The Pumpkin Patch

The search begins...

for the perfect pumpkin!

At the pumpkin patch, today, Jonas was excited to

pick his own pumpkin!!

He really loved the bumpy pumpkins!

There it is!  A dark-orange, bumpy pumpkin!

Jonas had some fun with friends today, too! 

They find the smallest things to entertain themselves...

the joys of childhood!

We love our friends!!

I'm glad I was able to share this with Jonas!

We ended the day with storytime, treats & lunch out with friends!

So much fun today!!

 

Happy Fall!!

SQUISH HUG!

We went to "Chic-a-A" as Jonas says it - for lunch and he

saw their cow waving  to cars out on the street!

He wanted to hug the cow before we even got out of our vehicle! 

"Mommy, can I get a big squish hug from him??!"

When he was finally able to get his SQUISH HUG he was so happy!

Thank you Chic-fil-A for making my son's day!

Our boy!

This is one of my favorite recent pictures of Jonas... even with the food around his mouth!

"Nap Time"

Jonas was supposed to be napping and instead

he decided it was time to play. He took the drawers out

and climbed in! He was crying until we came in and checked on him.

He figured it was ok after we told him he was!

Our Latest Project! Jonas' room renovation

Jonas' room was going to be redone in the future... then it was overtaken by a leaky hot water heater! It has been replaced and the carpet has been torn out! We are down to the bare bones and Jonas can't wait to have a brand new room!

The walls are getting torn apart and eventually replaced...


Jonas is standing where our new pantry will
be - part of the kitchen - not his room!

We have a lot of work ahead of us, but we're ready!

Riding in Style!

Jonas is sporting his new helmet, elbow & knee pads.

He loves his new big boy bike!

Especially when he rides down the sidewalk

super fast!

September 20th - Jonas' birthday party with friends!

"Happy Birthday to myself"

is what he sang up until today

when all of his friends sang to him!

Jonas was blessed with 3 birthdays this year.. 2 with grandparents!

Hopefully he won't be confused next year when he only has one!

Storytime with the neighbors!

Fun with balloons!

He loves his new wooden truck!

Happy Birthday, my big boy!

Tickles-n-Giggles

Saying goodbye...

We all love when Grandpa & Gramma come to visit - so hard to say goodbye - has to be all smiles! : ) We love you!!! xoxoxo

Playtime with Grandpa!

Fun with presents and cake!!

Hilton Head Island Continued... the playground!

Jonas had a blast at the beach... and loved the play ground even more!

We need a zip line in our yard!! I'll just add it to the honey-do list! :) Jonas had so much fun with Grampa!

My little tree hugger...

Who doesn't love the beach? I know we do!!

September 16th - Our "baby boy" is 3!!!

I took Jonas and my parents to Hilton Head Island to go swimming for Jonas' birthday.

It would have been the perfect day if his Daddy could come! We had a little bit of fun without him. Jonas LOVES swimming in the ocean and everywhere there is water, so it was a good trip!

Fun with Gramma Nancy!

Jonas had a GREAT time playing with his Gramma Nancy!

September 13th - Our Baptism!!

What a glorious day!! We thank God for everything that He has given for us.

September 13th - Enjoying family time

Jonas had a great time on his climbing wall and playing with Grandpa n Grandma. Mark & Dad made a new tripod for cooking over our fire... best of all - we made steaks over the open fire. Mmm! We had so much fun that day...

September 10th - A New "Tool Belt"

Jonas loved his new way to carry his tools... such a creative boy!
