J.W. charms Nevada City!

Two weeks ago Jonathan and I took a plane down to see family in Nevada City, California. It was baby John's first plane ride and he did fabulous! The flight attendants got a kick out of seeing his flirtatious smiles.
JW (thats what everyone in norCali is calling him :-)) got to see Grammy JoanE, great grandparents Nana and Bebop, Uncle Jarrod and Auntie Holly, and many other friendly faces. It was a special trip because my brother Jarrod, who is in the Army stationed in Afghanistan, was home for two weeks. We had a lot of fun getting family and friends together for mexican food (16 of us!), and going to Holly's house for a great Italian dinner that her mom cooked.

JW was mesmerized by Bebop's donald duck impersonations and Nana's sparkly glasses. He loved playing with his Grammy JoanE. He had so much fun playing with Grammy's tambourine. This kid loves to make loud noise!
It was sad to say goodbye to Nevada City for now, but little John Wesley will be back!

In the past two weeks we have been feeding Jonathan solid foods. He seems to love the carrots best, mmmm! John is also rolling over and getting good at sitting up. He's growing so fast...
