Birthday Celebration

We celebrated Miles' birthday with balloons, a barbecue and, of course, lots of cake. 

Counting his age on his fingers. He kept insisting that he was turning 5.

He requested a chocolate train cake, and then ate a giant piece in mere minutes.

Slyly scoping out the presents.

It became quite clear that Miles is the second child as Grant hovered over the present opening, getting excited over every gift as if it were his own birthday: "Oh, I can't wait to see what it is...Oh my gosh, Miles, look what you got!" Miles was just as thrilled with his presents: some new books, tinker toys, outdoor toys and a stegosaurus.

Miles Is 3!

Happy birthday to Miles, our sweet and salty, funny and feisty little guy. Another year went by so fast!

Berry Picking

We took a trip to Berry Patch Farms a couple of Saturdays ago to pick blueberries. Unfortunately, we did more searching than picking. The berries were either not quite ripe or completely picked over. The boys still thought the search was fun.

We brought home just a small bag of berries this time. Just enough to make a delicious berry cake. Miles came home with exactly zero blueberries because every single berry he picked ended up in his mouth. At the end of the day, his fingers were blue and his tummy was full. And he was a happy boy.
