This is what happens when Daddy feeds JT! :)

Exciting news!!!!

Our adoption will be finalized on January 10th... and Jon's Grandpa Packard will be sealing us on January 26th in the St. George temple. We are so excited that this part of the journey is almost complete. Our adoption has gone by very quickly. I can't believe JT is already 6 months old. The Lord is definitely looking out for us. We are so blessed. I can't wait to become a forever family with my son!!!!!

My baby is crawling!!!

I can't believe how fast JT is growing up. It seems like yesterday that we were picking him up at the hospital and now he is crawling. I am sure it won't be too long before he is running around the house. He has quite the personality and we enjoy every minute with him.

Christmas was a success!!!

Christmas was so wonderful. We didn't think JT would understand and would just play with the wrapping paper and bows like everyone told us. Well... he was so much fun. From Santa's big present to the littlest toy. He played with everything. We probably spoiled him, but we waited forever for him and it was too much fun buying stuff... so maybe we will do better next year. Here are just a few pictures of him. Christmas PJ's
First truck from Papa and Gamma Cox. It makes sounds and he loves it.
We almost couldn't get him out of this thing.

Christmas church outfit. Looking pretty good :)

Long time - no post!

I am going to have to get caught up one of these days. Christmas was so busy and I have have a million pictures that I would love to post. I will have to choose my favorite ones and get them up here soon. Hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas like us! :)

I am proud to say that dinners are now a success. We have had sweet potatoes and green beans so far and he loves them. The only problem is he likes to talk during bites. Notice the picture.


The credit union had Santa come by today and it was the perfect chance to get a picture and not have to go to the crazy mall. Notice santa is holding down JT's hand in the pictures? Well... JT has a strong grip and he kind of got ahold of Santa's real beard. :) I guess at least he didn't cry! I am sure next year will be a different story.

Look what is under our tree!!!

This year Jon decided that it was his turn to decorate the tree. He said I am too fancy when I decorate. More power to him. I made him set up the tree all by himself. He tried to get me to let him use tinsel stuff... You know the stringy stuff that gets all over. I settled for garland. It is simple and when it is dark in the room and the lights are on.. just beautiful. And the present under the tree is the best present you could receive.
JT is getting more and more adventurous. He is getting up on his hands and knees and I know it is only a matter of time before he starts going everywhere. I put him under the tree to get a picture and he knocked the manger over. His face says it all.. wasn't quite sure if he was in trouble :) My precious little angel! He is starting to give kisses. It is the cutest thing. He is probably tired of it by now. I try to get in at least 20 a day! :) lol
The greatest gift of all. Becoming a mother.

Look at those beautiful brown eyes.
