4 months and 10 dayz

and he is such a little man!

He does so much more than eat, sleep and poop...although, he does have those conqured!!

He is talking, rolling from front to back, watching things in front of him (mainly toys, but sometimes brother and sister), loves to hold his circle toy and sucks his thumb (he is my kid!)

Today he had his 4 month doctor appoint and round two of his immunizations. bummer.

but there was a blessing in my day!

since it's flu season the shots have arrived at the offices and with the gas problem in NC...i was wondering what else would have a shortage this fall. ; )

so, i asked while we were there could the kids just get their shots? they said yes!!

so i saved copays! and doctor appointments! and most importantly, trips up the elevator (that ellie is deathly afraid of!) they were so brave and are showing off their snoopy bandaids!!

Here are the stats:

24 inches (15th percentile)

14 lbs 10 oz (50th percentile)

ps. the 3 month pics will be posted soon...

Congratulations!

1st Day of School

Josh's first day of school was last Wednesday!

He was so excited to go!

"I love my new school mom!"

When we got there, he got right out, went up the stairs, and into the classroom!
I'm lucky I got a kiss!

What a change from last year this is!!

I was the one with a tear in my eye on the way home.

This is him with his picture he colored!

they read the kissing hand!

Him running from me taking another picture!

"Oh Mom!"
"Look mom, a dead bird at school! cool!!"

He's a character!

He's ready for football season!

HERE WE GO STEELERS!
See in the middle of the photo where

there is a cover for the bed of a truck on the ground?

it's for sale...and has been for a while.

Josh thinks a car is buried in the ground and is very worried about it!

Go Steelers!

Go Steelers!
