Oh what a difference 4 weeks make!

So I can hardly believe Joshua is 4 weeks old (as of yesterday). As the saying goes, "I can not imagine our family without him". It has been a joyous, hectic and memorable month. Joshua has brought so much happiness to us as a family. I have loved watching Nicole, Morgan and Rachel welcome him into our family with such sweet love and affection towards him. He has already been to a variety of soccer games, piano practice, the bus stop, church, the cider mill and even his first tailgate party(well if you count the church parking lot).

He is getting bigger and really LOVES to eat, even though his reflux just gives him fits after his feedings. He is filling out in the face and thighs which makes this mom's heart happy. Here are a few pictures from the last month.

We took the girls to Yates Cider Mill one night. He was happy to be out of the house in the fresh air.




Grandma and Grandpa Nugent came from NY to visit for a couple of days.

Joshua met Great Granny Kelbert also this month. Josh is the 29th great grandchild of Dave and Fran Kelbert-WHEW! This amazes my grandmother, she was an only child.

Oh how he hates his bath.


The best thing about being a baby, sleeping with dad!





We have been calling him scar face. He scratches his face almost daily. Finally his nails were long enough today that I felt like I could clip them without hurting him.

Can't wait to see what he is doing and looks like in 4 more weeks!

Handsome little dude! He really is filling out & looks so much more alert. Is the reflux medicine helping? Its eerie how much I see Rachel when I look at him:)
