Changes

Justin has gone through so many changes this past month. We now have a thumb-sucker and a big boy who's eating cereal and veggies. We didn't want to give him solids until he was older, but the doctor said he's practically big enough to be a 6 or 7 month old baby. He loves it!

4 Months Old

Justin turned 4 months on January 4th....he's growing up so fast! At his 4 month check-up he weighed 16 lb 7 oz and was 26" long. He's definitely a Parsons!!!

A big thanks to the Davis family! Go Cavaliers!

The Park

Okay...these are really late, but wanted to get them posted for you to see. This was Justin's 1st trip to the park...on New Year's Eve!!! He liked the swing but didn't know what to think of the slide. Nana Jones and friends from VA (Wendi, Jake, and Zachary) came along to play while the big boys (Jason and Jack) played golf at TPC Sawgrass. It was a fun day!

Baby's 1st Christmas-Part 2

We continued our Christmas when Grandma & Grandpa Parsons and Uncle Joe arrived on Christmas Eve. It was great to wake up Christmas morning and share this special time with our family. Justin opened more gifts and had fun taking in all the new sights and sounds. After gifts, it was off to the kitchen for me. For those of you who know me well, you know I don't cook. Well, my gift to everyone was cooking Christmas dinner! I made my first turkey and ham. Justin had fun at dinner playing with a plastic spoon...like everything else, it went right to his mouth. Our Christmas was truly blessed and we praise God for the time we were able to spend with family.

Baby's 1st Christmas

This year was truly an amazing and extra special Christmas! We had the opportunity to reflect on the true meaning of Christmas...our Savior's birth, as we celebrated Justin's 1st Christmas. It was also special because we were able to share the holiday with family and friends. Nana Jones came to stay with us a few weeks and we made some precious memories while she was here. To begin our festivities, we (well, Jason found it!!!) picked out the most beautiful and perfect tree. Even Winston and Nana went along for the ride. Our next adventure took us to have a picture taken with the Harley Santa (we had to get a picture for Papa Jones with Justin and the Harley Davidson's!) And finally we had an early Christmas with Nana, so Justin was able to see what Santa brought him. Nana Jones had to leave early to go see Papa Jones in Kansas because he had to work on Christmas. We truly missed having them here, but were thankful for the time we spent together before Christmas.

3 Months Old

It's hard to believe that our little man is already 3 months old. I look back at pictures from when he was first born and see how much he has changed in such a short time period. Justin loves to have someone talk or sing to him...it makes him laugh and smile. And I've learned to never say never because Justin is enjoying something I said he wouldn't do until he was older.... watch TV. He loves all the different colors and light changes! Oh well, it keeps him happy and content and sometimes that's more important than what all the "books" say! I am also getting used to having a boy and the battle scars that come along with them...as you can see from the pictures! He gets more maniucres than I do =)

Happy Thanksgiving

We spent Thanksgiving in Virginia with the Parsons, while Papa and Nana Jones enjoyed the snow in Kansas. Justin and Winston did great on the 10 hour trip...both of them slept for a majority of the time! It was so nice to spend time with family and friends...and of course really good food! It was a quick trip, but we're thankful we were able to make it up there!
