Because Miles is still My Baby, I forget that he once really was an actual baby. I can't remember much from the first 6 months of Miles' life (lack of sleep I guess) but I distinctly remember when Terry took these pictures.

Anything to go outside

The other day Miles took my deodorant and ran into the other room. I didn't think much of it until I caught him putting it on like sunblock! It does look like a big version of his sunblock stick so I can't blame him, but it made a huge mess. Miles knows that we always put it on before we go outside and this was Miles' way of letting me know he was ready for the outdoors.
Based of the way he would not make eye contact I am pretty sure he knew he was up to no good.


Not quite as smooth as the real thing.

Toddlers are full of funny and messy ideas!

Toddler Time

Miles wants everything anyone else has. In this case it was the camera.
Here he is crying while signing "please."
Realizing that the camera is still not a choice, Miles decided it was time to bring on the tears.
I have seen these expressions quite often over the past few weeks. I am not making fun of Miles, it is just that after the 100th time in the last 3 hours it is hard to not laugh. Either that or cry myself.


All better. For the moment......

Happy Birthday To Me!!!!!

Look what Terry got me!!! It was a total surprise and I love it. Really takes the edge off turning 30.

Colorado Trip 2009

We drove 13 hours (over 2 days) to get to beautiful Colorado. Miles did really well in the car but by the time we got there we were all ready for a break. On the trip home we left in the evening and drove all night. Luckily Miles slept for 9 of the 13 hours.

The river was right outside the cabin so we were able to fish whenever we felt like it. (We ate that fishy for dinner. Yum!)

Miles loved the giant bear at Honeyville.

Miles and Zephyr spent lots of time playing outside with Grandma.
The rocks were a big hit.

Miles was a fan of the mountain fresh water, no matter were he found it.

Another great photo of me and Miles :)
We were so busy enjoying the trip, and chasing after Miles, that we failed to take very many photos :( It was great to get away and spend time with family. We miss it already.
