Memorial Day at the Lake

The Argue fam spent Memorial Day weekend at the lake and had some nice down time. Mostly because the boat was in the shop getting fixed and the wave runner lift wasn't working. It was still a fun family weekend. We got the baby pool out and put it on the patio under the cover and the boys had so much fun. We brought Miles' bath ring so we wouldn't have to worry about him as much.

Miller the goofball.

We witnessed a Blue Herring or Ichabod (as we like to call them) catching and piercing/killing a catfish on the dock. Very cool.

Love them so much!

Party at the Zoo

One of Miller's friends from his class, Bre, had her birthday party at the zoo a few weeks ago. It was so much fun. One of the favors was an animal mask and Miller hardly took it off the entire time we were there. A zookeeper taught them about a ferret and a turtle and they got the pet both. Here is Miller listening to the zookeeper wearing his mask.

Miles sitting in the stroller as happy as can be. You'd be amazed how entertaining a piece of ice can be.

The boys on the carousel. This was Miles' first carousel ride and he was taking it all in.

He loved it. So far, neither of the boys have my motion sickness - YEA!!!

According to Miller, this was the best part of the party.

Miles - Ten Months

Miles turned 10 months on the 12th and he is now fully moving. He is crawling all over, pulling up on anything and getting into everything. The next three pictures show how hard it was to capture him at 10 months.

Crawling...

Pulling up...

Waving Bye Bye...I'm already missing being able to sit him down in one place and not having to worry about him.

Miller's Preschool Class Picture

This is Miller's first class picture and it is so good. I can't believe they are all looking at the camera. Yep, he's the tallest in the class, but not by much. We sure are going to miss this class. We have made so many good friends and we hope some of them are in his class next year. We also hope he has teachers that are as good as Ms. Debbie and Ms. Monique.

Mother's Day

I had a great Mother's Day last weekend! We went to church and then to brunch at Mo's with my family.

Me and my precious boys!

The weather was so nice that day and after naps we spent some time outside. Then my parents decided to drive over in my dad's 1965 Mustang. Miles had so much fun driving.

Miller just loves JoJo's red convertible.

Miller's Tumbling Show

On Thursday afternoon Miller goes to tumbling class after school. Last Saturday they had an end of the year show. Sorry these pictures are so dark. No matter what setting we had the camera on, we just couldn't get more light in the gym.

All the kiddos were put in groups and Miller was on the white team. He was chosen to hold the flag for his team.

He did so good on the bars.

TA DA!

Miller we are so proud of you!

Miller's "School" Birthday

Since Miller has a summer birthday, he celebrated his birthday at school last Friday. He was a little confused at first, but finally understood once I told him it was his "pretend birthday".

He said he wanted to take M & M cookies to school instead of cupcakes. I thought that was kind of boring, so I got him a big M & M cookie cake. He absolutely loved it! Of course I had a caterpillar put on it since he's in the caterpillar class.

On Fridays, his school has chapel and if it's your birthday you get to wear a crown and go up to the front and everyone sings happy birthday to their friends. Since it really wasn't his birthday, Miller didn't want to wear his crown at first, but he finally got into it. I stayed for chapel to snap a few pictures.

Wasting Away in Margaritaville

On Cinco de Mayo Evan, Blake, Jud and I went to Jimmy Buffett. We have been talking about going with them and my parents for several years. We all decided this was the year and my dad said he would splurge and buy the tickets for the six of us. So, we got tickets the day they went on sale. Then two weeks later, my parents realized they already had a trip planned for that week. Since it was his mistake, my dad told us to go ahead and go if we could sell his two tickets for him. I sold the tickets on StubHub and even made $20 on them.

Jud was ready to party in his old man hawaiian shirt.

Evan the cops in the parking lot were decked out. I'm not sure what a cop on a scooter could do...

We had great seats center stage. Once again...thanks JoJo!

Why does Evan look so short?

Astros Game

We took Miller to his first Astros game of the season a few weeks ago. He saw the baseballs as we were walking up to the stadium and remembered taking a picture on one last year, so he just had to have a picture.

He was super excited to see Junction Jack (mascot) and the train. We saw the train, but Junction Jack was no where to be seen. Miller said he must be in the back eating carrots since he's a bunny. He settled for a picture with Minnie Mouse.

Miller and JoJo watching the game. The Astros stink again this year. Hopefully we will get a new owner soon and they will spend a lot of money on the team.

Tire Swing

I'm trying to be better at catching life moments and not just special things. Miller loves to go across the street to Halle's tire swing. Jud pushes him as high as he possibly can and Miller loves every minute of it. Thanks to the Gibsons for letting us use the swing!
