Gross Jonas

Jonas has been quite the gross boy the past couple days. Yesterday he decided to pee all over Daddy, and then he threw up on my face. Today, he peed on two outfits while we were out, and I had nothing left to dress him in, so he ended up in this! Doesn't he look goofy?

Thanksgiving

I went back to work on Tuesday, and Grandpa got to be the first person to babysit both babies. Bethany came over to my house and had fun stealing Jonas' binkie. Today was also Jonas' first Thanksgiving! He slept through pretty much all of our first dinner with the Herdleins, and then fussed through dinner with the Sirgeys. How fun it is to have little ones around!

Finally!

Mommy got lots of smiles this morning. Yay!!!

Sabres Game

Well, the Sabres game just ended. Obviously, Andrew and Jonas didn't find it that interesting. Aren't they cute?

Sick

My poor little baby has a cold, so we stayed in today to try and get better. Uncle Rick and Aunt Shirley stopped by to see Jonas and see the house, so Jonas finally got to meet his Uncle Rick! And of course, Jonas greeted him by spitting up on his shoulder. Nice of him, huh? We're hoping he feels better tomorrow so he's in a little better mood.

Where's Waldo?

One Month!

Today Jonas is one month old! I can't believe it's already been that long. He already holds up hid head pretty well, he loves to suck on his fingers now, and he's starting to stay awake longer during the day to play with his mom. This is the best picture I've been able to get so far of him smiling, but I'll keep trying. I kind of caught the end of it there! Still cute though.

Visiting Great Gram

Today Jonas and I went shopping with Great Grandma, and afterwards we went to her apartment for Jonas to eat. I guess she must be pretty scaring looking, considering Jonas covered his face the whole time she held him. He kept falling asleep while she was feeding him, and as he was he smiled! He did it about 5 times, but of course I could never get the camera fast enough. Hopefully he'll keep doing it more and more so I can catch it! It is absolutely adorable by the way, but I'm sure you knew that!


Jonas also had a good time on Sunday hanging out with his friends Ryan and Evan at Grandma Herdlein's house!

Happy birthday Grandma!

Yesterday we hung out with Grandma for her birthday. Jonas loves her!

Bamm-Bamm!

We finally got internet in our new house, and now I can continue posting pictures! Jonas had a great Halloween hanging out with his cousin Bethany. They dressed up as Bamm-Bamm and Pebbles, and they were adorable!

My little chunker

We went to the doctor today. Now remember, we went only one week ago, and he was back to his birthweight, 7 lbs 13 oz. Today he was 8 lbs 7 oz! I couldn't believe it. So, I guess he's gaining weight ok. After the doctor's appointment, we went to the new house to clean a bit and unload some of the things that dad brought over from their house. Jonas had a really good time hanging out with his cousin in his new house! And of course, we have to thank Uncle Matthew for bringing back the house keys...for some reason Aunt Lisa can't ever remember her own keys, but takes ours. Try to figure that one out!

New House!

Well, I know it's been a little while since the last post, so you get to see lots of pictures this time. We had a very busy weekend. Jonas got to meet a bunch of new people, and he had lots of fun. Our friends Catherine and Erik were here for the weekend, and he got to meet a bunch more of his aunts and uncles and hang out with his cousins at Ben's christening on Sunday. Monday we hung out with the Herdlein's at Kathy's birthday party (Happy Birthday Aunt Kathy!). And guess what? Today we get to go close on our new house! Jonas can't wait to have his own room! By the way, he slept through the night for the second time last night! Yay Jonas!

1st Doctor's Appointment

Jonas had his first doctor's appointment yesterday. He is back up to his birthweight, 7 lbs 13 oz, and he grew 1/2 an inch, and is now up to 21 inches long. Here he is showing off his beautiful long fingers for everyone.

Hanging out at home

Well, we have had a very busy couple of days. Sunday we tried to give the Bills good luck by dressing Jonas in his Bills onesie. Didn't work out of course, but we did have a good time going to the mall with Grandma, Aunt Lisa, and Bethany. For some reason I have a hard time remembering his diaper bag, but luckily Bethany wasnice enough to share her bottle, which Jonas had in Macy's bathroom. Good thing it had nice chairs for us to relax in! Monday we got to go visit Daddy at work and meet all the nice people he works with. Everyone loved Jonas of course. Tuesday Jonas got to see where Mom and Dad hang out every Tuesday. We went to Wild Wings, but I don't think Jonas was too impressed, because he slept through the whole thing. Today we are just relaxing at home and watching TV. Tomorrow we get to go to the doctor and see how big he is! I can't wait!

Grandpa's birthday

We survived the storm and kept power and heat the whole time! We even hosted a party for Grandpa's birthday. Jonas had a great time hanging out with Grandpa and got to know his cousin Bethany better too!

Daddy feeding Jonas

After Andrew found out his car got massacred in the snowstorm...


he decided to make a little invention to allow Jonas to feed himself...


which lasted about 2 seconds before Mommy made him pick Jonas up and feed him properly.

Belly button!!

Look at my little baby's belly button! Isn't it cute? I think Jonas is quite happy to be rid of his little cord.

Jonas had his first bath...sort of anyway. We washed his hair for him to visit with his family and look nice and cute. He was a little distressed, I don't think he liked it too much.


He also had his first ride in his swing, which put him right to sleep.


Today, we are relaxing at home as a family because Andrew couldn't go to work because of the weather. Jonas and I are so excited! Here's Daddy and Jonas spending some quality time together.

Coming Home

Well, Jonas and I survived the hospital and yesterday we got to finally come home at around 3:30 PM. I think we were both ready, despite how nice it was to have the nurses there to help.


We had a fairly relaxing day at home eating, sleeping, and changing diapers. And then night came, and Jonas woke up. Mom and Dad took shifts between feedings, but I think we both only got about a total of 3 hours sleep. Wish us better luck for tonight!
