Kiel's First Father's Day

Mia and I surprised Kiel with

breakfast in bed, a digital frame with

Mia's pictures, and a hour message.

Then the Tompkins came over

and we grilled Steaks. Then we

played games.

My mom's new home

(well, the land anyways!)

My mom and her husband, Ray, just bought a lot

to build on. They closed on Monday and will start the

building process soon. I am sooooo

excited for them.

Playdate with Bridget and Erica

We had a fun playdate with Bridget. Its fun to

catch up with our friends and see their new accomplishments
(Bridget is rolling over like a pro).

thanks for letting me borrow them.

Our One year anniversary,

Mia's two month birthday, and our first time

away from Mia

June 14, 2009

Kiel and I celebrated our one year

anniversary today by going to the movies.

We left Mia with Lindy and we went to "The Hangover"

at AMC Cinema Suites.

Mia is TWO MONTHS old.

Update: She is sleeping for 6 hours at night, grasping and batting at

toys, and rolling from tummy to back. She is smiling and laughing

and cooing. She weighs 12 lbs.

Mia's first birthday party

June 13, 2009

Mia had such a busy Saturday. We had a garage

sale and then headed to Mike and Heather's house for

Tommie's 4th birthday party. Mia had lots of fun playing with Katelyn

and all her toys (Katelyn is 4 months old).

A new hat for Mia

June 12, 2009

Today Mia played outside in her

new hat (I have been looking for hats

that fit her little head and finally found

one!) She was such a happy baby today! We even

captured a smile!

Mia's first shots

June 10,2009

Mia went to the doctor today for

her first round of immunizations.

She also had to get a granuloma

removed from her belly button.

The doctor said she is doing great and

is healthy. She weighs 11lb6oz. and is 22inches

(50th percentile for both)

A visit from the Grandparents and

from the Benton Family

June 6, 2009

We had game night with Kiel's

parents and then the Benton's

stopped by- what a nice surprise!

Mia's first concert

and National Doughnut Day

June 5, 2009

We went to Downtown OP for a fair and

a free concert. It was very loud and not much to do so we left,

but not before hitting up Krispie Cream for free doughnut day.

Dinner with Grandma and Ray

June 2, 2009

We had lots of fun watching Mia

play on the floor.

Mia has started holding her whole body up

when she lays on her tummy. She has a super

strong neck and arms!

Fun toys at the Nelson's

June 1, 2009

Mia is sitting in a

Bumbo seat

She really enjoyed this

toy- it lights up and makes

sound when you kick.
