Adam's teeth

Adam now has 5 teeth! I have been wanting this picture since his top right tooth came in before the ones in the middle. I call him snaggle tooth. He has been great while teething- no drooling or fussing. Such a sweet kid. He had his 9 month check up last week and weighed in at 21 lb, 6 oz (65th%)and 29 inches(95th%). He is getting ready to walk, but prefers to crawl. He is waving bye and saying "ba" when Mike leaves for work. He loves to clap when we sing "When you're Happy and You Know it."

4th Picture in 4th Folder Tag

I like this tag since it isn't hard to do. I posted 2 pictures because the first is so lame. It is a work picture that Mike took of a fountain he was repairing and it ended up on our home computer. The second was in the same folder but the 4th of family pictures. It is April 2007 and we are at the Dallas Zoo. Jonas had a field trip for 1st grade and we tagged along. Clara is posing with Mike. The funny thing is that Clara's is going to the zoo next week for her 1st grade field trip!

Jonas is doing really well. He was baptized this summer. He started cub scouts and has earned his Bobcat, some belt loops, and is really close to earning his Wolf. We did a mock volcano expulsion which was a birthday present from Aunt Amy. He loves to play outside riding bikes or having Star Wars battles. We took out our pool this summer and now have a large sand pit where the kids like to play. I also put Jonas is our big tree for the first time. He was so funny trying to get down. It was about six feet. He is a great kid and doing really well in 3rd grade. He has discovered that he likes techno music. He lets his Pokemon game play on his Nintendo DS while he reads.
