Booyah!

Last November, my cousin Matt (technically, my mom’s cousin’s grandson) lost his battle with Leukemia.  Our family has dealt with so many deaths due to cancer, and many of us have responded by raising money for cancer research.  Matt’s father Mark is riding in the Pan Mass Challenge again this year.  Matt wanted to ride […]

Long Overdue

Oh boy, am I in trouble. I haven’t posted since November. I knew it had been a long time, but didn’t realize it had been quite so long. December was an extremely hectic month, especially the last week. In that week, we celebrated Christmas and Joshua’s first birthday, and moved. We haven’t sold our old

Off to the Races

And… he’s off! Off crawling, that is. Josh started with an army crawl for about a week, and now he’s pretty proficient at moving on his hands and knees. Within the past couple of days, he has also mastered getting from his belly to a seated position, which is awesome because now he doesn’t have

Growing Up Fast

I am really slacking now. Almost two months without an update. Let’s see, what’s new? Joshua now has two teeth (the front bottoms) and I’m pretty sure he’s working on the top two because he is drooling like a fountain and chewing on anything he can get his hands on. He’s moving around a lot,

Crazy

Things are quite crazy in our household these days. We are working hard to get the house ready to sell (open house is in 12 days!) and have had other commitments. Kevin’s birthday was this past weekend; we celebrated by attending the Country Fest concert at Gillette Stadium on Saturday, and a wedding on Sunday.

Time with Josh

It continues to amaze me just how much Joshua is changing.  It seems like the change is more rapid these days.  He is really growing and learning something new everyday. This past weekend, we took Joshua to the beach for the first time — just to put our feet in the water.  He seemed to

Six Months Going on Seven

So much for the six month update; Joshua will be seven months next Wednesday!  Time is just flying! Joshua celebrated his half-birthday last month, with his Christening and a party with family and friends the day before.  Since his birthday is so close to Christmas, I am hoping to do something special with him on

Five Months

It’s hard to believe, but my little man is going to be five months old on Friday.  We took him for his four month check-up on May 8, and he was 14 lbs, 4 oz and 24 3/4 inches.  He’s still in the 50 percentile for both height and weight.  I was a little worried,

Three Months Going on Four

I am way behind with my three month update.  Life has been so busy since I went back to work.  It’s hard being away from my little man, and the house has been a disaster area lately, but we’ve been getting by.  It’s nice to see my co-workers again, though — and have conversation with
