Cherios!

Mommy had a bit too much playing with Nakiah!!

I stuck Cherios all over her face and she didn't touch one of them. I started laughing and she just looked at me with a very serious "whats so funny" stare and I could not stop laughing. Kids really are the best toys!! :)

She may come to despise this sort of "play time" one day so I figure, enjoy it while it lasts.

Camping Chair...CHECK!

In preparation of Nakiah's first semi-camping trip, ( I say semi because we'll be in pretty nice - furnished - cabins on the river ), my mom got Nakiah her first camping chair. Its the cutest chair I've seen for little ones. It even has a velcro pouch on the back and little "backpack" straps so when she gets bigger, she can carry her own chair.

Already kickin' back I look at this picture and can't believe how big she is and how fast she's growing up. Practicing for 'smores

Father's Day BBQ

We had a BBQ at our house for father's day.

It was either really borring, or really good...

Is it just me, or does it seem like Michael is asleep in a lot of his pictures?

If pictures had volume, this would be the best picture EVER!! Doesn't even get to use his Father's Day chair on Father's Day Danielle was a trooper.... Almost! :)

For Daddy

Nakiah picked out a new chair for daddy for his first Father's Day

She had to test it out first Perfect Fit!! She likes to cuddle with her daddy!

Happy Father's Day Daddy!!

WE LOVE YOU!

9 Months Old and SOOO Much Fun!!

Aaawwww.... ;)

Tight squeeze Bathtub become playtub Racin' with Auntie Fave

Oh the sugary goodness.... Watching Rudy WOOOOOO! Michael loves to snuggle with his babes!

Bath Time With Daddy.....

One night, while daddy was playing with Nakiah during bath time and mommy was cleaning the kitchen, daddy called mommy to come look.....

This is what mommy found

While it may be possible that she accidentally did this to herself....

I'm pretty sure this was the act of her father I think she's the best toy daddy's ever had :) She didn't seem to mind though, she left them on her head until I had to wash her hair

Jamie & Taelin

Nakiah, my mom and I stopped in to see Jamie and Taelin on Mother's Day. I can not believe how big Taelin is. He just keeps getting cuter and cuter. I loved kissing those cheeks. Its going to be so much fun watching him and Nakiah play together. I just wish they didn't live so far away.

We miss you guys!

We're working on playing hard to get....or at least not giving it up so quick!

As you can see, my precious girl makes the first move, she couldn't get enough kisses...

A little upset that Taelin wasn't feeling it.... He's just happy he can breath again! Uh, she's touching me..... Seriously....HELP.

Big Project

I'd like to say that Corey and I are adding a new deck to the house, but really its more like Corey, Dennis and Jerry are adding a new deck to the house. They do the work, I'm project manager. So mostly I ask a lot of questions and irritate my husband, but not on purpose. ;)

A view from the south end of the deck, looking at our neighbor's yard

Getting close to being done.... from the north end of the deck, looking at our tees and our neighbor's trees Don't you wish your husband was hot like mine?!? The view from our deck, well the middle of it any way.

When its done, we'll have such a beautiful view of the river!
