Swimming at Gran's


We took Jonas to Mulberry and Fort Smith last weekend to see all of his grandparents and attend Levi and Kasey's (Jason's brother and future sister-in-law) wedding shower. While we were at Gran's house (Laura's mom), we decided to take Jonas swimming. Those are his 0-3 month swim shorts in the pictures. (They fall off of him, but they were so cute that we put them on him to swim anyway.) We swam around 10 o'clock in the morning, but the swim only lasted around 5-10 minutes. (We didn't plan on it raining the morning of our swim, and the water was very chilly). However, we think these pictures made the experience worthwhile.

3 Month Professional Pictures

Well, we went to JCPenney to get our pictures made on August 15th. I scheduled it in the morning because Jonas is usually wide awake and in a good mood in the mornings. And, my plan would have worked too. Unfortunately, we had to wait almost 30 minutes to get started. So, although Jonas was in a a great mood when we arrived at the store, he was screaming by the time we took the pictures. The photographer was great though. She worked and worked with him until he at least looked like he was happy, and then she would snap the picture. (This usually involved giving him his paci until the last second, which is why he has pursed lips in most of the pictures.) Anyway, these three were the favorites of the day.

The Latest











Well, we haven't updated for a couple of weeks, so let me give you the latest. Jonas spent last weekend with his Nana and Grandpa in Fort Smith because Laura went shopping in Branson and Jason had his Blessings national conference. We were told it went well and that he was a good boy all weekend. We know that he had LOTS of visitors! Laura started back to work on Wednesday of this week, so Jonas spent Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday with Michelle Langford who will be keeping him during the day. She reports that it is going well. We took Jonas to the Tontitown Grape Festival last night. He was so good (and we had to wait in line an hour to get our spaghetti dinners)! Jonas is getting bigger and more active by the day, and now he likes to sit in his Bumbo seat. These pictures are of him playing in his Bumbo seat last week.
