Jonah's 1st Birthday

Well it's obvious i'm not a real "blogger" or really any good. it's taken me almost 4 months from my last post to write!! Maybe one day I will improve but for now, i'm trying :)

Yesterday was our little guys 1st birthday. I don't know where the time has gone or even how it has passed so quickly. Not that I remember much back to the time when he was born or the three-four months following. when all he seemed to do was scream and cry :) But i do remember all the fun we've had in the last year and how busy we have been. We have so many wonderful memories and look forward to making many many more.

Jonah went in for his 1 year check up yesterday and he is 20 lbs (10%) and 30 inches long (75%). He is doing so well and right on "track" We did find out that he has an ear infection :( so its a good thing we went to the doc otherwise i would have never known. Aside from the falling into the fireplace, huge goose egg, and splitting his lip or something that gushed blood, on the kids table he's doing just fine :) I guess maybe the off balance thing should have been the clue.

We have had a lot of visitors this past month to help celebrate the big day. Mimi came to visit a little early to help out b/c Daddy had to go in for Hernia Surgery. Luckily it was nothing major and he is doing just fine, healing slowly :) She had a lot of fun with the kids and definitely wore us out!!! Nana & Papa came to visit as well. We all had a great time running around and playing. Nana was able to stay and help us celebrate with Jonah.

Shayna is doing great and as always being such a wonderful big sister. She really likes, for the most part, having Jonah around and being able to help him. She is such a kind and loving little girl. We are so lucky to have two wonderful and happy little kids. They definitely add lots of smiles every day.
