On Camera Again

Joseph and I just got home from a morning spent working at Chick-Fil-A. I'm very fortunate that Joseph is such a good boy that I'm able to take him with me. In addition to all the regular Cow Appreciation Day hooplah, a camera crew came in from our corporate office to get some footage to be used for the annual seminar. They seemed to love Joseph in his little cow onesie (who wouldn't?!) so I'm pretty sure he'll be appearing on the big screen.

Local Celebrity

Joseph (and his Momma) made a guest appearance on the local TV show - Lowcountry Live - this morning. Momma was promoting Chick-Fil-A's Cow Appreciation Day and Joseph appeared as a calf.

Isn't he the cutest calf ever?

This is our tuckered out little calf about half-way through his 3-hour nap afterwards. . . .

Here is a link to the blog of the photographer who did Natalie's wedding. She has some great pictures of Natalie & Jon's wedding on her site.

Jon & Natalie's Wedding

Okay - I realize these aren't the greatest because they're captured from our video camera. . . . but they'll have to do for now.

Other cute pictures from last week

Natalie's wedding

Much to our chagrin, we discovered that we spent so much time playing with our new video camera at Natalie's wedding, we forgot to take pictures. So - we have 1 solitary picture. I can play with our video camera again and save some still shots. . . . but it's going to take a little bit. Until then. . . . .

Joseph & Rudy

Joseph really loved hanging out with Rudy last week . . . as per usual. I think our boy needs a dog.

9 Months Old

Little Joe turned 9 months old while we were in Indiana last week. He is a fun, crazy little boy and is discovering new things every day. We don't go in for his doctor appt. for another week so I have no weight/height stats yet but here are a few of his latest accomplishments.

1) Crawling - he crawls everywhere . . . and fast. We've finally had to be diligent about making sure doors and baby gates are closed.

2) Pulling up - he pulls up on the baby gate and tries to push the button that opens it. He also pulls up on the TV and plays with all of those buttons - turning the volume up and down, turning it off. He's also getting the hang of sitting back down gracefully.

3) Walking - ok, he's not really walking yet but he can scoot himself around the coffee table and down the length of the sofa.

4) Talking - "Dada" and "Baba" are still the only recognizable words but he does tell quite a few interesting stories that I'm sure make total sense to him. I'm also pretty sure that there is a hidden "mama" in some of the crying that takes place after head butting the coffee table or floor.

5) Food - Joseph is eating pretty much anything and everything. I've started giving him samples of whatever we're eating as long as it's not too spicy and he loves it.

6) Mirrors - I know most babies love mirrors. . . . . and Joseph goes to great lengths to get in front of one. Note to airport bathrooms - putting a mirror by the changing table is not such a great idea. As soon as I got his diaper off, he flipped himself over and pulled up so he was standing up in front if it .. . no diaper. Fun stuff. Also - this is how we found him in our hotel room one morning -

We're back. . .

Just a quick note to say that we're finally back from Indiana. Natalie & Jon's wedding was beautiful and all the work that went into it really paid off. We headed back yesterday morning but were offered some free tickets if we would agree to be bumped. After deciding that we didn't mind spending the day camped out in the Atlanta airport - we agreed. So we got back around 12:30 last night instead of 3:30 yesterday afternoon. It was an adventure. . . . and for the record, Joseph had on the very last diaper in the diaper bag when we finally got on that flight. He was a trooper. And now we have 4-round trip tickets to anywhere AirTran flies as well as $50 off an additional purchase. We also had $20 in meal tickets which we spent yesterday. :-)

Okay - it for now. I need to get ready for the Luau we're having tonight since Sturm is here. Pictures from Indiana to come soon.
