Pajama Day

Fall has finally arrived in Dallas (at least for a couple of days) and so I thought what a great way to spend a cool cloudy day than by staying in our PJs all day. We had the best time. Miles was wearing his favorite "aminal" PJs which made it even more of a bonus. We watched a movie- Lion King, of course, baked muffins, colored, built a fort out of blankets, and just had an all around perfect day! The girls had a great time too! No car seats, all their toys, and attention from their big brother, which they LOVE! It was a tiring day for me, but so worth it, just to see the smiles on all three of their faces. Enjoy the pics...

Miles decided it would be fun to hang out with Marley in the bouncy seats.

Solid Foods


Starting the girls on solids was a hard decision for me. Not really sure why, because with Miles, I could not wait for him to start eating solids. Maybe because he was the first and I don't want the babies to grow up too quickly, I'm not sure why, but I kept holding off. While we were at the lake for our "staycation" I finally decided to give in and try out rice cereal. It was hilarious! They were not fans of the spoon, but what was even funnier was Miles wanting to be fed like a baby and not knowing what he was getting himself into. He could not spit that rice cereal out fast enough and then dramatically yell, "gross!"






Gross!

Feeding all three.

The Magsters is loving it!

Miles the Landscaper

We think Miles has officially found his calling in life. For awhile we thought he would be a chef, but now we are positive he is going to be a gardener. We put our house on the market a couple of weeks ago (reason why I did not write one thing on this blog the whole month of August) and one of the first things we needed to do was plant some flowers and add color to some flower pots. Not sure if it was an excuse for him to play with dirt, but he did a great job!







Notice all the dirt on the ground- that was not there before we started!

He moved dirt from the pot to the ground. It was a big help!


So proud of himself! He really did help a lot!



Not that you can really see the flowers, but here is what you see when you drive up.
