More please

Update

Just a few things I want to write down before I forget

1. the bottle, you cried over it for roughly 3 days. Then you got over it. I was proud.

2. We moved your car seat to forward facing two days ago. You giggle in the car more than ever now and this morning when i dropped you off at daycare you asked for "More Go" I think you like being able to see everything.

3. Finding Nemo is your latest obsession. When you get home at night you ask for "Fisssssh beezzz" you love it.

4. You are constantly asking for "More" when you don't know a word you just say "More Beezzz" and then you say please over and over thinking that if you are polite you will get what you want. Yes baby... that is true in most cases but unless you tell me what you want I can't help you! Still stinkin' cute!

Checking out a cool store

Waiting for our friends for dinner and we went into a really cool

I Found an Old Photo

This is the actual last belly shot before Miles was born. This was taken on the 10th. 5 days before our little man made his debut. I was importing some images from an old small compact flash card and found it.

Sniff, sniff....

15 Month Dr. Appointment

Miles is 25 pounds of cuteness and 31 inches tall. 50% in both but that is the only "average" thing about him.


More shots today. Nothing that a graham cracker couldn't fix. You would say "more, more" while I was driving and and your little hand would reach around your car seat to grab it from me.


Trying to hard to say Roscoe... Miles is calling roscoe "Robbie" which is really funn but at least he is trying!


I also had a first today. It was the first time I washed a hot wheels car. I am sure it won't be the last one I find in the basin.

15 Months Old Today

Dear Miles,

You are 15 months old today and officially in my eyes a toddler. You are a growing person with a ton of energy and your own little personality. some of your latest endeavors include

Picking up new signs like "baby", "help", "fish" and "bath"
Your vocab includes the following

• ball
• please (sounds like bees and is too cute!) you say it when you really want something
• up
• help (kinda sounds like UP)
• milk
• apple
• banana
• moo
  
• coco
• cat
• wa wa
• duck
• bubble
• cheese
• more
• tattoo
  
• dada
• mama
• baba
• GO!
• Nice
• fish
• shoes
• Uh- Oh
• De-Ti ( monkey)
• back
• book
• No
• Yes
  

You are eating everything in sight. YOu currently love graham crackers, peas, blueberries and strawberries. Bananas have taken a back seat.

Walking and almost full out running you are tackling everything. You can climb like a monkey. You actually climbed into the master bath the other day. You have given up the bottle. It has been a full week and it only took 4 days before you stopped crying every morning for it.

You splash like a crazy person in the tub and it makes you laugh so hard when you do. I am soaked from head to toe by the time you are done but I just can't stop you. You are having too much fun. What harm does a little water do?

You have been teething all month. 4 molars and now you are getting another bottom tooth. 12 teeth in total. I hope month 16 you get a little relief from it. It doesn't bother your sleeping very much thank goodness.

When we are out running around you love to use your words. At the grocery store you saw all teh beer kept repeating "baba, baba, baba" and when we went for a walk and were window shopping you pointed out all the shoes to me. Every dog is Coco. You have been trying to say Roscoe but to no avail. It is cute to see you try though.

You are putting some words together. "More cheese"  or "Milk Please"   it is so helpful to know what you want and to see your face light up when I understand you is priceless.

You kiss now. You don't do it on command :)  but you do it when you want to. The other day coco kissed me and then you kissed coco. She licked your face in return and you giggled.  I wished I could have captured that moment.

You like to take things out and put them back where you found them. You tell me as you do this "Duck, Back"   You like to read

I am no home full time and able to spend all the time in the world with you.  Get Ready!


Love you more Oodles than Noodles,
Mama

Example of how Signing has Helped

Tonight at dinner (yes I am talking about you eating again) we were having a grand time. I was sitting next to you talking about the day. I go to let the dogs out to go potty and when I return you look at me and say "elp" and make the sign for help. I look at you and you say it again. I couldn't figure out what you might need help with. All your food was in font of you. YOu start to get a bit distressed so I look down and your foot was stuck! Instead of you having to cry or get frustrated, you were able to tell me you needed help and we went about our dinner. You looked so happy that you were able to tell me what was going on.

Play by Play and Word of the Day "ME"

It seems as if I keep posting stuff about Miles eating. 2 Reasons why:

1. He now eats all day long
2. He doesn't sit still unless he is eating

so here is breakfast and word of the day "Me!"
