On Sunday, Joshua turned 6 months old! I can not believe it has been half a year already since this beautiful human being entered our lives. I know I say it all the time, but he really is the sweetest, most tender baby in the world. He has such a great spirit and warmth about him and he is sooooo incredbily peaceful and content. On Monday Joshua started a new school. We felt it best that he was in a school where he would be around other kids considering he will be around a very little one in 5 months! The school is amazing and Joshua came home with a present for us to hang on the fridge, his hand painted prints on a Thanksgiving 2005 photo of him! It is the cutest thing and Steve started a Joshua art wall in the kitchen because apparently he will be bringing home a lot of artwork. No updates on weight yet, we go to the doc in early December so we will post those stats then but according to Maya and mommy’s back he is about 20 lbs and very very tall! He hasn’t found a food that he hasn’t liked and is at the max of how much formula he can have in one sitting!

Joshua wanted to wish you all a Happy Thanksgiving!

Love to all!

It’s offical, we are having a girl. The pictures below were taken this morning at Jess’ doctor appointment. Josh is so excited to be a big brother.

The third picture was drawn on by the doctor to prove to us that indeed, it is a girl and there is the hardware to prove it. The other pictures are just Maya teasing her hair up and talking on the phone like a typical Jersey Girl.

Well, since our town celebrates Halloween the day before Halloween due to the huge town Halloween parade, Josh dressed up in his purple dinosaur costume thanks to Uncle Nate and Aunt Franny. He had a great time giving out all of the candy and seeing all the diffferent costumes!

Some other fun pics are below. Josh is getting sooooooo big. His 5 month check up was last week and he is 17.8 pounds and 27 inches long and so beautiful. He is giving us hugs and kisses and lifting his arms up for us to pick him up. He is making some of the best noises I have ever heard in my life and it gets better and better every single day. Enjoy the pictures.
