Picture taking time!!

The above picture is of Jeremy when he was around 2 years old. The picture below is of Joshua when he is almost 2 years old and wearing the same clothes and boots that Jeremy wore.


We went to Sears and got the annual Christmas pictures taken, plus Joshua's second birthday pictures. We had a blast! The photographer took over 90 pictures!! Joshua was a hoot!! The photographer was laughing so much I don't know how she actually got any pictures taken!!

Joshua 2010 Christmas

Joshua 2nd birthday next Thursday!!

Here's the fam!

Here's the boys!

Here's big bro!!

Hope everyone has a very nice Thanksgiving. We will go to Grandma T's on Thursday and Grandma H's on Saturday and Sunday. In between, Momma will put up Christmas decorations and Mommy will study for her prelims the next week.

Joshua has been a trooper attending almost all of Jeremy's football games. Mommy and Moma get to watch the game the most when Josh decides to nap...or when we can keep in contained in the stroller. Although next year I look for him to be mixed in with the other "little brothers" playing football.

Halloween 2010 and Josh is 23 months today!

Here's Jeremy, Joshua and Mommie (Di) getting ready to go trick or treating. They went out with about 8 others and hit the neighborhood. Everyone came back with loads of candy!!! Momma stayed behind to hand out candy to our trick or treaters.

Can't believe that Joshua will be 2 in a month!! My how time flies!! He is putting several words together now. And most of the time you can understand what he is saying. He continues to be very lovable and caring. If he does something to hurt you, he will say "sorry". He has the concept down of saying please and thank you at the appropriate times. He won't let us feed him anymore. Unless he's mooching off of our plate!! He will eat his meal, say he is done, then come over and mooch food from us!! We have the same thing he had, but I guess it tastes better off of our plate!

He has grown quite a bit this Fall. He is in 3T shirts and pj's and 2T pants. We just sent his 18 month clothes off to Zeke last week.

Jeremy's football is about over. They had some good games at the end of the season. He is getting ready to start basketball this week. They have 3 practices!! First tournament might be in 2 weeks so they have a lot to do before then. He is doing great in school. 4th grade is the first year they get letter grades and he got all A's and 1 A+ this first quarter. We are so proud of him!!

Mommie is getting ready for prelims this month so she is studying a lot. After this semester she will be ABD ( all but dissertation). Once her dissertation is done, then it's Dr. Di!!!

The lawn business is winding down and Momma is happy about that. It has been nice to have some free evenings. We spend a lot of time on the sun porch. It's so nice having the windows in and being able to control the temp on the porch. Joshua will especially love having the area to play in this winter.

Hope everyone had a Happy Halloween!
