Happy Birthday

I am now the mother of a precious one year old. He is very close to walking and is starting to understand what we say. We had an exceptional weekend with friends and family. Thanks to everyone for making the time so special!

Not so sure what he has in front of him. There is more sugar in that cupcake than he has had in his entire life!

But it does taste good...

My mom made the bib, of course!

Lake Ouachita

We spent a few days on a houseboat on Lake Ouachita, Arkansas.

Finally, both boys happy and eating... a miracle!

He discovered the world of stairs.

Worn Out!

Vacation!

We just returned from a 10 day North Woods Vacation.  We flew into Marquette, Michigan.  We met my parents, my dad's sister and her family at their cabin on Big Shag Lake.  John's brother picked us up and drove us to Minocqua, Wisconsin to see his family on Lake Tomahawk.

Have you seen the pinata with the strings? Miles pulled the lucky string (with a little help from his Daddy).

Miles was obsessed with this moose.
