Just a Few Pics

Things have been super busy around here, but here are a few pictures of us recently. Here is me, Mya, and cousin Camdyn at cousin Silas' birthday party. Silas turned one in August and we were so glad we got to be there to help him celebrate. Camdyn loves helping with Mya, which is so sweet!


Here is the birthday boy and his adorable mommy! He is such a fun one year old!Here's my big girl in her cute little shoes. They are going to be too small for her soon and she hasn't hardly worn them, so I have to try to get her to wear them as much as I can! Thankfully she puts up with me.
How can you not love that face? I love everything about this little person! She is such a blessing!

Especially when she looks like this! This is actually a normal face for her when she wakes up, but the hair... that is not normal. It was sticking up everywhere!
Can you believe our little baby is nine months old already? She had her well baby check up and is healthy, growing good, and obviously loving life. She's got four teeth now(and always working on more), stands by herself, walks around by holding onto things, loves bobbing back and forth to music, loves tilting her head to the side, loves crawling after her daddy, loves taking baths, and loves smiling! Dan and I are doing well too. Dan is substitute teaching and has had jobs everyday since school started. Mya is going to a babysitter that we absolutely love and who lives just minutes away from my work so I can visit during lunch if I want. And I am really enjoying my work as I continue to get the hang of it. We are getting ready to celebrate my 26th birthday next week and I am so excited. I love birthdays! I'm going to see how long I can make my birthday last this year. Who thinks I can make it last all week? Wish me luck!

Gotta love summer time!

We have been swimming! Mya loves to swim, so we have been over at Dan's aunt's house taking advantage of her beautiful pool! I didn't get any pictures of Mya in the pool, but here is one before we went. She has such a cute beach body!
Mya really likes to play in her room so whenever I need to get some stuff done upstairs, she gets to play in her room. This day I wanted to see how she would like sitting in her rocking chair, which actually used to be mine when I was little. Of course, she loved it! She was even trying to rock it herself!
Dan took this picture last week! Isn't it just the cutest? She loves to pull herself up on the window and stand there and play! She thinks she's so big.
I just love these next two pictures! Mya pulls out her cheesy smile whenever she's super happy, which she obviously is here!
And here's Mya and Daddy eating Mya's favorite food... cheerios! I wish you could see all of the dress she's wearing. It's such a cute dress that Aunt Sarah got for Mya. And cousin Camdyn has a matching one. I'll have to take a picture of them wearing it at the same time.
So we have really just been enjoying the warm weather, swimming, grilling, hanging out with family, and spending time with friends. Hope everyone else is enjoying their summer and doing things they love!
