Justin wanted to do some art but I didn't want to have to get all the stuff out so I suggested he write a story. He said he needed four pages and he used the top portion of each. It was so sweet I had to make a special display . . . It's called Mom and Dad Moms are speshule and dads are too. Moms love kids and dad love kids too. Sholed kids love parrints? Yes thay sholed. I lov my mom and dad. I like to kiss and hug my mom and dad. Moms and dad are very very speshule. (There's a yellow arrow pointing to back side - see next pic.) 

Last page of Justin's story. . . I love you mom and dad! 

Justin was scratching daddy's head while watching cartoons. Tyler was supposed to be getting his back but instead - fell asleep on his butt. Too funny! 

At 6 weeks and 1 day I laid Joshua on his belly - and he enjoyed it. To my surprise in 4 minutes time he worked his way from stomach to back - and I have it on video! He's also been becoming more and more dissatisfied with his bottles. Still hungry after 5 ounces but refuses to take any more (yet gnawing on his fist) so, I started him on cereal (he had been getting some in nighttime bottle) with a spoon. He took to it immediately. I have to add applesauce, of course. Anyway, he doesn't seem like a 6 1/2 week old baby at all. He wakes once during the night after about 4 to 4 1/2 hours sleep. Then, he'll fall asleep after about 3 ounces. Sadly, he's up 2 hours later. So, when I say he's up once in the middle of the night that is assuming of course I always plan on getting up around 5am. (It's only 45 minutes before my alarm goes off, so, I pop the passy in - every 15 minutes or I'll cradle him in bed with me to make the passy poppin' easier.) I can't wait to find out what he weighs at his 2 month check up. I'll keep you all posted. 

Justin's sleep over: Chandler, Justin, Tyler, and Jonathan. They made ice cream sundae's. (m&m's, marshmallows, reese's pb cups, choc. chips, and gummy bears, and choc. syrup - yum!) It was chaotic but I'm sure everyone enjoyed it.

Picture of my sweet (big) boys. Are they handsome or what? 

We were on our way home, taking a scenic route through Kimberly, Combined Locks, Little Chute - anyway, saw this and had to take a picture. It's HUGE! 

Granny Great, Miss Polly, Justin, and Tyler at the Outagamie Museum (AKA Houdini Museum). The building you see here was originally a masonic temple. The back was a sinnogog - now, I know I have no clue as to how to spell it so I spelled it the way it sounds.

Justin received his Tiger Cub pocket badge, or totem. 

Justin and the Tiger Cubs at the Blue and Gold Banquet. (He was called to pose in picture while he was in line for food - his look is that of being somewhat preoccupied) 

It's a dark picture but a sweet one. 

Granny Great and Joshua.

He likes his bouncy seat. 

Sky and Tyler built this snowman. 

See how chubby he is? This is 1 day before he was a month old. 

See the hiney? Too cute! 

I let him sleep on his belly during the day - he'd probably sleep though the night if I let him lay this way at night. 

'You bow before royalty.' Doesn't he look stately? 

Cute, huh? 

Getting big!
