This has to be my favorite photo (to date) of Jonathon and Mommy. They look so much alike. This picture was taken on Jonathon's birthday. Jennifer had a c.d. on of children songs and then the "Cookie Monster" song came on and Jonathon just took right off laughing! He is starting his independent stage. With Heather and me being the parents, he dosen't stand a chance.

Oh...he has started giving kisses. We ask, "Can I have a kiss" and he opens his mouth wide and leans right over. Those are the best kisses (so far). Heather enjoyed them so much that I tried one on her. Come to find out, she only likes Jonathon giving those types of kisses.

Well, I'll know better next time. 

I sure do love fall! Two weeks ago, we went pumpkin picking at Cedar Circle Farms - what fun! We rode down to the pumpkin patch in a horse drawn wagon. We each picked our pumpkin - even Jonathon picked out his own!

Of course, fall in New England is short-lived. Since the time change, it has been amusing to me to wake up, roll over, and watch the birds through the bedroom windows. Imagine my surprise this morning when I rolled over to see my birds, and instead saw a hillside of snow-covered evergreens... I sure do love fall, but I sure can't wait to play with Jonathon in the snow either!

Jonathon is doing great. He's standing almost constantly it seems, and has become a regular little chatterbox. He's amused by everything (as always!), and especially loves to dance. He's definitely taken after his daddy - he's trying to kiss all the ladies. Of course, as mommy, I don't think there is anything more precious than those mouth-wide-open slimy kisses!!
