Da Beard

Joshua has decided to go with the beard look. It's a little patchy but where it is coming in, it's filling in quite nicely. Having the hair grow up the side of his face might be an issue but it does give him kind of a Wolverine look though.

We have our next appointment scheduled for October 15th out at UCSF and are interested to see what they have to say about doing an MRI. He was born with 7 satellites on his legs, back, and head and we have now crossed the 20 satellite risk threshold with about 33 and counting. It does seem like he gets another one about every couple of days and it's possible that he could have hundreds of satellites in the next few months. 

At 3 months old, his personality is really starting to come out and he is really trying to catch up to our other kids. He loves his "bouncy seat" and is already pretty mobile, scootching across rooms at the speed of a fairly fast turtle. He is an amazing sleeper too. He goes down at about 6:00 or 7:00 and sleeps until about 6:00 or 7:00 with one or two feedings during the night. And he can sleep through anything! We can have all of our kids in our room, jumping on the bed, screaming and laughing, and he doesn't even hardly stir. 

It is so much fun to watch our children grow through the different stages. And to get to do it again for the ninth time is a huge blessing.
