February Josie Pics and General Update

Happy Valentine's Day Josie!

January and February were pond hockey months.

We had alot of friends over to skate on the pond

and enjoyed spending time with everyone. Mom

is still scared of falling thru even though dad
says the ice is very thick. We managed to get

everyone on the ice for a few minutes to take some

pics. We were really bad about pictures this

month as you'll see. So I'll try to fill everyone in

on what Josie is doing.

Josie and mom only a few inches from solid ground.

Josie is running with her walker, she runs over feet,

cats,shoes, anything that is in her path. She has alot

of teeth, now. It just seems like all of a sudden she has a

full mouth of teeth including pre-molars.

She was doing better with eating this month, it's up

and down. She's eating in her high chair this month,

but still needs coaxing. Loves Broccolli right now.

And she loves bananas and hats!

Josie has been in daycare since January and has been

very sick. This month was very hard on her. She

was sick for the entire month with a cough and high

temp on and off along with her poor little nose dripping

constantly. February was her last month of daycare,

the negatives outweighed the positives at this time.

She was sick too much and didn't seem to be getting

anything out of it except for lots of germs.

Josie walking around holding on to the window. She's still not
taking steps unless she has something close by to hold on to.

This month we discovered Steve Songs. He's a PBS crooner :)

She stops cold when she sees him on PBS morning. We looked

for him on the WWW, and found his videos on youtube. Don't

you just love the internet! She loves his songs and will eat

willingly when we play his videos. Josie loves Steve Songs,

and so does mom, he hypnotizes us :) Dad has noticed this a time

or two - When I should be feeding her, I end up watching the videos

with her even though we've both seen them a 100 times.

Josie got some new shoes this month, she actually got 2 pairs, both

pink. She's moving a little better with them. They help her get a

better grip, but she's still very awkward when she moves around.
