WOW...time sure does fly by


Time is just flying by!!!! Days, weeks are running together. We had a great holiday weekend!!! Vacation was great. Josie did great on the way down...loved the ocean. But would fall asleep every time watching the waves comes in...She enjoyed the lazy river...I have so many pictures to upload..just have not had time.

Now for some Josie updates!!!
She is growing so fast!!! We have not went to the dr since last month. But she is finally got of her size 0 shoes..She is now wearing 3-6 months clothes. June 17th while at the beach she finally sat up alone!!! Must have been the sand :)
June 29th We were getting ready for church, she was ready we sat her in the crib
I was trying to get ready turned around there she STOOD!!!! She was laughing and just the biggest smile on her face!!!! She was sooooo proud of her self!! Too cute!
While at church she held her bottle the entire time she ate..Now she does it all the time!! She doesn't want to crawl..she wants to RUN!!!! She will hold your fingers and walk everywhere...and she is trying to let go of our fingers!!! She thinks she can do it by her self...Little Miss Independent!! LOL
She is eating GREAT!! Loves ALL of her foods even prunes!! LOL
SHe is babbling, she loves our cat...and you can call for the cat..and she looks for him. While at my sister's house they said she tried to call for their cat! Danny and I have a bet going if she says Dadda first I have to pay him $100.00 hehe and if she says Momma first I get the 100.00...Josie of course will get that money in clothes :)

I was going to take the blog private and thought about it..and thought that maybe my blog helps new adoptive parents more than I thought...So, I think I will leave it alone for now. I know for experience that I needed to read others blog...

I'm sorry I haven't had the time nor energy to update my blog or comment on my favorite bloggers...I think of my "blogger buddies" all the time and pray for each and every family...So, until next time...

Blessings

It is great to "hear" from you and to see your family together. Yeah Josie, pulling up to stand on her own! She is such a cutie!
We have our referral and are going to Bishkek Aug. 3 to meet our girl!
Until we are done, we will keep our blog private. I will send an invite to you although I know you are very busy these days!!!

SO glad to hear from you. I thought you'd gone private without me!! Great news about Josie sitting, standing and making such great progress. Words to the wise: enjoy while she's NOT talking because once they start, well, you know, you have two boys! :)

I am so glad that I took a chance and looked at your blog again. Thanks for not going private! Josie looks so happy and she is incredibly lucky to have those older brothers. Jyly adores her older brothers but she can't wait to meet her baby sister.
