Pears And Paris


Dearest Joshua David~

Hello cutie!  You slept better last night!  You're still congested today, but still no fever.  

Today is your Grandpa Mike's birthday!  :-)  He and Mimi are still in France, though they will be flying back tomorrow.  I believe they get into Raleigh really late tomorrow evening.  They sent us this photo of the Eiffel Tower today!  Daddy sent him a quick "Happy Birthday" email from all of us.  I'm sure once everyone is adjusted to the right time zone, we'll go celebrate and we can give him the gift we got. 



Guess what .... you tried pears for the first time today!  You almost gobbled down an entire 3 ounce container.  ;-)  So far, you haven't had any food allergies .... you stay healthy!  

By late morning, we were at Gigi's house.  Daddy and I dropped off my car to get inspected and the oil changed.  It passed inspection (yippie!), but I do need to get something fixed.  :-P  While the car was in the shop, daddy and I put some things aside to take back to our house.  We also loaded two bookshelves into Grandpa Jim's truck to take back.  You played with Gigi and Grandpa Jim.  We all ate lunch there and visited for a while until it was time to pick up the car.  You actually fell asleep on Grandpa Jim for about 2 hours.  :-P

Once we got home, we unpacked more things and daddy and Grandpa Jim brought the bookshelves into the bonus room.  

We had a pretty relaxing evening straightening things.  Uncle Brennan and Aunt Katie came over after dinner.  Aunt Katie went shopping this weekend and got you a lot of toys!  One toy was a pillow soccer ball.  You like to roll that around and played with that the rest of the evening.  :-)  You showed them how you can get up onto your knees!  

This evening, daddy clipped your nails and then you fell asleep on me after a bottle.  I held you for a little bit before putting you in your bed.  You continued sleeping even after I put you down (a lot of times you wake back up and fuss a while before falling back to sleep). 

Sleep tight little one!

I love you very much!  :-)
