Aric in his F150..

Aric got this for Christmas last year..
Now he's finally big enough..!

This was too cute..

He was driving everywhere, all over the rocks, in the neighbors yard, & standing up while driving..

He kept crashing into all the big rocks, and then reversed off the sidewalk..

He was so worried when he couldn't go anywhere..

The Circus came to town...!

He was so big.. He held on & rode all by himself.. ($6.00)

Eating lots & lots of cotton candy.. ($3.00 each)

All the kids sharing the same snow cone.. ($3.00)

Daddy had to buy Aric the light saber. ($10.00)

Miles loved it too...

Daddy having his hands full.. (Priceless)

It's a good thing we didn't have to pay to get in because they got our money..Aric loved it so much he talks about it every day. How he rode a pony, saw the elephants, bears, doggies, motorcycles, and clowns.

Miles had to try the toy out for himself..!

Having fun by himself...

Then Aric wanted to play (at least he is sharing)

Cause Miles isn't... Sibling rivalry already.. :)

I got it..

And it goes strait in my mouth..

Daddy bought Aric a new Jungle toy.. They both love it..!

This is the best toy.. It's kept him occupied for an hour.. :)

It makes all kinds of animal noises and the monkey shoots little round things out of it's mouth and his eyes turn red.. Aric loves it.

It also came with all kinds of animals like a snake, spider, hippo, cheetah, zebra, bird, & 2 men.

Miles tries baby food..!

I gave him sweet potatoes first..(those were Aric's favorite)

He acctually liked them after a minute..

He wasn't to sure about the applesauce..

Playing at the park..!

We needed to go grocery shopping, so we decided we had better take Aric to the park to run off some energy first.. There is a new park off of Dixie Drive so we thought we would check it out. Its really a nice park, there was a lot for bigger kids, but there was a little play thing for younger kids too, so thats where we spent most our time. :)

Going down the slide..

Miles wanted to go too..

This was too cute.. Chance pushing Aric & Skylie on the mock skateboard roller coaster thing..?

He melts my heart..

Aric had to enter the park that way.. Daddy is so fun...!

Both boys get their pictures taken...!

I decided to get Miles' 6 month pictures done, plus we didn't have any pictures of them together, so when we were getting ready I realized I didn't have an outfit for either boy to wear.. I called Ashlie and we hit the stores.. We went to TJ Maxx and Dillards.. Still nothing so I decided to go home & find something there.. By then it was nap time, but I was determined to get those pictures taken.. So we decided to head over to Kiddie Kandids and there was only one person working and they were already helping someone else.. Since we were already there we decided to wait.. By then it was an hour past nap time and you could see it in both of them.. They were troopers until it came time to actually get on the stand and take the pictures.. The girl let Aric push the button to take a picture and he was all giggles after that, until he had to hold his brother.. But after bribing him he did it and these are the pictures we ended up with.. I am glad it all worked out.. I love them..

I love when he sucks on his bottom lip like that..

He could almost sit up by himself..

What a poser..

Miles was a little worried, but it's still adorable..

This one is my favorite.. It's cute of both of them..

First bath together..!

I was watching Aric in the bath & holding Miles.

Miles started cooing and Aric said "He wants to take a bath too..

Aric was so good to share all his toys.. It was serious business playing in the tub :) I can't hardly believe their big enough to bath together..

Gorgeous boy.. I love your eyes..

My little model... So handsome..

All lotioned up.. Ready for stories & bed..

Happy 6th wedding anniversary...!

We celebrated on September 7th..!

Chance brought me the birds of paradise, and I guess when they were picking out the flowers Aric liked the blue ones, and he wouldn't let Chance put them back.. So of course daddy bought them and Aric brought them to me.. It was so sweet. :)

We wanted to spend some time together, so Chance's mom babysat the kids while we went to The Outback for dinner and to the movie Babylon A.D.

We had so much fun just the two of us (even if it was only for a couple hours:)

It's crazy how dramatically your life changes after kids. They become your world and everything revolves around them (I love it), but it was nice to have a day to remember and reflect on how it all began.. I love you honey.. Happy Anniversary.. xoxox

Can't wait to celebrate on that cruise next year.. :)

Aric's friend Colin turns 2... Happy Birthday..!

Aric had so much fun at the party.. Except when he didn't get to blow out the candles..! Its so funny because he always wants birthday cake, but when it comes time to actually eat it he never does...? Must just be the experience...!

Miles always trying to eat fingers or toes..

He always has a hand or a foot in his mouth almost at all times.. It's crazy because Aric never put anything in his mouth..And he's still a picky eater. :)

Best Friends..(So far anyway)

Aric is the best big brother in the whole world.

(makes me wish I had one:)

When Miles would drop his toys, Aric would pick them up for him and put them back on his tray.

He adores his baby brother and is always hugging and kissing him..
