What Fun!



Jonev has been walking along the walls, furniture and anything else that he can grab onto. He has even been walking between things that are a few steps apart, well on Monday afternoon when he woke up from his nap, he decided that he was ready to leave the furniture and walls alone and walk on his own! No looking back now. He is so happy to be walking like everyone else in the family and wants us to take notice of him. He starts walking and then looks at us to make sure that we are watching him. He is so cute so of course we are watching. Silly boy! Here is a picture of him with a little love from AZ on (sorry it is a little blurry). His cute Alligator(because there are alligators in TX) robeez from Grandma Judy and Shauna and a cute outfit from Misha, THANK YOU! If you want to know about his hair, we don't cut it until they are one year old, it is getting really long on the sides though. Alas his 1st birthday is coming in just a few short weeks and so he will be looking like a little boy soon.


This week the boys and Paul decided to build some scripture stories out of lego's, here is one of the results. This was the first one that they did on Sunday night and there have been others this week, they have had so much fun. They also discovered that there are lots of other people on the internet that have also done the same as them. You should google it to see some of the pictures and videos (stop motion) that have been done. Keep on with the Lego building everyone. Jontu and I also built a giraffe and gorilla's and sheep and made a zoo on the kitchen floor out of Lego's is was so much fun. His lego building skills are really amazing for his age. He has started to ask how things are made, everything from dirt and grass, to houses, roads,and bridges, Grandpa would be proud. He is growing into such a sweet little boy!

It was transfer week here in our mission and we had to say goodbye to 3 of the Elders in our ward, they are moving onto other areas where they will no doubt do much good. They worked so hard in our ward and Elder Johnson has been here for 8 months and has seen a lot of good. There have been many baptisms in our ward this past 8 months, some good strong families. Thank you Elders it has been fun to work with you. Here is a picture after we all enjoyed dinner together the last night here in our ward, I really should have made Jonpa be in the picture too so it would have been all of the boys! It was a fun night, we ate brinner (breakfast for dinner) as Jongr likes to say.

I waited a long time to cut Chantz's hair too. He had such pretty curls, but it was starting to look a little girly. He was probably about 15 months before I cut it. The curls didn't come back. :(

Evan is so cute. Every time grace and anne see his picture they always say "Evan is the cutest baby!". Yay for walking and getting into more trouble.

The lego scripture stories sound like fun. Yeah for Evan's walking, good luck chasing him around, now. Although they can crawl pretty fast, running is always faster.

How fun!
Go Evan!! I love the wings buddy. :)
Love the Lego lands.
Susan, you are so good to the missionaries. I am sure they HATE to leave the area where you are.

Wow for Evan! I don't even recognize him. He has gotten so big since we saw you last.
