Old School

Mumma found a quick new way to kick it old school with this Polaroid effect. I honestly have no idea what a Polaroid is, but it must have been something Mumma found to be pretty sweet back in the day.

For Uncle Ben.....

Do you remember when Mumma had her first baby, she said that she would never use the TV as a babysitter, never let him eat McDonald's, and NEVER, EVER, EVER let her baby be seen in public with only a diaper on...??? Funny how things change, three kids later! Here you go Uncle Ben, documented proof of Mumma getting over her babies sitting around in just a diaper. However, in her defense, I really wasn't just hanging around the house in just a diaper all day, she just snapped a couple pictures after she changed me. :) (Oh, and I am not crawling just yet, but don't I look good pretending like I can crawl!?)

Rock Star

I just LOVE to dance and listen to music, and now I can make my own. You should see me rock out on my piano. The Itsy Bitsy Spider, ABC's, Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, you name it, I can crank it out. Oh, and for my encore........patticake!!!!

YMCA Healthy Kids Tot Run

Finally....an update for the middle child! While Myles was at his tball game, Mumma took me and Ian to the Heathly Kids run. My very first race was SO much fun. The weather was prefect; I wasn't too sure about running all by myself in the beginning but by the finish line I got the hang of it and was ready to have some fun on the other activities at the event.

Gotta stretch and warm up those muscles....

The YMCA race would not be complete without you guessed it, dancing to the "YMCA"

My friend Johnny and I

The best part of the race......the inflatable obstacle course!!!

Mumma's First Race

My Mumma has been working so hard this year training for her 10K (6.2 miles) race in June. She ran her first 5K on Mother's Day morning, along with 2,000 other people and another 3,331 in the half marathon and marathon at the Borgess Run for the Health of It. I was sad that I couldn't be at the finish line to see her, but getting up at 5:45 AM really didn't sound all that good to me. Here she is and she managed to get a couple of pictures along the way (thus the camera blur). She finished her first race in 32.13 minutes. She finished 521 out of 1,191 women runners and 70 out of 161 people in her age group. Not too bad considering that only 3 months ago she couldn't even run 60 seconds.

Pre race

Can you see all of the runners in the 5K? Mumma was mid-pack here.

Happy Mother's Day

Popsicle

You can definitely tell I'm the third kid all right, you know darn well, the first baby didn't get spoiled like this.... Daddy gave me a lick or two of his popsicle, and well, you can see exactly how I liked it. :) (Actually, I really did like it, it just took a few more licks to figure that out.)

Tractor Ride, Take Three

We sure do start young, don't we???

Float Like A Butterfly, Swim Like A Fish

I absolutely LOVE to swim! Actually if you ask me, I'm even better than my big scaredy-cat (eh hem...I mean analytical) brother Myles. The teacher tells me to jump in, and bam! I just jump right in. The teacher tells me to stick my face in the water and blow bubbles....yes ma'am. I think this swimming class might put Daddy (aka Mr. Safety) over the edge since I am such a daredevil, and he's you know, Mr. Safety. :)

Oh, and here's a couple pictures of my "analytical" brother (who STILL won't jump in) at his swimming lessons....

Ian - 9 Months

Can you believe that my Mother is actually less than two weeks late in updating you on my nine month stats!? ...recordbreaking!!! Well really I need to cut her some slack as my well baby check up was just last Monday. :) I am starting to level out on my weight - 19.4 pounds (50th percentile) and height was 27" (also 50th percentile). Overall, I am a healthy (and somewhat) happy-go-lucky infant. My doctor put on this disgusting dissolvable pill called Prevacid to see if it helps my spitting up and fussiness. Mumma says she would rather give a cat a pill than give me a pill, and believe me, the feeling is 100% mutual!!! I still just sit around where ever Mumma puts me, but sometime very soon I think I will give this crawling thing a go.

A Good Day to be Superheroes

The sun was shining, the air was well, pretty warm, and we decided it was a good day to be superheroes!
