All about Josh - AKA Mosh

Saturday, June 30, 2007

Finally post this... it has been on my pc for ages now!

Last night Kel got up to feed Sam at about 3am. He called me to come and have a look at Josh, who was asleep in the chair in the kitchen. He was even wearing his slippers! I don't know how that happened... maybe he sleep walks!

His new favourite song is the Dingle Dangle Scarecrow. And the CDs that Aunty Anna and Uncle Ben got him for his birthday are getting a good workout. Well to be specific, the green CD, songs 9, 10 and 13 (Daddy's taking us to the zoo tomorrow, Animal Fair and How much is that doggy in the window (sung to Eddie who just happens to be sitting in the window!))

We heard about the recall on some of the Thomas train set. After going through the recall notice, and searching through his room we found 13 things that we need to send back. Lights and Sounds James will be dearly missed. There was also a red caboose, the fire trucks and a whole heap of stop and caution signs. Apparantly they will replace the item, and send a new vehicle to compensate for the postage.

Josh had to go back to the paediatric surgeon last week. We had noticed that his left testicle was very swollen. It turns out that he has another hernia. He will have to have another operation (probably around August) to fix it. He had the right one done when he was eight months old. He was pretty good with it last time, the worst part was sitting with him in recovery while he just screamed and screamed. I can only imagine how much worse it will be with a three and a half year old.

On the weekend, Josh rode the tricycle and Grandma and Grandpa's house using the pedals! Very proud mummy there! He just needs a little push start.

We went to Werribee yesterday to see the steam train. It was the 150th anniversary of the Melbourne to Geelong line. I think I am becoming a bit of a train spotter. I think I was more excited about the train than Josh was! And actually he got scared of it. It was a bit big and noisy for his liking. He ran away from the train. We got video of it. Its pretty funny. And since then Josh is more interested in the electric trains.
