21 lbs

jonah is now, as of friday, officially 9 months old. i still can't believe it! he had his dr.'s appointment today and we found out that he's 21 lbs and 29 1/2 inches. the doc said everything looked great and thankfully he didn't have to get any shots this time around. i always feel so bad for him when they stick his little legs. i always kinda wanted a chunker for a baby and i don't think that's gonna be jonah. he's a pretty lean guy. i guess that figures...look at his daddy! plus he's moving around so much now that it seems like any fat just melts away.

in other news, i found out today that brian and heather (my bro and sis-in-law) are having a girl!!! hope they don't care that i just announced it to the world. i'm so exciting! i'm gonna have a niece! this is the first girl on my side of the family so you know she is gonna be s-p-o-i-l-e-d rotten.

nothing else all that exciting to write about. we found out about a church in north carolina that needs a youth pastor and a worship pastor. we're checking into it. i think the worship pastor position would be full-time though...not sure if that would work out. tony also got a call from another church in north carolina looking for a youth pastor. we're checking that out too. it's all a little stressful to think about, but i know that God will provide. i'm just antsy to get out of kansas city. i still just don't feel like it's my home and i'm ready to be in a place that does feel like home. hopefully a place closer to the southeast and friends and family.

i'll leave you with a few adorable pictures of jonah, who is now 3 times the size he was when he was born!
