BrAZIL

Yesterday Leo and Mikah watched Brazil play in the world cup, Brazil won 2-1.

World Cup

 I think Leo has been looking forward to this day since the last world cup ended!!! For those of you that don't know Leo loves soccer, not only soccer....but Brazil's soccer team. He has been watching soccer all hours of the day and night, whenever he can catch a game during his busy schedule. The other day Jordan and Leo were trying to find jerseys to wear for all the world cup games. They were very disapointed that they couldn't find any at the sports stores around here. Then later that day Abby  and I were at Target to get Mikah some new bottles because DakotaI(our dog) loves breastmilk.... and always finds bottles and chews them!!! He is a weird dog.. anyway we found these jerseys. When the boys came home from work we were in the kitchen cooking with them on. They were so excited, that they had jerseys to wear the next day for the USA game.A few of the guys from one of Leo's offices went to Wing street and watched the game.

They had alot of fun, you can't go wrong when you have sports, pizza, and flat screens in the same room.

This was the first of many world cup parties to come. Brazil plays
Tuesday so I can only imagine what Leo has planned for Tuesday.

Leo is losing sleep, good thing the world cup only lasts 1 month!

Picture Crazy

Well today I decided to take some pics of Mikah, cause I had borrowed Abby's camera. Our hotel room was the perfect little studio!!! NOT... But they are cute! Take a look, they are for my father's day gift that I am making. I will post a picture of what I made after Father's Day.( I don't want Leo to find out)

Yeah I didn't notice he had spit up, and I was trying to take a picture of us.

This is what happens when you try to sit a 2 month old up on his own... face plant into a pillow..sorry       

buddy.

2 Months Old.... ALREADY!

Mikah is already 2 months old! It feels like yesterday that we brought him home from the hospital! He is such a little ball of JOY (and milk)!!! Mikah is smiling and laughing all the time! He can repeat ah-goo, when we talk to him! I will have to post a video! It will melt your heart. I forgot my camera at home.. and have been trying to convince Leo to buy me a new one!(this may take awhile) this will be camera #3 since we got hitched! So the only pics we have are the ones we take from Leo's Iphone. Mikah is HUGE, today I took him to the doctor and he weights 14lbs 2oz! He has almost doubled his birth weight, of 8lbs 4oz. I think its time for a diet!!! Kidding! He is already filling out or grown out of all his 0-3 months clothes. Mikah still loves to be held all the time and loves falling asleep right next to me!! One of Mikah's favorite things to do is talk to Dad. When Leo talks to Mikah he just strares and smiles for a really long time. Mikah used to have a full head of beautiful hair and now some of it is falling out!! It is really sad. But lets be honest it happens to all men, the older they get the more hair they loose!!!! I will have my dear friend Abby take some pics of Mikah and I will post them, so everyone can see how big he has gotten!This is his POOP face!!

A Day At the River

Ally, me and Abby... And Mikah

Well Sunday after church we decided that it would be fun to go fishing! Keep in mind we have THREE couples and ONE fishing pole!!! We went to this little town about 30 mins away. Parked our car in a small farm and walked to the river. It was fun watching Jordan fish for about 20 mins. then we decided we would move on to bigger and better things..... like frog hunting! So Leo put on Jordan's fishing gear and went in a nasty swamp to catch the BABY frogs!!! It was so much fun, we decided to take eight of them home and make a natrual habit for them.

This is what our little Mikah Man did the whole time! I can't wait till we can catch frogs and or fish as a family.

This is how big the frogs are.. so  tiny! But they sure did fool us! We took 8 of these noisy things home! They were so noisy we decided that we would hide them in one of the single guys rooms...... one so we didn't have to deal with the load crooks and two cause it was fun to play a prank for a change! I used to play pranks all the time, but I can only pull so many pranks on Leo..

Ally, Wes, and Abby. Funny how the girls are excited and as you can see Wes was freaking out cause it was trying to escape!

The boys fishing

Ok here is our happy dog dakota! He loved being able to be off his leash and run free! He was running for 3 hours straight, chasing all sorts of things! Also this was before he though Jordan was drowing..... 

Dakota jumped in the river to save Jordan!! He loves Jordan, and for some weird reason thought he was drowing or something... and came to the rescue! Dakota  hates water, so it was a shocking sight, that he  jumped in the river. It was fun to see him swim for the first time!

And.... After!!!!

This is the "natrual habit" that the boys made for the frogs, this was much better than the water bottle they called home before.

And let me just say they lived happily ever after, back in the river!!!!

Home on the Range!!

We have finally arrived where Leo will be working for the summer.... It was a long 2 weeks without Leo alone with the baby. But, with all the help from our families, I made it!!! I was a little nervous about driving 9 hours in a car with a baby, but it was not that bad he would wake up to eat and go right back to sleep! It was so nice, usually he hates the car. It has been great, there is lots of outdoor activities and lots of my friends are here, so I have not been board.I(YET). But, Mikah keeps me very busy!! We have been filling our time with walks, shopping and girl talk, and fishing. And in the evenings we hangout and go group dates. It has been alot of fun. Here are some pics of some events..

Our handsome little son, happy as can be in the car!! This is a change! He is getting so big, he used to look like a little doll in his car seat, let me just say he is filling it out!!!!!! He is such a chunk, I love him double chin and all!!!

This is our group date to Cold Stone, It has been really fun. Leo's highschool friends Brett Selzer, and Jordan Bryner  are working for him. So he is having a really great time hanging out with them.  Poor Brett the fifth wheel. We need to find him a special lady!!!

Leo fishing with the guys!!! And our poor dog, dakota!!! He has been so board since Mikah was  born.

Mikah's Blessing

Today was a special mother's day. Leo blessed Mikah today! It is such a spirital experiance to have your husband bless your child! It was the best mother's day I have ever had! (since this is my first) i bet it will get better every year though! But here are some pics from this special day. We were missing alot of our family, we wish they could have been here to share this special day with us! Here are some pics.........

Leo and I didn't get any pics, so we stole these ones from my mom!! So they are all of my dad A.K.A SUPER DAD, he doesn't want to be called grandpa!!!! And my cute little sis Jessie, who I love so much!

Mikah is getting so big! He is one month old and he weights 11 lbs. 4 oz. the doc said he was off the growth chart, I think my milk is just pure cream!!! Kidding but, he is a chunk, I lovew him and his double chin! He is just a big boy, that loves milk!
