Josiah is Stylin'

"I just wanted to send a thank you to Aunt Mer-Mer for the sweater and hat she knitted for me! Jared tried to wear it but of course it was made just for me! I love it!"

A Petting Zoo, etc.

This past weekend we found out that O2B Kids would have a big activity day, including a mobile petting zoo, and because of Jared's love for animals we decided to go. Josiah was in attendance but missed most of the festivities due to his rigorous schedule of perpetual napping. Thus I decided to include these pre-activity photos.

"So, where are we going, Mom? A petting zoo? What's a "petting zoo"? Animals? What's an "animals"?
"Josiah, the petting zoo will be awesome! You HAVE to promise to stay awake! It's going to be sooo much fun!"

"Okay, Jared-- I still don't know what it is, but I promise! I promise!" (This concludes the photos of Josiah for today-- stay tuned for his next adventure when we HOPE he stays awake past the car ride!)

We arrived at O2B Kids at the same as Uncle Tim, Aunt Shelley and Jordyn...

"Hey Jared."

"Hey Jordyn. Hey Uncle Tim."

Uncle Tim and Jordyn headed down to the petting zoo...


"Wow, Daddy, look at this cow. Moo Moo! Moo Moo! This looks like a baby Chick-Rick (Chick-Fil-A) cow!"


"Are you trying to tell me BOTH of those 'aminals' are chickens? They don't look ANYTHING like Papa's chickens!"


"Mom! Can't you see I am examining the 'aminals'? I don't have time for photos!"
"Okay, Daddy, how does this brush work?"


"I am brushing the sheep, Daddy! "
After the petting zoo, we decided to check out some of the other activities. Naturally, Uncle Tim (the golf addict) took Jordyn to the putting spot.


Then Uncle Tim and Daddy played basketball with me. Daddy says I can handle the ball well and Uncle Tim helped me make a shot!


"SLAM DUNK, DADDY!"


And I finished the day on the jungle gym. Thanks Mommy! Thanks Daddy! Thanks Baby Siah!

"Watch Me Move" -- A Video

I had to upload this video of Jared dancing to the new Verizon commercial, which he makes me repeatedly play so that he can dance. He says "Mommy, I wanna dance with the phone again!"

I have uploaded Take 1 and Take 2 because I find them equally hilarious.

Dalvin says that we should have him do several repetitions before bed every night so he can get in his cardio!

Get your mouth out of your finger! - A Video

Josiah has been smiling the past few days and I wanted to catch it on video. In the meantime, Jared has his own ironic message for Josiah. "Get you mouth out of you finger!" as he makes his signature backwards pinkie in the mouth move.

This very random video clip has a few funny elements that are part of the changes in our household these days... Josiah continuing to grow at exponential rates... Jared pretending to be a baby and at the same time being such a tender, sweet, affectionate big brother. I love my boys! :)

Josiah is six weeks old...

Because he is growing at exponential rates, I thought I would share a photo of Josiah at six weeks old (although he is arguably the size of a 4 month old)! :) They grow so fast!
