Birthday!

One more post- before school starts! ha- these are photos from Jonah's birthday party which we did the weekend before we left for New Hampshire- we had almost 25 people crammed in our little house luckily many of them were little and we all had a great time. I made a pumpkin apple cake with tofu frosting since Jonah can't have any dairy products which actually went over pretty well. He received lots of wonderful gifts from folks and seemed to enjoy all of the company. What a difference a year makes- it was neat to remember back to the major snowstorm which was about to hit Olympia, and just how ready I was not to be pregnant anymore. Amazing! Happy Birthday to our most curious, adorable boy!

New Hampshire

It was lovely to be home for the holidays. Jonah did really pretty well on the plane rides and we managed to dodge two major storms - phew! We had a lovely time cross country skiing all over my parents property (sometimes with Jonah) and took the little guy sledding for his first time - he didn't even know it though because he was sleeping. It was great to also visit with my grandmother who this year turned 94- so wonderful to have so many generations together. We ate like royalty and thoroughly relaxed- tomorrow off again to work and Tuesday school begins but until then- happy holidays to all!

Jonah discovered that he loves to eat pickles and popcorn much to our surprise and he looks absolutely adorable I think in his santa suit which he wore on the big day- thanks Gramms for sending that one along! The top picture of Jonah was taken after his very first bite of shrimp cocktail- is there anything he wont eat? I have yet to find it.

Beach time

A quick little video from our trip to the beach today and a promise to post lots of pictures from our trip to New Hampshire soon- we arrived home last night and had the most wonderful time- missing home and family a lot now! It was so great to be there for almost two weeks. Lots of love!
