Go Sabres!

Jonas' First Christmas

Christmas Eve Morning

He's excited!

Christmas Eve at Great Grandma's

He got a very funny giggle ball that he really liked!

After Great Grandma's we went to Grandma Herdlein's, but Jonas was very cranky and tired, so there are no pictures. Christmas morning we opened our family gifts, and Christmas Day we headed over to Aunt Marie's.


Jonas met Claudy and Geoff!

After Aunt Marie's, we went over to Uncle Bob's. Jonas met the New Jersey Herdlein's, and loved his cousin Blake!


Jonas is not in this picture, but it is a seriously cute one of our nieces Allison and Rachel, and nephew Quincy.


Overall, Jonas had a great, although tiring, Christmas. We can't wait until next year when he is walking and talking!

Jonas met Santa!

Jonas went to the Knight' s Christmas party on Saturday and met Santa! He didn't even cry! And, he got to hang out with some of his cousins too.




After the party, we headed out to Batavia for bowling. Guess who's in town! Jonas had fun hanging out with Dave and Kathy while Andy and I bowled.

After his big day, Jonas passed out until about 8:30 this morning. And when I went to wake him up for church, this is how I found him in his bassonet. I couldn't resist getting a quick picture before starting the day!

Tree Decorating Day

Jonas and Bethany spent the evening at Grandma and Grandpa's house last night, and got to help decorate the Christmas tree! Or eat it....whatever. Here's some pictures from the events!

Bethany discovering she loves Christmas and all the stuff that goes with it.

Awesome hat!

Happy Baby

It's only fair to have a sleeping picture of mom and baby if I put one up of dad and baby.


Look at how happy my little boy is!


This is Jonas before seeing the doctor and getting shots- very happy little boy.


And this is Jonas right after getting shots, already asleep. Obviously he wasn't too upset about it. By the way, he is 10 lbs 11 oz, and 22 1/2" long. Getting big!


Jonas' new little snowsuit.


Jonas hanging out with Aunt Lisa, Uncle Mike and Mary. Quite excited about it too.


Jonas sleeping with his new giraffe from Aunt Lisa and Uncle Matt. It's bigger than he is!

Baptism

My little boy got baptized yesterday! The service was very nice, and Jonas didn't even cry. He did spit up in the middle of it, but luckily it doesn't show up on his white suit. He was so cute with his white suit and black hair! After church everyone headed over to our house f0r a party. Jonas had a great time hanging out with his cousins, and Allison and Rachel even fed him! Thanks to everyone who helped out, we really appreciate it!

Little sidenote - Jonas sucked on a new binkie! It was largely out of desperation I think because I left the old one at the church, but it's still exciting!
