He is crawling now!!

Myles is growing up so fast!!  He has the biggest smile and the the bluish eyes!

Myles started really crawling last weekend.  Now he can crawl anywhere.  He
crawls to a step or to someone and tries to stand up.  You can just tell he wants
to walk so bad!!

What a big boy!!

We are so blessed to have a healthy, happy baby Myles!  Casey is doing such a great
job!

Just to cute

Just had to show you the sixth month picture casey took.

He is growing up so fast!

Growing fast

Myles was just at his 6 month check up.  Myles is now 27 3/4" long and weighs 18 lbs and 11 oz.  The doctor said he is going to be a big boy!   Mommy and Grandma Kitty thought the same thing.  He is going
to be tall like his Daddy!!

Myles is now sitting up all the times and playing with toys.  He watches everything that is going on
around him.  He rolls from back to tummy and tummy to back.  Now we have to start watching him
all the time!

Myles started eating green beans, peas, carrots and squash.  So far he likes everything!!  Last week
Casey started him on pears!  He made a little face with the sweet stuff!!

 I saw this sign and liked it!

 Myles visited Grandpa Brian at work at the Post Office.

Myles wanted to stay and sell stamps but Grandma kitty said "No"

He is six months old.

Myles enjoying his lunch!! He is 5 months old.

We are so blessed to have Myles in our lives!  He looks so much like Matt.  Every time I huge Myles I

feel Matt around and feel like I am hugging Matt also.  Myles will be sitting on my lap and talking wit

me and all of a sudden he is gazing off and smiling and talking.  I know Matt is here and spending time

with his son!  This is the best therapy ever!!

 One of Matt and Casey's dear friend is raising money for Relay for Life American Cancer Society.

Busy, Busy Busy

Sorry it took me so long to write.  It is very busy!  I have been watching Myles, Zane, Gavin and Emily on Wednesdays, Thursday's and Fridays.  I am absolutely loving it! I do find myself sitting down and falling
a sleep after they leave.  They sure do wear me out!!

Myles is growing like a weed!  At his 4 month check up he was 15 pds 14ozs, 23 inches long!  The doctor
said he was growing great!!  When you see Myles he is constantly smiling!  He is just like his dad!!!

Myles started at 4 months eating cereal.  At 5 months he has now started Green beans and next week he gets to have peas!!  He is such a good eater.  He is like a bird.  He has his mouth open waiting for you to
put the food in!!  He is rolling over and now working on sitting up.  He is getting close.  He has also found
out he can yell and make noise! He is cute to watch.

Myles gets to play with his cousins when he comes over!  They are getting to be such great friends!!

Growing like a weed!!

Myles has been doing great!  He has been sleeping through the night for about a month.
He smiles and trys very hard to talk to you.  He has been stretching out his body and almost rolling over!!  Myles has been a joy to watch during the days. 

He does let you know when he is hungry and you are not getting his food fast enough!!



Myles most current picture.  Myles is laying on a blanket made out of his Dad's polo shirts.  His great Aunt Shelly and his Grandma Kitty's best friend Mary made the blanket for Grandma Kitty so Myles and all of Matt's niece's and nephews can
wrap up in.  Myles is also playing with his Dad's Taz.  What a cute kid!!!!





Here is Myles with his Godfather, Uncle Nate and his cousin Zane.  Zane is
16 days younger than Myles.  Uncle Nate is having a great time with his
nephews!!




Myles just hanging out and learning to sit and strenghten his neck muscles!
He is doing a great job of this!  He is a very strong kid!




Myles being a "Cool Dude".  Grandma Kitty getting carried away with
taking pictures!



Christine with Gavin and Zane.  Becky with Emily and Casey with Myles.
I am privilege enough to be able to babysit all of them on Wednesdays,
Thursday and Fridays!  They keep me young and tired!!  I enjoy every
minute of my time with my grandchilddren!!

At Myles 3 month check up he was 12 lbs 8 oz!  Tomorrow Myles
goes for his 4 month check up.  I am guessing he is going to be over
14 lbs!!

I believe and sense that Matt is around Myles all the time.  I thank
God every day for a healthy Grandson's.  I am very forunate to have 3
grandson and they are all healthy.  Emily is my Niece's little girl but since
the others call me Grandma, Becky thought it would be easier for her
to call me Grandma too!  I have no problem with that!

Happy Anniversary, Happy Halloween

October 30, 2012 was a little difficult to get through.  This would have been Matt and Casey's second wedding anniversary. Instead had to visit Matt's grave site.  Myles has been a blessing!  He looks so much
like his Dad!  He tends to have some of his Dad's habits.  He is a great tooter!!!

Myles went trick or treating with his cousins, Gavin and Zane.  Gavin was Vat in the Hat and Myles was Thing 1 and Zane was Thing 2.  They all went to visit Myles other cousin Colby.

Now that Casey is back teaching Myles goes to his Aunt's on Monday's, Grandma Linda on Tuesday and I was fortunate to stay part time so I can watch Myles and my niece's little girl on Wednesdays, Thursdays and Friday.  Myles has been a great baby.  He loves to eat.  Can't get the food ready for him fast enough!  He loves to have tummy time.

Today Myles went to his cousin's Zane Baptism.  Casey is God Mother for Zane.  Myles decided during middle of church to fill his diaper.  He smells like his Dad too!!

 God Parents for Zane Matthew Butzine are Uncle Randi, Uncle Nate, Aunt Casey and Matt P. (friend)

Even Gavin had on a matching outfit!!  Was a great day by all!!

At Myles 2 month check up Myles is now 12 lbs 8 oz!  He is growing like a weed.  He wants to get

tall like his Daddy.

Myles is a joy and blessing to our family!  We pray he continues to grow and  have a healthy life.

Headstone

Casey has done amazing job on Matt's headstone!  I could not have imagine that they can draw pictures and then engrave them on a headstone.  The picture looks just like Matt and his car looks great also!  Such details they can do, just amazing!!

It was raining the day I took the pictures so on the words on the back some of the letters are a little wet but the words are perfect!  I thought the sayings she picked out were spot on.  I really miss my son but we love having little Myles to remind us of him every day!!







God has taken Matt in body but his spirit lives on in all of us!  God please watch over Matt's family as
we all try to deal with missing Matt in our own ways!
