Next Year? Mommy's Angel.

But this year for Halloween he was Mommy's monster.

Happy Birthday to Us!

Monday, on our way home from day care I sang 'Happy Birthday to Us'. My 34th year and Jesse's 8th month. He's learned way more in the last month than I have in the last year. lol. He can sit up great, babbles a ton, and can even try to feed himself. What is the best new thing that Jesse has learned you ask? How to gut laugh :)

The Buster

Jesse has such a personality already. We are having a ball getting to know him. And even more fun teaching him about the world around us. Everyone was right. It only gets better.

Half a Year!

Time seems to be going so fast. I look back at the pictures from the start of this blog, and I now fondly remember when Jesse was a black and white ball on the monitor. I am also fondly remembering all of the sleep I got even when 8+ months pregnant.

Jesse now has his first tooth. He eats enormous amounts of baby food. And occasionally sleeps through the night. He rolls, scoots, drools, and chews on everything. And he smiles. Wow, can he smile.



Hanging out with my cousin Tori.


Bumpa sure makes some funny noises.


Gotta love Grandma.


Having lunch on the lake with the Ohio Munson's.


Visiting with the sweet Cuff girls. They are always watching out for me at day care.


Oh, and of course I love Daddy.


Action shot - mid roll. Using the tongue for stability.


Why are you taking a picture mom? I am ready to eat.


Jillian always takes such good care of me.

Hog Roast '09

We made the trek to Ohio with our baby and pop up in tow. It was a hot weekend, but we had so much fun relaxing and visiting with family. Thanks to the Ohio Munson's for all of the food, fun & hospitality!

Month 5

Jesse has been keeping us busy. He's giggling and babbling a ton. It is so fun to see him learn & grow. He is light of our days.

Almost 5 Months

It is so cool to see how much changes with Jesse in just a month. Last post, I could hardly imagine a baby that would eat cereal and sit in an exer-saucer. Yet here we are. We took Jesse for his first camping weekend. Thankfully we had the pop-up (with heater) since high temps were in the upper 60's. We had such a lovely weekend with lots of friends. Jesse loved watching the other kids to see what he had in store in the coming years. And Bob and I love watching the other parents to see what WE had in store in the coming years. A few pictures to document yet another AWESOME month....
