Big Boy Bike - in the rain...

We went out for a walk and to the park last weekend and were caught in a storm. It wasn't too big a deal, and Miles LOVED the adventure....

Daycare Choo Choo

One day 2 weeks ago, Tim and I went to pick up Miles from Mamma Sue's. We've had some serious rain over the last couple of weeks so the kids have been forced inside. One day we arrived and they were all on the floor and a couch going over flash cards. On this particular day, the kids were squealing with delight as they paraded around the sun room pretending to be a train. So cute!!!

Oh my...

It's been forever since we last posted. I am on maternity leave and frantically nesting. I already spent hours in the kid's closet organizing, folding, sorting, laundering, etc. Their room is totally done and we are actually fully prepared for our little girl to come along - which is nice!

In order to recap what's been going on, I am hoping to get out a bunch of posts over the next couple of days. I am trying to finally start to rest before the middle of the night onslaught, but I am still compelled to clean!!!

Big Boy Bike

Miles got his "Big Boy Bike" Christmas present from Beebles and Daddo. He loves it and its now the preferred method of cruising down town. The bike comes with an imaginary horn and enough torque to pull wheelies from a roll.

We've put a few block on the odometer and have been very happy with the performance; though Miles' performance (talking to himself) the other day was something to see. Luckily we caught some on video.

Miles gets a lot of looks from people as he passes by, but perhaps none more than from the 19-24mo. old crowd of girls at the playground. Its true what they say...girls go 'goo goo' for a boy with wheels of his own.

"ay, you likah muh bike? Deez are custom wheelz and the paint...ooh! Forgettaboutit."

Miles couldn't make it all the way home from downtown the other morning. At first we thought he was just looking down at the ground as we pushed him home. Realizing after a few minutes of him not moving that he might be asleep. He was.

More cruisin to be doin, but for now...rest.

Ring Tone Dancing

Up in Reno, Miles fell in love with Mama's cell phone ring tone. It became a fun game for us as we called him over and over again - and every time he literally would stop what he was doing, get up and dance. You can actually here him say "Dance" when he recognized the music.

Good times...

The Cousin's Wii

Tim's brother's family got a Wii for Christmas and brought it down to the Reno house. Needless to say, the day after Christmas was mostly spent in front of the games. While Miles didn't actually get a chance to play, he did love the drum set.





...while Tim was sore for a week from boxing...

Beep

Miles loves dip, or "beep". If you actually show him this video (and we did a couple of times) he will disengage with you and walk to the fridge asking for it.
