The Little Guy's Room
I know it's a bit late, but I thought I'd post pictures of Miles' room. We wanted something bright and cheery, but also very much a boy's room. And here it is, folks.
The crib with all the Ugly Dolls Miles has acquired so far.
Each month we add one Ugly Doll to his collection.
My brother was rocked to sleep in the chair when he was a baby.
The Little Man gets many many hugs a day, so I think we're good. :)
Just a few of the Ugly's.
To the left, hang his hats on some hooks we found at Hobby Lobby.
During his first few months, Miles really enjoyed being on his changing pad.
He still enjoys his numbers. Looks like he may be a math guy.
A friend made this for him. Such a sweet memory collage.
Just some prints we liked.
Eventually, his books will go between these cute little dog bookends. Right now, they are being kept up high where he can't destroy them.
We like how it turned out. And so does Miles. :)

Four Years
May 3rd was our four year anniversary.
We decided to celebrate by hitting up a Branson tourist stop...the Hollywood Wax Museum.
Also attached to this attraction is a maze of mirrors and a mini golf course.
We started with the golf.
Little Man helping Dad.
They had little golf clubs for the kiddos.
Having a little fun.
The end.
Dustin won the game, but Miles came close. :)
Next we checked out the wax museum.
It was actually pretty well done. Here are a few shots.
Harrison Ford as Indiana Jones
Miles and Jeannie
Nicolas Cage
It was actually kinda creepy at times with all of these people staring at you.
Little Man playing in "space." Maybe an astronaut someday?
Finally, we made our way slowly and rather clumsily through the maze of mirrors.
Who's that handsome boy in the mirror?
Attempting a family pic in the mirrors.
Whoa! Why we do look so goofy?
We finished our night with dinner at Olive Garden.
No pics of that unfortunately. But it was a good meal and a great ending to a fun day.
It's been a good four years.

we like hiking
On Sunday we went hiking with some friends.
It was a great time, despite the extreme heat.
Somehow, I only managed to get pics of these two guys. :)

New Tricks
I turned eight months old on Monday. To celebrate, Mom and I went to Walmart and I rode in the shopping cart for the first time. At first I wasn't really sure about it. But after a few minutes, I decided that I liked it.
Look what else I'm doing now that I'm eight months old!

hiking with the new backpack
The days lately have been so nice around here.
We've had some temps in the 80's even.
Crazy for this time of year! I think we just skipped over spring weather.
Maybe we'll still get it.
The other day, we decided to take advantage of the beautiful sunny weather and explore a new trail we discovered recently. It's pretty much down the street from our house and quite convenient. The whole trail is about 4 miles or so. We just walked about three quarters of a mile in and then the same back out. Someday, when we have more time, we'll do the whole thing.
It was Diesel's first time hiking in a trail like that. She LOVED it!!
But it wore her completely out. She just slept the rest of the day.
Apparently, it also wore the little man out.
Whew!! It's exhausting sitting in this new comfy backpack, checkin' out nature and chilling with my Dad!!

seven months
It was definitely an adventure getting our seven month picture this week.
We tried for quite some time to get him to smile AND look at the camera AND leave the cupcakes alone AND ignore the ugly dolls. It was fun!
After trying for two days, we finally settled on this one. He's smiling and sort of looking the way of the camera. :)
Here are some outtakes.
We tried for awhile to get a good pic and then decided to take a break and try later.
He started get smiley after we changed him into his PJs so Dustin attempted some more pics. Too bad we didn't have the cupcakes! :)
Then the next day we tried again.
