A sleeping success

For two nights in a row, Joshua has slept for 8 hours straight. Monday night it was 9:45 to 5:45 and last night it was 8:45 to 4:45. That has never happened before, and I can't remember the last time I slept that long either! Though I still didn't sleep that long, myself. With Jared out of town these past two nights, I wake up afraid I haven't heard him crying, but amazingly he's been asleep, peacefully. Let's see if we can't make it three nights in a row

Preparing Dinner

Josh eagerly awaits as Mom and Dad prepare dinner

Is it football season yet?

Starting him early to get ready to root for the Eagles

New Message

this is usually what happens in the mornings, about 5 am Josh wakes up and can't be coaxed back to sleep. Since Mom and Dad aren't usually "AWAKE" yet, Josh joins us in bed for a little while. I caught this pic Sunday morning Also, additional video from out Nashville trip

Josh's first baseball game

Nashville Sounds (farm league for the Milwaukee Brewers) won 6-1 against the rock something express

Doctor's visit

We went to the doctor this morning for Joshua's 1 month checkup. He weighed in at a whopping 10 pounds 2 ounces! For those of you counters out there, that's 2 pounds and 8 ounces he's gained in the last month! no wonder my back hurts from carrying him! He also is 21.5 inches long, 1/2 an inch longer than when he was born. both of those are the 50th percentile. just right smack dab in the middle. Considering I'm short, I'm happy to have an average heighted baby! We also got the second shot for Hepatitus B. Cried for just a minute and then he was fine. Slept all afternoon!

Yo!

Found the thumb!

Meeting Stella

Glenn, Jessica and Stella came over for dinner on the 2nd, to kick off the holiday weekend, and Jessica caught some cute pix of the kids. Stella played to the camera a bit more - she's a few months older than Joshua - she knows what to do.
