Adventure Monkey

Myles is starting to show a very strong will to get to where he wants, and he's not afraid to work at it a little bit.

Bonding with Grandma T.

Myles had lots of quality time with Grandma T. this week. Myles's babysitter is on vacation, so Grandma came to help out. She arrived on Tuesday afternoon and stayed until Friday afternoon. Wednesday and Thursday, it was just Myles and Grandma and they had a blast. They played, went to the park, went for walks and played some more. Hopefully, Grandpa can come along next time! It's wonderful having them home for the summer!

Making Progress

Myles is making big progress at his attempts to conquer to stairs! He is a determined little guy! More to come...

Lazy Sunday

Just a short clip of Myles being Myles on Sunday afternoon. This is the sort of thing he's up to these days. Crawling and rolling around, tweaking door stops and talking smart.

Rough Start, Great Day

We had a rough start to the day with a crabby Myles waking up a crabby Mommy at 5:30 this morning. However, after an all morning nap (which started about 8:30 and ended about 11:30), the rest of the day was fabulous! We went for a very long walk around the neighborhood to enjoy the beautiful weather and then hit the park for awhile.

For the first time, Myles showed an interest in the stairs, so baby gate time will probably soon be upon us.

We wanted to show Daddy our new moves at the park so we headed back after dinner. Based upon his interest in the stairs this morning, we started working on the stairs at the park.

He also really enjoyed the slide today. So far, he makes it to the edge and then waits for Mommy to go down with him. However, Mommy keeps a close eye because this fearless kid would probably head down all on his own if given much of a chance.

Party Animal

Myles attended a birthday party this afternoon for a little boy in the neighborhood. He enjoyed playing with bubbles and a pool full of colorful balls. He wouldn't try any snowcone, but he did have his first taste of cupcake and seemed to enjoy it. Good practice for his upcoming birthday!

Myles had a playdate this morning with his friends Sydney & Wesley. Mommy forgot the camera, so unfortunately, there is no picture to share. He was a very good boy and enjoyed playing with his friends and their toys. Last night, Myles was offered cut up carrots and beans with his dinner; however, he was not interested. Today, he was offered cut up banana and more carrots and beans, but he was still not interested. We'll keep trying...
