The Jonah returns to a mobile Bean...



Jonah came home on Mothers day! It was FANTASTIC! He was excited to see us but promptly told me that now we all needed to get back on the airplane and go back to the beach. He has been great with Nina even though now that she's mobile she gets into everything he has.


Nina is 7 months old now, and has mastered crawling. She's now attempting cruising, and even has been brave enough to let go a few times. She still has the biggest personality I have ever seen in a baby and loves to sing. She is a born Drama queen. Jonah will start Pre-School in the fall and has been practicing at Church school. He LOVES it. This next Sunday he will be singing with the class in front of the 8:30 mass. He's so excited he practices his song almost all day.

The bean can move...



Well it's all over. The bean (Nina) has perfected crawling. She in now terrorizing the Pugs. She has officially beat Jonah's record by almost 2 months. She now is working on the furniture cruising. It seems that, like Jonah, crawling is just not fast enough for her. She now pulls up and cruises anything and everything she can reach. Her personality comes out more everyday. She is definitely a people person. Today we went to an Antique and Quilt show. More people were looking at here than the quilts. She caught everyones eye and immediately smiled that irresistible smile she has. Every person that walked past us had to stop and talk to her, confirming our suspicions that she is going to be "that girl". She's the best.

Jonah's Beach








Jo is having a blast in Myrtle Beach. I talk to him twice a day. He called this morning and woke up Daddy, just like every Saturday. When he's here he usually jumps on him. Literally, jumps on him. This morning he screamed "wake up daddy!!!" over the speaker phone. It worked. Mig was up in no time. He has learned how to make sandcastles, and tells me he has a big seashell for baby sisser. As of yesterday the count on chicks was Jonah 3 1/2 - Papa 1 1/2.
