Pictures, pictures, and more PICTURES!

These are just a bunch I've had lying around.


From Milo's blessing day.  He's so cute and little!



Rocking a football helmet at Tai Pan



You know, just chillin in the sink at Grandma's house.  Isn't that what all the cool kids do?



Now he's rocking the pink princess bib.  He's comfortable in his manliness.



Milo and I taking pictures of ourselves.



He stole Daddy's camelback water bottle.  To this day, he can't drink out of a normal sippy cup without help, but a camelback is no problemo.  Weirdo.  =)



Taking awesome pictures of himself while trying to steal Mommy's phone!



Look Mom!  I found the toilet paper!



Ice Skating at the Gallivan Center over Christmas.  It was a blast!



Opening his Christmas Eve present.  Guess what!  He got jammies!  Shocker, I know.



Bath time!


Picture of a picture from Alan and Andrea's wedding.  I forgot how totally chubby he was until I saw this!



More bath time, but this time, with BUBBLE BATH!  He loves it!

Fall!!

I love this time of year.  I really do.  I must admit, I was so excited for the snow we just had, and I was totally bummed that it melted so fast.  Anyhoo, it's due time for an update.  I've been a slacker.  =)

Milo is on the GO!  That boy does not stay still.  Ever.  He crawls everywhere, pulls up on everything.  He just today discovered the kitchen cabinets, so I guess it's time to put away the cleaning supplies.  I've been holding off on it because he never opened any of the doors, and we can't baby proof them since they really aren't ours.  I guess we'll have to keep everything dangerous above Milo height!  We've been giving Milo more and more real food, and he's getting rather independent about the whole thing.  He really prefers to feed himself, and he likes to eat whatever anyone else is eating.  Milo is also starting to get more teeth, so he's back to chewing on everything and anything he can get his hands on.  He's getting really good at holding on with one hand and doing other things with the other.  I don't think it will be very long before he starts standing on his own.  And then we all know what happens next!

Now Cory and I may or may not actually have lives of our own.  Cory has been working hard at school, and he's going to graduate in April.  YAY!!  We're super excited.  I'm still trying to balance work and mommy-hood.  It's harder than one might think.  I am SERIOUSLY excited for Christmas.  I can't even handle it.  I'm starting to have strong desires to buy the entire toy aisle at Costco.  

Next time, I'll have more recent pictures, but here are some from a while back.  It was obviously summer time, since Milo is just in his onesies:

This is the first time Milo really crawled.


We found Milo all wrapped up in his blanket, so I grabbed the camera to take a picture.


Then he saw the wrist strap thingy hanging, and I guess he really wanted it!


Closer......closer.....


TA-DA!  Here I am!!


And this is when Milo started pulling himself up on things.

Camping Trip

Here are some pictures from our camping trip!




It was a blast!!  We went on an awesome hike, got to have dutch oven dinner, and spend time just hanging out.  I can't wait for the next one!

Six Months Old!

Milo is six months old!  Crazy how time flies!  Last week, we all went to the rodeo.  Milo was pretty skeptical of the whole thing to start out, but he loved watching the horses and the motorcycles they had at the half time show.


Papa, Grandma Yvonne, Milo, and Grandma.  Milo had a whole little cowboy outfit complete with jeans, jean jacket and plaid shirt.  It was so cute!


 Milo and his Daddy!

So here is the six month update:

Weight: 17lbs 6oz (45%)
Height: 26.42 inches (45%)
Head: 17.2 inches (42%)

We get to start letting him try more solid foods, like teething biscuits or graham crackers.  That is going to be super funny to watch, I'm sure.  We'll see how he likes it!

Long Overdue Picture Update


Real food is a total success.  He liked squash so much he wanted to lick the bowl!


Playdate with Maddie.  They were so funny together!


Look!  It's a person my size!


I just thought his little footprint was cute.  We like to stand on our balcony and watch the cars go by.  Milo loves them!


This is when he started to move around.  He started on his back under that gym!


And then he rolled across the room!


And then he's just cute.  =)


Then he learned how to turn in circles too.


Daddy gave him a taste of his first popsicle.  He thought it was really really yummy.  =)

More pictures


For Cory's birthday, I had Milo give his Dad a birthday card, signed with little red paint handprints.  Since red paint doesn't really work with baby clothes, he got to try on one of Mommy's shirts!  It was hilarious!


Handsome like Daddy!


Chatting away!


Milo aka Shamu.  He's ready for Sea World!


Hanging out with Dad.


We still have to swaddle him at night or he won't sleep, but I found him like this the other morning!  Silly bean!

First Rice Cereal!


Trying out the highchair for the first time!


Hmmm....this is new!


Yum!


Messy messy!


That's enough Dad!  Too much!  Too much!
