growing....growing.......

Josiah has been having some "tummy" issues so we went to the pediatrician on Monday. She is now treating him for acid reflux. We are giving him some medicine for it and hoping it will start working soon-she said it could take 2 weeks-1 month til we see a big improvement. So, while we were there, of course, they weighed him. He is up to 9 lbs 1 oz!!!

Otherwise, we are all doing great. Dave is busy work gearing up for Easter and I am busy at home taking care of my 2 wonderful babies.

Life is Good!!!

Newborn Pic Preview

We had Josiah's picture made on Tuesday this week. Here is one....just a preview. I will post more soon. He is so sweet. He is growing so fast! We just love him to pieces.

Hold on.......Lots of pictures

We have to throw out a HUGE thank you to BB for coming and staying almost three weeks with us. She was so much help. It was sad for me to see her leave, but know it was time. She did such an excellent job of taking care of Addie, Josiah and me. I am so thankful for her sacrifice to come help us! I miss her so much!!

Addie still thinks he is a keeper!!

The 3 of us.......sleepy, but happy :-)

We were so glad for Pop, Uncle Mark, Emmy, Anna and Micah to come spend the weekend with us. Anna was so good with Josiah and Addie. They both love her to pieces, as do I!!

Micah was a great helper too! He is such a sweet boy! We are so glad he came to our house!!

Emmy, of course, is an ol' pro at babies. She spoils my babies rotten and we LOVE it!!

I think four babies would have been better than just one!!

Pop really came to pick BB up to take her home, seeing Josiah was a bonus :-)

Proud Grandparents

The only thing missing is Jasper!!

And Josiah!

Our Little Man

Josiah is doing great! Eating well and growing really fast. Seems like he changes every day, and I am sure he does.

We are looking forward to some company this weekend. Pop, Uncle Mark, Emmy, Anna, and Micah are coming to spend the weekend with us and we couldn't be more excited. The down side is we think Pop is gonna try to take BB with him with he leaves. We are prepared to fight to keep her:-)

It's Grandma time......

GG and Josiah

We enjoyed a visit from GG today. We are so glad she is close enough for her to visit us often. What a blessing!

Settling in at home

We are so glad to be home! We have started to settle into our routine. It is quite the change going from 1 to 2. I know all you out there with more than 2 just laughed out loud, but that's ok!!

Addie is being such a good big sister. She is adjusting well. Almost every time she looks at Josiah, she says in the sweetest voice "He is so cute!"

We had our 1 week check-up today and the doctor says we have a healthy baby! After the week we have had......that is such a relief to hear.

GOD IS GOOD!!!!!

Josiah is back up to his birth weight. We are so glad. He is eating good. We are glad to still have BB here to help! We will be sad when she leaves.

That is it for now.........more later

P.S. Please leave no comments about the bouncy seat. We already know it's pink :-)

Reunited and it feels so good!!!!!

We all got to come home yesterday. Felt SO good to sleep in my own bed last night. We are all doing great. Addie is such a good big sister. Mommy has quite the helper! Josiah is doing great.

Again thank all of you for all the prayers you gave us since Friday. We have felt them and we know they were all answered. If we haven't responded to your phone call, email, text, or facebook message it is not because we don't appreciate your concern. Life has been pretty busy and I am sure will continue to be so for a while yet!

We love all of you!!

DRUMROLL PLEASE............

Addison got to meet her little brother today!! What a exciting day for them. As you can see, she was pretty smitten with him. She is very excited to get him home-mostly because that is when her mommy is coming home too! She got to feed him a bottle, so that was really fun to her.

As you can see, I think she will keep him .....for now anyway!

Josiah is now in our room. We have had such a good day holding him whenever we want with no tubes or wires to worry about. Daddy went to work, GG kept Addie and BB spent the day with Mommy and Josiah.

The plan is to get to go home tomorrow!!!
