Jonas, 10 months old

On March 12, Jonas turned 10 months old. Some of his favorite things now are balloons and balls. He says, "ba" when looking at balls and balloons. He sometimes says, "mama" and "dada". He continues to roll. He also gets in a crawling position and rocks back and forth. He has continued to great at sleeping at night - yeah!! He loves to smile. When he and Sara are in the car together, Sara makes faces and laughs and he laughs back. He seems to have a big interest in everything. He eats a ton! We can't seem to feed him enough. 10 months of great fun!

Big Girl Bed

About a month ago, Sara got a new bed. Her old one broke (from parents sitting on it - not a good idea), and it was getting a bit tight. She loves the new big bed. It has space for clothes underneath. It is pretty high, but she hasn't fallen out yet, except for the time she was practicing "stop, drop, and roll" on her bed - also not a good idea. oh, the things we learn around here. We found Hello Kitty sheets, which is currently her favorite character. She has really enjoyed it.

Angels

Sara decided to make halos out of her beads and pipe cleaners. She and Jonas wore their wings and halos. She is really creative and imaginative! So fun :)

Teacher/Leader

Sara's current favorite pretend scenario to play is being a small group leader or sunday school teacher. It is really cute. She gets all the dining room chairs in a circle and puts her stuffed animals in all the seats in the living room and pretends to lead worship and then talk about Jesus. Super cute :)

Sleep, sweet, beautiful sleep

4 out of the last 5 nights, Jonas has slept all night. Let's say that there are some super happy parents at this house!!! In addition, Sara has also slept through the night. Please God, don't let it stop...

First Hair Cut

On 2/26, Sara had her first hair cut. She did such a great job sitting perfectly still, and she definitely got the whole talk to the hairstylist thing :) She loved having someone's undivided attention for 1/2 an hour. We saved some of the curls. It was one of the moments I hope I'll remember forever. It is also one of the times that I realized how much Sara has grown up.

Ready for Summer

Sara is ready for the snow to melt and the warm weather to come. Every day she finds some of her summer clothing and puts them on. She also pretends that she is going swimming with all of her animals. I'm with her on the vote for warmer weather :)
