Jonah's Tub Time

Here is the first time that Jonah got to take a bath in a big tub.

How to love on a balloon

This kid is hilarious.

No Words Required

Do I really need say how cute and adorable my son is?  Nope it is all in the videos.

Pool Time

So this past weekend Jonah got to experience the big pool for the first time.

Down to the wire

So here we are one week away from my best friend's wedding.  I still have to write my best man speech and come to terms with the loss of my surrogate bachelor pad.  I am finding it confusing to be both happy and sad at the same time.  Maybe the sadness is more a fear of the unknown though.  I am not a fan of change and this is one of the ultimate changes.  The wife to be seems cool but one can never tell what a spouse will truly be like until after the marriage ceremony is done.  I think this will be a nerve-racking week.  I guess I should at least remind myself that I am already in a wonderful marriage.

Jonah's Easter Exploits

Fun at the Zoo!!!

 We were lucky enough to go to the zoo for military appreciation day.  Jonah had so much fun!  I cannot wait until he is older and can really start to enjoy the zoo.

The end of the week

Phew!  This has been a tough week.  I hope next week will be a little easier.  I have to create a web page this week so here is hoping I can do it.  My grandma comes into town this week so that makes me feel better.  She will get to meet Jonah for the first time.

Pardon my naked baby in the Bath

So here is what mommy has to deal with every night.  A wild child playing in the water.  I know it is bad when she calls in the reinforcements(me) to assist.

Random Jonah video

Here is Jonah watching the movie Breakin' with me.  Boy he was getting into it!

Watching daddy do situps

Jonah seems to love watching me do push ups and sit ups.  Here is a little tidbit of that.

The next generation of Rush fan

Here is Jonah wearing his Rush shirt.  It is good to carry on the legacy of awesomeness.

Jonah's first food outing. Sweet Potatoes

Baby Form of Daddy!

My son never ceases to amaze me.  He has now started to say daddy.  Granted it actually comes out like da dy I get the message loud and clear!  Here is proof of his continuing awesomeness.

My Goofy Son and His Tongue

This is what happens when a child learns to use their tongue.

Winter Wonderland

So day 2 of the blizzard of 2011 has come and gone.  It was a fun day.  I finally got out of the house and went to help my peeps shovel their driveways.  It was exhausting but I felt pretty good afterwards.  My hands and arms do not appreciate me now hours later.  My son is still sick with his cold.  He sounds terrible one minute and then the next he is fine.  The other day I actually witnessed his first snot filled loogy.  It was massive!  I would have never thought that a 5 month old could hawk a loogy but boy he sure did.  Unfortunately, I then had to clean it up.  It looks like tomorrow will be another cold and snow logged day but I will probably venture forth into it anyways.  Heres hoping I do not get stuck.

Day of the Sick

Well today was an uneventful day of both Rebecca and Jonah trying to get over being sick.  The poor little guy has spent the past two days puking and having diarhea.  I stayed up with him last night to make sure we was safe.  I will say though that I have never had an easier time staying awake.  When it comes to my son everything for him is simple.  I went to a funeral yesterday and that was tough.  I hate going to funerals of people that are my parents age.  All it does is remind me that they are getting older and closer to the inevitability of death.

Tuesday: Day of Tuesdayness

So I have to say that this week has been tough so far.  Starting it off with the death of a friend's father was not what I had in mind.  It has a powerful way of reminding you that one day my own parents will die too.  On another note, I found out that I have antibodies in my system that decided to make my life miserable.  Stupid body you go squish now.  Today I saw Coach Switzer at Zane's meat market.  Man I am so close to finishing my Rush album collection.  I am almost down to only the expensive ones.  I did hear though that some albums are going to be redone this year so I will be patient and wait.

Hump Day Awesomeness

So I finally got to see the allergy doctor today.  It was an interesting visit.  I found out that I am not allergic to my house so thank God I am back at home.  I am also not allergic to wheat to I do not have to stop eating bread.  The doc thinks I might have some rogue antibodies causing problems in my body.  I had blood drawn to check some things out.  I will wait patiently for the results and in the meantime enjoy the drugs he put me on.  In other news Jonah has achieved two firsts.  He has said his first real word and of course it was "mom"!  He also held his own bottle of milk when I fed him.  I was so proud of him!  He just reached up and took hold of it from me.  Tomorrow looks to be a fun day.  We shall see how white the area is tomorrow for Tony's birthday.

Whose got a case of the Mondays?

Well today was a interesting day.  It was good because it was MLK day but on the other hand I worked on homework and went to a funeral viewing.  I am also super itchy and I am not sure my idea about it being wheat bread is the winner.  All I know is that this sucks!  Just two more days till my appointment.  Lets hope they can give me some answers.

Day 2......sort of

So this is the first of many times I will probably forget to make a post for a day.  Blogging is new so I will get used to it.  It was a rough day with my allergy but I have a new possible culprit.  I think I might be allergic to something in wheat bread.  It seems to be one of the things that has changed in my life since this started.  It is tough because I want this to be the thing causing my problems but then if it is I will have to be careful what I eat from now on.

Day 1 is over

So the day is over and I am not happy.  I am staying at my mom's house until my allergy test appointment next week and yet I have started to break out.  It is so frustrating to not know what is causing this.  Mom says to distance myself from anything related to my house so that means no body wash or shampoo from home.  I also washed all my clothing too.  Arghh!  Looking back at the day I have learned not to go to Cimmarron Steak House for dinner.  It is way to busy.  I hope I am not so itchy tomorrow.  Wednesday can not come soon enough.

Gonna get my blog on!

So in honor of my having to take a class this semester about blogging, I have decided to start my own blog.  I will seek to remain honest and sincere to myself and post the day's awesomeness.
