As you can see Josie can sit up by herself, although she really doesn't prefer it. She does love to crawl, army crawl that is, everywhere and anywhere she can go. She is getting better at eating food, although it really isn't her favorite thing to do. When we can get her to eat, her favorites so far are bananas and carrots. Yucky... and let me say I never knew how lucky I was that my first three kids didn't spit up a lot until you are constantly cleaning up colored puke!
She is becoming a bit of a TV head, but at least it is Signing Time and Baby Einstein. We put her in her little dish activity center in front of the TV and she is good to go while I shower. She over all is such a wonderful baby, but there are moments when I think teeth must be coming any day now. She can get pretty grumpy. She is also sensitive and doesn't like to be scared.
Her smiles are one of the most heavenly thing about her. It is one of the things that makes it be okay that she is getting so big so fast. When she was born I just couldn't wait to see her smile. I had to wait a while. It was worth the wait, but at moments I miss my newborn. They grow so fast!!!
Her hair, unlike the rest of her, is not growing very fast. She likes baths, she likes kicking in the water. She is a good sleeper. I really am so blessed.
It has been some tricky work figuring out sleeping arrangements. Deeken sleeps in Noah's bunk bed when he takes naps, so that Josie can sleep in her crib. At night, if Deeken has taken a nap he can hold off going to bed as late as 10. He stays in his room, but just talks...to who, it must be angels or something. Anyway, it makes it tricky to lay Josie down. She sleeps through it pretty well, but the other night when John and I went to check on them, this is how we found them. I can't believe that little monkey. I like to think they were talking to each other, maybe about what they remember about heaven, and just fell asleep together.
She is WELL LOVEd!

Josie is so beautiful & growing up way fast, can't believe she is already 7 months. Only like 3 months til your move, right? I bet you are getting excited for that too. Miss being able to see you but love keeping up with the blog.
She is really beautiful.
And that is just not because I am her Grandpa.
I swear you just had her!! Time goes by fast. She's so cute. It's hard to see them get older...but also, fun at the same time!!
What a cute post. Your kids are beautiful!
Doesn't time fly? I love reading about Josie because she is so close in age to Josh...but can I just say they seem like total opposites. She is a cutie!
Time really is flying by. I still haven't had you over yet and Josie is 7 months!!
I hear you on the colored puke! Belle's still going pretty strong, and I'm pretty sure Kimball stopped when he got solid food.
Those pic's are priceless, so cute!
I can't believe how big our babies have gotten, it's a cute stage, but makes me sad thinking maybe this will be my last, what am I going to do?
Well I finally got caught up on your blog! I love all the new posts! Little Josie is getting so grown up! I can see a lot of you in her. Some of her cute little expressions remind me of you. I hope you are doing good and I can't wait to see you guys. Miss ya!
She's beautiful Amy, and I totally sympathize with the vomitting. You'd think she'd cut it out after six months, or solid food, but no. Let's hope for the year mark then.
you make cute babies for sure, she is sweetness..i love her facial expressions. thank you for your sweet comment, I miss you too. it would be fun to go through this together huh.
She's beautiful Amy, I can't believe I haven't even met her yet. How sad! I really hope you enjoy your trip to Utah and I'm equally as sad that I can't come see you. June is so far away!!
