According to my recent observations, this list that follows records the things that currently make Mr. Miles happy:
* Ruby- he stares at her now for rather long periods of time; seemingly in awe of her high-pitched, often jumping body...She can make him smile almost instantly; all it takes is one Ruby smile. I know what that's like Miles.
* Mom and Dad- both of us can often calm down the lil' man quickly...I especially, because of the "you-know-what's" (breasts- that's for you, Rebecca) full of food...Miles, your gaping-mouth grin melts me man!
*Hands- Miles loves hands. If he can't hold your's, he will hold his own, and man, is THAT cute. I'll post picture of that soon for proof!
*The mobile in the living room- Miles can fixate on the copper and wire mobile for several minutes. He has seemed interested in it and the way it moves since he was brand new.
*Standing up- Miles likes to be vertical lately. He looks so proud when he stands on your lap, so elated he often begins dancing (or soit seems). He also like you to be standing when you hold him, and he likes to be held a lot (he is a far more cuddly baby than Ruby was)....interesting...
*Nature- Miles, like the rest of the family, seems awe struck by nature; makes sense. He enjoys beautiful things just like the rest of us and you can see his curious, wondering nature in his eyes...I look forward to many a nature hike buddy.
*Music- Miles is almost instantly calmed when atop Jacob's lap at the piano. It's precious. Both of our kids enjoy music immensely. Good thing.
*Talking/Singing-The boy seems thoroughly entertained with his gurgly, growly songs/words. I am thoroughly entertained as well.
*Rattle- He can track that colorful wooden rattle like no one's business and now he can even get it in his mouth....you go, boy!

that was fun to read!!! It is so fun to see them grow and change, it would be cool if we could take such delight in other tiny things as we do by a babies tiny movements. I love that smile too!!!! I like Miles also love the Ruby smile! I am sooooo glad you guys are doing this. It makes us closer as a family and helps us to feel a part of your life and those changing all to fast baby, kids lives! Love you!
oh if you haven't checked out my blog lately, check it out. I have the cutest pics of your kids there!!!
Cool! I love Ruby's high pitched voice- he will probably imitate it when he is a teen- if she still has a high voice. i love her voice. That is so cool all the things he loves- you will be so glad you wrote all these things down in later years- He seems like a happy baby.
That was so sweet! Thank you!
