Little Monkey... tricks or treats

Miles' circled the complex today as a monkey collecting little yummys in his felt pumpkin.

The ears only lasted so long. He actually walked his fair share. Wasn't upset or scared by any of the costumes and charmed the pants off of more than a few.

Look what Miles came home with?

I love Therese at daycare. She made these with the kids today. Miles
"helped" with it. Now I have some decorations for tomorrow

Bath time bath time!

Tonight the bath was an excuse to to snap a few pictures with my phone

He loves books

Flipping the pages over and over. Little guy loves it. I had to lather
his face before bed because he was a tad chapped from playing outside

Good Morning Daddy

Daddy worked late last night and pulled another all nighter. Miles didn't get to see him this morning but wanted to send his love anyway.

Second Haircut

This one was less dramatic but we had more cries. We knew better than
to take him. Short nap and long day of running errands= crank. Oh well
he was still stinking cute.
Just trimmed by the ears and in the back.

Happy Early Halloween!!!

Snapped at the grocery

Sunday with Mommy

Daddy is off getting his tattoo finished so wr had the day together.
The LB Aquarium was so much fun with you the second time around. You
are now able to walk up to the tanks and stare right at the fish.
You then went to Ikea with mr and enjoyed a hot dog after shopping
Now you are napping. You fell asleep so fast. Guess I wore you out.

Sunday Morning Relaxing In bed

On the Hip

Miles is sooo hip as he sits on daddy's while window shopping on la
brea.

He wants a hog

Working the Run Bike

Birthday Cupcake

Yes this video is 13 minutes long. Yes I know it is extreme. BUT, I think of this blog as a baby book of sorts and use it to document what my little man has been up to. So here you have it.

Below is my son's first cupcake. His first birthday. His first BIG, BIG mess.

This is his ACTUAL birthday with a little homemade cupcake to celebrate. He enjoyed ever single bite of it even if 1/2 of it ended up on his tummy.

Babbles

This video is longer. Miles and I have a little dialogue. He signs book and talks to me a bit about his day.

Immitate Much?

Miles is imitating a bit more these days. Video quality here is rough but I still found it funny.

More Birthday Trickle

Grandparents sent some photos today. Posting a few!

Cooking in the Kitchen

Run bike

We got Miles a run bike for his birthday. So far he likes. He will ride if for a minute and then get off and push it around for a while. This video is Miles testing it out. Next time I will get him out of the garage.

His First Big Apple

YUM! I had to start it for him but after that his little rabbit teeth dug in.

Walking more

Today Miles turned a corner. Until today he walked until he fell and then he would crawl away. Now when he falls he pops back up and
continues to move.

Little guy wasn't feeling the best today but still was moving around the house quickly.

Sunday the Pumpkin Patch and Park

Grandma and Grandpa were in town for one more day! We took advantage and went to the pumpkin patch and the playground. Miles was walking around testing out his new found talent of the two step while we chased him. Train ride with Grandma and the petting zoo with Grandpa topped off the weekend.




I love this smile! All I have to do is look at a picture like this and I can get through the rest of my workday knowing I get to cuddle my little guy in a few short hours.
Hercules! Hercules!
Petting Zoo with Grandpa.
Grandma and Miles rode the train. He takes that seriously.
