July ... Already?!

Can you believe it's already mid-July?! Well, I can't. Only 2 months left before Baby Bichel the Second arrives... and it's driving me crazy not knowing if we'll have a boy or a girl! Any guesses? You have a 50% chance of being right...

Joshua is a full-fledged toddler now. It's kinda like it happened overnight. Like he woke up one day and decided he wasn't a baby anymore. I know this is supposed to happen - we want our children to grow, learn, mature - but it doesn't make it easy! Already our snuggle times are getting few and far-between. He's good buddies with "Dad-Tee"... it's funny how young boys start to emulate their fathers. I was surprised at how quickly he's picked up to the fact that he is a boy like his Daddy, and needs to learn everything he can about being a boy.

Curtis and I have been enjoying the time we have this summer before the new baby. We have 2 wedding trips in the next month - Curtis is best man in one of the weddings and a groomsman in the other. Joshua will stay with Grandparents while we travel those weekends... so we'll treasure the time together.
