3 months already!

Well.. 3 months have come and already in his first week of his 3rd month and hes starting to explore new things. Just before he turned 3 months I heard his first laugh. I have not got to get this on video yet but Im sure once he starts doing it more often I will have to record him. :) He is also kicking a lot and starting to hold things a little. Here is a video of Joe talking away after I just changed him. Joe I think loves being naked? Everytime we go to change his dipaer or his clothes he just starts smiling away. :)

Here are a few pics of Joe at 3 months.

This one I got him smiling! :)

This picture is of Joe in his Bumbo seat with a Monkey that Aunt Tanya gave him.

What a face! PRICELESS!!!!

Keep checking back for more updates. It does sometimes take me a while to add new things because little Joe is keeping Mommy very busy. Joe has his next Dr. Apt in less then a month for his 4 month check-up, will keep you all updated how hes growing once we see the Dr.

Hope everyone has a wonderful 4th of July!!

2 month check up

Joseph had his 2 month check up on Thursday and he did wonderful for the most part until the shots came. :( Although the nurse said that she has had worse. They gave him 4 shots and something he had to drink which he loved. :) Everything with the check up with the doctor was super, he is almost right on target with babies his age. His weight now is 13 lbs and 7 oz can you believe it. :O wow huh! I asked the doctor if his weight was ok? He said that he is long for his age and that his weight was fine. His height is 23.5 inches, I dont know where he will get his height from since both of us are not that tall. :) Hes are growing healthy boy and overall everything went really well. He will not have his next check up till his 4 month visit unless other circumstances would occur before that, which I hope not.

Planning on a baptismal for him soon at Seven Holy Founders next month or July? Will know a date by next Thursday after we meet with the Priest. I will let you all know when it is when I find out if you are interested in coming.

Here is a recent picture of Joseph that I took last week. :) just a random picture i snapped and it looks like he is dancing.

results from UltraSound

Just wanted to let everyone know that the UltraSound went great. Dr. Checked both sides of Joe's hips and everything was perfect. :) Im so happy that he was ok. Next apt. for Joe will be his 2 month check up.

This wednesday he will be going to NoNa's and Nono's house if I spelled that right meaning Grandma and Grandpa in Itailian. While we are in Florida he will be having a good time over there. He will be in good hands while we are away and we have lots of people who can take him to the Dr. if need be. I wish we could of taken Joe with us on our family trip, just not the right timing. Next time for sure he will be joining us and hopefully another sibling as well. No No.. not pregnant again yet.. we want to wait another year before we try again. :)

Well.. Not much other news since he hasnt been back to the doctors, will keep everyone up to date when I hear other news or get new pictures of our growing boy.

Have a wonderful week.

Picture Day

Hey Everyone, Have some pictures finally huh? :) Went to the picture People in the Mall yesterday and they did so good with Joe. Here are some of the proofs.

Easter 2009

Picture of Joe's hand and Feet. We had taken our wedding rings off to put on Joes tiny toes, was so cute.

Hey Everyone sorry its been a little since I last wrote, been busy with Joe. :) Everything has been going good just sleeping has been tough a few nights. Joe had his 2 week check up on Monday and everything went really well. Doctor Matt said that his weight, height is all where it should be. :) Dr. Matt did mention that when he was checking Joe's hips he noticed a little clicking. In two weeks Matt would like us to go back to St. Johns and get an ultra sound done of his hips just to be on the safe side. Worse thing would be Joe will have to wear a brace on him at night which will fix the problem. It might not even be anything but its better to catch things like this now and him be ok. :)

Update on his height and weight at two weeks are 9 pounds and 21 inches long. :) Hes our growing boy. :)


Sorry I still dont have any pics yet, I hope to have more time soon to post them. Keep checking back and I should have them on here soon. :)

This Saturday we have an apt. to get Joe's pictures taken. And I am excited because this Sunday is Easter and it will be Joe's first. :) We plan on going to Ben's parents house for Easter and I would like to go to church in the morning, we will see how things go with Joe.

Hope everyone has a great Easter!

Well.. as most of everyone knows Joe is finally here and will have more pics to post once i get them uploaded to my computer. When Joe and us left the hospital on Saturday the 21st his weight was 8 pounds exactly. Joe had his first Dr. visit on Monday the 23rd and the doctor was very happy to see him so healthy and he was back to his birth weight at 8 pounds 4 oz. The Dr. told us that we were doing a great job and to keep up the good work. :) The one thing Joe did have was Jondis which is something that will clear up on its on. We took him back to St. Johns on Monday and Tuesday for him to re test again since on Monday it was a little high. Tuesday we got the test results back and it went down, so looks like he will just be spending a little time in the sun to help his color. :) The Dr. said that he is looking good and will see us in 2 weeks for another check up.

This week we just have been learning about each other and trying to get some kind of pattern down. Nights have been OK, still a little hard with the sleeping but not too bad. His eating habits are wonderful, he takes almost 4 oz every 3 hrs.

Here are a couple pics I took with my computer, more to follow. I tried to have him more awake sorry!

Talk to everyone soon.

Almost 39 weeks

Well everyone.. I will be 39 weeks next week and still just waiting for baby Joe to arrive, I'm sure it can be any day now. :) Last Dr. Apt was on Tuesday and still everything is the same and steady, still not dilated yet. :( My next Dr. apt will be next Wednesday, i sure hope there is a sign by then of Joe arriving soon. Now I just have to sit and wait patently. This may be the last time I write till baby Joe arrives. I will keep everyone informed or Ben will.

Talk to you all soon!
