Teeth

Myles is getting his top 2 teeth now. It's been rough on him, but I think we're finally nearing the end of the teeth acquisition stage for awhile. Hopefully he'll take a break on new teeth after the front 4 are all in. He's starting to get back to his nap schedule - the one that was blown to bits when the first 2 teeth came in.

He's been saying mama a lot too. He's been saying it for at least a month, but within the last week or so it means something. Not actually a reference to me yet, but it at least means "help!" He says dada but it just means he's having a good time doing something.

Time is starting to fly with this baby. He can't crawl yet and I'm secretly okay with that. Once they are mobile it's just the beginning of the end of babydom. He has a circular walker that walks around an activity table - the exact opposite of an exersaucer where he stands still in the center of a donut activity table. In this walker, he attempt to chase Max as he walks past. He can't truly walk yet, so he looks like Redd Foxx in Sanford and Sons, ambling along with his arms out airplane style. He looks like a little drunk, but the dogs motivate him a lot. It has been the dogs that have motivated him to launch forward to a crawl-type position from a tripod-sit. He wants to get Max. Minnie not so much. I think it's Max's tail and the fact that he moves around more than Minnie. Minnie is actually the safer dog for Myles. Shorter hair and no tail to pull. Also, she seems less scared of him. Max is a little more wary. He loves 3 year olds and older, but this little one seems a little wild. They are all doing great together though. We just have to monitor their interactions since Myles is prone to yank hair and poke eyeballs.

What else? I'm been bad about updating this blog since my inlaws have Facebook. I'll try and make up for it by posting a bazillion pictures. Also, I don't know who's still reading the blog since I don't get any comment feedback, so it feels like I'm just blabbing into outerspace for no reason.
