Found a few spare minutes...

This time of the year is such a love/hate relationship for us. We are tired of being cooped up in the house, but then when we go outside, we become sick from all the allergies! The kids are dealing with some sinus and allergy issues, which is making us all very miserable. I am looking forward to being able to take the kids swimming and to play outside in the sunshine without the annoyance of snot, headaches, sneezing, coughing, and fever!

Anyway, so a couple of days ago I planted some Bermuda grass in the back yard, then it rained, and now the sun is out! So we are expecting a plush, green, and fun yard very soon.

Josh is crawling! He's still slow about it, but I think that's because he hasn't been feeling well. Josh is different than I remeber James being. James was never very vocal and he breezed through the different milestones and stages more quickly than most babies. He was almost always serious and didn't have time to 'play'. He studied his toys to figure out how they worked instead of just having fun and playing with them. Josh is quite different. He is VERY vocal and is such a ham! Josh is a cuddle bug and loves to play, laugh, and chill. Don't get me wrong, there are times when he knows what he wants and is diffucult to please...but for the most part, he is very content and happy. Josh really hates for his diaper to be anything else but dry. He's seven months old now and seems to be getting better with the issue. James was exactly opposite! He couldn't care less if his diaper was wet or dirty!! It's so funny yet interesting how the two could be the same but different in so many ways. James' vocabulary is still ever expanding and we are actually able to have 'conversations', instead of just having to read each other's minds! lol! I have pictures to upload, but will have to do that later.

Robby and I are doing well and enjoying watching our children grow. Our 6 year wedding anniversary is coming up in June! I'm so excited an can't wait wait to get away for a couple of days. I guess that's all for now. I'll post pictures later!
