Jonathan Kyle Rose

Today Jonathan is 11 months old! only one month till we have had our little "Fuzzy" for a whole year!

Jonathan has grown so much! 

In Daddy's arms.!

Jonathan spent most of his first hours in daddy's arms. i only help him for about a minuets before Philemon had to hold him. i was super tired, and dehydrated, so daddy help our calm little boy while i rested before heading home.  then that whole night he was asleep in my arms. i couldn't let him go!

(then day two he was in his own cradle pushed away from our bed so i could get a little sleep) 

Jonathan has always been a mommy's boy...

he doesn't like me to leave him, though this is getting better as he gets older. 

he gets so excited when he sees me get out the "foby" (my wrap) because he knows that is his special cuddle time... i am sad, he is too big for it now, i tried it the other day, and he's not just too heavy, i cant even tie it all the way any more. so i think i will be looking into an ergo soon. 

Jonathan is learning so much! he is just about walking! he is super cautious about it, so he just scoots his foot, then the other. but i think by his birthday he will be walking. 

i cant believe that he is talking so well already! he is saying some words as clearly as James can... he will copy just about anything he hears... 

but his solid words are. "kitty, bye, hi, no, touch (don't touch), and maam (yes mam). 

his phrase as of late is "hi dad" then he screams in joy and bolts to dad when he walks in the door. (or pretty much any other time he sees him:)

he eats every solid food imaginable, but is a little skinny. we were asked to try formula to fatten him up, but he wont take it, so if i can get him to drink other brands, i might just have to go with my mommy instincts, and just decide he will be tall and thin like dad.:) im not worrying too much about it.. i will know more when they call me with his iron levels. 

Jonathan is a happy, oh so funny boy who loves just about everyone when he isn't tired and wanting mommy. i cannot wait to see what the Lord has in store for him, and i pray i do not get in the way of that. :)
