Family Pictures

These were actually taken about 2 months ago now but I haven't posted them yet so... here you go!

6 Months

Jonathan is 6 months old now and I can't beileve how much he's changing!!! We had his check up yesterday and he wieghed in at 18 lbs 2 oz and he is 27 1/4 inches long. He is tall and slender. The picture on the bear rug was taken two days ago. The nurse at the public health clinic has similar pictures of other babies she treats and she asked us to send her one of Jonathan. So, next time we go in, Jonathan's bear rug picture will be on the wall too!

I'll have to get some more pictures of Jonathan soon... he is sitting up and playing by himself really well! He loves books, the cats and his daddy! He still doesn't nap very well but he is a pretty happy baby so that's okay. We got him a high chair on our last trip to Anchorage and he really likes it. He can sit in the high chair in the kitchen with me while I cook or do dishes and he's just as happy as can be.

New Pictures

I have posted a bunch of new pictures to my facebook so I thought I should add ehte links to the albums in here. There are pictures of... Jonathan's First Glacier Cruise Jonathan's first time swimming and A few other miscellaneous pictures from late this summer I will also add a little video of Jonathan in the pool... by the way... he LOVED it!!!

VBS

Vacation Bible School is over for 2009. I think everything went really well and we ended up with 38 different kids. Not as big as some years but we had 15 kids that have never been to our church before. I have posted a lot of pictures on my facebook... here is the link to the first set, second set

And since I can't get the rest of the pictures to load right now... here is Jonathan the gardner and Friday's decorations. Friday's story was the Resurrection so the teacher was supposed to be dressed like a gardner.

Four Months Old

Jonathan is now four months old. Time sure is going by fast!!! He had his well baby check on Wednesday and he weighed in at 15.5 lbs and was 25.5 inches long. He is very healthy and she was really impressed with how much he was doing physically. He has started rolling over and he reaches for EVERYTHING! He really like to be where ever we are and he loves to be involved with what we're doing.

We are coming up on Vacation Bible School next week and I think we're almost ready. We've been having work nights, every Monday night for the past month and I feel like the decorations are coming together... I guess we'll know by this time next week.

are a couple videos from last week. Brian's mom was playing with Jonathan during a VBS work night.

Pictures from the boys' dip netting trip to Chitna - they didn't get any fish this day but the seemed to have a good time anyway.
Pictures from the 4th of July and other miscellaneous times in July (including our first try at eating cereal).

Here is a video of Jonathan "talking"... I think it's pretty cute.

Teen Camp

I realized that I didn't post any pictures from Teen Camp so here they are...

The kids had so much fun and the preaching was fantastic! All the kids have already asked if we're going back next year. The best news of all is that we had three teens from our youth group accept Christ as their personal Savior. Praise the Lord!!!
