Happy 5th Month Birthday!!

Joshua turned 5 months old last Thursday. It is really hard to believe how fast time is flying. He is smiling and laughing and continues to become much more interactive. He will follow us around the room with his eyes and even seems to have a clue that we are talking to him when we say "Joshua." It is probably the intonation in our voices that makes him look up...if he wants to that is. Joshua definitely knows what he wants and when he wants it. The future looks to be exciting, to say the least!

Joshua's current favorite position

Had to take a picture of some more Gator gear from Daddy.

See, even in the crib watching the mobile, the stomach is preferred.

His outfit is from Grandma and says "I'll sleep when I am good and ready." So true, so true!

On his 5 month Birthday

"Now this is the way to hang in my crib."

All smiles

On Friday, Joshua and I went to Berkeley to have lunch with my friend, Leanne. Leanne lives in Sacramento and was coming to San Francisco for the weekend, so she stopped to see us. It was really fun to catch up.

On Friday evening, Joshua and I went to Alameda to see an old favorite cover band, Notorious, play a free concert. We met Auntie Megan, Andy, Kelly and the Morgan family, along with many of their friends. It was a lovely evening outside. Joshua is decked out in his Levi's for the occasion.

Heading out the door to Alameda.

On Saturday night, Dave, Joshua and I went to Evan Haynes 2nd Birthday party BBQ. Here are the twin McEwen boys.

Evan got some great, fun presents

Joshua was intrigued by the other kids moving around the Haynes home.

After bath time on Saturday night, we noticed that the sky was lit up oddly and walked outside as it started to rain. Rain in July is pretty crazy in Northern California. However, it lead to possibly the brightest full double rainbow I have ever seen. Amazing!

It was hard to capture on film, but here are a few attempts.

On Sunday, Dave christened the pool! Finally, we have a full, clean and safe pool. Good thing as it is going to be HOT this week and upcoming weekend.
