Question & Update w/ Pics

He always has is blankie, binki and a toy... I think I may try a pin or something so he can't move it down. I am thinking this would be a good invention. I can't believe someone hasn't thought of anything to prevent this.

Well now, I had answers in mind then I saw those cutetastic pics and lost my train of thought. A baby piano player, boy after my own heart!

Josiah might be in the high growth percentile, but he looks perfectly proportioned and just right to me. He's so cute, have I already said that?! I can't wait to see him cruising, and you too of course LOL

I invested in a few car toys to keep Ethan occupied at that age. The toys were only for when he was in the carseat and were taken away if he got out of the straps. Yeah, I'm a fan of bribery in some cases. A few times is all it took. Also, maybe a car seat check with local law enforcement? I did one for Ethan and it was really helpful.

Thanks for sharing the photos and hugs to both of you!

Jo

I think I might need to get him some new car toys... he might be bored with the ones he has.

Hope to see you next month! :-)

Erika - I could seriously kiss his cheeks all day - they are sooo adorable.
I'm also extremely jealous that you live in VA Beach - I LOVE LOVE LOVE it there. Andy and I took a random trip there one night after I got out of work - we loved it so much we started looking at apartments and jobs in the paper - then reality hit us and we headed back home.

Thanks Shauna! We do love to kiss his cheeks. He actually just started giving us kisses last night. So cute!!

Va Beach is very nice... I am originally from VT so VA Beach winters are perfect for me! I moved here on a whim 8+ years ago and I am so glad I did. I came w/o a job and only knowing 2 people. It was the best decision I ever made!!

LOVE the pics! He is soooo cute! I love seeing his pics!

As far as the carseat keep saying "no-no" one of my boys did that non-stop I too had to pull over many of times because once he slid it down he would take his arms out and stand up and say "tah dah" hopefully you can get him to stop and I wish I had some words of wisdom!! Good luck!!

Beth

Thanks Beth!
I am sorry but the "tah dah" made me laugh out loud! I had to share that with DH. He has only done it a few times and I don't notice it until I take him out. :sigh: He is quiet as a church mouse in the car... Loves to ride and look out the window. (he is nosey like me) If it continues I think I am going to try a pin of some sort so he can't move it down.

yes I laugh now but could have had a wreck when I looked in my kiddie mirror and saw him standing there and I tell he is still the one who is either going to make me gray OR drive me to drink :-) Oh and he was the quiet one...that just meant he was back there figuring things out!
I would definitely see about finding something to pin it to avoid your  "tah dah" moments :-)
let us know what you find that works!

Hey My Sweet Beautiful Friend...

HOW ARE YOU???? I miss you and hope you are doing well....

As ALWAYS, Mr. J is gorgeous as ever....he is a strong young man.....I love ALL of the pics....so, what did he do the first time you gave him the lemon? Nathan gets the sourest face on simple things so I would love to see what he would do with a lemon....lol...and where did you get the tunnels and I love the little car...so glad he loves the water too since you and Shawn love the beach so much.....you have been richly blessed my friend.....I cannot wait to meet him one day....any more thoughts about coming to GA?

I have not had the car seat experience yet but I say you invent something and make millions on your invention....Nathan is like me and nosey in the car too....hopefully we won't have the tah dah moments that Beth explained...that was too funny.....

I have been trying to plan Nathan's first birthday party too....I am hoping for my mom to come back here (she just left today) :( and my best wish is that Nate would be home for GOOD.....that is another story....can you believe our little guys are going to be 1 soon????? UGHHHHHH....

Anyway, thanks for sharing about Mr. Gorgeous....post his pics EVERYDAY..... :) Btw, what size is he into clothes wise and what is he eating these days?

Big Hugs and Kisses to you and Mr. J Gorgeous,

Ann and Nathan
