Ed had to work yesterday and Dawn was watching Miles so we decided to do an impromptu daycare date. Wren (mom), Niah (4 yrs), Grae (3 months), Owen (3 yrs), me (mom), Dawn and Miles (3 yrs) piled into Dawn's van and headed downtown to the Arizona BBQ festival. It was gorgeous, with good food, music and games and utterly exhausting.
The three amigos. It's so fun watching these guys grow up together. They now have full on conversations with each other. It's kind of sad because all three will be leaving the daycare by summer and heading off to different preschools. We (the parents) were going to try and keep them together but we all live in different cities so it wasn't realistic.
Miles and Owen act like they are brothers. They like each other one minute and start beating up on each other the next. Right now, they love finding what irritates the other and exploiting that to its fullest. By the end of this trip, I was exhausted just trying to keep peace.
Niah is an incredible little girl. She is this curly haired wild child. She is such a handful but can get away with it because she looks like Shirley Temple. Owen is on a Niah kick right now and talks about her all the time. Niah is good for Owen because she is outgoing yet acts like a bigger sister to him. She was in the bounce house at the bbq festival and Owen was nervous about getting in. So she gets out and says, "What wrong Owen? You need help or something?" and proceeds to pretty much throw him in the bounce house. After which Miles tackled the crap out him. Gotta love friends.

Look at that picture with the three munchkins in their car seats. Very cute! And yes, you're right, it's hard to think of them being separated. :0( It looks like a great time at the park, and at first I thought it was a real animal that Miles was sitting on . . . until I looked a little more closely. I thought that was pretty brave of him! (It was probably pretty brave of him as it was :0).
Glad you all had a good time. Loved ALL the pictures. Hope you guys have a great week. Love, Mom / Grandma Bug
