Hayden's Dedication

Our little Hayden got dedicated on Sunday.  He was super cute, as always, and I was proud to stand up as his Godmother.  Love you, Hayden!

Chalk Day!

We have a "special friends" program at our school where an older child is paired up with a younger child to do various activities throughout the year.  Our first even was chalk day...super fun!

Jonas and his special friend Kobe hard at work...

Apple Picking

Our Kindergarten class went on a field trip to Stonehill Apple Orchard.  Jonas filled up his bag with lots of yummy apples, and ate a few, too!

Trinity Camp Out

Trinity had their first annual camp out last weekend.  A fun time was had by all, and Jonas was pretty tired by the end of the night!  Look at how angelic he looks sleeping in his chair in front of the campfire...hands folded and everything!

First Day of Kindergarten!

Jonas was super excited to be in Kindergarten...so he could stay at school for lunch!  He looks like such a big boy...

From September 2011


Jonas wasn't too nervous...probably because his teacher is me!

Demolition Derby

We took the kids to the demolition derby in Clarence over Labor Day weekend.  Jonas loved it (no surprise there), and I thoroughly enjoyed listening to his sound effects the whole time.  Not many pictures...since he was on my shoulders!



Kindergarten Pillows

Aunt Lisa made some awesome pillows for our Kindergarten classroom rug.  This kids already love them!  Thanks Lisa!!!

Baking

Jonas and I spent one of the last days before school started doing some baking.  We made banana bread and brownies.  Jonas is always a big help in the kitchen, and he loves it!

Campfire

Last night we enjoyed a campfire at Grandma and Papa's house.




We didn't have any marshmallows, so the kids ate bananas instead...and were quite happy about it, too!

Jonas Meets Hayden

Jonas will be a great big cousin! Here's some pictures of Jonas meeting Hayden for the first time.

Jonas gave Hayden a Tigger stuffed animal, the Very Hungry Caterpillar (Jonas' favorite book), and a Twinkle Twinkle Little Star book that sings.





Jonas did such a good job with his new baby cousin. I can't wait to see them grow up together!

Hayden Michael

Jonas' new cousin, Hayden Michael was born this morning at 4:57 A.M. He is 6 lbs, 11 oz, and is 20" long. I got to go up and see him this afternoon, but Jonas has to wait until Uncle Mike and Aunt Mary bring him home. He is so excited to meet his new little cousin, even if he thinks newborn babies look like aliens!





We love you, Hayden!

Zoo Time!

Some new zoo pics!



Happy Birthday Luke and Amelia!

We enjoyed celebrating Luke and Amelia's birthdays on Saturday. We had fun eating good food, playing games, and eating cake. Happy birthday guys!





Fantasy Island

The whole family headed out to Fantasy Island last week for some fun. Jonas was big enough to go on some more rides this year, although much to his disappointment, he still wasn't big enough for the roller coasters. 6 more inches!

The classics:



See that big kid in the tea cup with them? Jonas totally tried to fight him...he's not too smart.


Super cool motorcycle...had to ride it to be like Uncle Mike.



Had a bunch of fun in the water park. Jonas went down slides, played in the wave pool, and rode around the lazy river. Would've gotten more pics, but I was swimming too!


Enjoying the LOUD shootout!



One of the scariest rides of the day, and Jonas and Bethany both loved it!


Can't wait till next year!
