Shutterfly.... A Love Story

I am in love with a website called Shutterfly.com. They have the most BEAUTIFUL Christmas photo cards! I have created my photo card online in like two minutes and I can't wait to send it out to all my friends and family. The one I have chosen....which was no easy task...is Berry Merry! See below:



I just love the picture frames and the color scheme!

I am new to Shutterfly but I would recommend it to anyone out there that has pictures of their children and holidays that can't afford to back up all their pictures on an external hard drive. They never delete your pictures and they are uploaded and kept in the original format. They are constantly running good deals where you can get free prints. They just had a deal where you could get 101 free prints just for the holidays! They also have the most amazing photo books that you can make in about five minutes. I have ordered several for Christmas gifts this year. You can even make your own digital scrapbook pages and upload them to the website and put them in a custom book. I may never paper scrapbook again! LOL!

Shutterfly is running some really great holiday sales right now. You can order one photo book and get any other's in that same size fifty percent off. They also are offering free shipping for anything over twenty five dollars. You really need to check them out!

Here are some links to my favorite products!

Jonah is 4 months old!

On Sunday, Nov. 21st, Jonah was 4 months old! We can't believe how much he has grown since he was born. He is really "filling out" and looking so cute!

Here are some of his milestones:

- We think he weighs around 15 lbs right now! He is becoming a little chunk!
- He is drinking 5 oz of formula still every 3 hours
- He is sleeping a 5 and 4 hour stretch at night. He still eats once in the night around midnight to 2 a.m.
- He loves to reach out and hold things with his hand and he tries to put them in his mouth
- He is definately teething....drooling on everything, always has his hand in his mouth.
- He likes to play peek-a-boo and patty-cake
- He smiles all the time and plays bashfull
- He loves to sit up on our laps. He doesn't want to be leaned back unless he's eating.
- He is wearing size 3 month clothes but they are getting tighter.
- He enjoys being in his bouncer toy and his walker at Nana's house.
- He loves people and notices when someone new is in the room and he looks around at everyone.

Here he is this month and a look back at last month.

right after he woke up from a long nap....flash surprised him!


Thanksgiving at Bill & Dee's

This weekend we had an early Thanksgiving gathering at Michael's parent's home. Bill (Papa) and Dee (Grandma) had a wonderful spread prepared and great family and friends came. Roro, Judy and Larry were there too. Jonah did so well interacting with everyone and only got fussy one time when he was over tired. he took an over 2 hour nap there. He selpt through all the noise of people talking. Mommy even took a nap too after the HUGE meal! I hope he does this good through all the holiday gatherings coming up. Here are some pictures from the day.

The "Play" Boy

Jonah has been getting so animated and active lately and he loves playing with his toys! Here are few shots of him playing on the floor gym and in his new bouncer. He is grabbing objects with both hands and of course bringing them to his mouth.
