A Little Obsessive Compulsive??

For some reason Jonas LOVES to line things up! He does it with blocks, his toy cars, DVDs...anything he can get a lot of. He even gets upset when he runs out of room or if someone messes it up. Such a funny boy...

Playing Ball With Great Grandma!

Reading!

I pray Jonas loves to read this much in 5 years...

Cupboard Hideout

Jonas and Bethany always empty out this cupboard in Papa's house and climb inside. They have done it since they could both move around, and they can both fit inside and close the doors. It's like their own little clubhouse!

Cutie Patooties!

Just a cute cousinly picture! Look how big Rebekah is getting!

Potty Time!

Jonas is starting to show some interest in the potty...most likely because that's what Bethany does! He has gone potty about 3 or 4 times now! He's is not consistent by any means, but it's a start!

Gross!

Jonas' new favorite word is definitely "gross"! He says it all the time...when he sees something on the floor, when he's dirty, when I change him...the list goes on and on! He's taking after his daddy in that department!

Boat?

Jonas and Bethany spent a lot of time playing in their "boat" today! I went to take their picture, and told them to get back in. Bethany said, "Boat? OK" and climbed back in with Jonas. They have such great imaginations...

Snow!

Jonas was pretty excited when he woke up and saw snow outside a couple days ago! We put on his hat and mittens and went out a couple minutes before we had to go so he could see it. He even helped Grandma brush off her car! It's going to be a fun winter!

Trunk or Treat!

Our last Halloween adventure was Trinity's Trunk or Treat. By this one, Jonas really got the hang of it! He went around to the cars at least 5 or 6 times, and got as much candy as he could. He started out taking one piece from each car, then it was once piece in each hand, then it was as much as he could carry! He was a little afraid of some of the cars that were decorated, but not enough to stop him from getting the candy! Unfortunately, I did not have my camera to document this event because I had already left it at my grandma's. But check out the post on Bethany's website! The last picture is from Trunk or Treat!

It's not over yet?!?

Saturday night we headed over to Great Grandma Sirgey's. Jonas and Bethany had a lot of fun playing with their cousin Leah.

Party Party!

The day after Halloween we went to Grandma's office party. Jonas got to color, go through a haunted house, and of course, eat a little candy.

Halloween Night

On Halloween, we dressed up the children and headed out to show them off. First stop was Great Grandma's! Jonas got a goody bag of treats and was very happy to be spoiled!

Next we headed back home, and Daddy came over to give Jonas a treat and do a little door-to-door trick-or-treating. Jonas was really excited!

Last we went over to Uncle Mike and Aunt Mary's house. Jonas got a new Hot Wheel truck! He had a great time chasing Shadow all over the house!

Mall-O-Ween

Our first event was the "Mall-O-Ween" at Eastern Hills Mall. Jonas thought it was pretty cool that all he had to do was put on his bear costume to get candy! Once he got there, he was pretty intimidated by the crowds and commotion, and made Grandma carry him almost the whole time. Poor Grandma! By the time we finished trick-or-treating and ate dinner at the food court, he was plenty comfortable enough to ride the little carousel! He even got to see Aunt Mary and Uncle Mike for dinner!

The Three Little Bears

Better late than never...here's the first post of Halloween adventures! The kids dressed up as Papa Bear, Mama Bear, and Baby Bear. They were absolutely adorable, and they LOVED their costumes!

Bless You!

Today I sneezed, and Jonas said "Bless you!" He picks up on almost everything now. Such a smart boy. He is also getting pretty good with his "please"s and "thank you"s. He needs a little reminder sometimes, but he always says it!

By the way, I apologize for the lack of Halloween pictures so far. They are coming, I promise! My camera happens to be in my coat pocket...which is at my grandma's house in Niagara Falls. I will post the pictures as soon as I get it back!
