Lucky Number 7

Yesterday was a milestone for my sweet little baby on many levels.

First, he turned 7 months old! Where has the time gone? Man, it's going waaaaaaaaaaay too fast.

Second, Joshua went into the pool for the first time without screaming!!! This baby has hated the water since he was born. No joke. Bloody-murder screams throughout his entire bath. When I put his feet in the pool water on Monday, same screams. I kept thinking it was going to be a looooooooong summer with this guy. Then I saw how 7 was going to be his lucky number.

Tuesday, Josh turned 7 months old. We went to the pool again. My good friend, Brandy, who was swimming with us and some other friends just took Josh out of my arms at the pool and bounced him around in the water. He cried, whined, and then............was quiet! I couldn't believe it!



I took my turn with him and he was so relaxed and just about fell asleep on my shoulder. I was feeling super lucky (you know with the whole 7 thing) and gave him a bath last night to test my luck. There was a short whimper and then smiles. He actually enjoyed the bath!

The number 3 used to be my lucky number. Now it's 7.

I guess you need to have one more kid then, huh? That would total 7! :)

It is hard to believe that Jessica is old enough to get married. The funny thing is that we haven't aged at all!! Right?!?!

Okay, my first thought was OMG, she's pregnant and I'm finding out about it on her blog AGAIN!
