Year 5, Day 3

We took some time today to get into all the goodies Miles got for his birthday. Unsurprisingly, he was most drawn to the thing that involves hurling axes through the living room. Again, eternal thanks to Jacques for that one.

Year 4, Day 353

"I don't like football anymore!" Miles proclaimed the morning of Super Bowl LVI. "I like basketball now!" Hours later, while at our friends' place watching The Big GameTM, Miles demonstrated an interest in a different ball-related game. Peg-Your-Friend-in-the-Face Ball, to be specific.

Year 3, Day 351

As is typical of the 7:00-8:00 hour, Miles was was wired tonight, running roughshod over the house and wanting to do absolutely anything OTHER than eat dinner (or let Dad watch Jeopardy! in peace).

With this in mind, I attempted to do a little incognito recon today at pick-up. With the door to the toddler … Continue reading Year 2, Day 141 →

Year 2, Day 115

A few things about this video: Anything shaped like a square or rectangle is a book until proven otherwise (notice how he tries to "open" the cards). Miles really enjoys handing me things. He enjoys throwing things at his mother.

Year 2, Day 12

Of all the gifts Miles received for his birthday, perhaps the largest was the ball pit he received from Aunt Andrea and Uncle Scott.
