snow days

A few pics from our snow days.




Hanging out with Dad on the bed.





Hanging out on the coffee table. (Don't freak out, Granny. Matt was standing just outside the frame ready to catch him if he started to roll.)



This is all we got of the snow. I actually forgot we were supposed to be getting snow photos, and zoomed in too much. When your child can't quite sit up on his own (and certainly not in the snow), snow photos aren't so fun. Jonah was NOT feeling it.


****************************
Jonah slept ALL NIGHT last night (9 pm to 7 am) and did not even make a peep. And guess what else? He STILL ate 29 ounces today.

It's a Christmas Miracle!!!

My 3 year old son just said "That's Baby Jonah. He's sweet." I couldn't agree more! So happy for your Christmas miracle.

Hi Patrice-

He looks SO happy! Glad you and Matt have been able to get out for some date nights, too! Hope you have a restful night and a gush-free Tuesday.

Love from TX!

Kim and Asa said...

Hey Patrice, check out Gymboree! They have a onesie with an alligator on it that says "Feed Me"!! I thought of it for Asa but they didn't have it in his size here!

Asa doesn't eat either and I think it is would be so funny for him to have a shirt that says feed me! Ha!

Well, maybe it is just me!

anytime something good happens during the holidays my sister and I say, "It's a Christmas Miracle." It cracks us up. I got a nice little chuckle while reading!! I hope this string of good luck (or this "christmas miracle") continue!

I read often but don't comment much, but OMG Jonah is looking so gorgeous in those pics. I am jealous of the snow, Raleigh just missed out on it. What an AWESOME Christmas miracle. I am hoping he does the same tonight, would you even know how to act if you weren't sleep deprived, just think of the possibilities.... :) Merry Christmas to you and your sweet family!
