Changing Miles's diaper has turned into quite a production. Jaclyn's complained to me about this the past several mornings, but today I got a whiff (bad word choice...how about "glimpse"?) of just how challenging it's gotten. The second Miles hits the changing pad, he tries to roll over. After he flips himself over, he starts … Continue reading Day 226

Day 225
Our new place may not feel like much of a home yet, but that hasn't stopped Miles from having a blast with it. If nothing else, he's a big fan of the acoustics in the house. With sparse objects around and nothing on the walls, Miles has discovered that his voice will bounce around whatever … Continue reading Day 225
Day 224
Sunday morning vibes at Rhino Market:
Day 223: Moving Day!
Today, we bid farewell to the apartment we've lived in for four years to move into a house that will provide us with a bit more space to accommodate the ever-growing addition to our lives.

Yesterday, Miles tried meat for the first time. Today, he's perusing the menu at our favorite Mexican place. Talk about progress!

After my trivia show, Jaclyn merrily informed me that Miles began rejecting the chicken soon after this video was shot, but only after he was also … Continue reading Day 220: MEAT
Day 219
Every day, Miles gets closer and closer to crawling. He's gotten good at using his arms to position his body and pivot himself, but getting his legs to work in service of his overall mobility has been a tougher hurdle to jump. Specifically, he can't quite seem to get his leg bent under his body...at … Continue reading Day 219
Day 218: Poop Update 7!
13) The Popeye Look, okay, we all know who Popeye is, and we all know what he likes to eat. Honestly, the less said about this travesty, the better. Find previous entries in our ongoing poop catalogue here, here, here, here, here, here, and here!
Day 217: The Teething Diaries VI
Miles's single, razor-sharp tooth has finally broken through and started to emerge from his gums. Squint really hard, and you can see it right above Jaclyn's finger in the picture below.
