Forgotten Pics

Going through our camera and found these pictures from Miles' first day school (Sept). He moved up to the 3's room (pre- Preschool) and we got him his own backpack and everything. He and Nadia are still in the same class, which is good, since they are attached at the hip!

Pictures from the weekend

Here are some pics from this past weekend...

Apple Picking

We went apple picking this past weekend with Josh, Julia, and Tessa at Lyman Orchards. It is a great set-up there, and the kids had fun picking and then running through the corn maze! We may do it again, when the weather feels more like fall (it was about 78 degrees).

Beach Pictures

So we went to the beach again this summer for a week and had a blast! After 3 days of cloudy, rainy days, we ended the week nicely with some sun and warm weather.

Can't wait to do it again next year!

Miles' 3rd Birthday

It boggles our minds that the newborn baby we brought home from the hospital is now 3. Where has the time gone. In just three short years Miles has become a wonderful boy that is looked up to by his peers and the adults around him. He is sweet-natured, yet fiercely persistent; incredibly independent, yet loving and cuddly. He lets us know he loves us every day, and we hope that he knows how much we love him and so much more. We cannot imagine what any one of these last 1095 days would have been like without Miles in it, and will cherish every memory as the years continue to fly by quicker than we would like. We look forward to seeing the person he will become in the future- we hope the world is ready!

Here are the pictures from Miles' Yellow/Cinderella Birthday weekend/party (if you have trouble with the slide show you can see them in the web album here)

We have been lacking in the blog world- so here are a few pics from last month. And yes, we did back-date this post...

Our Disney Vacation

We went to Disney for a week with Nanna, Papa, and Auntie Kiera. We decided to forgo the Disney resort and opted for renting a house near Disney. It was a good move- it was less expensive, more private, we had our own pool and kitchen for cooking some meals, and on top of that the house was gorgeous! Miles' favorite things were "It's a Small World"- we went on it five times, Dumbo, seeing the castle and Cinderella (whom he is SO in love with- every blonde we saw was "Cinderelly"), meeting all the characters, especially Mickey, seeing Mickey and Minnie's houses, the roller coaster ride, learning how to swim in the pool ALL BY HIMSELF, and the Hoop Dee Doo Revue. Miles loved every minute of it, and it was incredibly special for the rest of us to see the magic of Disney through his eyes. We all can't wait to go back!
