Christmas Tree

We decide to put up the Christmas tree this past weekend.  Joseph loved the lights and ornaments and was such a great helper when he was not tring to eat everything.




6 months Update


Joseph was 6 months old on October 29, 2010.  It is so hard to believe that half of a year has already passed.  We went to the doctor for his 6 month check up on November 4, 2010.  Here are a few things about Joseph at 6 months:
Weight:  19 lbs, 7 ozs
Height: 27.5 inches
Milestones: Rolling Over (3 months), Sitting Up (5 months), Babbling, Laughing, Smiling,
Foods:  Avocados, Squash, Sweet Potatoes, Pears, Oatmeal, Plums, Bananas, Peaches (Organic Homemade by Mommy, Daddy, and Ms. Brittani)
Favorite Things:  Aiden + Anais Blanket, Cool Breeze (Penguin), BlahBlah, Fisher Price Bongo Drums, Fisher Price Car, Plastic Keys, Music, and Books

Mommy's Lil' Pumkin

This year for Halloween Joseph was a pumkin.  We did not carve a pumpkin this year but opted to use the Mr. Pumkinhead Pirate that Nana brought and saved the adventures with the knive and carving for next year when he has a more steady 17 month old hand.  We invited Mom and Ann Brilye to visit and attend the RUMC Fall Festival.  Ann Brilye had a blast on the jumpys and playing the games.  We are sure to make that a tradition that we do every year.

Five months and Sitting up

I can hardly believe that my little man is already 5 months old.  It seems like just yesterday Jason and I found out that God had blessed us with another little miracle.  I can honestly tell you that the last year has been full of ups and downs.  We had to go through all the first of dealing with losing a child and also all the joys of preparing for a new child.  I can honestly tell you that having Joseph to look forward to always helped us through the really tough times of grieving the loss of Addison.  I now look and Joseph and see so much of Addison in him.  They share so many features which I am so happy about and I can't wait until he is old enough for me to share with him all about his big sister.

And the BIG NEWS.... Joseph is sitting up all by himself!!!





Also,  Joseph wanted to thank his Nana for his Jumparoo Activity Center.

Georgia Aquarium

Brittani and Joseph went to the aquarium for the first time on Thursday!!  They both had a great time hanging out with the fish.
Look at that BIG fish!

Look at the scary fish!  I sure am glad he is on the other side of the glass!
 



I want those fish!  Give me scuba gear and I am there!

Jelly Fish

Beluga Whales!!

Chek me and my new fish friends out!!


Depo is as big as me!!!



Update & Pictures

I can hardly believe that my baby boy is almost 5 months old.  I guess time flys when you are having fun!!  He is growing and changing daily.  He is rolling over (when he feels it necessary), sitting up (almost by himself), and standing up (as much as we will steady him).  He has wants so much to be a big boy and walk around.  He is so curious and learning new things by the minute.  The only constants are our Aiden and Anais blankets and Mr. BlahBlah.

Here are few pictures that I have taken of him over the last few weeks.

Taking a nap in the Nap Nanny with Mamma Bee and of course his blankie.

Helping Mommy work (ie watching Baby Einstein)

He was scared we were going to take the book away

Tummy time

He will be crawling in no time!!!

Lions and Tigers and Bears OH MY!!

Joseph went to the Zoo for the first time today!!!  He got on his tennis shoes and hat and was ready for a fun filled day at the Atlanta Zoo hanging with the Pandas, Monkeys and Gorillas.


While Ms. Brittani and I were at the Zoo, we saw all kinds of fun animals.  There are a few of the ones we saw below.




Here is a picture of Ms Brittani and Joseph with the Gorilla!!



The day at the zoo really wore Joseph out but He just want you to know that the Atlanta Zoo is number 1!!!!
