Jonas 1 Year old

Wow!! He is one!! The last year has been an amazing year. Jonas is such a wonderful child. We are so blessed by him. It was fun to celebrate and remember his first year of life. On his actual birthday we had dinner and then let him enjoy his first cupcake. He loved the cupcake!! Then on Friday we celebrated with some of the family. He ate more cake, and he loved it. I made him a special monkey cake. Most of all, we just enjoyed celebrating him.

Tea Party

Sara and her animals decided to have a tea party at her table outside. She loved feeding them animal crackers and having juice in her tea pot to share. She is quite the hostess!

Hanging with Eddie

Both the kids enjoy having Eddie visit. He was really kind yesterday and watched both kids for me for 1.5 hours. Go Eddie!!! He did a great job, and I think he survived...

Mr. Busy

Jonas has discovered the ability to be independent by army crawling as quickly as he can away. He loves going in different rooms and having people "chase" him. He looks over his shoulder and laughs as he crawls away. It's fun to see his sense of humor emerging. He also likes to pretend he is giving something to someone and then pull it back and laugh. Funny guy :)

First Real Puzzle

Sara (with some help from Jon) put her first puzzle together. She loved doing it, and we had to leave it put together for at least a week afterward :)

Sara's New Accomplishments

5/20 - Wrote name for first time on own 5/22 - Counted to 100 At dinner, she said, "MMMM, Thank you. This is delicious." Big step :)

Blue Tongue

We went to the Dairy Barn the other day and Sara had Superman ice cream - her favorite. One of the best things about Superman ice cream is that her tongue turns blue. When we got home she ran into the living room and I asked her what she was doing. She had gotten the camera (that I forgot to put away), turned it on and taken a picture of her blue tongue. She wanted to remember her blue tongue :)
