Lately, lots of people have encouraged Mommy and Daddy to allow me experiment with cereal. Mommy wanted to wait 6 months. I'm not sure why, and I don't really think she is either. I guess it sounded like a noble goal at the time. . . Anyway, Grams told Mommy that she noticed me studying big people while they eat and said she's sure I'm ready to try. . . Mommy began to notice too once Grams pointed it out, so Sunday on my 20 week birthday Mommy and Daddy gave me my first bowl of cereal. They were surprised by how I well I did!

Mommy's New Hair and Lots of Jonah. . .

Saturday, I played with my cousin, Dawson, while Aunt Sarah cut Mommy and Gram's hair.

BEFORE:

AFTER:

God gave me feet exactly like Daddy's . . . Mommy thinks they're the cutest she's ever seen! :)

Bath time. . .

Tuesday, we went to Nannie and Pa's house so I could help Pa reload the ink on his printer. . . Good thing I'm so technologically savvy! What would he do without me?

Nannie thanked me by giving me my first lolly pop. . . As you can see by my expression, I had never tasted anything quite like that before. :)

a glimpse of week 19

Mrs. Angela let me borrow Bri's activity saucer. I've been using it to study my letters, colors, and shapes! :)

Monday night, Mr. Jeremy and Mrs. Lindsey came over for dinner. They're having a little girl in December, so Mr. Jeremy was using me to practice carrying a baby! :) We really enjoyed their company!

As you can see, I'm getting very strong. . . Holding my head up is a breeze now. I'm also rolling over more consistently, but Mommy hasn't caught it on camera yet. Sometimes in the night, she'll wake up and find me staring at the ceiling.

I wait all day for my Daddy to come home and greet him with squeels and giggles!! I tell him about my day using a very deep voice. One day Mommy will post a video of it . . .

Grams came over for dinner Tuesday night. I love it when she rocks me!

Grams bought me my very first Nuby! I LOVE IT! It makes me feel so big! Mommy filled it with water and Pedalite, and I was able to drink from it! Everyone watching was so impressed!

Gigi (Briley's grandmother) bought me so many cute outfits this week. I went shopping with she and Mrs. Angela while Mommy worked on homework. We were overwhelmed by her generosity! I'm wearing one of them in the pic below.

Thursday we went to Mrs. Adrian's to celebrate Christmas in July! It was so much fun! Lots of moms and kids were there. We played in the water, opened presents, made Christmas cookies and decorations, and played with Cole's train. . . It was SO MUCH FUN! I can't wait till I'm big enough to really participate!

Thursday night, Mimi and Popi took me to the information session for Uncle Eric's senior trip. Popi pushed me in the swing while the meeting was going on. It was SO relaxing!

Mommy thought I looked really cute this morning in one of the outfits Gigi bought me, so she decided to take a hundred pictures of me. :)

LoTs of JoNaH. . . :)

Sorry it's been so long since our last post. Mommy crashed our computer again, and it took Daddy a few days of trial and error to fix it. I think her desperate attempt to capture every detail of my life is taking a toll on our hard drive! :)
