New skills

Given that it has been almost two weeks since my last post, it is about time. The past week and then some my focus has been on finding a nanny for Joshua. We have another interview tonight and are most excited about this particular candidate. Fingers crossed!

Joshua discovered he had Pooh Bears on his feet and was having fun pulling on the ears.

Auntie Tania came to visit.

Last week Joshua figured out he can roll on his tummy. He just can't figure out what to do with his arm.

On Saturday, Daddy watched Joshua while Auntie Megan treated Mommy to a pedicure, lunch and some shopping. Dave cooked a BBQ chuck roast in the crock pot all day and we had a great dinner on Saturday night of BBQ, cole slaw and garlic bread. Dessert was key lime pie. Yummy!

Joshua is learning how to grasp objects with both hands. So far this is best done with Duck. Duck was a present from Uncle Kevin which Joshua got in the hospital when he was first born. He loves it. Duck has a place on his tummy that says "Quack!" and he does just that when you press it which can almost always quiet this crying boy. Duck also has a bell which Joshua likes.

Best of all, Duck is great to gnaw on.

Mmmmm good! The put-everything-in-my-mouth phase has begun.
