My Tiny Obsession

Warning: This is 100% a mommy obsession blog over my favorite little person.
Aka lots of pictures (and even some videos) of Joshua being awesome!

Joshua has changed a ton just in the last 2 months.


He rolls EVERYWHERE and is pretty close to crawling.


He loves to eat his dad's nose.
I don't really know why, but it's cute.


He really loves his daddy, especially when his daddy tickles him.


This is probably my favorite shirt of his. 
Who doesn't love the classics?


Joshua has gotten really good at sitting up and playing with his toys.
He can't get into the sitting position by himself yet, but he's got time.


That face kills me! *swooning*


A few weeks ago we started to introduce baby food.
He doesn't seem to care for most of except applesauce.
He likes it apparently only when I feed it to him though (he spits it out for anyone else).


He has a jumper/bouncer toy that he LOVES.
He will bounce for hours on end until he is ready to nap.


On the 4th of July he got to see fireworks for the first time.
Baby logic: "Oh big explosions......cool......"
*mom sneezes* "Ahhhhh! I must burst into tears!"

Anyone else get that logic?


We've started a fun little tradition of bringing him in our room when we're trying to let him relax before bed. We watch a little show on netflix while he sits in bed with us until it's time for bed and then we have his bedtime routine. 



He's a pretty chill baby boy.
He doesn't mind just hanging out with daddy while he reads. It's pretty sweet.


This kid is pretty great!
I've decided 6 months old is when they really start becoming addicting.
He's so fun and spunky and I feel incredibly blessed to be his mom.
He is the best little person ever and I cannot imagine my life without him.

For your patience here are some videos of him playing and laughing:



On a side note he likes to fake cough and make spitting noises...
(Sometimes those mean "no")

Family Fun

One of the coolest things about my sister coming to visit was getting to see our kids together.
Joshua and her little girl are not quite 2 months apart and so obviously we want them to be close buddies.




It was fun to see them interact with each other.
When Joshua first met his cousin at the airport, his initial reaction was to reach out and touch her.
I like to think he had fun meeting another small person like himself.

They often would grab each other's binkies to the other;s dismay, but it was cute.
I do hope they will be good friends one day.

Another little adventure we had was finding this cute creek at one of the local parks.







 DO NOT BE FOOLED! That water was FREEZING!
My brother-in-law decide to build a dam with his son's help.


And possibly my brother's help.


Albert helped his sweet little girl discover the creek which she liked to look at, but not be in it so much. His wife was the cleaver one and opted out of the cold water, partially due to carrying another baby girl.


My nephew being sneaky, but luckily threw that rock the other way rather than hitting his daddy.

 Garett and Joshua had a fun time as Garett carried him while walking up and down in the stream. 
I walked around in it a few times, but eventually my better judgement kicked in as the numbness wore off my feet.


Joshua did get a little grumpy so we decide to have fun with it and all pretend to be grumpy too.


Funny that no matter how old we get, you can't take the child out of us all.
