Quick note

Since Thursday everytime we get in the car you ask "animals" over and
over. Think Monday is the zoo again because you loved it.

You also are now making the sounds of animals when I ask you. Cat,
dog,monkey, bird and tiger are the ones you know. Also you are
pointing out girafes "raff" when you see them.

You wave at your stuffed turtle and say "hiiii" and the same goes for
your monkey and pig.

Too much cute for me most days.

Random Videos

Miles has been so talkative lately so here is a collection of random videos documenting some of the little bits

The Beach

Today we hit the beach. We were actually dressed for the occasion and
got in the water for a bit but BURRRR it was so cold.
Miles went straight for the shovel in the mouth right when we sat down
again. I mean this phase has to end soon right? Beyond that he played
with Noel "well" as he prounces it. Watched the birds, at some sandy
sandwiches and "OOOHHH" at the helicopters going by.
Also placed a bucket on our heads to pass the time. Who knew you could
still eat sand througha bucket. My man has talent.

Zoo

Yesterday we went to the zoo. Miles loves animals and being outside so this was a homerun.

I am really not a fan of stuffed animals. They take up so much room and get dusty.

I tried to leave without one but since Miles' Nemo obsession (which has slowed thank god!) he has been really into turtles (CRUSH... DUDE!) He saw a stuffed turtle and "noggin"ed the little guy. I have to get it on video. Miles left with the turtle and was beyond thrilled.

Our Own Pool

Miles loves to play in the water table. This afternoon it warmed up so after nap we ventured out. Before I knew it, that monkey had climbed in. Oh well.

I snapped away. I am renting a lens this week to see if I likey. So far so good. It captures some great colors.

Roar.. Tweet Tweet

waiting for Daddy today in the car Miles told me about some sounds animals make.

DUCKS

We went to go visit the ducks and get a few photos with a lens I am renting for the week. SO hard to photograph a 17 month old boy solo when he is just focused on watching ducks.

Either way... Miles wouldn't stop yelling at the ducks. I was cracking up. At least he is passionate.

Fun "toy"

Buttons are ruling Miles world right now. He LOVES them. My friend
Megan had a great idea that I stole. Give the kid a keyboard of his
own. Success! He loves it and brings it all over the house. Pushing
buttons with toes and fingers he is one happy boy.
