MIles' baby



Miles has a baby and he loves it so much, he does everything he sees us doing with Lucy to his baby. He kisses it and pats it on the back and hugs it, he pretends to change it's diaper and he uses his little blanket to cover it up for sleep time. He is very sweet to his baby
Outnumbered!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! On Thursday I was very outnumbered by little people,Aliyah comes to spend Thursday afternoons with us while her mommy is teaching, and this week Camera came to spend Thursday with us also because her mommy went back to law school this week. So with my two that makes four little ones and just one of me. CRAZY!!!!






Aunt Micah came up for a visit last week, we got to meet her boyfriend kyle. She brought Miles thee cutest presents! One is a train whistle, which Miles loves to use. The other is a fish tank inside a TV box, its very cute, we will soon have a pet fish. It was very fun to spend some time with Micah and Kyle and I'm glad they got to meet Lucy.

Lucy, Izzy, and Miles all playing together.

Izzy and Lucy sleep in the same crib now, it is really cute! Hard to capture but very cute!





So, for the last few weeks we have been taking care of Izzy, my best friends little girl on the weekends. I'm not sure why but Stephan has been joking with Alicia (Izzy's mommy) whenever she calls to check on Izzy that Izzy has grown a mustache. So this phone conversation has occurred every weekend for the past three weeks. Then it occurred to me that I had leftover adhesive mustaches from Miles' western birthday party, so of course we had to. The first picture is Izzy's mustache, then we didn't want to leave Lucy out and since she already has very expressive eyebrows we decided to help them out. We tried to get Miles and Aliyah involved but they did not think it was so fun, they liked the babies with the extra facial hair but they thought it was not as cool on themselves.



This weekend we went walking along the goat trail, we love exploring in the woods. Don't worry we prayed against those darn Lyme's!!!! Miles loves throwing rocks into the water with his dad. It was a beautiful day!

Miles got to take some of his friends to his favorite park today and show them the train. They were so sweet waiting by the fence for it. Then on the way home Miles and his friend Aliyah held hands.

The other day I was putting together a shelf and Miles helped. He ran over to get his tool box and started to drill the box. He helped the whole time and was very proud of our finished product.
Headed out to the park, they are so cute!!!!

Izzy came over for the weekend and we kept her while her mommy went to work. Izzy and Lucy are very sweet together, they try to hold hands and smile at each other. It will be so fun to watch them grow up together.




Miles and his daddy went to the national building museum http://www.nbm.org/ this weekend where he got to pretend to be a construction worker and build with big blocks. They had lots of fun.



Every time we vacuum, Miles runs to get his vacuum. It is so cute how he mimics us, it makes us strive harder to be more like Jesus.




Playtime! Miles loves building, here is is building with his magnetic blocks. Then we had some fun with alphabet stickers, spelling words on his shirt.





Photo Opportunity!!

Miles has discovered he loves trains. He says choo-choo all day long. He loves to see the train that goes through the park and he waves at all the people. We went to the library to get some books on trains and he loves them. He carriers them around and asks us to read them to him multiple times a day. It is so fun to watch him develop this interest!

Camera came over to play today. She is sooooo cute! It's really fun to compare their features and find that they have similarities. Lucy smiles at Camera when she is near. It was good to see Aunt Ashley, she is doing great and looks fantastic. They were here when Miles went down for a nap and when he woke up he ran out looking for them.
The camera has become Miles new thing. He loves to hold it out and take pictures.



My first ice cream cone. Miles had his first ice cream cone this week. He thought it was great!
They are so beautiful!!

Izzy, Lucy, and Camera, They just wanted to give Camera a head nibble to make sure she knows she is the youngest.
