Thanksgiving Day

We spent thanksgiving day at my (Erin) parents' house. I had dressed Miles in an adorable festive fall outfit; however, when we got to my parents' house, he decided to soil that adorable outfit (perfectly planned for Thanksgiving pictures) and we had to put him in the replacement outfit from the diaper bag.

Grandpa got to feed Miles his rice cereal (which was quite comical). It must be disappointing to watch everyone eat such a wonderful meal and then have to eat rice cereal yourself.




Taking a little post Thanksgiving nap with daddy.


My dad's gianormous helping of apple pie (his favorite that my mom doesn't make for him very often).




I also planned to take pictures of the 4 generations living on my mom's side of the family that day because we would all be looking nice. We still took pictures, but Miles was not in his planned attire and then we all (namely my mom and me) got the giggles, so we didn't get the best pictures. We will have to try again soon.


Okay, maybe it was a little bit more than the giggles. :o)



Five Months

Okay Auntie Lauren. I've finally gotten a chance to sit down and post some five month pictures for you to enjoy while you are resting and getting better. I took his 5 month pics at my Nana's house and forgot his monthly frog doll. So, I'll have to take more (SOON) for those, but here are some for your viewing enjoyment in the meantime.
Ooooh, a camera with buttons. I want to play with that.

Okay, my feet are almost as much fun to grab.


And this one captures my wonderfully chunky thighs (please don't laugh at them).

At Five Months, Miles:
  • Still doesn't laugh a lot, but he smiles all the time.
  • Talks all the time and squeals in delight.
  • Loves sitting in out laps.
  • Has crazy strong abs and tips himself forward all the time while sitting propped up.
  • LOVES his rice and oatmeal cereals and eats like a pro.
  • Puts EVERYTHING in his mouth.
  • LOVE his exersaucer.
  • Loves his activity mat, but only on his pack as he still hates tummy time.
  • Love bath time and kicks and splashes all over.
  • Can roll over from his back to his tummy.
  • Loves to grab his feet and roll around.
  • Sleeps through the night.
  • Is getting more hair (which is very blonde).
  • Loves to surprise his mommy by not being in the same place that she left him in his crib.
  • Has his mommy and daddy wrapped around his little finger. (But he's too sweet to take too much advantage of that one).
