When I wrote the last post, I forgot to mention all the new things Joshua is doing these days! He started feeling better finally, by the way... and now as he sleeps, he's coughing again, which is so frustrating. Anyway...
So, Joshua sits up all by himself, and I don't even have to put pillows behind him 'just in case' anymore. He's clapping, waving, saying 'all done' with sign language, pointing and exploring the use of his index finger, saying 'da da' and 'ma ma'... not really directing it at me or Jude, but we still like it! He babbles quite a bit, and I feel like every day he says new sounds. He feeds himself puffs, and eats them now without gagging! He still LOVES his walker, and has started actually running through the house in it now :) he's SO close to crawling... I really think he's a little bit behind with crawling, just because he'd much rather be in his walker, and get around that way. I've really tried to limit his time in the walker, and have him spend more time on the floor.
I think that's about it :) He still continues to be such a happy baby... and I'm so thankful for his health! I'm really praying this cough goes away without becoming serious again. Our baby boy is so big now... 8 months old! I can't believe it. I'm already starting to think about his first birthday! He's such a cute boy, and I just love him so much.
Ok, that's all for now :)
