Settling in to life

Joshua has had a great week! He is walking with his walker all over the house & looks like he will be giving it up soon! We took him out to eat Wed night for the first time. We just went to Ayala's on the mountain & sat outside. They had live music that night & he enjoyed it. He really loves music. He likes to sit at the piano in my lap & bang away while Scott plays. He also enjoys the radio turned up loud in the car! This week Caleb & Emalee Grace each had a friend with them in the car & they were singing & dancing to Switchfoot. Joshua loved it! He just smiled & clapped right along with them. He is definitely not hurting for stimulation!
We found out this week that he does not like grass! He will walk in it if you hold his hands, but he doesn't like sitting in it at all! He's so funny - he trys to hold both feet up & balance on his bottom because he doesn't want to touch the grass! He does love to be outside - he just prefers to be carried around!
He is still following Scott all over the house. That baby loves his daddy! He calls him "da da" frequently & can point to him when looking at a picture & asked "Where's daddy?" He is beginning to respond to the name "Joshua"; it's not consistent yet but he will turn his head when you call him now (which he wasn't doing last week). He seems to be adjusting very well. He's still napping a lot & eating well. This sweet lil guy is such a joy! I still can't believe he is really here & I can't believe this is my life! He is such a blessing!
