Catching up on photos...

Here's the boy from May on. The fun's just beginning. He started walking on his own in May, so you'll be seeing a lot more of him upright. But then again, since the dog crates seem to be his favorite spot (I think he might think he's a dog), maybe you won't notice the difference! Parenting is wild. It's like riding a mechanical bull. It doesn't really matter how good you are at any one given moment because things change and you've got to stay vigilant and keep up with the latest thing. You can't stay mired to any one phase because, guess what? It's not going to last. It amazes me how almost everybody goes through it.


Myles loves sand. We bought him a sand and water table, but upon lots of advice, we're only putting either sand or water in it at any given time, lest it become a mud and mosquito table.



Myles got to see our friend's daughter, Makenzie, who ironically calls him "Chocolate Chip."

In a suite for two...


In the toy box with Paddington Bear from Auntie Margaret.

The reason there are so many pics of him in the dog's beds is because he's ALWAYS in there, much to our chagrin.

Finally, he sits in the chair. He's been scared of this chair since I got it. Max actually enjoys sitting in it more than Myles.
Horsey rides! New trick.

Here's Myles at the water table. He's obsessed with splashing and couldn't stop. Mark had to pull him away.


Couldn't resist letting him go au naturel.
This was the week her started walking - I think day 3.

He went straight from crawling to running.

A little spring fantasy

I've taken up digital scrapbooking recently - much less clutter than traditional paper scrapbooking. Plus, you guys know I'm a tech nerd anyhow. Here's my creation using the green-screen backdrop Mark got me for Christmas. I got Myles to sit in a chair and draped it over so that the arm would look correct when he was transplanted into digital world.

Birthday Party...More Pics











Birthday Party

Backyard's ready for a party. Enough cars and plastic stuff for a bunch of kids.

Myles isn't too keen on the hat or cake.



Elmo is one of Myles' favorite.



The baby trying to push Myles is barely older than him!

2 1/2 year old Hunter laughs hysterically while 16 month old Hendrix eats a ball.

Owen, who's a month younger than Myles, tries to give him a push.
Everybody knows each other.

Mayumi stole Myles for the majority of the party. She, 7, and brother Morgan, 5, kept him occupied most of the time.

Myles give Morgan a few pointers on his driving technique.
