FINALLY!!!

I finally got our blog updated!! Our laptop broke at the beginning of the summer, and they took so long to fix it that we had already moved back to Virginia by the time it was finished. Mom and Dad brought it down last weekend so I have finally been able to update things. By the way, I realize that the blog is mostly about Mila, but we have the blog mainly so that grandparents can see her grow up. So, sorry if you get bored of her, but she really is the cutest member of our family!

Our Energizer Bunny

Mila yelling to go outside. A daily occurance.
She loves to go to the school and run around on all the stairs and ramps there.

We also go to the park to play. We have to do anything we can to wear her out for bed!

Gorgeous View!

Virginia is so beautiful! This is the view from right by our apartment. I can't believe that we already have less than one year left here. I can't wait for us to be done with school, though.

Miscellaneous Mila

Mila decided that the "C" from her foam alphabet made a better nose ring.
Mila would always sneak into great grandma's chair whenever she would get up. She always thought she was being so tricky.

This is actually the handle of a sippie cup. She couldn't make much noise while holding this on her face. A baby muzzle, maybe? I see some definite possibilities!

Fun Times With Dad

This is one of Mila's favorite games to play with Sam. I think she is starting to realize that he is the fun parent. With me, she gets to do fun stuff like get her nose cleaned out, take nasty vitamins, and brush her teeth.

Beautiful Barefoot Baby

I love these pictures so much! I took them at Mom and Dad's house this summer. It was so hard to pick out just a few!

A Day at the Park

Obviously, Mila is not a baby that likes change or new things that much. When we first got to the park all she did was scream on the swings. Poor girl! Soon though, she was playing on the dinosaur and Cinderella's pumpkin carriage. Still, with all the fun things to do she ended up playing the longest with the mulch. Go figure! We could have done that at home!

Best Buds

Tori is pretty much Mila's favorite person. Tori would always take Mila outside, share milkshakes with her, and watch SpongeBob. What baby could resist an aunt like that?

Our Little Babushka

She is soooo cute! There is nothing more than that to say about these pictures!

Happy Helper

I really hope she continues to be this enthusiastic about cleaning as she gets older!

Sleeping Beauty

I'm pretty sure that these are like the only two times that she has just crashed. She usually takes a bit more coaxing to go to sleep so I had to document.

Our Little Water Baby

I got this little frog pool for Mila because she freaked out so much last year about the big pool. What happened was that everyone spent most of the time squished into this tiny pool, while Mila spent most of her time in the big pool. Isn't that the way it goes?!
