Happy Birthday Josh!!

Joshua is 7 years old today!! Can't believe it's already been 7 years since we brought our little boy home!

We've had a great day today. Josh chose crepes for breakfast, and we put cherry pie filling in them - yum!! Jared was home for the morning (because we were getting some gravel and a shed), so Josh was able to open presents this morning. That turned out to be a great thing, because he got to spend the day playing with all his new stuff. Surprisingly, I think his favorite gift was his Webkinz snake, which he named Stripers. We got to go out for lunch (Sonic), and we had his favorite food for dinner - SHRIMP!! Can you believe a kid his age loves shrimp??

Josh is such a great kid. He is a hard worker, a deep thinker, and very energetic. He has a great memory, and he loves to ask lots of questions. He can always make us laugh, and he is very helpful too.

Here's a look at then and now...


We love you Josh!! You are "totally wicked" and we're glad you're part of our family!

  1. YAY, Happy birthday Josh!!! It sounds like you had a lot of fun! I remember seeing him for the first time in the hospital. We were looking and saw a baby without a name yet. Jake said that's him, he looks just like a Ripplinger. I love his silly-human tricks and his socks are always amazing! You rock josh!
