Jonathan was in a great mood today and I spent most of my day laughing at his antics. Here is a sample of him being Jonathan. He initiated this all on his own, no prompting, and I am so glad he kept it up even after I ran to get the camera. The only thing I missed was him laughing as much as I was when it all started! Enjoy!

February Post
Ok, I know it has been too long but here is how our February went:
Jonathan at 7 months: If you open the pic below and zoom in, you can see the two teeth buds popping through.
Being a funny man sticking out his tongue at me!
Cool shot of him in the window light.
He seems so short and chubby in these pictures now!
All ready for a nap.
Rocking back and forth on his knees, getting ready to crawl.
This kid loves to pose for the camera!
He is looking at pictures of himself in the frame. I think he might be getting the idea he is the center of the world!
He was so proud of himself for pulling up on the drawer all on his own!
Just a few days before he could only get to his knees.
He discovered how to "crawl" through the coffee table's lower level but he gets stuck coming down.
He intentionally puts stuff in his mouth and holds on to it like a dog (no hands) just to make me laugh and it works everytime!
Reading us a book.
Ahh, our little ham!
Got a ball, got a swing, really what more does one need in life?
Thanks for checking in. I will be posting Florida vacation pictures and March's recap sometime in the next week!

This face means, "Mmmmm, coasters!"
Classic baby picture to torture him with at his wedding some day.

First slide ride (for the record, he puked on the second trip down!)
J's friend Nathan and his dad Brian.
If you listen carefully, he exclaims, "Mmmm!" after the bite of food!
This is him saying, "Mama!" but I don't think he knows that means me!
This is one of his first bites of solid food and it cracked me up that he chews EXACTLY like his dad and Grandpa Greg. I guess it is genetic and I should learn to live with it. I know it's bad, but Jonathan reminds me of a cow chewing its cud in this clip!

Growing Up Fast!
Hi everyone! I know there are a lot of pictures this time, but I just couldn't make any more cuts! How can I resist this face!
Jonathan has had a great month!
New stuff since the last post: sits on his own all the time,
(This was taken on his half birthday,
and this was three weeks later.)
stands holding on to furniture,
"inch-worms" around to get places on his tummy,
rolls easily from back to tummy and back again (which means we can't keep him off his tummy at night),
waves his arms wildly so the toys go flying and Mom goes fetching,
holds his own bottle,
eats all kinds of fruits and veggies,
(Sometimes he likes them,
and sometimes he doesn't!)
(This lets him taste foods that can't be pureed and might cause him to choke. He is sucking on grapes here.)
composes new songs like Daddy,
chews on his toes,
explores new toys,
but he still sucks his thumb all night long.
He also asks to be pulled to standing up by grabbing our hands, "walks" on his knees, and spins in a 360 circle on his tummy but I haven't captured pictures of those yet.
Here are some cute pictures of him just being himself. He is on the piano in the first one-- how appropriate given the pose!
(with his buddy Nathan)
I am hoping his love of being clean continues into his grade school years :รพ
Daddy got a new coffee maker and he got a new toy! From the looks of this, he might be part cat!
Jonathan and Mommy
Chris and Jonathan spend almost all weekend together every week and they have had some great adventures. Here are some of the highlights.
Cruising in style in his new pack. We went to a local park to walk around the lake and everyone commented on how they would love to change places with Jonathan.
He loves running water in streams.

This was after a morning walk around the block.
Riding around on Daddy's shoulders is fun,
but it can be a little scary too since Daddy is so tall!

We also had some six month pictures done and I have TONS of wallet sized pictures for anyone who wants one. The different poses follow below. Thanks for checking in on our little guy! I cannot believe how much he has grown up and how fast the time has passed!
