Coming Home from the Hospital.






I was discharged from the hospital on Saturday, May 24. Cory dropped Tyler off at my parents house and then came and got me and Jason. We finalized Jason's name about 5 minutes before we left the hospital. Then, we went to mom and dad's and ate dinner, then went home and had a pretty good night. I'm now just starting to get used to the 1am and 3am feedings. It's a lot harder when Tyler comes into our room at those times too. We're doing good so far though.

Tyler and Jason







Tyler was so excited to come see me in the hospital everyday. Here are pictures of the first time Tyler met Jason. All he wanted to do was give Jason hugs and kisses and he did want to sit on his lap too. Thank goodness that that hasn't stuck. Tyler's been really good with Jason so far. Once in awhile Tyler pats Jason on the head a little too hard, or pulls on his arms and legs. He's learning to be soft and he's improved tremendously. I think he really likes having a baby brother.

The ZOO


What are the kids looking so intensely at?


Is it a bear, a lion, or an elephant...?

No, it's just a DUCK. One little duck can make these two, tow year olds ohh and ahh.

This picture was taken in a tepee.


I'm going to do a little catch-up really fast before I post more pictures of Jason. A week before Jason was born, I took Tyler to the Pocatello Zoo with Miss Kathy's pre-school and Grandma Miles, Aunt Melissa, and his cousins Allie and Kayla. I had never been to the Pocatello zoo before and didn't know that there was an up-hill track we had to take. It was crazy. I had the hardest time going downhill and keeping a hold of Tyler's stroller. Was it worth it.....for me, NO, but I know Tyler loved it. Maybe I'll like tit the next time we go.

Joaquin Manny Miles



No, we're not really going to name him Joaquin, but we're also not 100% sure what his name will be.

Right now Jason "Jace" Daniel Miles is the frontrunner.

New game


Our friends were in town over the weekend and they are huge gamers. They are the ones who introduced us to many of our favorites. Well, on Saturday and Sunday night we went and played games with 3 other couples. It was so much fun. We were introduced to 4 games we had never played before. One being Shadow Over Camelot. I thought this game was going to be so nerdy and geeky. But, I really liked it and asked for it for Mother's Day. I'm so excited. Jenni and Ted, are you ready to play games this weekend????? I think you guys will really like this one. Don't let the box and name discourage you from playing. It's so much fun.....and it's really not as complicated as it seems. Heck, I won the game the first time I played it. I was the bad guy though. I loved being the traitor of the bunch. It's so fun to be so mean.

Blessing outfit.....!!!!!

Well, here it is.

I am finally finished. It didn't take too long to make. I went to my mom's on Friday and we finished it a few hours later. Mom had to help me with the piping. I've never done that before. I was originally going to make the collar and trim on the sleeves and shorts navy blue, but the navy seemed so dark. Mom found this piping in one of her drawers and so I decided to give it a try and I love it. I think it turned out perfectly. I sewed the star buttons on just today. My mother-in-law found them for me. I think they add so much to the outfit. Now, I am officially ready to have Joaquin.




Here is Tyler's blessing outfit. I wanted to make Joaquin's a little different. It's a totally different pattern and I think it fits perfectly for the 4th of July weekend.

Look at what Dad started....



After Dad's little traffic violation Cory and I didn't have the best of luck either. First Cory got a stupid parking ticket because he drove to work and forgot to move his car from one 2 hour parking to another. Good thing that was only $10. Well, on Monday I got pulled over on the way to the bank. Stupid school zones. I was going 31 mph in a 20 mph school zone and I didn't even know it was a school zone. I thought the cop would be some what sympathetic because i was pregnant...but no, he still gave me the ticket and he said that he hopes I can take care of it before the baby was born. OH well. I just can't believe it was $75 dollars for that. At least it's not a misdemeanor charge. Sorry Dad.

Cool picture of Tyler..


Sorry Amy, I had to put this on our blog too. I love this picture Amy took of Tyler. He is just so cute. He really likes electronics, like his dad, and love to watch movies on me and Cory's Zen and on Amy's IPOD. What a cool little boy!!!

Weekend trip to UTAH

I know, this post is a bit on the late side, but at least I finally remembered to post. A few weekends ago we made a weekend trip to SLC. We stayed at Melissa's new house and then visited Jenni and Ted on Sunday. It was a good trip and we went shopping on Saturday and got Cory some new dress shirts for work.....and of course those adorable outfits for Joaquin. I hope I don't have to do any more traveling until the baby arrives. That drive killed my back. We only have less than a month left. YEAH.


Here is cute little Allies playing with all the puzzles on the bed.


Tyler loves watching his cousins play.


A few days before we went to Utah, Jenni and Ted cut part of their deck off. Cory helped move the cut part to the side of the house. They plan on pouring a concrete slab where the deck used to be for a patio type thing. Also, Ted and Cory took out all of the rose bushes that you see lined up. We took 6 home with us and we also left some at Melissa and Nathan's house. Thanks Jenni and Ted.


Here are the girls playing on the swingset.



Throwing rocks in the lake. Tyler loved it. It was very cold outside though.


My two handsome guys.

Our baby rocks!
