Rolling Over

Miles rolled over from his back to his stomach yesterday. He'd been really close to doing so for a while but couldn't quite figure out how to get his arms out of the way. We'll he figured it out on Tuesday. And then he promptly spit up all over himself. :o)
And, since a post just isn't a post without some pics, here are a few.





Mommy finding a giant leaf during our walk in the unseasonably warm early November weather and getting a little silly. No Miles' head isn't that small, the leaf is just very large.




This hat is pretty much too small now, it doesn't want to stay on his head and I had to keep fixing it the entire walk. He had fallen asleep at this point and looked too cute with his hat all cocked to the side.

October Photo Catch Up

Okay, this is the photo catch up from October. So, yes, I'm a little bit behind on my blogging. What else is new? If it didn't take so long to load all of these pics, I might be able to do it more often, but oh well. Enjoy a random collection of Miles pics from the month of October.




I love how he looks like a celebrity going incognito in this one with his hat and glasses.


Fun games bouncing on mommy's legs.

I love this onesie. He out grew it WAY too fast.





There is a story behind this one. I had taken the extra outfit out of the diaper bag and totally forgot to replace it. Well, at church one Sunday, Miles blew up his outfit (mostly his onesie but a little on the overalls too) and Ryan went to get a new outfit for him but there was NOTHING in the bag. OOOPs. So as Ryan put it, Miles was rocking it Dennis the Menace style that Sunday.


Discovering toys with our mouth. Miles is really grabbing onto EVERYTHING these days.






All dressed up for a funeral.


More toys in the mouth.


Another story behind these pics. I put Miles in the sling so that I could vacuum one day and he started to slump over a bit so I looked at him and he had fallen fast asleep all hunched over. So of course I had to go to the bathroom mirror to take some pictures.

Happy Belated Halloween

Miles was a Pea Pod for Halloween, but he wasn't too thrilled about his costume, so I don't have a lot of pic of him in it. I do have a couple of Halloween related photoshoots included to make up for it though.





For some reason, this next series of 4 pics loaded on the blog backwards, so imagine them in reverse order.








So I bought this cute little one size fits all pumpkin hat for Miles and the stupid thing doesn't fit. So it is literally just sitting on his head. Gotta love those socks though and all those ROLLS.











4 Months

I can't believe that it has been four months already. Miles is getting so big and making new discoveries everyday. Please enjoy this installment of the monthly onesie photoshoot.

The above pic is a bit blurry, but I love his expression and the giant glob of drool cascading down his chin.








At Four Months You:
  • Weigh 17 lbs 12 oz. (No people, that is not a typo.)
  • Measure 25 1/2 inches.
  • Seem to "talk" more everyday.
  • Are grabbing everything you can get you hands on (including mommy's neck skin and your pant legs).
  • Are trying to put things into your mouth (though usually your own hand is all that actually makes it into your mouth).
  • Have rubbed a nice bald spot on the back of your head.
  • Are still very stingy with your laughs but you smile all the time.
  • Still don't love tummy time very much, but will play on tyou back on your playmat for quite a while.
  • Love playing airplane and bouncing on mommy's legs.
  • Are so close to rolling from your back to your tummy (and are already rolling onto your side) as your twist your head and body to investigate the world around (and behind) you.
  • Still love your bouncy chair, but for much shorter periods of time.
  • Are an expert kicker (which usually results in sockless feet).
  • Love to surprise mommy and daddy with where we'll find you in your crib as you twist and move yourself all over.
  • Are definately cuter everyday.
