Caleb's Pictures

Thank you Morgan! You always do a fantastic job! These pictures turned out BEAUTIFUL!


I was shocked that he smiled in these pictures! It was really cold and SO windy...but he was a trooper! Sweet little man!

Happy 1st Birthday Caleb!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY CALEB! We love you so much! It is hard to believe that a year has already gone by! You are such a love bug! I still find it hard to believe that a 10lb. 1 oz. baby boy came out of me!

You are such a fun little man! We love to watch you grow!

Your personality has changed so much in this last year! We love hearing you giggle and laugh!

We love your sweet little smile....

And your chubby squishy cheeks!

We love you sweet baby boy!

Happy 1st Birthday!

Busy Busy Busy

I feel like I haven't been able to do much of the stuff I normally do lately! School has taken over my life! My house is not what it used to be. I just have so much going on with my classes I feel like I can't keep up! UGH! Note to self: Next semster no more than 3 classes! Way too much to handle with two kids!

Any ways, lots has been happening. We took Jonah bowling for the first time a few weeks ago and he LOVED it!

Some of my family got to come with us and we had lots of fun! Something we totally need to do again!

We also got a new toy for Matt and I....A Wii! So much fun! Jonah loves it too. He is quite a golfer! It's really funny to watch him play all the different games.

He tires so hard. He also designed his own Mii....With the Wii you can make different players and I made all of Matt's family and all of my family with Jonah. Well, Jonah decided he wanted to make his own and it's a rather interesting character. He made himself "chocolate" as he calls it, with some makeup on his face. When ever he plays a game and goes to pick a character he says, "Mom, I want to be my chocolate self!" I don't know what to think about that one.....

My little man Caleb is WALKING! He is 11 months old and walking!

It makes me so sad! He is no longer my little baby :( He is pretty dang cute when he walks though. For some reason he does high knees. It looks like he is marching or something. He's so cute. I love that little guy. I have been really worried that he was going to be deveolpmentally behind because of what his ENT told me after he got his tubes. Since he got his tubes though he has advanced SO much. He is doing so good now. I love it.

I love this picture...That is Caleb's favorite face to make!

Well, the semester is almost done and things will get back to normal soon! Hope all is going well for everyone else!

Alright Caleb!

Caleb is finally standing on his own! He is getting so big! I can't believe he is going to be 11 months old on Friday! He is growing so fast and we love him so much!

Brothers

Here are some more cute pictures of my sweet boys. Thanks again to Morgan! I love them!

Just A Preview....

So it's late and I'm very tired but I had to put a few of these pictures up of Jonah and Caleb that Morgan took of them. They turned out sooooo good! I love all of them! I will post more later when I have more time, but I just wanted to get a few up here! Thank you Morgan! I love you!

I'm sorry....It's been a while

WOW is all I can say for what's been going on at the Johnson household these last few months. We have had a total of 3 surgeries in a month and a half, started school for Matt, myself, and our little Jonah, and celebrated another birthday for Matt! WOW!

I ended up having to get my gullbladder removed at the end of Decemeber after months of not knowing why I had a stabbing pain in my stomach...Let me just tell you how fun that was....not! After a couple of trips to the ER during the summer and fall months, the last doctor I saw was finally smart enough to do more than just blood work on me. They did an ultra sound and found that I had a TON of gullstones. I was scheduled for surgery soon after that and on December 28th I got to experience having surgery and leaving the hospital without a baby...Kind of weird for me considering I have had 2 c-sections! Any ways, the first few weeks were really hard. They told me I wasn't allowed to pick up anything over 15lbs for the first two weeks. HAHAHA! They didn't realize I had an eight month old who was over 20lbs that wasn't about to let that happen! So, recovery for me took a bit longer than expected, but I am now back to tip top shape! Thank goodness!

Next in line was Mr. Jonah.

Poor guy has not slept well his whole life, has had a hard time breathing, and developed sticking his tongue out the last few months (No not at me and Matt, just in general). We took him to the ENT for his regular check of his tubes and his doctor informed us that his tonsils were basically touching each other and that is why he can't sleep, has a hard time breathing, and has his tongue hanging out all the time. He said he needed to get his tonsils and adnoids out ASAP. So he was scheulded the next week to do that. He did pretty well with recovery and is now sleeping SO MUCH BETTER! It was hard for me the first night after surgery because I couldn't hear him snoring. I checked on him I don't know how many times, but now it is a beautiful thing not to worry about him at night.

