Favorite Things


Favorite Things - Summer 2012
(No particular order)
  1. State Farm Park - It's free and Jiles loves the pool!
  2. Our Garden - This year we have banana peppers, hot peppers, zucchini, squash, cucumbers, tomatoes, cantaloupe, pumpkins, asparagus, eggplant, cauliflower, green beans and strawberries.
  3. Garage Sales - I've been finding amazing deals on clothes and toys for Jiles.
  4. Four Seasons - I enjoy working out while Jiles gets to play with the other kids in childcare.  She walks in on her own (with her blanket of course) ready to play.  When I pick her up they say, "Jiles, mom is here"...she immediately stops what she's doing and comes running to me with a huge smile on her face.  Melts my heart every time!!!! 
  5. Counting down to the arrival of Baby #2!  8 1/2 weeks to go.....August 27th!!!!!

First time trying corn on the cob.  She loved it!


Watching Wonder Pets
(Favorite cartoon) 
Still watching Wonder Pets, just needed to be a little closer.
Counting to three before she jumps off....She
says "none" for "one", haha!

Wanting a helping hand before she jumps.
Snack time - State Farm Park

First flavor ice.
Helping Brodie with his b-day present.
The race...
Kyle and Jiles vs. Bre and Brodie
Jiles was jealous that Brodie was sitting in my lap.  She
joined us, but made it obvious that she did not approve.    

First squash of the season!
