Lately

Josiah is getting so big... and SMART! He hates taking naps. I think he knows there is cooler stuff going on downstairs, and he would rather be where the party is (who can blame him, his mama is REALLY fun). He has figured out how to get out of napping... he poops. I will let him cry for up to 45 minutes before I take him out of his crib and bring him downstairs, but recently he started pooping about 15 minutes into his nap, which I can't let him roll around in, so I take him out, change his diaper then bring him down with me. I probably should put him back in his crib, but I don't. By the time I'm done changing him he's wide awake and too cute to not play with. Little bugger.

He LOVES walking (with our help, of course). Sometimes when we try and sit him on the floor he straight legs it so we can't, and he winds up getting way and we let him walk around the house. It's actually really cute. He is so proud of himself. His mouth is wide open, eyes excited, and squealing. I could be wrong, but I believe as soon as he figures out how to pull himself up, he will go straight to walking.

Yes, I am always this happy!

::::::Tiny Feet::::::

I am not obsessed with feet. I believe they serve their purpose. Most feet are ugly... they have been walked on, danced on, run on, etc. However, Josiah's feet are the cutest things I have EVER seen. They are so fat! I stare at them all the time and talk about his feet all the time (something I didn't realize I did until Chris pointed it out to me). So here they are... you will thank me, I promise.

Here's how cute they are from the back

These are my jumping feet

He's growing up so fast!!

I know I posted a video of him crawling on facebook, but this one is much cuter (which is pretty hard to do when you're already the cutest baby ever).

I just can't believe that he's crawling already. I look at pictures from when he was a newborn and it seems like yesterday. Pretty soon he's gonna be married with four of his own children!

Sleeperstar stayed with us for 2 days last week and we had so much fun. I LOVED getting to host 5 very talented, very genuinely sweet men at my house. Shaun Menary of shaunmenary.com took some candid shots of Josiah playing, so here they are. You don't have to tell me, I know how cute he is...

I've lost 40 POUNDS!!!!! I still have a little more to go, but I know I can do it

Typical Saturday:::

Josiah and Clara

Josiah's girlfriend Clara came over yesterday. Her mommy and I are very good friends so we are OK with them flirting with each other. Here is a progression of what happens when they play together...



Aren't they just adorable? They also like to watch Baby Einstein together and play in the pack 'n' play. They are very good at sharing their toys and teething rings with one another. If he cries, she gets worried and vice versa. I'm so glad they have each other. As well as I am glad I have Clara's mommy, Jenn.
