Father's Day Pics

Rochelle surprised me (& the grandpas) with some very very fun pictures for Father's Day. She acquired some items that related to each of us and had some fun...


Daddy's Hat and Chacos. :)

















I have the cutest little boy!







































For Grandpa Statema...
(Rochelle wanted to use a hammer that I "borrowed" from my Dad when we moved from the great state of Michigan but could not find it.)

Don't worry...this is a new brush.
















Fat guy with a little paint brush. :)





















For Grandpa Top....


While Josh is not a fan of the Minnesota Vikings, he is incredibly cute still.

(between me and you, I think he is tooting on this shirt while the picture is being taken. :) ) haha, just kidding! :)

Standing Man

OK, so he is not standing unsupported yet, but he sure loves to practice. He gets incredibly proud of himself each time he pulls himself up on those fatty little legs.









The boy sure loves his sleep yet.

Unckie Bill

Josh's Uncle Bill came out to visit last weekend, and aside from a freak nose poking incident in Panera Bread, Josh said he had a one of the best weekends of his young life. :)

Mothers Day

Josh and Mom in the front yard.









Grandpa Top and Josh.







First taste of pineapple.








"Do you see my feet...they are right here!"

Bedtime Routine

So I know we have posted about a billion videos like this but I couldn't resist another so if it is too much then I suppose that you do not have to push play. We can't believe that he is already 6 months old.

Puppies, Toes, Flipping, etc.

Josh wanted to play Puppy.














Such cute little toes.





















"It just flipped over! Seriously, I had nothing to do with it."










"OK... Maybe I have been playing a little too hard."

Growing up so fast

Joshua is definitely getting more and more interested in the world around him! He grabs for anything with in his reach, and of course everything he grabs for goes directly in his mouth! No teeth yet, but I think they are coming soon. He had rejected his bottle for a week or two, which made it so hard for me to be able to leave him with anyone. I started putting apple juice in it once a day, and now he gets so excited when he sees it, holding out his hands to grab it! Sometimes he can even hold the bottle himself.
