Joshua has been sick for over a week now. He has a really nasty cold and cough, so we've stayed in as much as possible. (This is why there wasn't a Thrifty Thursday last week or today.) And, since his last name is Layne,

cold/cough = breathing treatments

So, this is what my sweet baby was doing on his 7 month birthday. :(

He's been very happy during this sickness though. He still plays and plays all day long. Most who know him say he's the happiest baby they've ever met. Here is a short video of Joshua learning to clap his hands. So stinkin' cute!! I could just eat him up!!

Please excuse the voice in the background. I never knew how crazy I sound

when I'm playing with him!!
