Joshua

Joshua still isn't crawling yet, but he is getting very close.  He's kinda crawled a couple times but gives up quickly.  Last night he was trying to pull himself up to a standing position.  The problem was that he was in the middle of taking a bath.  Bathtubs are not the best place to learn how to stand.  I was watching him closely and he gots his legs under him while holding on to the side of his tub.  After a bit of grunting, he managed to straighten his legs while still holding the sides.  When he got to that position, he didn't know what to do next.  I helped him back down before he did a face-plant into the water.
He is starting to notice music more often and likes to bounce his along with it.  As my mom stated, "I didn't know 'Old McDonald' was a head-banging song."

I love his laugh.  Especially when he is in a good mood and anything you do sets him off.  He has also started blowing spit-bubbles and making raspberry sounds. Usually it's pretty funny, but not so much when he does it during a sermon at church.  I told the pastor afterward that it wasn't any indication of Josh's opinion.  The pastor said he didn't mind, as long as it isn't the elders doing it during his sermon.
