Pumpkin Carving

Jonas spent a long time cleaning out his pumpkin. He kept putting the goop back in and taking it out over and over again! He also enjoyed using the pieces we carved out as a puzzle pieces to put back in the pumpkin!

Tool Man

Jonas loved his new tool set. He plays with it all the time. He even played a game with Papa where he kept putting each tool in "time out"! He has such a strange imagination!

Check Up

Jonas went to the doctor a couple weeks ago for his 3rd year check up. He weighs 33 pounds, and he is 37 inches tall. We had talked about what the doctor would do - look at his eyes, nose, ears, mouth, etc. After the doctor was done checking him, Jonas reminded him that he forgot to look in his nose! He was a trooper for his shots as always, no crying!

3rd Birthday Party!

For Jonas' 3rd birthday, we celebrated with a Curious George party! The first thing on the agenda was snacks - Jonas' favorite!

We had a banana scavenger hunt, and Bethany and Jonas had a great time finding all the bananas.

Until they were all gone. Then the meltdown happened.

"Don't try to take my bananas!"

Luckily presents were next, and that cheers up everyone. Jonas got lots of nice things and evened remembered his manners and said "thank you"!



We had a Curious George cake, and Bethany helped pass out all the plates. The kids had tons of fun!

I can't believe Jonas is already 3!

Silliness

This is what happens when the kids find the Sunday School boxes.

Beatles Rock Band

It's pretty awesome when your 3 year old knows who the Beatles are...

McDonald's Bday Outing

Happy birthday to Jonas! I had so much fun taking my favorite nephew out to a birthday lunch at McDonald's. He loved that they were already decorated for Halloween, and that now that he's 3 he can climb all the way up to the slide by himself. Now someone just needs to teach him how to hold up 3 fingers correctly!

The Great Pumpkin Farm

Jonas and I went to the Great Pumpkin Farm today. Jonas loved feeding the animals, especially the baby goats. He kept instructing them to "wait your turn" when they all tried to eat out of his hand at once! He picked a ghost to get painted on his face, and wanted to keep going in to the bathroom to look at it. He was allowed to pick one ride to go on, and picked the boats. He had the ride all to himself! We also got to go on a hayride, watch a juggling act, and go through the "Boo Barn". With all that excitement, Jonas' favorite part was probably simply walking through the pumpkin patch. He liked the pumpkins with faces painted on them, and wanted to make "pumpkin faces" over and over for the camera. He had me laughing pretty hard!

Playing Dress Up

I don't know if that shirt quite goes with those shoes...

Sunday School

Jonas gets to be in Sunday School now too! Lucky for him, his teacher is Papa!

Mommy's Birthday

My birthday was a few weeks ago, and my brother and sisters made me this awesome cake...

Jonas, on the other hand, didn't even get all the way dressed for my birthday :)

"Don't look at me!"
