More pictures, I hope...
Hanging out eating
Daddy's Study Buddy :)
Hanging out in the stroller during our walk at the dog park.
This is at the dog park, but I love this picture, we took Clair, my parent's dog and Miles there. And both had a blast running around, and Clair loved the water, Miles not so much. :)
A gorgeous sunset over Turnagain Arm one night last week when I was leaving the church after an event. so glad I had my camera with me.
Hanging out with Grandpa on the new floors - more to come of the flooring pics :)
Watching our first cross country meet.
Jonathan got to hang out in his pack n play alot during the flooring installation, and did a great job!
pictures, maybe??
Game day!!! Go Nebraska!!!
Some of my naptime creations! I needed some bibs for him that weren't velcro, because he has figured how to pull those off! So, I hit my stash is fabrics and this is what I came up with! And funny, after unsuccessfully pulling these off, he doesn't try to pull off his other ones anymore either! :)
Opening the cupboards in our kitchen.
We went swimming with Grandma and Uncle Ben - Jonathan didn't hate it, but didn't seem to quite love it, but was really relaxed and chill, we stayed in the water for about 45 min!!
AGHHH!!!
I always have so many issues posting pictures! I'll keep trying, cause I know anyone reading this really would prefer pictures! :)
Mmmm....
I love fresh chocolate chip cookies right out of the oven, and I'm enjoying a couple right now as I sit down to write this. I mostly just have some pictures to add here, with some updating.
It is definately feeling like fall here, and I love it! It has been gorgeous and sunny the last few days but with that crispness in the air.
Jonathan continues to amaze me daily at things he is trying to tackle and the new things he is learning. The other day I looked over and he was trying to climb up the stairs - Jeremy was watching him, and he made it up about 7 steps. Yikes! I guess we need to at some point teach him the stairs so that he doesn't just go for it and fall but how to do this? Guess I will be learning that soon! He is also become quite adept at opening cupboards and drawers and spots our open bedroom door and crawls there as quickly as possible as he is learning that it is off limits. It's amazing how quickly babies really do understand right from wrong and will try to get away with what they know is not right. Making it even more clear to me how we are each born with a sinful nature.
Another big step for us this last week is that Jonathan is starting to go to bed at night without having to be asleep in my arms/after nursing. We still nurse before bed, but a few nights now he has been awake and I've laid him down and he falls asleep after just a little fussing. This is huge for us!! Used to be if he was laid down awake it would mean hours of crying (yes, unfortunately I've tried him and he will cry for hours!) Maybe it's because we've been staying at my parent house watching my brothers this last week and he is sleeping in his pack n play in my parents closet, so it is dark, but whatever it is, I hope it continues! :)
After waiting until 8 months hold to cut a tooth, he now has 4 teeth! He's been cutting about 1/wk it seems. And overall it is going smoothly, we seem to have one sleepless night, but are good after that. He now has his two bottom teeth and top two teeth on either side of where his middle teeth will go. A little odd, but whatever!
AND - can't remember what I said last post, but he is now eating just about anything we feed to him! We are just feeding him mostly whatever we are eating for dinner, within reason, and he seems to love anything with seasoning and flavor to it. And forget anything with a pureed texture, that is coming right back out. And he much prefers it from a fork rather than a spoon. And sometimes I will let him feed himself with the fork and he does a great job!
He is all boy it seems and bumps and bruises don't bother him, unless we fuss over something then he might get upset.
Haha, for not having much to say, I always seem to be able to fill up some space! :)
