Hi! My name is Jonas Carter Ribeiro and my parents welcomed me into the world on July 10, 2008 at 1:03 AM at Women's and Children's Hospital in Vancouver, BC!
I'm nice and light, weighing 6lbs 13oz and 50 cm long. The Drs and Nurses at the hospital thought I was so cute they wanted me to stay for 10 days to give me medicine to make my blood healthy. It was a bit hard for my Mommy and Daddy but they stayed with me for 17 hours everyday!
My Mommy and Daddy have so many family and friends that love them and me, so we always had visitors while I was at the hospital. I was finally able to come home on July 19th. I love having company, call my Mommy and Daddy and arrange a play date with me!

    It was so nice to meet Jonas at church on Sunday. We still can't wait to hold him. We are enjoying our time on the Island but there have been so many baby's born while we have had to be away. So glad that you now have a blog. Looking forward to more updates and pictures and hopefully to a visit when we get back. Thinking of you guys. Melissa & Jonathan

A month of firsts!

Saying goodbye to Grandpa and Mumzie at the airport Superbowl Game Face It's been a while since we've updated you but this month has been busy! Jonas had many "firsts"in his 6th month of life, he's growing up way too fast! Where do we start.......we had our first rolling over back to front and then front to back, our first plane ride, our first tooth, first Giants hockey game with the Pereira's (which both Jonas and Daniel lasted through all 3 periods) and our first Super Bowl! Yes, we have been busy. Jonas and I left Keith in Burnaby and went off to my parents for a week.

We had a seat for Jonas on all the flights and we were only a bit noisy when he decided to give some "shout...

We had a great play date with the Pereira's this week. It's great having friends with kids similar ages! Keith is midway through another course at SFU and seems to be enjoying it. We've also become involved in the Roots of Empathy program. rootsofempathy.org It's such a great program for school age children. The program is meant to create empathy among young people and reduce bulllying, etc. There really is so much more to it. Check out the website. Jonas is starting to outgrow his baby bathtub....he loves his baths still but enjoys pushing himself off the sides of the tub to see how far he can go! He's wacked his head on the babytub too many times so I think it's time to upgrade to the big tub! He's also become very oral. EVERYTHING goes in his mouth including his thumb which he's fully f...
