Hey Buddies

Josie loves to hang out with her pals Lane & Carter almost as much as she loves looking out the window!

Picture it... March 19th, 2008

This was a big day in the Bemis household for our dear Joslyn Marie. For this is the day that she learned how to crawl (forward, she mastered backwards months ago!) Plus her shoes, that are size 0-6months also finally fit this week. Yes, she is 9 months old, yes she has tiny piggies.

The first time Josie crawled forward was to Daddy. He picked her up from school and she was so excited to see him she moved forward. And since then she has been moving and grooving. She now crawls pretty darn fast. You see her little eyes catch something and then she is off! Josie started hopping today like a bunny. She gets so hyper she starts hopping. Sometimes she hops so big that she looses her balance and falls backwards. This results in a big belly laughter from all in the room.

One BIG Happy

Josie had a great Easter weekend in Omaha. As usual, when she goes to Omaha, she gets spoiled rotten. Between purple ponies to monkeys galore Josie got it all for Easter.

Rascally Rabbits!

Big cousin Maeve came to the wonderful metropolis of Des Moines to help yell "Surprise!!!" to Billy at his MBA graduation party. The day after Josie and Maeve turned into two rascally rabbits right before our eyes. It was great practice for Easter which is only a couple of weeks away!

JDRF Walk

Josie accomplished her first walk, and it was a great walk to finish. Every year since I have worked at Integer I have taken part in the JDRF walk. It brought be much joy to share the walk experience with Billy and Josie this year. She was a little dazed and confused as it was during nap time and the marching band was kicking it into high gear. But unlike some kids who would freak out and the sound of the band, Josie kept her cool. As noted by another fellow walker, she was sucking on her pacifier to the beat of the drums!
