Visitors

Jonathan's first visitors were Suzanne and Zeffie (from my work). Just as they were leaving my mom and sisters showed up. They brought balloons and a nice goodie bag. Here are some pictures of each of them with him:





He is a Cougar fan already!!!

Home From the Hostpital!!

Here is the little man coming home from the hospital:




First item of business... nap with daddy!

Grandma Comes to Town!!!!

My mom came to stay with us the first week Jonathan was home. It was so great having her there. She is a natural with babies. We had so much fun! We sure do love and appreciate you grandma!!!



Here we gave him his first sponge bath (he can't have a real bath until his umbilical cord falls off). He seemed to enjoy it (until the end that is)!





Meeting Some Cousins

Tina ran a marathon on Saturday, October 8th. What a great feat! On Sunday we brought Jonathan up to my parents' house so he could meet some of his cousins. Most of them took turns holding him. They all loved "Jo-Jo" so much.






Look how good Tina looks! We are so proud of her!!!

At Home Photo Shoot

One morning my mom and I tried our own little photo shoot of Jonathan. Here are some that I liked... but none of them compare to what Victoria did (see next post):






Newborn Photo Shoot

My good friend Victoria (who also did our wedding pictures) came over Friday, October 7th and Monday, October 10th to take some newborn photos. Friday was Jonathan's very first time staying awake for 3 hours after he ate... so we weren't able to get all of the pictures she wanted. After trying to get him to sleep for 3 hours Victoria left and scheduled to come back again on Monday. We had her come in the evening so he would be sure to be asleep... and he was! Here are some behind the scenes pictures:



And here is a link to her website with a sneak peek of the pictures:

We love how they turned out!

Grandparents!

October 12-15 Michael's mom and step-dad came to town to visit. We stayed up at my parents' house and had a blast. Here are some pictures of the proud grandparents:




Jonathan loved getting to spend time with each of them. Thank you for coming out Grandma Patricia and Grandpa Jim
