Year 5, Day 359

I found a good solution for the "we're out at dinner but Miles is getting punchy" dilemma: have him sit on the side of the booth where the television showing silly animal videos is in full view.

Year 3, Day 123

Miles got a rare treat today, as it was moving day for a couple of our friends and we agreed to help out by taking care of their tiny dog, Taco.
