Things to Do and People to See

Joseph has officially made it past the quarantine period! He is a happy, healthy little 8 week old and we have slowly begun to take him to new places and be held by new people. So far, he's ventured out to the tow path to see his daddy kayak, he's been to Chevys to watch his mom, dad and Uncle J enjoy Tex-Mex, and also Joseph has gone to Panera to meet up with one of our lovely British friends and her family. Today he's going to take his first trip to the movies so that Joe Momma and Joe Daddy can see the new Pixar film 'Up'. We've heard great things, so we're hoping the movie is as good as everyone has been telling us. Later in the week, Joe will be making his greatly anticipated appearance at Joe Daddy's office.

Here's a little sample of Joe enjoying his ever expanding social circle:




Besides meeting new snugglers, Joe has started to play with a new toy! At 8 weeks he's got better control of his arms and legs, so he's enjoying playing with his rainforest gym. He is a bigger fan of kicking things with his legs and looking up at the lights than hitting things with his hands right now. He seems to favor his right side, so maybe he's going to be right handed?



Lastly, here's Joe Momma and Joe Daddy as little folks. I bet Joe will be a spitting image of his father-- with a little more red in his hair.



Auntie Em (not to be confused with Aunt M) is planning to visit this coming weekend! I can't wait! It's going to be so much fun! I've also heard a rumor that this young lady is going to make an appearance in about a week as well.
