Goodbye Dear Dear Friend, Goodbye!

Dear Paci,

You have been a stand-up friend for the last 10 and 1/2 months, don't you ever forget that. But it is time to go our separate ways. It's not you, It's me. I just think we have grown apart. It am really doing this for your own good. You will thank me for this later. I don't deserve you. You will always be my third love (next to mommy and daddy of course!)

Always,

Miles

After our trip to London, there are a few changes around the house. Miles is such a big boy (almost ONE!) that we decided it is time to ditch the paci. Before the attachment gets too severe thought we would jump in now. Miles cried a bit more at night for a few nights but 4 days later It is almost like he never needed one.

Another big change is the adjustment in daycare. Lisa, our part-time nanny since Miles was 3 months is no longer with us. We have transitioned Miles to full time daycare. Not an easy decision but it is for the best. We will Miss you Lisa! I didn't let her sneak away without a picture so I will post that later.

Changes in bedtime have been made since we returned from London as well. We have pushed Miles bedtime to 7:00 and working at moving it to 7:30. This helps in the morning as he sleeps a bit longer and Mommy is able to get up a tad later than 5:30 am to beat her son out of the gate and actually shower in the morning.

Final big change is that beyond ditching the paci, Miles is now eating big boy food all meal, every meal. No more mush for you boy! We are venturing into a new era and can't wait for my little foodie to explore more textures and flavors.

Next Chapter... kicking the bottle. This one will not be as easy and it is kinda sad on my side as that really means that Miles is no longer a 'baby' and moving into toddler status.

Head Tilt

The other day Miles was making me laugh so hard with this head tilt during dinner. Every time I would feed him fruit he would tilt his head back. Other times it was just because.

Either way, I laughed and cut (brutally chopped) this video together

Legos

I am a bit late in posting these. they are a month old.

Miles and Daddy play with Legos. They aren't all in sharp focus but I like it.

Pirate monkey yogurt mustace

Ready to fly

Baby mug shot

Asleep in the bassnet

Didn't last long but he did sleep there. Instead he slept in mom's
arms most of the time. That flight went so well though. My little man
did great.
