Celebrating Baby's First Birthday

Milo recently turned a year old. I have been avoiding this post, just as I was in denial about his birthday. I cried for a week. Although there is no noticable change in him, I feel his babyhood quickly slipping away. The last year has passed in giggles and grins and snuggles and a lingering triumph over having created this masterpiece of a boy. It has been the best year of my life thus far, and I continue to be in love with the little human below.

Long, but very sweet......

Summer Sailed

Summer was a whirlwind of activity. Here is a very brief and unorganized synopsis.

The boy ate and grew.

We played at Cherry Hill.

We went to Yellowstone National Park......


Jackson Hole, Wyoming......

and Island Park, Idaho.


We celebrated our 15th wedding anniversary.

Kiki learned to swim.

We went to the Utah Art Festival



Mac and Walter learned to bike.

We had lots of silly fun outside.

The girls won ribbons at the science fair after hours of experiments.












Mac ate and grew, then ate and grew, then ate some more.

Did I mention all of the silly and MESSY fun?
