Grandpa!



While mommy and daddy were in the hospital with the twins, Josie got to have a whole week with grandpa. She just loves her grandpa and we don't know what we would have done without him. Josie got to show grandpa her school and how she swings at the park. In this picture, grandpa is reading to her about being a big sister! We can't wait for Josie to meet the boys.

All Aboard



Josie has begun to figure out when it is the weekend as she wakes up on Saturday's and says, "Farmer's market?" Erin and I love the farmer's market too, lots of great food and people watching. Josie especially loves the train. Loves to ride around pumping her fist yelling, "choo choo!"

Up Up and Away




What is Josie looking at you ask, why all the balloons of course! We took Josie down to the Balloon Festival in Indianola, IA. It was our first time there and it was great. Josie got to run around, mom and dad got to relax on the grass, and we all got to eat lots of food. There were about 75 balloons and they just kept taking off. When we left Josie said, "Come back later?" She obviously had a great time.

What a character!

After dinner tonight, since Josie ate everything on her plate, we said she could have a popsicle in the backyard. She decided she would rather go to the park instead (she is smart, as I am sure when she gets back she will ask for a popsicle). So Josie said "Go park instead Daddy?" when Billy said OK. She said, "Bye Bye mommy, relax ok mommy, take care!" and leaned in for a kiss. Crack me up! Obviously when Billy leaves he emphasizes that I should be relaxing and Josie has caught on. When I hang up the phone with people I usually say take care. She picks up on everything!
