My Valentine

Yesterday was Joshua's first Valentine's Day. It was extra special because he got to visit with his Grandma and Grandpa. Then today he got to wish his Grandottie a Happy Birthday!

On Thursday Joshua went for his 6 month well-baby appointment. Here are his stats: Weight 16lbs 4 oz, Length 27 3/4" And his head circumference was "perfect." It always cracks me up when I go to these visits because they tell me percentile wise his stats. They are Weight 25%, Length 75%, and his head is... perfect. I've learned this is code for big as I've typed in his circumference at Babycenter.com, but Joshua comes by it honest as his mommy and daddy have big heads. Anyway he had one oral vaccine and 3 shots. He did so good. He was serious for the first, his face turned red for the second, and he wailed for the third. But I immediately picked him up and he stopped crying. He even smiled and flirted with the nurse. Joshua has such a sweet disposition!
That evening his Grandma and Grandpa came to town. They kept him on Friday while he was fussy from his vaccinations. They also watched him Saturday night so Matt and I could go out for dinner. We were going to do dinner and a movie, but due to Valentine's crowds we never made it to the movie. We still had a really nice time.I should mention Joshua "made" a special Valentine for his mommy and daddy. It has his thumbprint and is signed "thumbody loves you." Also at daycare he made an art project with his handprints and footprints that is really sweet. Below is a picture. It made his mommy and daddy say Awwwwww!
