Miles' Preschool Graduation

Miles absolutely loved going to preschool this year.  He learned so much.  The graduation was awesome.  They sang songs about what they learned and danced too.  They made shirts with handprints of all of the "friends" in their class.  It was so cute to see Miles a little embarassed and singing all of the fun songs.  I even tried out the video part of our new digital camera. Daddy was able to get away from work for awhile to see the graduation and even made a sign for Miles to see when we got home.    I can't believe Miles will be in kindergarten next year.  Wow, the time goes by so fast.  We love you Miles and are so proud of you!  

Summer Jammies

        


It's been so hot lately that we had to put away the winter jammies and get out the summer ones.  I found these summer NBA jammies at Ross and knew the boys would just love them. (it's really nice that they think the NBA logo is Michael Jordan) My crazy basketball boys!

Porter's smiles!

We finally had to break down and buy a new digital camera.  Our 5 year old Sony Cybershot gave up.  Wow, I can't believe how much better digital cameras are now!  So these are the first photos I've been able to get of Porter in a few weeks.  (so sorry Grandpas and Grandmas)

Porter is nicknamed "Portly" for a reason.  He is a rather healthy kid.  He loves to eat. I got these smiles when I went in his room to feed him after his nap.  I asked him if he was ready to eat!  The other shot is right after eating!  Most of his smiles revolve around food!  He does belong to our family! :)

Why pay for toys?

Why do kids absolutely love to play with anything that isn't really a toy?  Babies love keys and cell phones,etc...well, we bought a new stroller to seat 2 kiddos, and the box has been a big hit for the boys.  They have turned it into a slide in the living room, colored on it, and snuggled in it like a sleeping bag to watch a movie.  Ahhh to be a kid again!

Porter's 2 month pictures

Wow!  I can't believe Porter is already 2 months old.  I never expect much going to the studio this early to get photos taken but Porter cracked that adorable smile on the very first shot!!  Porter is giving us some really fun smiles now...Miles tells everyone who comes to the house that "Porter smiles for real now".  Porter is about 13 pounds and very long for his age.  He still has lots of really dark hair but the back is rubbed completely off.  He loves to cuddle and lay on his activity mat.  He HATES the carseat and being messed with (his shots were fine as soon as the nurse let go of his leg).  His nicknames right now are Portly and PT.  We love you so much Porter!  

SMILES!!!

I hardly ever get smiles of all the boys at one time...well okay I am missing one boy in this shot but the 3 older ones are actually smiling!  yeah.  I probably said something like "stinky" to them to get them to smile.  That always works! 

My KeeKee!

Quincy has been having a hard time adjusting to having less attention with a new baby in the house.  I took these photos one morning while Miles was at pre school and Porter was napping.  He sure loves the attention.  If I have ever taken pictures of him that show his personality, these are them!!  (a whole lot of fun, gorgeous smiles, and a little bit of stinker)

(KeeKee is what Quincy calls himself because he can't say Quincy...the nickname has kind of stuck)

I love you Bubba!
