Another funny story about Jonas. We were at our friends the other night and they have a little girl a month older than Jonas. The little girl had brought her dolly out to play with it. After a little while we were eating and Jonas was playing with toys. I then look over to see Jonas on top of the dolly french kissing her. My friends were laughing hysterically and Ben was saying, "That's my boy!" I was kind of embarrassed and so I said, "Jonas come here," and went to pick him up. When I went to pick him up he would not leave the dolly's mouth alone. After a lot more prying and tears I finally got the dolly away. When I looked at the dolly I realized why he was so enamored with her mouth evidently she had a left over cracker piece in it.

Today I was eating lunch in the kitchen. I had laid Jonas down in the play room right next to the kitchen. After a little while I was not hearing anything from the play room . Which I know from experience that it signals something isn't right. So I went to the play room and Jonas was nowhere in sight. So I began to panick. I ran to the back rooms in the hallway and once I passed the bathroom door I looked in and to my shock Jonas was standing up right next to the toilet holding onto the seat and gumming it.

Scary Moment

So yesterday I about panicked because Jonas fell off the couch. I thought for sure something was going to be wrong with him and it did not help when I called my mom who is a nurse practioner and she gave me all the symptoms of having a brain injury such as sleeping more, dialation in the eyes, high pitch screaming, ect. I monitored closely all day yesterday, thankfully nothing was wrong with him. I guess I am just a little protective. Anyhow here is a funny picture of Jonas. By the way this is taking me forever to type because Jonas is trying to type it to.

Job Change

So yesterday was my last day of teaching. I am now an official stay at home mom. It was bittersweet. I will miss many thing of teaching but there are a lot of things that I would miss if I stayed at home. I just hope that I can keep myself busy so that I don't go bonkers being at home all the time. We will see how I do I have a year to try it out!

Jonas is growing big and strong. Today we took him to the doctor and they said he weighed 13.5 pounds and that he was 24.5 inches. He has been giggling and smiling and starting to sit up with support and trying to do it more independently . He is babbling a lot and sleeping through the night, which we are glad for. Please pray for us as we decide what to do next year whether it be stay at home or work.

update

So I realized I have not posted on here for awhile, mainly because I have been extremely busy. With having a ten week old and trying to work full time it keeps me plenty busy. Jonas is doing great and growing so big. It is neat to see all the new things he is learning to do. Although, today he is fussy because he got his vaccinations yesterday, I still love being a mom. It is funny how Ben and I value the few precious moments we have together and the giant triumph of him sleeping through the night finally.

Move

so this has been an exciting couple of months for us. First we had a baby and then we moved from our apartment into a house. The house is really nice and I will get around to posting pictures later on. Well I have to go take care of Jonas for now because he is crying.
