Joshua attends Jeremy's first official football game

Jeremy, number 12, is getting ready to play defense.

Jeremy, number 12, getting in the action. They lost the game by one touchdown, but played a good game. Jeremy played both offensive line and defensive line most of the game. He was pretty worn out, but had a blast!!


Joshua got the leftover orange from Jeremy during halftime. We gave him some peaches, too, which he liked. He has now taken 5 steps at one time!!!

Joshua is sucking on an orange peel during halftime!! All of these pics are compliments of our friend Linda. Thanks, Linda!!

He's growing by leaps and bounds!!

At Joshua's 9 month Doctor's appointment, he weighed 23 pounds, 1 ounce and was 30.5 inches tall. He is taking at least 2 steps at a time, now. Dr. said he was doing great. He sings quite a bit. Especially in my "lumber wagon" truck...he sings and the vibration of the truck sounds funny to him!! He knows which roads are the bumpiest!!

We had a good relaxing weekend at the lake last weekend. It was nice.

Happy 9 month Birthday to Joshua!

Here's Joshua on his 9 month birthday! He has taken a step and he can stand for a couple of minutes unassisted, but not quite ready to walk yet. But, I think he will walk soon. He is starting to be resistant to going to other people. He fusses a little when I take him to childcare in the mornings. Unless a stranger will hold his hands and walk with him, he doesn't want much to do with them. We had Di's family picnic this last weekend and that's what some of them had to do to get to be around him. He continues to be a good baby and laughs a lot. He has the greatest smile!! He is mostly in 18 month clothes. Pants are a little long, but other than that, everything fits good. I'll try to post later what his height and weight are. We go to the Dr. on Friday.

Last night Jeremy had a scrimmage football game at Clay Center, so we went up and visited Grandma T. Then we all went to the game. Jeremy plays on the line and is very tough!!! His first real game is Sept. 12.

We plan on spending this weekend at the lake. It's not supposed to be real warm so tubing may not happen. Maybe we'll get some fishing in. As long as there is R and R !!!

Everybody have a good Labor Day weekend!
