Myles and Zane having fun!

Myles and Zane have been getting along great.  Zane is now crawling and pulling himself up at furniture.
Myles can't wait for Zane to walk around with him!!  Myles still has only one tooth. Zane got one tooth
after Myles and he now has four teeth!!

 Myles and Zane happen to wear strips on the same day!  They are twins!! LOL

Here are my three grandsons.  Myles, Gavin and Zane!

They are growing up so fast!!

Myles, cute as a button!  

 His cousin Colby taught him.

 "Oh no!" His first words!

Casey took Myles and his cousin Colby out for a walk!

Look what the fresh air did!  They are fast asleep!!

Children are such a gift from God!  Slow down and spend time with your children because they

grow up so fast!

Myles is walking!

On May 25, 2013 Myles took 8 steps for me while I was watching him.  On Friday, May 26, 20132 Myles took 20 steps for Aunt Jenny.  Aunt Jenny says if she wasn't
backed into a corner she thought he would have taken more steps. I told Casey when
she brings him next week he will be walking every where!  Boy was I right! 

Myles is walking all over.  He still uses the wall, furniture and people to help him
to get to a standing position.  Then he is off!!! He is into everything.  His cousin
Zane is army crawling every where and trying to keep up with Myles!

At the same time he decides he wants to walk every where he also got his first
tooth!  His cousin Zane is one week behind him.  Zane's first tooth just broke
through today (6/4/13)!  No wonder this grandson's have been a little fussy but really not to bad at all!






Myles enjoying the nice weather!


Grandma Kitty gave Myles a ride on the fire truck!

Look at Myles go!!  Once he got the hang of it he was off and running!!! :)

Grandchildren are such a joy!  My heart is still hurting but Myles helps it feel a little better.

9 months and growing fast!

I just can't believe it!   Myles is 9 months old already.  Casey said on Thursday, May 9 Myles took 2 steps all by himself!!  He so badly wants to run and play with the other kids!!

Myles no longer wants to sit in his toy box! Much to big he thinks for

his 9 month picture!!

What a cutie!!

Just love kissing those cheeks!

Grandkids are such a blessing to Grandparents!

Myles went for a visit to Johnson Creek Cancer Center

Myles went to visit Dr. Holen and the Nurses, Diana and Dawn and Karen at the Cancer Center.
Dr. Holen couldn't believe how big he was getting.  He saw Myles crawling all over the place and thought Myles will be walking soon!  Myles had a fascination with Dr. Holen's shinny shoes and clasp on his shoes!
Myles kept crawling and trying to get Dr. Holen's shoes from him.  Then he would grab his pant leg and stand himself up!  All Myles did was smile and talk with all the girls!!!

 Diana is in the blue and had helped Matt with all his chemo.  The other RN helped Matt with his radiation.

This is Dr. Kyle Holen.  He was one of his Cancer Doctor.  Myles thought 

he was pretty cool!

Myles and Grandma Kitty got to see the Magnola tree that we donated in Matt's name bloom this year.  It had about 3 or 4 blooms on it!  It is growing good!!

While we grieve here on earth for our loss, our loved ones are with God doing His work and looking after us from there.  Some day we will be able to not weep for our loss and sadness but we will be able to rejoice in a life lived and the time we were blessed to be able to spend together.

Myles is growing up so fast!

Myles is now 8 months old.  He is crawling all over the place!  You can put a walking toy infront of him and he will use it to walk across the livingroom floor!  Mom is not
to excited about him walking yet!!!


Trying to dress Myles who doesn't like to lay still.  He just wants to go, go go!!

What a blessing Grandchildren are!  They keep me young!  I love being able
to be home Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays watching the grandchildren!!

Myles won and now had to crack eggs with cousin Luke.
Myles won again!

Ally won!   Myles did great this year at Easter.  We will
have to see what next year brings.  Maybe he will go farther!



Aunt Teresee and Ella teaching Myles how to make faces!  I
don't think he needs any help doing that!!

Uncle Andy and cousin Amanda having fun with Myles on Easter.

Grandma Kitty and Aunt Jenny went for a walk in Watertown and stopped to have lunch at a local cafe.  Myles couldn't wait for his food!


Decided while he was waiting for his food to eat his favorite stuffed Monkey! it was a little windy but a beautiful day for a walk! Then we met up with Mommy and she took
Myles home!!



Oh Lord, I do not ask for much,

Eternal beauty, or youth, or such.
Just give me a little hand to hold,
And I'll forget that I'm growing old.

I do not ask for cloudless skies,
A life that's free from tears and sighs.
Just give me a little face to kiss,
And anxious moments will turn to bliss.

For what is there, really, that means so much
As little hands that reach and touch,
As little eyes that search and see
Only the best in fragile me?

So let me grow more loving and wise
By looking at life through their wide eyes.
For through these little ones, you have given
This grateful grandmother a glimpse of Heaven.

Happy Golden Birhday Matt!

Matt's would have been 24 yesterday, April 24.  Happy Golden Birthday Matthew!

Your family miss you everyday!  We love you and keep you in our hearts always!

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!!


Myles and his cousin Zane who is 16 days younger than Myles.
Myles and Zane enjoy playing with each other. 


Myles got to spend some time with his Great Grandma Jo.

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