Best airport ever

They have a playground steps from
My gate!!!

After school

Dinner out while daddy is out of town

Talking

Some cute things you have been saying

"how is your day going?". Mist of the time to random people upon meeting them.

"that jacket is pretty mama" or anything specific I am wearing...

"will you be my best friend?" not sure where that concept came from but I love it!!

No Miles!

Yesterday before nap we read "No David!!" the book is all about a little boy who is constantly told "No"

After the book was done you told me "David is like me". I giggled

Daddy left today again for 4 days. As we dropped him off at the airport you cried real, bug juicy tears. It got me going. So sad!

Like roscoe

He found his collar and brought it to me. He asked to be like roscoe and then ran around barking. Exactly like Roscoe indeed.

Playground

Before our trip we played hard for a few hours at a local playground. You loved the grass hill and sled down on cardboard over and over. You would climb to the top and pretend to talk into your hand as if you were buzz lightyear talking to star command.

Flight

Today we flew to the grandparents. I was flying solo and 5 months pregnant so hoping it went smooth. You were such a good guy. You now have a longer attention span and your imagination keeps you busy. The iPad helps too.

Big Bad Wolf

Miles saw one episode of wonder pets on tv about the big bad wolf and couldn't stop talking about it. Now he pretends all the time that he is the wolf and blows our house down.

5 Days of Daddy

Miles is one lucky kid.  Thursday - Monday he got full daddy time.  Today we went to an ultrasound and after that we decided to try to look at strollers. Of course the place was closed so we went to Giggles and Hugs.  Had a blast and ran into a friend. Small world.   Love those days where you really don't have to be anywhere at a certain time.

Farmers Market

Went this am to the market and picked up some veg, eggs and fruit. You rode a horse and did NOT like it at all. Oh well, you tried

Haircut!!!

Someone took miles for a trim while I was out of town. I think he did a great job.

Just Said Goodbye to You

Just said Goodbye to you for the weekend. You could care less.  It was sweet as you told me "I love you Mommy!  Be Safe!  Have fun on your Trip."  All of which you repeated after Daddy prompted you. I wasn't surprised that you were more than excited this a.m. as Daddy gave you promises of "Cool Stuff and Airplanes!"  so you were ready to jump in the car. You also seemed really concerned about Daddy leaving for work today and were happy to find out that he wasn't.

I hope that I get some cute pictures of you while I am gone this weekend and that you and Daddy have some amazing, well needed boy time.

I love you more oodles than noodles!

6 am Wake up Call

One of the perks of living where we live is the beach. Miles, Roscoe and I went to the beach for a walk this morning after we woke up. I bundled that kid up so warm and he was excited to see the water. We talked the whole walk. "What is that guy doing mama?" "Look bikes!" "That guy has a hat on!" and so on and so on. We hit the playground on the way back and little man ran around for a bit. The cool air was amazing and watching the sun come up is always an amazing way to start the day. Miles favorite thing was the tractor that was grooming the sand. We got to see it up close and personal too.

Funny Things...

You are beyond talking up a storm lately. Full concepts, feelings and pretending!  We spent today playing hide and go seek. I love that you tell me where you want me to hide "Mama, you go hide in the tub"  and then count and hide your eyes.  You have a few hiding spots. I think it is about 3. You rotate between them. I pretend I don't know where are and when I ask out loud "Is Miles in here?"  I hear your little voice "No Mama!"  and giggle.

At bath today your imagination kicked into overdrive. I have video but not going to make that public. I think we can giggle at that in the comfort of our own home. 

"You be Zurg Mama" " Me Buzz Lightyear"   and you grab your arm and shoot your laser at me.  I was laughing so hard. 

Taking the octopus and talking to the duck  "Hi little Ghost.   Hi Little Ghost. How was your day?  Oh No... bunch of wawa in there"   "You need wawa duck?" "Want this wawa?"

"Car is going to get ice"  "Walrus, Walrus, where are you Walrus?"  " You need ice?"  "Car get ice Walrus" 


At bed after our books were read and we snuggled in bed... we move onto talking about all the stuff we did today you made me giggle again.  I mentioned how you went to Daddy's work. Right away you said. "M&Ms!" 


"Did you eat M&Ms at Daddy's work?"
"Daddy said NO, Daddy said NO M&Ms"
" How did that make you feel?"
"Sad" 

Then we went on to talking about eating his nose. How quickly they bounce back.
But wow Daddy you are heartless;)  that kid doesn't forget a THING!  Then as I was leaving he asked me to cuddle and to sleep in his big boy bed with him. It is SO HARD to say no but I do. You ask me every night and I know if I do we will start a terrible habit.  But the fact you even want me around it enough to make me smile.
