We measured Joey yesterday, on his 5th month birthday, and he's now 25 1/8 inches long! He rolled over from his back to his tummy yesterday for the first time also!

Sucking Toes and Asheville

Whew! Have we been busy! Before we left for Asheville, Joey had started sucking his toes and I finally got a couple pictures of that.



And he started rolling over from tummy to back (for the video, see my earlier update).



And we had tons of exhausting fun in Asheville.

Joey got to see his cousin Paige again, and got to meet his other cousin, Akira for the first time.








All in one day we visited Aunt Faye, Jenny/Deja/Kiara, and Charity/Eric. And Earl went shooting with Arron.



Then we discovered, for the 3rd year in a row, Angie can't spell once you put a cake in front of her:





Earl and Paige conspired against the rest of the family.


Joey opened presents and loved it!




Then we got home and opened more presents on Christmas morning:









Hope everyone had as wonderful a Christmas as we did!
