Cute Pic

This might be the only good picture I have of me and Miles. Miles is squinting but it almost looks like a smile. Good enough for me :)

Miles' Hair

Miles' hair goes from this........

The Big 2

Today was Miles' 2nd Birthday! Miles woke up to find that he now the proud owner of a fancy black truck.
He was pretty excited about his truck which was good considering his party was going to be very tame due to my bed rest and his recent exposure (by exposure I mean repeatedly eating food out of his friend's mouth while she was contagious) to Fifth Disease. It sounds really bad but it is really just a childhood virus that has few symptoms while contagious, and a horrible rash after it is no longer contagious. The only real concern is for women who are pregnant, like me. I have to do some extra blood work on Monday to see if I am already immune. Because of this we decided to uninvite the 2 kids who were coming just to be on the safe side.


Luckily Miles still had a great time eating a birthday breakfast with his GG, GMa, Grandma, and Grandpa.
If you ever want to make Miles really happy just bring him a balloon.

Miles' Grandma suggested that he climb out the back window....he liked that idea.

A little cake after waffles never hurt anybody.

Happy Birthday Bubsie!

Uh-oh

Easter Fun

We dyed eggs on Friday. Miles was able to tell us what color he wanted to dye each egg and we didn't have any big spills.....success!


As you can tell by his expression, Miles was in total shock that the Easter Bunny had come to our house.


Why is it that every kid gets the idea to dump out the basket and wear it as a hat?


Egg hunt #2 at church. Miles liked to open each egg as he found it...he also liked to throw the eggs like a ball.



Miles checking out all the cool gifts in his Easter basket from Grandma and Grandpa.


Egg hunt #3 (next year we will have to skip the one at home). Miles was concerned more with the quality of the contents and not just the quantity of eggs.

Here Miles is throwing all his eggs on the ground and encouraging Zephyr to do the same.

It was a really fun day filled with good food and good company :)

Fatherhood

As I was making dinner I looked outside to see Miles being pulled around the yard in laundry basket with a golf club and Terry dressed in his finest (yes he has on socks and flip flops) drinking a glass of wine. I love it!
