MILES' CHRISTMAS 2010!!!

This year for Christmas we spent it with Brandon's parents. We spent the night on Christmas Eve so we could get the day started on Christmas morning. Miles had a great time spending time with his cousins and getting to know them better. Here are some pictures from the eventful Christmas. More to come from Christmas Eve and Christmas at our place. He is enjoying everything he got except for the new swing set from Grandma Charolette and Grandpa Ken because its still at their place. :) Enjoy everyone.

MILES'S DAY AT THE PARK!!

While we were in California our little condo that we were staying at had a small park for the kids. My dad was kind of enough to stop and let Miles play for a bit on the slide and Miles LOVED it. He would not stop laughing as he was going down the slide. Here are just a couple pictures of the fun he had.

I REALLY AM A GOOD BOY!!

So I am so glad I waited to meet Santa this year. I didnt have to deal with the long lines at the mall because my ward for church had Santa for our ward Christmas party and he was an awesome Santa. Miles on the other hand didnt think so. Everyone did warn me though that he wouldnt be happy this year when he met Santa and they were right as you can see!!

FALLING BEHIND!!

Now that I work its hard to find time to update blogs, but I finally got around to it. Miles is now 14 months and he is getting to be such a smart, fun, energic, amazing etc. etc. etc. little boy. He is finally walking non stop and did it towards the end of Oct. Its nice because now when we are out we can just set him down and hold his hand and he will walk. However he is getting into everything. He was before but now its worse. He is still doing great in daycare and has now gotten to the point where I can drop him off and he wont even cry. He just waves and blows kisses and does his thing. It makes me sad but at the same time very happy that he is so independent. He is learning alot which is so wonderful to see. He loves to sit in his room and read some books and go around the house and says "Whats that". There is a video on here of him saying that. He can also blow kisses which just melts my heart.
For Halloween this year he went as a monkey and I went as a banana. I thought it was clever. He had a good time once we got started. He knew what to do and that was dig into the candy when we went to the doors. Luckily he did know only to crab one at a time. :)
We took him to his first dentist apt a couple days ago. I wanted to take some pics but my camera was acting up so I will just do it at his next one in 6 months. He did an awesome job and the doc said he has a mouth of a 2 year old. He was shocked that his 1 year old molars are fully in (have been since 9 months of age), and that he has up to 16 teeth. That is totally not normal for a 14 month old. But they are coming in fine and he has no cavities. Miles loves brushing his teeth though so I am glad about that.
Anyways he is doing good so enjoy the pics and the videos of my little guy.

DAYCARE!!

Well Miles has now been in daycare for 2 weeks and he is loving it. There are some days that he has a hard time when I drop him off but he gets over it pretty quicky. The teacher says that in the beginning he had a hard time every time someone would come in the room and than leave. He does that at home though it so funny. He just freaks out when the door open and closes. From the notes that we get from his teachers at the end of the day it seems like my child loves to paint and brush his teeth. The other day they were painting with tooth brushes and Miles was trying to stick the tooth brush in his mouth. The good thing about the whole thing is that he likes to brush his teeth the bad thing is its with paint and not tooth paste. No worries though the paint is not toxic. Anyways I am so glad that we decided to put him in the daycare and not in a home daycare. He is learning so much and I know that a TV is not babysitting my kid for 5 hours a day. He is learning to get along with other kids and learning to not be such a mommy and daddy's boy. Though we still have some of those days :). If you see in the post before this he is starting to get to know what we are asking him to do. There are days when he will help clean up his toys and knows right where they need to go. I was very iffy about doing this with him but I am so grateful that we have found a great daycare to watch our little boy. And I am so glad that he is growing up to be a wonderful boy. I will be getting pictures soon of him in his classroom so you can see how well he is enjoying it.

SMART BOY!!

So I am not sure who should get the credit for this one but I love it and it makes my proud. And what I mean by who should take the credit is if daycare should or if I should. Miles new thing to say is "whats that" so I tell him what things are when he says that. Well this book he loves to death and when he gets to the dogs he says "whats that" so I say its the doggy and than I bark. Well now it has come down to this. But I am also not sure if daycare does things like this also. Either way I am happy my son is becoming a smart kid.

1 YEAR PHOTOS!!

We finally found time for Kody to come over and do Miles 1 year photo shoot. It was at 6:30pm but lucky for us Miles was a happy boy. They turned out so good I love them all. Thanks Uncle Kody
