So I am a little behind in getting Joshua's blog started. They say that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. I think it counts even if it takes several months to getting around to imitating something. Well, this blog is inspired by our dear friends, the Hakes and their beautiful daughter Annika who is the heroine of the "Adventures of Annika", http://adventuresofannika.blogspot.com/.
January and February have been big months for Joshua. He figured out how to roll over from his back to his stomach on January 24th and he has been rolling non-stop ever since. As you can see from the picture, Joshua has a Roly-Poly body so once he gets some momentum going, it's pretty easy to roll across the whole floor.
Our poor doggies are sad because they are now banished to the dining room only when Joshua is on the floor, but this is only temporary until Joshua figures out how to walk - and maybe until Joshua outweighs the puppies.
Another big development this month is Joshua's 1st tooth! Granny Lydia, our babysitter, found the tooth last week. It's just a little white spot on the inside of his bottom gum for now, but our baby is well on his way to having a full set of teeth for eating!
Something that has not happened yet is that Joshua has not really figured out how to sit up by himself on the floor. He can sit for about 30 seconds, but then he falls over. And it would be okay if he fell over if he knew how to put his arms out to catch himself. But he doesn't. Instead, Joshua face-plants into the carpet (usually carpet) instead. We are going to have to work on this.
Well, that's enough about our roly-poly baby for now. I'll leave you with some more pictures though, because they are my favorite part.
