The many faces of Joshua

I was trying to get a picture of Joshua smiling. That process turned into a photo session.

It started off really well...

And then he got tired of Mommy taking pictures... (these are still cute!)

Curls

If I don't brush Joshua's hair after a bath, he's hair is curly...

Cooing

Joshua "talking" :)

Rock & Roll

Joshua wants to roll over. I know it's early, but he tries this rocking motion alot. A few times, he's even slept on his side.

Bath time

Before the bath time...

Bath time wasn't exactly enjoyable for everyone...

After he got calmed down...Isn't he cute?

Crib time & smiles!

Joshua slept in his crib today at the shop. He's laid in there for about 10-15 mins in past days, but today he really slept - over 2 1/2 hours! This is so great! I really got some things done when he was sleeping!

We have the first picture of Joshua smiling!

Hope that made you smile! :)

Fingers

Nearly everyone that meets Joshua tells us he has such long fingers.

I think we now know where that comes from. This is a picture Jim's mom sent us of Jim.

(sorry for reposting some of the same pictures - they were the best I had of his fingers)

2 1/2 weeks can make a big difference...

Joshua (& I) went over and visited with Andrea, David & Little David today. I was amazed at the difference in there size. Little David is 2 1/2 weeks older than Joshua.

There is about 2 1/2 pounds difference between these boys as well.

Joshua has little chicken legs next to Little David's legs!

What a big difference a couple of weeks can make. I've read that there is usally a growth spurt around 4 weeks old. Believe it or not, Joshua will be 4 weeks old tomorrow!

Friends & New Years Eve

Ty & Maddy came by the shop to visit Joshua. Maddywas holding Joshua when I said to Ty "your baby is holding my baby!" (Ty is Sharon's son) Maddy did a great job with Joshua!

My cousin Kelsey was home from Denver, Colorado. We were glad she was able to meet Joshua while she was home. It was nice to visit with her. I hadn't seen her since before I was pregnant!

New Years Eve we went to a party at our friend Matt & Amanda's house. Joshua was a big hit. There were several people there who hadn't met him yet.

Grandma and Grandpa came by the shop to get in a little snuggle time with Joshua.

Shannon and Tom came by the shop today to meet little Joshua. The exciting part (besides meeting Joshua) was I got to see Shannon's ring. They just got engaged! It was an exciting visit!

Sunday at church LuAnn got to hold Joshua.

 

And here is a few pictures of Joshua...

Jim with his boys...

Joshua had been resting on his boppy pillow. We got him up and the next thing I know Duke was curled up on Joshua's pillow.

Apparently Joshua warmed up the pillow for Duke!
