Guess who taught Joshua to go up the steps??? HInt . . . it wasn't mommy! He was 11 months in this picture.

There he goes!

Joshua is really getting the hang of walking with this thing -- a wonderful 50 cent garage sale purchase!

I think I can, I think I can!

Yum, yum . . . we love spaghetti!

Daddy getting a bath ready for Joshua!

Enjoying a warm October day down at the park with the "Duckies" -- Joshua enjoys eating the bread himself, rather than throwing it to the ducks!

I kept hearing this "thumping" sound coming from his room -- I guess the blinds won't need to be cleaned! (For all you worried grandma's -- the cords are on the opposite side of the window so he can't strangle himself!)

I came around the corner and here he was . . . he just looks way too grown up.

Giddy Up Horsie!

What a cute couple!

10 Months old!

What a "Q-T-Pie!"

So much for the whole taking a nap thing!

Reading Joshua's current favorite book "Peek a Boo Zoo" -- it has tabs you can flip up!

So much for reading Peek-A-Boo Zoo!

I'm gonna get this doggy!

Joshua was the only child on the Peds floor -- it was really painted cute to look like a board walk!

He even figured out how to eat with only his left hand! Notice the "Fort Knox" style crib in the background.

Playing with the see-in-say in the playroom.

Our trip/overnight stay in the hospital. The skinny board was taped to his arm to hold the IV in place.

Yum, yum, I just love these biter biscuits!

Nine Months Old! Notice the one upper tooth! He worked very hard to get that!

Our trip to KS on the airplane!

Bonding

Auntie Rebecca and Joshua

The boys and their trucks . . .!

Joshua was just worn out!

Look Mom, no hands!!!

Uncle Ryan playing the quads on the left.

Joshua's first football game. Go Holton High School!

Big grin!

"I just love drinking some a big glass!"

Joshua and Auntie Rebecca. We got to see where she worked!

We weren't sure whether he liked the balloon, or was scared of it!

Daddy's so goofy!

We discovered that Joshua LOVED the doggies!

And more doggies!

Just figuring out how to do this crawl thing!

What bonding time!

A very sentimental rocking chair

The infamous "nook" -- yes, they both started out as the same size!
