A Life Update ...

So Milo is now 5 months old!!! Time is just flying by with him. He's teething, and not just getting his front teeth but his MOLARS!! I could not believe it. What a crazy kid. :) Guess that just means he wants steak for his first birthday. haha

So some big news for our family... Milo had his first MRI - or at least we tried to get him his first MRI. He apparently has the adverse reaction to sleepy drugs; they were going to put him a "twilight" like sleep, but the more drugs they gave him, the more energetic and mad he got. I felt horrible!!!! By the time they came back with him, he had big, red, blood shot eyes and was screaming & squirming like mad!!! So we go back in a few weeks for another try, but this time they are going to put him COMPLETELY under. I'm real nervous about that, but know that he is in God's hands and that God can take care of him better then I can. So we are trusting and praying. Oh the reason they are doing this is for what they call "nystagmus". His eyes 'dance' or 'shift' back and forth really fast. I've done some research on it, and they are many different severities of it, so the MRI and the eye appt. we have for him will all help determine what our next step will be.

Some happier and funnier (yes, funnier) news -- we leave tomorrow for his first big trip. Pretty excited, and little nervous. Milo, my parents, and I are all traveling to NJ to see my brother and his family. They still haven't met one another - and since he's growing up so fast it'll be nice for them to all meet before he gets too big. It's a long ride, but I think we'll do okay. He just may hate his car seat after we are all said and done... but it'll be worth it. I can't wait for him to meet his cousins!

And I just can't resist taking pics of him ... all. the. time. So here's a recent snapshot of him napping. So sweet and peaceful. We love you Milo!

Jordan John

Meet J.J.! This lil' guy is so full of life, energy, and smiles! Along with those stunning brown eyes, he has one awesome personality!!! It didn't take long for him to warm up to my camera, and once we got going, it was hard for me to stop!! He was such an easy kid to photograph. It was hard for me to narrow down which ones to put on the blog, but I suppose that's always a good problem to have. :)
Hoping I can take more of J.J. soon! He sure is a cutie!!









Miss Nadia

This is my wonderfully cute niece, Nadia. She too is now 4 months old! I can't believe how fast time has flown by for these kids!! She has such a cute smile and has quit the personality, along with some killer eyes!! I think Daddy may have a problem keeping the boys away!! :)
It's been such a blessing to have her near by and so close in age to our son. We love you Nadia! Happy 4 months!!

She found Daddy ... look at that grin!




Milo Man Update

Happy February Everyone! Hope everyone is staying warm and has survived the "Blizzard of 2011". :)
Milo is now 4 months old, and because I can, I took some 4 month pics of him!! You can never have too many photos of your kid!! :) Graduation will be so fun - we'll have plenty of pics to chose from for his open house.

I also took some very cute photos of my niece and a good family friend. I have devoted a new blog for each of them tho, cuz they are just so cute and I wanted to show pics for all of them!!

Enjoy! :)

Happy New Year!!!





I know I posted a pic of our Milo Man earlier, but here are a few more of his 3 month photos and of Christmas. I have so much fun with him every day. He has been such a wonderful blessing and a great joy for Tim and I. We throughly enjoyed our first Christmas as a family together and spent lots of time at home, smiling, laughing, and listening to the coos and gurgles of our son. Pure Bliss!

Well I hope and pray everyone has a great new year!! :)
