it's been awhile!

so it's been A LONG time since i have posted on here... here are a few pics from the last two months. there have been two birthdays, family visits, trips to the beach, a first haircut, lots of 1 year old curiosity and... mmmm.... probably a lot more...

Lucas' first encounter with sand. LOVED IT!

there is A LOT of this going on ALL day long :)

haircut & cereal

this is pretty funny because.... Jonah REALLY doesn't like Lucas to touch him OR his things, but in the pic Jonah is in a dead sleep and Lucas is having SO much fun crawling all over hm. Lucas LOVES his big brother.

yes... this IS Jonah.
Nate decided he was going to attempt to cut Jonah's hair, it was getting in his eyes and he was looking pretty scruffy. so they went out on the deck with 3 different tools to get the job done. the haircut was looking pretty good. it was almost finished and Nate was touching up the back with the buzzer and took it a little too far..... so he decided to buzz his whole head! i stopped him mid stroke - told him he couldn't do it THAT short!! so Jonah has a strip in back that is almost totally to the skin. poor guy looks like he just had surgery! he loves the new cut (and he hasn't seen the back :) he says "Papa made my hair fuzzy with the buzzer!" i think he looks like a totally different kid!

and Lucas.... sweet Lucas is 6 months!! he had his first taste of rice cereal and loves the stuff. my content chubby baby has turned into a MOVER. he was scooting at 5 months and today started full on crawling up on his knees. jeez! my boys have energy!

super hero

Jonah was so inspired by his cousin's batman cape and mask that when we got home from our trip, he REALLY wanted a cape and mask....
so we ended up with this...

cousins

we have been out of town a lot this summer (good thing, cuz summer is NOT in Humboldt these days!) one of our trips was up to Medford to visit the family. my brother and my nephew came out - was SO great to see them. the boys had a good time playing together& was fun for me to see the cousins together. here are a few pics of the week.

july 4

4 months!

Baby Lucas is 4 months today! he must have known because he rolled over from his back to his belly today for the first time - he is so old! this baby is pure delight - so full of sweetness and smiles. can't get enough of him. oh... and he is a thumb sucker. nothing like a good self-soother!

recent happenings

my boy looks SO OLD!

love love love my new double jogger.... gives me more freedom to get up and go. (notice - they were both sleeping at the SAME TIME!)

drums are a favorite around here - everything Jonah touches turns into drums or a guitar. our boy is quite musical. we love Ben, he is one of our weekly play dates.
