Miles Alexander, 8 months!!

Wow, eight months already! My high needs mama's boy is getting so big! In the world of Miles...mama is by far his favorite word, followed by high pitched screaming and squealing. Crawling is just around the corner, but Miles gets wherever he wants to go by doing a cute little butt scoot. He still has just 2 teeth, still not a good sleeper, but at least he's pretty happy! Miles adores his big brother now, especially since he figured out Eli often has food. He is an amazing eater, and I haven't found a food he hasn't liked. (And trust me, I make him EVERYTHING!) So now, some pictures of my handsome little guy!

Starting to get that toothy grin!

Are you serious mama?

He's like an animal in the wild...he spotted Eli's cracker, and he's ready to pounce!

Happy 8 months little man!! We love you!!

Fun Fall Friday part 1

We had a great day today, but we did a few different activities and of course I took a ton of pictures, hence the two part day. We started this BEAUTIFUL fall day by going outside early. With Ohio weather, you never know what the forecast may bring, so we wanted to take advantage of this Indian summer type of day just in case it rained. After being outside for a bit, Callista, Bella and Lucy were on their way to join us for some lunch and testing out some of Eli's new birthday toys. While the kids were eating, Callista and I witnessed their first conversation ever. A real conversation, that was absolutely adorable, and all about cars. I tried to capture a picture of it...but they wouldn't cooperate. Instead, you get to see them stuffing their faces!





After our play date and the boys' naps, I wanted to take a few pictures of Miles, as he's gaining so much strength, the beast will be sitting on his own in no time! Here's my little man doing his "tripod" sit:

Of course Eli had to join in too!!

*melt*

Then we went back outside, as it was in the low 70's, and there was a beautiful breeze. Eli wanted to play with his new mower...

And his new motorcycle...
He was ALL smiles

even more smiles...

even smiling when he fell!

Mr. Miles was enjoying the weather as well!

My goofy boy!

Tub time!

Miles LOVES taking a bath! He giggles, and kicks and splashes the whole time! Looks like he's going to be a water baby like his brother!

All clean!

My Boys!

The three boys were so sweet this morning, it just had to be captured on camera!!

Notice the scratches on Eli's nose and cheek area. Those were from diving off the couch and the nose pieces of his glasses sliding down his face. Good times! Between Miles being sick, and Eli being...well, Eli, I've had to reschedule pictures 4 times now!

Smiles from Mr. Miles!

Miles is such a smiley baby...as long as he's being held of course! Here are a few shots of the little man!
