At the Zoo!

We took Josh to the MN zoo with his best buddy Ethan! It was a fun morning.

Praying after Dinner

Jesus Spotting

So Rochelle and Josh were just hanging out this afternoon. Josh was looking at some books on the bookshelf and picked out this one and ran over to Rochelle with it.  He excitedly plopped it on her lap and pointed at the picture and said, "Jesus, Jesus, Jesus." We are starting to wonder what is going on in nursery on Sunday morning, I don't think there are pictures of John Calvin in there, but I should check.

Couch Jumping

Gymnastics training

Josh has a tendency to just crack us up most days. I noticed a few weeks ago that he will mimic people on the TV.  Tonight it was gymnastics and the balance beam... :)

Growing Vocabulary

So Joshua's vocabulary has been growing like crazy over the past few weeks, I guess that is what happens you hang out with 70+ high school students for a week. :) We did a count today and found out that his vocab list is about 143 words. It is unbelievable to see him grow and learn.

"Here Dad, hold this please."

"Zoom, Zoom, Zoom!"
