Joshua

It didn’t take long. Josh has just gotten good at crawling, and he’s already discovered how to pull himself up to standing. The crib’s his favorite place to stand right now, which makes me nervous, but we have the mattress low enough where he isn’t leaning over the rail. He just looks out at us […]

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

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,

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.

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

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

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,

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

Things have been much more hectic than I imagined they’d be since Joshua was born. I am taking advantage of some rare quiet time right now while he naps (it’s a nice long one, too — I was even able to pay the bills before blogging). My days have been filled with feedings, diaper changes,

As you all probably know by now, Joshua Roger has finally arrived!  He was born on his due date, December 29, after putting his mama through 3 days of painful contractions (from sometime Friday afternoon until Monday afternoon when he was born).  He was well worth it, though!  And while I started out wanting an
