Fun!

My big boy eating his first bowl of cereal! I know, that sounds kinda sad, but I've never given him cereal before. So, he was super excited to eat cereal like a big boy and he loved it!

Wearing Daddy's jacket and Mommy's red shoes (shoes are hidden under the jacket)

I LOVE my sweet boys in their matching ties! How cute are they?!?

We took the boys to the Wild Animal park a few weeks ago and found this baby cheetah in the nursery. She was so cute and if you look closely, you can see she is holding/hugging her stuffed animal!

Hanging out on the rhino. (No, he's not real!)

Jonah was dying to ride this motorized jeep thing. So we put the coin in and turned it on - it was the LOUDEST thing ever! It actually scared him and we all couldn't wait for the thing to stop working. We were actually looking for the cord to unplug it!

California Adventures

A few weeks ago we were able to get a really good deal on tickets to Disneyland and California Adventure. So we thought, why not?!? With the kids still being free, we thought we better take advantage of the offer while we can. So we used our California Adventure tickets and had a great day. It was still pretty cold, but thankfully there wasn't any rain. Jonah had a blast and loved going on all the cute kid rides. Henry was a good sport and went along too, although he didn't really care one way or another for the rides! We got to meet Mickey, Pluto, Mater and Lightning McQueen - Jonah was thrilled! They are still doing quite a bit of work at the park, so it seems to be getting better each time we go. I actually hadn't been there in several years, so it was nice to see the changes.

Loved the carousel ride - it was sea creature themed

Who is keeping who warm here?

Jonah on his throne



Getting ready for the Bugs Life 3-D show. Henry makes a pretty cute little bug!

Bug eyes on! Sadly, Jonah and Henry did NOT like this show. They both started crying when the gigantic black widow spiders dropped from the ceiling. We almost had to peel out of there early!

Jonah and Lighting McQueen (or the Race Car - as he calls it!)

Mater! Jonah was star-struck.

Driving his bumper flea. This was probably one of his favorite rides.


Meeting Pluto

Safari Mickey

Both boys loved Mickey. We were so lucky in getting to meet him. We just happened upon where they were hanging out and there was a tiny line. So we hopped in and got our pictures taken. About thirty minutes later, we walked by and the line was SUPER long! That makes up for the hour and half we waited to meet Mickey when Jonah was a baby. Oh, and we didn't even know we were in line to meet Mickey. We thought we were waiting to get out of his house in Toontown!

Hamster

My sweet little Hamster is nine months old! Where in the world did the time go? He is such a sweet, mellow and happy little boy. He loves his brother, he loves to smile and he sleeps through the night. God has blessed us in so many ways! He had his nine month check up a few days ago and as we all know, he was confirmed to be tiny. He weighs 16lbs and is 27 inches tall. Or he is in the 1% for weight and 12% for height. He is indeed, a little hamster. The doctor was concerned about his size, so we're doing all we can to fatten him up. Luckily, he is right on track for all his milestones. He's just tiny! (He's been wearing 3-6 month clothing for the past seven months!)

Here are a few pictures of him from the last month or so.

Dinosaur boy

Ready for surgery (he can even rock the hairnet!)

Begging to get his drivers license already!

Baby-in-a-box or Bun in the oven (this is the oven to Jonah's kitchen a la cardboard boxes)

Couple o' cool dudes

Stylish

Get a load of that tooth! Sorry for the chewed up crunchy. I was just excited to get the shot of his first tooth!

He is pulling himself up, standing, cruising and for a few seconds, standing on his own. This boy is ambitious.

Just so cute!

Happy boy
