Sixteen Months Already....

Happy Fourth of July and Happy 16-month birthday, Joel! This is the first month that we have not taken Joel's "bear" picture". :0( It was becoming too difficult and he was not at all cooperative, so the 15-month shot will be the last one. Little boy had a big weekend! On Friday night we took my dad to the Mud Hens game and stayed for the fireworks, and last night we had a 4th party and saw the fireworks in Defiance. He seemed to like the fireworks this year as opposed to last year. He didn't really smile, but he watched very intently and giggled a little bit. He was really good considering how late he was up both nights. He slept pretty well during both nights, and is napping right now. He needs to get up soon or he'll be up until midnight again tonight! I'll be posting pictures of the ballgame and the party later. More soon.....
