There are two things Miles absolutely loves about bedtime. One of them is reading books. Every night after his diaper change, Miles starts aggressively making the sign for "book" with his hands (or an approximation of it, at least) and pointing at the shelves over his head, requesting bedtime classics like Is Your Mama a … Continue reading Day 365

Day 352: The Teething Diaries VII
Last night was the most recent in a series of bedtimes punctuated by Miles's crying, thanks to the new tooth slowly emerging from his upper gums.

However, I'm rethinking this behavior … Continue reading Day 210: The Teething Diaries V
Day 197: The Teething Diaries IV
Well, it finally happened, folks. We've had our first undeniably rough night as parents. This didn't come as a surprise though.

It seemed that even the … Continue reading Day 197: The Teething Diaries IV
