Josie at almost 15 weeks

I was looking through my phone pictures of Josie and wanted to share them with you all. They span mostly through the month of October.



Chubby little Jos!



Ever since Josie was just days old, she has loved looking at the pictures of my grandparents' bamboo on our wall. She is totally obsessed with it! This is her sitting on our couch looking up at them.



There's her smile!



This is us waiting at the bus stop. Two or three times a week, Josie and I take the bus to USU to go visit Jake. I put her in my baby wrap, walk to the bus stop, take the bus to the transit center, then take another bus to campus. She always loves the bus. She has never ever cried. I dare say it's her favorite thing to do. I enjoy the bus too; somebody interesting always ends up talking to us.



Her "I just pooped my pants" face.



A few weeks ago, Josie started going crazy kicking her legs like crazy. This day in particular she kept lifting one leg up and holding it there, like a dog!



"Ooo oo ooo! Pick me, I know the answer!"



We've wanted a baby swing for her since she was born, and finally decided it was worth the investment. As you can see, she loves it!



Okay, this is one of my favorite pictures. This is Josie with her cousin, Jack (age 4). We spent the weekend with my family, and Jack and Josie totally bonded. Jack is adorable with little babies. He kept coming up to me and asking to hold her, asking how she was doing, and in this picture, he was talking to her in the car. She absolutely adores him. That weekend, Jack got Josie to start laughing hysterically, the first and ONLY time this has happened! Jake and I have tried replicating what Jack did to make her crack up, but it doesn't work. Too cute.



Josie has gotten pretty good at her hand motor skills. I was feeding her a bottle, and looked down to see she was holding it herself. So I let go and she fed herself for a good 2 or 3 minutes without letting go!



I know it seems like all of her pictures are taken in this blue chair... she doesn't spend all of her time in that chair, she just takes the best pictures in it! This is her toy, Mr. Froggy. It's her favorite toy. If I give it to her I can usually get the dishes done or the laundry put away and she'll keep herself happy.
