Joseph

We are so proud of how hard this little man has worked to get where he is. Joseph has such a determined spirit, he doesn't let anything get him down. We notice this even in the everyday things. For example, when he gets his finger pinched by toy or has a hard time with a task he is attempting, he continues to work at it to figure out what it takes to get it right.

Joseph's sense of humor is also something that has impressed us. At the dinner table, if someone tells a funny story, he laughs at the perfect time. He is quite social and many of his facial expressions remind us of my dad, Grandpa Pat, who was also very entertaining at the dinner table.

Now that Joseph's strength and stamina have improved, he has focused intently on walking without holding on. Having two toddlers walking in opposite directions is the definition of a manic Momma!
