swim time!

Here are some pictures from the last few weeks. Another summer of sun! So far, I'm a bit more apprehensive about the water this year than I was last year, but Mommy's enrolling me in parent/child swim lessons so I know I'll be a water baby again by the end of the summer!

I still love to "swing swing" Mommy and Daddy cannot wait until I can do it by myself, but right now they enjoy pushing me.


Max got his own swing too! He likes it.
Max LOVES Justice and Maverick. And they love him right back!
Here I am swinging with Granny!

So far this summer has been great!

First Trip to the Emergency Room!

We knew it was coming folks. After all, I am all boy. I tripped going up the stairs and busted my head open! We went to Texas Children's and after a long night, I have cool liquid stitches. Maybe I'll have a scar like Harry Potter!

East Texas Wedding

We all went to Mommy's law school classmate, Kristen's, wedding in East Texas. It was great because I got to spend the weekend at Mimi and Pepaw's house AND I got to eat cake at the wedding. Good times!

Here we are winning over the crowd.


Lets go dance!
Hamming it up on the dance floor.

I even got a dance with the beautiful bride!

I love weddings! ~Miles

My New Favorite Part of the House

Because I like to be outside SO much, Mommy and Daddy finally bit the bullet and covered our back patio. Mommy is really excited! I like it too. It makes my porch look so big. It's not quite done yet. They still need to put in the lighting and fan and paint, but I couldn't wait to show you pictures!

Visit to Mimi and Pepaw's

I went to visit Mimi and Pepaw this weekend while Mommy and Daddy went to Nashville for the Country Music Marathon. I had a great visit.

Here I am with all of my cousins. Can you believe we are ALL boys? I like it!

Mommy and Aunt Fallon finished the Half Marathon too!

Thanks for letting me stay with you this weekend Mimi and Pepaw. I had a blast!

5 Month Update

Okay, I've got on Daddy's shoes and Mommy's hat and I'm ready to go run errands. Before I head out, I wanted to give you an update on the lil' bro. Max is 5 months old and doing lots of fun stuff. He's rolling...scooting...and trying to sit up. This week he found his feet and really likes to eat them. He's very attached to Daddy and smiles pretty much every time he sees him. He loves bath time and hates nap time. Who can blame him? Here are some pictures....

Big Boy Bed

Times they are a changing folks. The days of being caged in my baby bed are OVER! That's right...tonight was night one in a toddler bed. Look at me..all grown up!

Easter 2009

Another Easter has come and gone. I had a lot of fun this year. First we had an egg hunt at our church. Then I went down to Victoria to Granny and Pop's house for Easter.

Here's Max and I with the Easter bunny. Hey, we're both looking at the camera and neither of us is screaming...mission accomplished.


Hunting eggs at the church egg hunt.

Hunting with Faith.


I really liked looking at the water from this big rock!


Then it was on to Granny and Pop's for the Easter egg hunt. We did a family lunch on Easter Sunday with a big crowd, but I was the only grandkid this trip so I had the whole yard to myself for hunting! I guess Max was there too, but he's not exactly mobile!

Pop getting down my Easter basket. The Easter bunny left them in the tree.


Looking for my treasures.
Sidewalk chalk!

More goodies.


I had a good time at Easter. ~Miles
