2nd Birthday part I

Tessa and I think that we require two celebrations of our birth each year. We managed to accomplish it this year by have a joint party in between our actual birthdays. That meant that we had to do something else on the actual day of our births. Pretty smart huh? These are shots from the joint birthday festivities.

Getting ready for our cupcakes!

Resting up for round 2!

2nd Birthday Part 2

So this is how I celebrated my actual birthday. Mommy made me ice cream cupcakes (really cold and oh so sweet!) and I opened some presents. It was a nice day. I wish we could have cake everyday. I love cake! And ice cream! I'm getting hungry just thinking about it. I gotta go find me a treat!

I can't wait until next year! Since I'm turning three, I should get 3 parties. I need to talk to Tessa about this plan...

Just funnin'

We have been having fun around the Pittman crib.

Jonah is getting wrapped up in his work.

Being sweet!

More sweet:)

Daddy is getting Jonah started early.

Just in case you forgot what Mommy and Daddy look like.

Zippers are yummy!

No, I'm not running over Shep. Pictures can be misleading sometimes (thanks, Mom!).

Like Jonah's hat? He borrowed it from Tessa Sink:)

I got Daddy's flexibility.


This is me on St. Patrick's Day. Nuff said...

And here Jonah goes again!

Almost crawling

Here is how Jonah spent the snow day today:)

Jump around!

Jonah likes to play in my old bouncy swing. Take a look...

Edmond Hillary eat your heart out!

I began my ascent from basecamp of the yet unexplored Eastern face of Mount Cribcouchandstuff. The early stages were easy-going.

Fair weather was with me as I continued my climb.

As I neared the summit, I contemplated putting on my boots while my Sherpa (aka Daddy) looked on from far below.

I was now at the point of no return, without oxygen I forged ahead, occassionally casting my glance to other distant summits, and Mommy with a camera.

Triumphantly, I reached the apex of my climb. From atop the world, I felt so small, yet so big at the same time. In the end, when asked why I climbed it, I say 'simply because it was there'.



OK, so we got this disassembled crib, probably for Jonah, and its pieces lay in the living room. Mommy and Daddy were talking about whatever it is grownups talk about when they looked over to see me scaling the crib parts and other stuff.

Jonah likes to "move it, move it!"

Jonah has recently started scooting. And boy does he scoot!

Mommy puts him in the middle of his blanket and before you know it...

He has gone off the grid!

He has started playing with all of my toys.

He jumps in my old bouncy swing...

But I don't mind because sometimes he scoots to get to me!

Visitors

Grandma and Grandpa Schneider (and Uncle Ben) came to visit us at the end of February. It was fun to see them.

Grandpa Bob read me a story...


Jonah and Grandpa exchanging hair styling tips...

Uncle Ben stinks at playing games, no wait...Uncle Ben stinks while playing games.

Jonah wearing Uncle Ben's clothes and Uncle Ben wearing Jonah's hat.

Meanwhile back at the Pittmans...

I keep everyone in check at home.



I make sure that Jonah's teeth are coming in.



I compare his "teeth" to mine (my are much sharper).

I share my toys with Jonah.

I read my favorite book (I Went Walking) to the family.

Shep helps me keep track of Daddy.

It is a lot of work keeping track of the family.

But I am up to the challenge!

Some day soon, Jonah will help me out.

Until then, I will do what I can. I've gotten good at training them.;)

PJs...we don't need no stinkin' pjs!

Mommy and Daddy put me into bed tonight and I decided that I didn't like the pajamas that they had picked out for me. So I took the matter into my own hands...(This was an hour and a half after they had put me to bed:)

Watch me work

This is how Jonah gets around. He really scoots. He's going to be crawling before too long!

Home movies

Here are some videos for those who have spare time...

Family play time

Jonah playing with Shep

Jonah likes to play with anything he can get his hands on.

We like to play together. Mommy says that we are sweet:)

Its been awhile...

So I haven't been blogging much lately because me, Jonah, Mommy, and Daddy haven't had a very healthy February. We're hoping March is much better:) That doesn't mean that there are no pictures from the last few weeks; here are a few favorites.


Jonah sucks his thumb now. Grandma says that's what Mommy did when she was a baby.


Catching up on my reading (check my toes; maybe I should consider being a dancer).

This shirt is one that Jonah got from Uncle Ben. Daddy called Jonah his "little old Man".

I can't believe that they took this picture! This is me after getting my pigtails taken out.

Then this is how I looked in the morning.

Looking very smiley (like usual).


Trying to lift this heavy waterbottle!

What a charmer!

Jonah and his Giraffe bedtime buddy.

I'm awesome!

And now a posting from Jonah...
Yesterday I became an ambi-roller (I can roll from my tummy to my back and my back to my tummy). Today, Mommy caught it on film.
