A Few Firsts for Joel

The baby Joel said his first word this evening.  His Grandma Lee Ann was headed out the door after a nice visit.  She waved and told him bye-bye.  And the baby Joel waved & said "buh buh" back!  It was tooooo cute!

Actually, that counts as 2 firsts. First word and first wave.  :)  He started clapping this past weekend, too.  And his Aunt Bekah and Ethan were here visiting to see it.

Andy really captured Joel's cuteness in this photo.

Thanks Andy!

I feel like the baby Joel isn't going to be my baby much longer!  He has 4 teeth, is walking all the time, tries to climb up into Levi's bed, and will have his first birthday in a little over a month.  He certainly made 2010 go by in a flash!
