold on the longest...guess who won! Some days the world just isn't right.

Jonas having a good time with Norma and Ali.

Here's the birthday boy.

Pull harder Uncle Shawn, I love it when they swing the bat but miss the pinata.

Special Visitor

Look at how close I'm getting. Old McDonald had a farm eieio

With a ba ba here...

Get your hands off me or I'm going to punch you in the face (my mommy taught me that)

Let me give you a few tricks of the trade and save you some time.

So you mean I can continue to smile but if I cry they'll give it to me every time as fast as they can and when I figure out how to do things only show them twice a day max for the first two weeks.

I hope I can remember all that he told me.

Update

What a week we've had around here. I don't have a new picture from yesterday because we were all to tired. On Wed night Jonas woke up around 11:30 and was having trouble breathing. He has had a cold this week but in the back of our minds Jesse and Marion both have pneumonia so we were worried when he was sucking air in so we headed to the hospital. While we were there he ended up breathing ok but the doctor said that can happen because of the cool night air and the temp at the hospital. He has an inner ear infection and croup so unfortunately he is on antibiotics and steroids. We got home just a little after 4AM and I had a class at 8 AM an hour away so you can see why this is yesterday's post. He is feeling better and we have the humidifier going so we are on the mend.

Outdoor wonder.

A little bit of everything

Jonas at the zoo. Do you know how dry this makes my mouth, oh the flavor!

Jonas helping with the laundry, he'll be ready for grape stomping this summer.

Parade Pictures

Hanging out at the St Patty's Day parade in Topeka.

Sorry that I didn't get your shirt pulled all the way down after flashing for some beads...oh wait, wrong event...but look at how many we got.

Jonathan explaining the finer points of candy retrieval.

Chilling like a villain! Who says life is hard.
