5 Things....

I saw this on my friends blog and thought it was a great idea. Every Friday I am going to post five things that happened that week that might not have made the blog as a post themselves but are things I want to remember. So here goes my first Friday Five...

1- Cody has been coming home for lunch lately and when he walked in one day Milo was so excited and surprised. He looked at Cody and said, "Whoooaaaaa!" In a very deep gravelly voice.

2- We had a naked rodeo.3- We finally got some trees in the back yard. So it should be really nice in about 10-15 years!

4- A pair of birds built a nest in my hanging basket.....I thought it would be fun to track their progress on my sidebar.

5-Milo is getting his two bottom molars. NOT FUN! He is the grumpiest teether ever.

ONE!

My baby turned one on the 19th. I can't believe how fast the last year has gone by! It has been so much fun and just keeps getting more and more fun.
For Milo's party we had planned on going to the park by our house but the weather didn't want to cooperate. Luckily the Jolley's were nice enough to let us use their home.

My sister, Amber, and I decided that we wanted to do something special for our babies birthdays so we made cakes. It was fun but ALOT of work.
I thought it turned out pretty good for my first one. I even made and frosted all the animals.

Milo was not very excited about the presents, he just wanted to play outside.
Once they were opened he liked them.

His favorite was this ball popper from his Great Grandma Bell.

Putting on a show for his guests, he is such a ham!

Milo was lucky to have so many of his great grandparents come.

Bud, Grandma Jean, Grandma Shirley and Grandma Bell.

The Zoo

New Addition

If you are unable to reach us this summer it is probably because we are in the mountains, in our new camper, escaping the heat. Don't worry, we'll be back in the fall.

1 Year Pictures

Milo had his picture taken today by one of my very best friends. She is absolutely amazing! We showed up to the shoot in a rain storm and then Milo turned cranky fairly quickly, but you would never know from the pictures. Seriously she is awesome.
Check her out here and book a session now!
Thanks Kenz we love them.

Milo Monster

Milo is now 11 months old and is officially walking. He started out slowly, walking around the furniture, a few timid steps here and there, then one day he just took off and never looked back! This is my favorite age and stage so far. The kid cracks me up. He has a sense of humor now and does the funniest stuff. He fake sneezes just to get an "Oh bless you." He has started blowing kisses, which melts my heart. He snaps his fingers and claps along to "If your happy and you know it." He has mastered the stairs, up and down. He says, "Ma", "Da", "Dog", "Baba" and "Go" as in it where did it go. Even Toby is starting to warm up to him. Milo takes Toby's ball and waddles away as fast as he can just giggling because he knows Toby will follow him. Toby doesn't even mind because its a form of fetch, I guess.
I love, love, love this baby!