Following that fun time, exactly one week after Jonah got his tonsils out, Caleb got tubes put in. We took him to the ENT because the poor guy has had 4 double ear infections in the last 6 months. NOT FUN! The doctor looked in his ears and said he needed tubes now. He said they looked really bad. He got him in the next morning and the surgery went very good. The doctor told me his ears were worse then he thought. His right ear was so bad it was blistering and bleeding inside. POOR BABY! Unfortunatly, the doctor thinks that because his ears were so bad Caleb's speech and hearing development are going to be affected. He said we won't be able to tell for a little while but he had been hearing "under water" for so long his development will most likely be delayed.

On the bright side though, Caleb is now responding to his name and it's only been a week since his surgery. He is responding to a lot more nosies now so that makes us VERY happy. We love our little guy!

On happier notes, Matt and I started school at UNR. Matt is almost done and I decided to go back this semester. Matt and I are having fun though because we get to take a couple of classes together! Also, Jonah started Preschool! He LOVES it! It makes me so happy because he is ok with being away from me now! LOVE IT!
We also celebrated Matt's 27th birthday!

OLD MAN! I love him so much! He was just switched to the morning shift at work also, so after three and a half years of him being gone at night, he is now home! We have dinner together now and we are all enjoying the time as a family!

I know this was a long post but so much has been going on! I will be better about posting....I promise!

P.S. If you can't tell by my music I have become a HUGE fan of Glee! LOVE IT!

Lots of Food and Big Boy Bikes

Not too much going on over here just some VERY cute growing boys! They are both growing like weeds! Caleb is now 7 months old and eating like a champ! He likes food....no he LOVES food!

If he doesn't get his normal 4 cans of size 2 baby food plus 4-5 6 oz. bottles a day....Let's just say we have one VERY grumpy boy. WOW! What am I going to do?! He LOVES to eat! He has just discovered how to drink from a sippy cup and has he enjoyed that!

It's like a whole other world of taste for him! Love that boy! Jonah is loving his latest birthday gift from Auntie Steph and Uncle Alex....his Incredibles bike!

It's a big boy bike with training wheels! He watches his movie on the bike, brushes his teeth on the bike, eats his snacks on the bike, and if he could figure it out I'm sure he would sleep on his bike! He keeps asking if he can wear his super cool cape that Auntie Mae Mae made him for his birthday while he rides his bike, but he can't because it's too long...:( He is always so heart broken!

Well, hope everyone is having a fabulous Holiday season!

Jonah's 3rd Birthday Bash!

I can't believe my little guy is 3! I know I said this before but it still has not registered with me yet! He is still my little baby! Any ways, enough with being a sappy little mommy and on to the PARTY! Jonah had lots of fun even though he wasn't interested in his presents AT ALL! He just wanted his plate and Chex Mix and he was fine! What a weirdo!


He did love it though when every one was singing Happy Birthday to him. Which I thought was weird because he is normally so shy I would have thought he would have been freaking out but he did the exact opposite! Nothing but BIG smiles!

Caleb also had LOTS of fun at his big brother's party.....

Little Chunky Monkey REALLY enjoyed his chocolate cupcake!

He LOVED his cupcake a little too much I think! He wanted MORE and MORE!
And this next picture is for you Auntie Mae Mae....You have been wanting to see this....

Caleb has REALLY bad bed head when he wakes up from his nap because it is getting so long, you can't see it too much in this picture, but if you know me you know I wouldn't let my baby boy out of the house with his hair looking like this. :) I know...I'm a weirdo.

Just a bit of a bump in the front, but he wouldn't let me take a picture of the back! That's where its REALLY good!

Sweet baby boy :)

I had to put this up too....For some reason my son has made this his trade mark. I don't know why because I am constantly wiping his face but he licks his lips and chin so much he ALWAYS has some type of ring around his mouth....With how much I am obsessed with keeping him clean it doesn't seem to work anymore. What's a mommy to do?
