First day with Dad....need some time to recover

After spending the day with Dad, Mom arrived home and headed to the Memorial Union on Lake Mendota. Jonas was able to clear out everyone from the Terrace so that he had the whole area to himself. It was an impressive bit for a nine-week old.

Crys, Hats, Dogs, Mittens, Walks, Dinos, Smiles, and Friends,

Happy? Halloween

Jonas finally realized there was a mobile on top of his swing!

Baby bedhead

Jonas has been sleeping like a champ at night (knock on wood). His newest trick is when he wakes up in the morning. He makes little cooing noises and I go in and say, "Good morning sweet pea" and he gives me a smile. Who could resist this little bedhead?

Get your walk on...

A favorite part of the day for the whole family is the daily walk. Here we are in Hoyt Park.

Grandparents visit

It was a busy weekend with all the grandparents visiting. We also celebrated aunt Ashley's birthday a few days early.

Guy Smiley

Finally a real smile caught on film. Happy hump day everyone!

(S)Milestones

Jonas started smiling this week, but usually only on the changing table. Apparently a fresh diaper can feel THAT good. His smile is so elusive that the only picture we've been able to get is blurry and post full-grin, but here it is nonetheless. He also gurgles and coos a bit, pays attention to the cats and dogs if they walk by close enough, and likes to chew his hand while laying on his stomach. Small events to be sure, but big news when not a whole lot else is goin' on!
