11 months!
Just a quick post this time around. Joselyn has not been napping, which means I don't have much uninterrupted time to update her blog. She is currently in her little tunnel(see video at the bottom of this post) so I have a couple minutes:)

Joselyn's first steps!!!
I said if I got it on video I would post, and HERE IT IS! Our baby girl is walking, or rather taking a few wobbly steps then falling down/lowering down and crawling the rest of the way. Either way, she is taking independent steps...without the help of mommy or daddy...all on her own. What a big girl she is:)

Snowed in!
This week Fayetteville got 5 inches of snow, followed by a 1/4inch of ice. So of course everything was closed for 2 1/2 days, including post!
After being in the house for 2 days, we decided to bundle Joselyn up and go for a walk
Just to make sure she was warm enough, she wore 2 pairs of socks, 2 pairs of mittens and 2 hats and was stuffed into a snow suit and covered by a blanket. She wasn't too impressed with the outfit, but liked the walk:)
We almost turned around before we even got started, because we could barely get up our driveway. Everything that looks wet is actually super slick ice. Getting down was even more precarious!
After our walk, I made hot chocolate and Joselyn and daddy got in some snuggles.
yay for snow in North Carolina:)
Joselyn has been teething for the past 3 months. It has been non stop. Recently she has been extra crazy, biting anything she can, the table, the high chair, my shoulder, my collar bone, and the couch to name a few. I was finally able to get my finger in her mouth and found a MOLAR popping through. A MOLAR!
Remember when she would taunt this monkey in her bed? Well now she wrestles it, daily. This video is a little long, just to warn you.
She has also started taking steps!! We have yet to get any on video yet, but have cameras all over the house so we can try to catch it when it happens. She has taken up to 4 consecutive steps, and looks just like a baby giraffe trying to walk for the first time.
ALMOST!!

Joselyn's first Christmas!
People have been noticing that I am rarely in the pictures that I post. So I thought I would try to get a self portrait of Joselyn and myself. This is what I saw when I looked back at the pictures. Oh how I wish we were centered. That face makes me laugh so hard. I guess Joselyn is not a fan of self portraits:)
She is so silly:)
and so sweet!
But mostly silly!!

Once again, the monthly quilt picture ended up being "good enough!" After multiple attempts on different days, this is the best I got.
Jay and I gave Joselyn her Christmas presents before we left for New York. She is a big fan of the ball popper. I dare you to not laugh;)
We spent Joselyn's first Christmas up in NY with our families. We had SO much fun! Christmas eve was spent at Aunt Lisa and Uncle Peters house. We tried to get a picture of Nana with all her grand babies, but Elise was not in the picture taking mood. The addition of Gina (who is actually carrying grand baby number 5) did not help. This is the best one that I got, maybe Jamie got a better one with her camera:)
Christmas morning was spent at Nana's house and everybody had a great time opening presents.
A couple days later, we went to Eastview mall and Joselyn took her first ride on a carousel! She loved it!
The next day, the stomach flu ran rampant through the house. So no pictures were taken until New Years. We went to hibachi for New Years Eve dinner...at 4pm to accommodate bed times:)
The last thing we did before leaving NY was go to the Little Gym for a holiday party! Our good friend Laurie planned the whole thing. All the kiddies had so much fun. And although most of the activities were a little advanced for Joselyn, the bouncy thing made up for it in spades:)
The whole group! We all went to high school together and now here we all are with kids!
We had such a wonderful time in NY, and even though were were there for 2 weeks, it wasn't long enough. We miss you all so much! Till next time... MUAH!
