Granny and Pie VIsit

Our amazing daycare provider, Miss Olive, was in the hospital and Granny and Pie came down to take care of the boys. We are very thankful that Miss Olive is okay now and that the boys got to spend time with their great-grandparents!

Camping

This was Josiah's first camping trip. We have lots of pictures of him but very few of Isaiah because you couldn't catch him! Isaiah is in his favorite spot in the entire world: Papa's truck.

For Mrs. DalFerro

Thank you Carolyn for the quilt and outfit. I thought you would get a kick out of seeing just how small Josiah is!

Brothers

Isaiah is the best big brother and Josiah watches him wherever he goes. I thank the Lord each day for our boys!

Smiles

Isaiah's first haircut by a professional! (meaning not by mom) :)

Bathtime

Bathtime has become a favorite pastime for Josiah!

Growing

Three months later the buckle no longer covers all of Josiah's body!

Can you tell them apart?

Same outfit...Same age...one is just a little smaller :)

Baptism

Josiah was baptized on July 18. THe first picture is my parents, the second is Mike's family, the third is our family of four, then Pastor Jeff and Josiah's sponsor Sam, and then my grandparents. It was a great weekend and we are very blessed that both of our boys' names are written in the Book of Life.

Josiah

Josiah is growing quickly also! He has gained over three pounds in two months. His hernia was successfully repaired and we are starting to get into a schedule. The blue pooh outfit was given to Isaiah by our friend Cheryl from CA. Josiah is one month old in that picture. The white outfit is his baptism outfit. Isaiah wore the same one. He is still too small for 0-3 month clothing but I know that it will go all to fast and he'll be running and playing with Isaiah.

Isaiah

Isaiah has had a very busy summer! We,ve been to both great-grandparents, visited the farm, and decided that Pie's mowing headphones are necessary in order to watch fireworks! He is growing like a weed and is almost potty trained!

Brothers

These are pictures of Isaiah in 3T clothes and Josiah in newborn clothes. :) Isaiah truly loves Josiah and we have been very blessed with that. I have to get better at taking more pictures of them together!

Visitors

We had many visitors in the past month. Mike's parents came. (Denise in the red shirt) My sister and brother in law came (Tim in light blue shirt) My grandparents and Josiah's godfather Sam. (gray shirt) You don't realize how many pictures of people you are missing until you try to post them. We have seen both sets of grandparents, my grandparents, and Mike's sister, her fiance Jeff, and our nephew Quinton.

Isaiah was awesome through this entire ordeal. Mike would pick him up at daycare and then they would come see me and later Josiah at the hospital. Isaiah conquered many fears in those two weeks. He can now ride on elevators without crying, he doesn't run from people in scrubs, and going to the doctor is now cool. I hope the carseat picture gives a better idea of how small Josiah actually is...it took some getting used to! I spent 10 days in the hospital and Josiah spent 10 days in the NICU.
