Joshua

Joshua was born on March 1, 2007. He is now a lively two year old who is trying to find out how much power he really has in the world :) He loves to play outside, especially throwing, kicking, and chasing balls, climbing, and going down the "big boy" slide at the park. He loves his baby sister, but is somewhat annoyed that she is now mobile as she has started playing with his toys when he leaves them on the floor. He loves corn on the cob, meatballs, grapes, and gummy candies of all kinds. He is learning to drink out of a big boy cup and gets SO excited when he successfully gets through a meal without spilling any of his drink. He loves to go to nursery at church every week, and I love that he gets excited and runs to give me a hug when I go to pick him up when it's over. He is a big help with the baby. He makes sure that she has toys to play with and doesn't get into things that aren't safe for her. He makes sure everyone knows to be quiet when she's asleep and gets me clean diapers for her (he throws away the dirty ones too!). He loves to give her hugs and kisses and tries to share his snacks with her when he thinks I'm not looking :) He is a wonderful part of our family and I am loving watching him grow up.
