Miles recently moved into the two-year-old class at daycare, a major transition to be sure. Even in the days leading up to the move, he was already talking about his new room, the other kids in the class, and his new teacher.While he's a bit sheepish about the new environment each morning at drop-off, he's … Continue reading Year 3, Day 2

Year 2, Day 356
With today bringing more lousy weather, we decided to take Miles to Monkey Joe's in north Charlotte this evening to run off some energy and, hopefully, go to bed at a reasonable hour. Commanding his attention with a variety of games and inflatables, Monkey Joe's kept Miles more than occupied for a couple hours. While … Continue reading Year 2, Day 356
Year 2, Day 328
Spending time with our friends in Wilmington also means that Miles gets to spend time with his buddy Kaleb. While he's met Kaleb previously, it was only this time that he was able to really play with him. And boy, has Miles taken a liking to him! Miles absolutely adores "Keebah" (as he calls him). … Continue reading Year 2, Day 328
Year 2, Day 292
In the spirit of the season, we went to Olde Mecklenburg Brewery today to stroll through their Christmas market. While Miles enjoyed following us around from vendor to vendor, his favorite part was undoubtedly the family play area.

Once again, the attendees did not disappoint. Much more mobile this year than last, Miles couldn't … Continue reading Year 2, Day 257: Dipsgiving 2019
Year 2, Day 110
The Farmers arrived in town last night, which meant two things: 1) George and I were going to HeroesCon together today and 2) Miles and Audrey would get to spend all sorts of adorable time together that neither of us would be present for. They even got our friends Lori and Garrett's kids in the … Continue reading Year 2, Day 110
Day 230
Today, we took a trip to south Charlotte to visit Hall Family Farm with friends. It was Miles's first time around pumpkins. Miles wasn't able to partake of many of the activities there, but he did seem to enjoy watching some of the older kids run around. And we were able to stop for a … Continue reading Day 230
Day 205
Almost every day I pick Miles up from daycare, one of the other children -- a girl, maybe three years old -- says the same thing the second I walk through the door. "That's the baby's daddy." I never actually see her, I just hear her voice over the cacophony of toddlers, so my typical … Continue reading Day 205
