Jumping Jonas

Jonas has finally learned how to jump. I guess it happened while my mom was watching him these past couple of days. For months, we would play on the bed and he'd have Miah or me "bouncing" him or holding him while we jumped. We tried to show him how to lift both his feet at the same time. He would tell us, "I don't know how."
Now that he knows he doesn't want to stop.

"I wanna jump!" he said all day.

We went to his aunt 'Drea's house for a farewell barbecue. Drea has a trampouline, so Jonas was practicing his jumping skills.

Hunter and Walker are going back home. Jonas is going to miss Hunter so much. Those two had the best of times running around the house playing hide and seek. He asks for him almost every day. He even asks me to act like his cousin. "Mama, act like Hunter," says Jonas while playing with his trains, making a puzzle or while he's watching a movie. So, I try my hardest to sound like him, with tons of animated energy in my voice.
**Sorry baby, but next time you will see your cousin will be in December.**
