And he is a little guy. I think he's smaller than Hannah was at his age, but Mark's not so sure. The twelve month shorts I've brought him fall right off. I have to roll them sometimes twice to stay up. He is a very happy little boy. He has the cutest wide toothed grin. And that grin breaks out when he sees his Mommy and after six days his Daddy too. He wasn't so sure of Daddy before that. But, cheerios seem to have a special bond for Dad's and their boys. He loves to eat, but, right now it has to be soft foods. He doesn't like anything chunky. His favorites are bananas, yogurt, grits, cheerios, and cheez its. He sleeps through the night and goes to sleep easily. He also likes cars and the musical guitar Daddy bought him. He likes to get his way and if he doesn't he sure lets you know it. Yes, he knows how to throw a tantrum. He loves his big sister and she is wonderful with him. So many times Mark or I have said how she reminds us of her cousin A. with her younger siblings. Already Hannah's helped give him a bath, his bottle and fed him his yogurt. She's right there when I change him too, but, she lets me do that job. Oh yes, there have been a few territory issues but, they're working them out.

Carol and Mark, Now those pictures bring tears to my eyes. Especially the second one. They are so happy. Stan keeps saying he is so little next to Hannah.
Well, its 33 degrees this Am..
When are you coming home? Maybe, you want me toput the heat on right before you come. Or,stuff in the refridg. Does my newest little bear need anything?
We miss you all!
Love Stan,Jody, Nikki, Stanley
Oh what a toothy grin!!! I love it!
Evan says,"Josiah looks funny and cool with sunglasses on?" "Why is he crying in Uncle Mark's lap?" "Sometimes, I like to give my babies a bottle too."
Yes, those pictures definitely bring the tears. Too beautiful for words, the joy is evident. Thank God! Dan says, "man, those are cute kids!!" Love you all, can't wait to see you! Mindi
Yay! I'm so glad your little guy is doing better with his daddy. Congratulations on the progress!
It was so nice meeting you, and I'm looking forward to hearing more about Josiah's journey home.
Great pictures!! Their smiles warm the heart. You can tell Hannah is enjoying her Big Sister role. One day she will understand all the love that it brings!
It won't be long until little Josiah will be wearing a Pujols jersey and listening to Mark tell him to squash the bug. There will be many happy times to come. I love you all, and am so happy for you.

Hi Guys! It's wonderful to see your family together at last. Josiah looks like a happy little guy. I can't wait to meet him in person!

Love those pictures! He looks like he is truly feeling part of the family!
I am sure once you get Josiah home he will settle in and you will be amazed how the tantrums begin to lessen. Our Vu was both tantrum prone and hyper-active those first few weeks but now he is so different--a very laid back kid--he was just grieving and attaching which is hard for all ;-)
Enjoy Vietnam! We can't wait to go back!
Hey! Clay needs to get his own account! He can't post under my picture. Ha ha
