Special days for a special J

Since we are getting closer to D-day (5 1/2 wks at most!) I have really been wanting to spend some extra special time with Jonah. I know our world will change (for the better) when Fisher arrives, and I just want to soak up all the Jonah B I can until the madness starts. I want him to know how special he is. Maybe he's still too young to understand all this, but it's really important to me. Derek was off for MLK so we took off for a fun filled day. We actually had a few errands to run all over town, then we ended with Davenports (YUM) and Botanical Gardens. It's just been so cold this winter that when we had a day that Derek was off plus decent temperatures plus bright sunny skies...how can you not get outside? J had fun just running around being a boy. He was picking up sticks and rocks and running wild. It such a nice place, not to mention free! We forget about it sometimes, though. Definitely worth heading over there!












That same day, he got a big boy car seat for Daddy's truck. He loves it :)


Our next adventure was to the circus!!! It was kind of a last minute decision. I just bought our tickets yesterday for the show today. I was a little worried about how J would do just sitting there watching, but it actually went better than I expected. We had some good seats on the end of the row, so we could escape if needed. We stayed through intermission for a total of 2 hours. Can't believe J sat for that long. He loved it when the elephants came out! He just clapped and said YAY!


A couple of the lions got a little testy during their performance. I got a little nervous for bit!
 


One of the many many snacks he ate. Kept him happy, though!



2 hours into the show and Jonah B couldn't take anymore. He kept nodding off in Daddy's lap. We left at this point, obviously. I would call his first Circus visit a definite success!!!

Now for some randomness...
He is my little bff! I just love being able to snuggle him so much!!!

He "helped" Daddy fix the door one day. He was just hammering away!


Jonah loves to hide under his tent :) We put this up one day and he took every single book he had under there plus a few more items. He then sat on all his books. He's such a goof!



Mommy and Daddy love Jonah B so very much!!!!
