Mommy, I don't think I like green beans.

You can make me laugh, but I still don't like them.

Little rusty, but starting to sit up on his own.

Here we are, we are doing well. Not much besides working. Joshua had is 6 month checkup on June 29, 2011, and he weighed 17 pounds 11 inches and was 26.5 inches long. He's getting so big. He's eating very well. He likes his cereal, sweet potatoes, and carrots, however, he's not quite fond of green beans or peas yet. We have his 2 bottom teeth in, and now his 2 top teeth are coming in. It's pretty exciting. He is rolling from belly to back, but doesn't quite have back to belly, and he's starting to sit up on his own for brief periods of time.

Look what Josh can do!

Playing with his Puppy

Joshua in June

June is going by fast. Joshua is now 6 months old. We have a well-baby check at the end of the month for shots and see how big he has grown in the past couple of months. He has been becoming a chunk though. He has been eating cereal at least once a day, but I think I'm going to try to give it to him 2-3 times a day now because he goes through milk so fast. We have also started vegetables. We have tried squash, sweet potatoes, and carrots. Seems to be liking them all. Nothing much new to report with him, he's being more and more active, he likes to grab Mommy's hair, and we are trying to teach him to roll over consistently. Daycare is going well. He still doesn't like to take a lot of naps because there is too much going on there, but we did get some school photos taken.

Kurt and I got a tandem, so we've been riding around on that. It's quite fun I must say. I was pretty nervous because i'm not steady on a bike, but we fly on it. We can ride around together as a family. We went out for a 20 mile bike ride for Father's Day. Otherwise nothing else is new. Summer has been busy for me because school is out, and I schedule kids consistently throughout the day, so work seems to go by fast. Kurt had a race a couple weeks ago in Ida Grove. He got 2nd in his age group.

Memorial Day Weekend.

This is what 7oz of formula will do to a little boy.

Riding in the wagon.

We had a really good Memorial Day Weekend. Saturday, we traveled up to Cedar Rapids to Kathy & Tony. Kyle, Julie, Alexa, Don & Verla also made the trip because Tony's birthday was on Monday. It rained most of the time, but we were able to get a small ride in Sunday evening and the boys went mountain biking on Monday. Josh had a good time playing with everybody. We got a little silly with one of Alexa's games and decided to decorate everybody's face, even Josh's while he was sleeping!
