Jonah was dedicated at New Hope Baptist Church on
December 9, 2007 by Pastor Mick Simpkins.
5 other babies were dedicated as well. Pastor Mick commented that there must have been some kind of storm about a year ago. . .we've experienced a baby boom at our church! At one point at least 12 women were pregnant.
Pastor Mick prayed over the babies and we committed to bring Jonah up in a Christian home. Jonah was great during the entire thing. . .he slept peacefully in my arms, oblivious to everything!
Jonah got to meet Santa for the first time December 10. Santa makes an annual visit to Jarrett's aunt's house so we had to stop by. After sleeping through the carry-in dinner, Jonah woke up and sat on Santa's lap to get his very first Christmas present. He snuggled right up to him and I think he would have gone back to sleep on his lap if I had let him!
Jonah's toy from Santa is a Crawl-Along Drum Roll. Right now he sits up and plays the drums. it can also be put together to roll for when he starts crawling. Jonah likes looking at it put together when he's on his tummy. It has encouraged him not to get so mad on his tummy. Of course, he loves to beat on the top which makes the lights flash and plays the music. Great pick Santa!
