Smiles

Here are a few of Josh's latest smiles. He is really at a fun age right now. Most of the time he is laughing and "talking". I am pretty sure he is going to be a social butterfly. Gee, I wonder who he takes after, can you guess? :)

Cereal

These pics are from 2 wks ago when Josh had his first meal of cereal.
His bib says "I'm the boss" and he pretty much is these days.

At first he wasn't super crazy about the cereal, but as the days went on it became a hit. Now he gets excited when he sees the spoon. In about another month we will get to try some veggies!!!

Breakfast At Wildberry

This morning Joshua met Aunt Julie and Uncle Marc for the first time. They live out in Colorado, so he was very sad when he had to say goodbye to two of his newest fans. Josh and Uncle Marc

The number of months Joshua is today!!!!! 4 months old

And the number of shots that the poor little guy got at the doctors office today.

He is doing okay. But he had about an hour this afternoon where I could not console him at all. I had already given him his dose of baby tylenol, so all I could do was rock him and walk all around the house and let him try to quiet himself down. He did do that finally and is actually still napping as I type this entry. I hope that he wakes up as the happy little guy that he normally is because tonight we get to try our first serving of rice cereal:)

Birthday Wishes

Just wanted to wish my nephew Zachery and my good friend Erin very happy birthdays today. Love you both!!!!!! Erin on the left, Becca on the right and guy from Letcher's 30th birthday above.

Rain Rain Go Away

Currently I am typing this blog in my office listening to the down pour outside, wondering when nice weather is going to stay. Yesterday was such a beautiful day out. So beautiful in fact that I wanted to take advantage of the beautiful back drop that our front flower bed provided. I guess that I should also thank the previous owners for planting these lovely tulip bulbs that keep coming back spring after spring without needing any intervention from me. Because anyone that really knows me can attest that I am NOT a green thumb.
Joshua's balance in the bumbo is getting so much better!!!!

• cuddle with mommy and daddy.

Bumbo/Valpo Trip

Last weekend I had Saturday off, so Jeff and I decided to take a road trip back to Valpo to visit our old house/neighborhood and also check out the town and see how much it's grown. We also stopped at Don Pablo's for lunch in Merrilville, very tasty.

The next pictures are of Joshua trying out his new bumbo. I know what some of you are thinking, I vowed never to get one because they are slightly weird, but now that we finally got the head control taken care of I wanted him to get some practice sitting up. It was actually a great investment because even when Josh is in your arms he wants to face out and sit up and see everything. He is very curious about what is going on around him.

Three Months Old

Sorry, I am a little behind in the times with the blogging. These pics were taken almost 3wks ago when Joshua had his 3month birthday. He is just getting so big, I almost can't remember how little he used to be.

So Cute!!!!
