A Long Overdue Joshua Update...

We cannot believe it has been almost seven months since we last posted a picture of Joshua! He is growing up very quickly, and when the camera is not nearby we are always trying to take "snapshots" with our minds so we don't forget any part of this special time. We are constantly amazed at the new things Joshua can do and say, and the adventure only continues to grow sweeter. One thing is for sure: his precious life continues to utterly overwhelm us with God's incredible grace, for we certainly do not deserve such an unbelievable blessing as him.
Here are some photos to make up for lost time...
Joshua now really enjoys riding his "car" around the house. In early June, we headed off to Miami with the McGown Family.
It was a wonderful trip and many happy memories were made together.
Joshua LOVED his first trip to the beach.

Joshua and cousin Hailey had a wonderful time dancing together on the boat.


First time experiencing the waves...
Watering the grass (and patio and everything else...) is one of Joshua's simple pleasures

Running through the Dallas Arboretum Sleeping on the couch while he had an early summer cold


Celebrating buddy Luke's first birthday!




Uncle Jay is always quick to help out when Joshua starts asking for "agua"


One of our favorite things to do when mommy gets home from work--DANCING! Up until recently when the heat index in Houston began to stick at over 100 degrees,
we spent lots of time playing in our backyard together...
