some things about seven

Joseph is seven months old today. And he weighs seventeen pounds, eight ounces, and is twenty-seven and a half inches long.

July is the seventh month.

And we are in seventh heaven.

Just a few things to mention about this video...

1. Joseph does have toys. We don't just make him play with a trash can and bank statements.

2. His shirt has a normal t-shirt neckline. We don't usually dress him anything that plunging. It just stretches with the shimmy.

3. How exciting! Joseph can kind of crawl! Time to move a lot of things in our house!

twice the fun

Joseph met his new friends, Evan and Teya Midmer, on Saturday. He loved having a friend on the left and on the right... someone to look at everywhere you turn...

And this is us with our practice dog, Guilford.

Thanks, Val and Mike, for having us over. We look forward to future playdates!!

@ the movies

Joseph took us to the drive-in last night. We watched Ice Age and Wolverine. He slept. Kind of. We may wait until he is 5 before we do this again.

joe's swim club

It's just him. He's the only one who can fit in the pool. Plus, he skinny dips so that put a damper on membership.

sunday

Aaahhh... High Park. Beautiful and relaxing, especially on a lazy dazy Sunday afternoon. Thanks, Lise and Phil, for the invitation and for packing the best picnic food. 

de kantorz

We invited all the Kantors over today to celebrate Joseph's Baptism. Great-Grandma came, too, so we deemed the event family-picture-worthy.
