josiah and benjamin

logan and i have been enjoying our last few weeks with josiah as an only child. he is so sweet and so much fun, it's hard to imagine being blessed with another son. it's also true that i am completely wiped out trying to keep up with this little guy everyday, when my belly is bulging, my legs and back ache, and all my body wants to do is sleep!!! i can't wait to be done with this pregnancy. i'm 35 weeks along now, hoping for another early birth. and i'm freeeeaaaakkked out about going through that trauma again!!! i'm sure it will be better this time around, but not knowing what to expect is hard when you've got terrible memories of the first time. josiah was worth every minute. and benjamin will be much smaller....:)

we're baaaaaaack!!!

hello dear friends and family!!! it's been two months since my last blog, and i apologize for keeping you in the dark for so long. we were having internet issues here at home, but now we're wireless!!!!! yay!!!!!! it used to take my computer 40 minutes to download five pics to this site via dial-up, and it literally took less than a minute tonight!!!! i'm very excited. i'm even thinking about blogging again tomorrow to make up for lost time. :)

for tonight, i'm just going to post some pics of josiah from the past two months with brief descriptions. it's getting late, and logan is beyond ready for bed. :)

logan took josiah to nc to visit family for five days in september.

unfortunately, i forgot to send the digital camera with them!!!

this is when i picked them up at the airport.

take note of josiah's harness/leash, and his insistance on pushing the stroller. :)

logan, josiah, mom, dad, and i went to the fryeburgh fair a couple weeks ago.
josiah continues to be obsessed with tractors, so he was very impressed by the fair.
other highlights were the cows, goats, harness races, and the merry-go-round.

logan and i had a yard sale labor day weekend.
i included this pic because i want you to see how logan kept josiah from running into the road...
he's tied to a tree!!! :)

josiah 'riding' a tractor a couple weeks ago.
he's speaking in sentences now, as well as prolonged monologues of gibberish.

WHEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
this child never stops moving....he zooms down his slide at the speed of light. :)
i can't help but think that he must be the most adorable little boy.
