Jonah's first haircut!

Jonah's hair had gotten too long.  We wanted to wait to cut his hair until he turned one, but he was looking like a little shaggy.  He was great and sat in my lap the entire time.  Here are the pictures from this morning:

5th Year Wedding Anniversary

Last weekend Josh and I celebrated our fifth year wedding anniversary.  My mom rushed up to Pinedale to take care of Jonah (dad joined her once finished with work) for the weekend.  We traveled to Dubois, Wyoming to check it out and stay at a bed and breakfast.  We had a wonderful and relaxing weekend.  The best.  We ate great food, met crazy locals at the bar, slept in, took naps, and went on an awesome bike ride.  Here are a few pics.

 

Father's Day, 2010

We recently celebrated Josh's first Father's Day.  We had a great day with our friend Shannon visiting us.  I made Josh breakfast and then we spent the day tooling around Pinedale and being together.  Here are a couple of pictures of Jonah helping his dadda open gifts.  Milli was getting in on the action too!

 

Exciting times...

As I write this update, I am listening to Josh play with Jonah in the living room and Jonah is clearly saying "mama"!  Jonah is now 10 months and 3 weeks.  We can't believe the little boy he is becoming.  He is learning so many new things.  He loves to stand and practice walking.  He talks, and I swear he said "nanna" a couple mornings ago when I was making him breakfast.  He is clapping and doing "arms up."  So fun!  Soon he will be walking and turning one...can't believe it.

As some of you may have heard, I did not get either of the teaching jobs here in Pinedale (but came in a strong 2nd for both).  It was heart breaking because I am so eager to become a teacher but I feel fortunate to continue to stay home with Jonah.  I do have a job serving tables 3 nights per week at the brewery.  The tips are fantastic, so if nothing else comes along, this will provide us with the desperately needed money, me adult time, and Josh one-on-one time with Jonah.

Last week, my mom, Jonah, and I went to Denver to visit and help my Oma and Opa.  Although it can be hard to see them aging, we had a good visit.  Here are a couple of pictures.  One with Oma, Great Oma, and Great Opa, and the other is Jonah in his pool.

Thank you Jo!

I have failed to post a thank you to our nanny, Jolayane, who took care of Jonah while I student taught from January through April.  Jo and her husband have moved to Casper, and we want to wish them the best of luck, and we miss them!
