2 months and 3 months










Joshua,

Mommy wants to apologize for not updating last month!  The past two months have been crazy busy, crazy fast and just plain crazy!  We had to take Nathan to the emergency room because he got dehydrated due to a stomach virus.  Poor little fella was so miserable and weak for 5 whole days it broke mommy and daddy's heart.  Since you were so little we prayed really hard that you would not get the virus because we were really scared that your little body would not be able to handle it!  Praise God you did not get it and neither did  mommy or daddy!  
Since turning two months old you have learned so many new and fun things.  You are smiling like crazy and we have finally heard your sweet little laugh!  Its really more of a chuckle but cute nevertheless!  You can now roll over both ways and its so hard to put you on the floor because we really don't know where you will end up.  Right after turning two months you decided all on your own that you no longer want to be held like a baby.  You get so mad at us if we hold you laying flat, you want to see what is going on in your world.  In fact you started pulling yourself up into a sitting position at two months!  You only want to be held ALL the time.  From the moment you wake up from naps and bedtime you have to be in someones arms.  Which usually is mommies since she is home with you the most.  Mommy jokes that her left arm is going to have muscles like Arnold Schwarzenegger from holding you so much!  You absolutely HATE your swing!  Any time you are put in it you almost immediately arch your back up so much that you throw yourself out of it.  Its the craziest thing mommy and daddy have seen!
At 4 months you weigh 13 pounds 1 ounce which is a little heavier than Nathan at the same age.  You both were the same length but your head is slightly bigger (which did not surprise mommy and daddy)!  We finally found some formula that agrees with your tummy and you finally get to start eating baby food!  You LOVE LOVE LOVE eating baby food!  So we might end up having us a little chunky monkey before babyhood is over!  I told everyone that you were going to be my little eater. We are hoping you can inspire your big brother to want to eat as well!
We are about to have the summer with dada!  We are counting the days down to he is home with us!  Mommy and daddy's summer goals is to potty train Nathan (hopefully) and get you to sleep better!  For some reason you wake up hour after hour all night long.  You are so worked up its hard to calm you back down to get you back to sleep.  Mommy and daddy are beyond sleep deprived and we are getting frustrated!  We have tried different places for you to sleep and none of them have worked so far.  We were hoping eating baby food was going to help you sleep better but so far nothing has worked.  We know that in time it will happen!
We think that you are so adorable and we are head over heels in love with you!  God has blessed us with two of the most precious boys!
Love,
Mommy and Daddy
