miles' new trick


miles has three teeth. two on bottom, one on top

The other day miles decided it would be fun to make a mess with his milk. He would slurp it up the straw, but wouldn't swallow it. The front of his shirt was soaked. He had a wonderful time.

pretending to drink
smiling and laughing as it all gurgles out of his mouth


aaahhh

oh fun, fun!
if you look closely, he still has milk running down his chin. btw, this is his favorite toy. he will play with it forever.

working at grandmama and grandaddy's

Logan helped grandaddy spread mulch the other weekend. Lots of grunting was involved. She's a hard worker.
Miles supervised. Next year, he'll be put to work.
Logan wasn't too sure about the tractor ride. She was sure about her tootsie roll pop, though.

happy 1st birthday!


It's so hard to believe my sweet boy is a year old! This year flew by.... and I'm not just saying that; it really did!
miles is now:
-cruising all over the place
-bear crawling (legs straight)
-taking a few steps here and there. Yesterday, he took five!
-saying bye-bye, ma ma, da da, hey, 'uh' part of uh-oh
-pretty much eats what we eat
-almost finished with the bottle. he halfheartedly takes about 4 oz of diluted formula at night.
-into EVERYTHING
-constantly closing his fingers in drawers
-loves to be outside. he cries if you open the door and he doesn't get to go out.
-still taking two fairly big naps
-still battling an ear infection. we're on antibiotic #3 he hasn't felt too great recently... add to the ear infection, allergies. this pollen is awful!
-very loving. he will come over to me and lay his head against my legs/feet/lap for a quick love and then he's off again.
-he loves balls and will throw a ball and crawl to get it all over the house
-he also loves cars and will push a car/truck all over the house while crawling (he's done this for about two months)


Birthdays!

We celebrated Logan and Miles' birthdays together about a month ago. (I know it's taken me forever to post pictures!) Both sets of grandparents came. We took Logan to monkey joe's for a bit, then we came home for pizza, ice cream and presents. Logan and Miles had a great time. I can't believe they're one and three!



Logan's not so sure about this dress-up stuff, but I think she likes it!

Miles woke up from his nap and checked out his new car!

Logan ate her cake like a civilized person. She kept looking at Miles like he was crazy!








This is how miles ended up. He was a fan of cake.... it just took him a while to warm up to it.

We spent last week at my parents' house. Logan loves being able to go to lolly's preschool. She thinks it's great that she gets to go to two schools! While we were there, my mom tried to give logan some ponytails...
maybe next year, she'll have longer hair! We got a kick out of this. Logan thought it was great.

Trying to check out lolly's computer.

Playing 'together.'

february fun

Miles doing what he does best... he shamelessly destroys the train table in about 10 seconds.
Logan has lots of love for Thomas.

After her first night in her toddler bed. Don't you like her pjs? We are definitely in the "I pick it out myself" stage.
