can't decide...

 

 Jonathan will be ONE in a few weeks. I have been trying to design an invitation for his first birthday.

These are the 2 I have done so far. I can't decide which one I like more. I might try to play around a little more to see what else I can come up with!

 

all I want for Christmas....

Is this STROLLER-BIKE! This is amazing! Why didn't I think of that.. Santa, Please!

Oh dear....

My son, likes to push chairs around. Even at the ward party...

 My son, likes to push around my big bowl, even at the ward party... (don't worry it is empty) 

out of my way momma!!

Then, on Monday.... IT SNOWED! Yep, in VA Beach... they get snow! Amazing!  

 Jonathan's first snow, he was a little taken a-back when the snow flakes would hit his cute little face! So funny!!

This is Jonathan waking up from his nap, it takes him a little bit to adjust back to real life...

I love his messy hair! HA!

still tired!

 Jonathan is on his way to walking.... kinda. He can stand, but when he realizes he is standing he falls to him bum. Jon is oddly determined to get him to walk. Me, well.... he is already fast enough as a crawler, I can wait a little longer to chase after him as a "runner"

Jon training JB to walk....

Fall Photo Shoot!

We have a friend here in Virginia Beach who I found out takes pictures. She did our Premont Family picture back in the summer. Well I wanted a few pictures of my little family in the fall. Fall is so pretty here in Virginia! I had to capture it and put it in a picture!

My baby is 11 months old

 Yep! This kid turned 11 months old today! I can't believe it! I really can't believe how much fun we have together. 

at this stage, he is quite feisty. He sometimes doesn''t want to take his afternoon nap. He won't eat vegetables. He will spit them out when I sneak them in. but he will give you all the hugs and slobbery kisses you could want!

Santa?

I was at the mall a few weeks ago, and Santa looked bored (it was early November) So I thought Jonathan needed to meet the big man in red!

He was memorized by him! It was so cute to see him just stair at Santa.

Then I took him off of Santa's lap to try and get a few pictures with the decorations... no go. Plus now looking at the pictures, the decorates aren't so cute....

 Jonathan loves mirrors. He always waves at the "baby" in the mirror!

 Getting ready for church Jonathan playing before we head out!

 Here is the future great Pianist Jonathan!!

Just a cute picture of my boy!

Happy Thanksgiving!

 Thanksgiving was interesting this year. Jon had duty, so he had to be on the ship all day (actually 24 hours) But they invited the families to come aboard and have thanksgiving dinner with them! 

So Jonathan and I got dressed up and went to see daddy on the ship!

It was a very nice time, the food was good, they decorated for us and even put linens on the tables, and sprinkled candy all over the table! Jonathan loved that!

Here we are after dinner in the ward room, hanging out!

 , so

After duty, we were able to go up to Maryland for a family visit. It was my dad's birthday, so we had !to celebrate!

Jonathan LOVES to climb stairs, which is fine, but after the 500th time going up the stairs I get sick of it. So we built a barricade for him... didn't work... he broke through.. smart guy!

made it to the stairs!

 We went to dinner with everyone that evening to celebrate my dad's birthday! I'm still dreaming about my steak! Jonathan entertained everyone (even the waiters) 

Here we are playing with Jonathan! The girls had a good time with him, while the men watched football!

So tired, he fell asleep on grandpas lap

we had a nice thanksgiving weekend. We were able to meet up with

Grandma Bullough, Uncle Bed and Kym for an afternoon on Saturday! We always have a good time with them!! Looking forward to Christmas time!!!
