Valentine's Day & Joshua's Birthday...

Got bored while waiting for el Jacob to come home so I tried on my wedding dress. One year after having a child and it still fits, Yeah! I wanted to see if it would fit, and after watching "Say Yes to the dress" I really wanted to try it on again because wedding dress shopping is just so fun!





Joshua loves to copy dad and sometimes dad gives me a foot rub and Joshua decided to join in.


Finally Joshua gets to devour a birthday cake. One that is free of milk and eggs! He had a lot of fun but it wasn't quite as exciting as I had hoped for. Oh, well.






Joshua had fun on his birthday that we celebrated about 1 month later. He didn't really like the cake so much but had fun digging around in it. He likes the frosting more than the actual cake.

Joshua lost weight from his last appointment, about 3 lbs but that was due to the sickness. He loves to push the grocery carts around and cries when I make him put it away. Joshua had a great birthday and got some really neat things from both Grandma's and my siblings! Thanks everybody for your gifts!

For Valentine's day we celebrated it on that Friday because our Stake had a Dinner. We took Joshua dressed in his little tux from our family's July wedding and he was a big hit! He loved walking around so everyone could see how cute he was. Matt & I would watch people stare as they watched Joshua walk from one end of the gym to the next. Matt & I didn't do much that weekend but it was exactly what we needed. We had a movie marathon over the weekend and it was great! North & South, Sense & Sensibility, two episodes of Grey's Anatomy. It was great! We really needed a veg day because we are always so busy and trying to keep up with Joshua. Valentine's was great and I'm so lucky I have such a thoughtful, incredibly caring husband!

P.S. We did our taxes and are getting bank! Thank you Uncle Sam!!!!!!! Love that!
