Joseph got his first tooth today! Well, actually, I’m not sure that’s true. We saw his first tooth today; for all we knew, it came through sometime in August. It’s just barely peeking through his gums, though, so it seems to be a pretty recent development.
Peaceful Coexistence, The Movie
Here’s a visual demonstration of just how swimmingly the kids are getting along.
Peaceful Coexistence
And here are the pictures themselves, in which Julia and Joseph get along swimmingly, for the most part.
Bath Time
Reply
We’re clearing out a deep backlog of pictures and video clips this evening. Here’s the first item: a short video clip of Joseph taking a bath, with his big sister lending a hand.
Transition
Joseph spent his first night in his own bed Saturday night. Perhaps not coincidentally, he also slept (nearly) through the night for the first time, only waking up to nurse once, around 5:00. Even Julia dealt with the situation well, voicing nary a complaint about her new roommate.
All in all, it looks like the change was harder on Julie than anyone else. On the plus side, however, she’s getting her nightstand back, not to mention the freedom to roll over in bed.
August Pictures: Birthday Presents & Tummy Time
Here you can finally find our most recent batch of pictures, covering most of August, including Julia’s birthday. As you can tell, Julia remains a shy, retiring young lady who is ever-modest in front of the camera. We’re not sure about Joseph yet, because his sister won’t actually let him into the frame.
Hats!
Here’s a quick video of Julia experimenting with different headgear. It was shot using our still camera, so the quality isn’t great, but the general idea comes across.
The video is about 38 seconds long and 12 MB in size, so it might take a while to download.
Welcome to the new site!
Hi! If you’re reading this, you’re probably wondering what it’s all about. The short version is that it was getting to be a bit of a pain maintaining separate sites for Joseph and Julia, and putting everything on Joseph’s page felt a bit like cheating, considering Julia’s love affair with the camera. Hence, the new, unified site to cover both kids.
We’re still going to maintain separate pages with vital information about Joseph and Julia, but this is the place to look for the latest photos, movies and news.
Let us know if you run into any problems—this is very much a work in progress.
