There is something special about how newborns just snuggle into you. I love toting Hadley around on walks in the Baby Bjorn or cuddling her close throughout the days.
Big brother Miles continues to amaze us everyday with the things he does and says. This week he counted to ten - "1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 9, 7." Working on his manners he said to me (all in one sentence) "here you go, thank you, you're welcome."
He's very interested in all of the baby things - bottles, baby toys and the breast pump are fascinating new items for him.
In a smart AND cute moment he put Mike's flip-flops on (the thong between his toes and everything) and proudly marched around the living room singing and clapping his hands. 
Everyday Miles wants to hold Hadley. He gives her kisses and likes to rest his head on her head. Every time he holds her we've been taking their picture together. This morning he wanted to hold her again and I didn't have the camera out but he quickly bossed me "picture mommy." Here are only a few of the tender and goofy moments (I almost included a picture of Miles shoving Hadley off of his lap when he was done with her.).
I love holidays like Father's Day. What better way to spend a Sunday then honoring and spending time with family? In two years Mike has become a dad x 2. Life in our household is often crazy but we're a happy, functioning family because of Mike. He's a great dad. This week we started Hadley on one bottle a day of breast milk. (Yeah! I have a little more freedom now if I want to be away for more then 2 hours.) Here's Mike feeding her the first bottle. She took it like a champ.
Miles loves Curious George and often requests to watch on TV or see on the computer "monkey ah-ah-ah." Here our little monkeys are hanging with daddy.
Father's Day started with Starbucks and cold medicine for Mike. We then had my parents, Mike's parents and Rachel's family over for brunch. This afternoon Mike, me and and the kids took a walk and had another family dinner with Mike's parents. Mike and I each got to celebrate the day with our dads. Since both of our dads have been around this week Miles has been excitedly exclaiming "2 grandpas!"
I want to wish a very special Father's Day to my brother, Matt, who got to celebrate this year with his newborn, Bradyn Matthew. Little Bradyn decided to come 5 weeks early but is so precious, cute and healthy. Congratulations Matt and Janelle! We've skyped with the little guy but can't wait to meet him in-person soon.
