a lifetime on video

or so it seems for little miles. i took some time during the rainy weekend to make this. with all the pictures and video we have from the past 2+ weeks it gave me an excuse to use a song from one of my favorite bands to show off my favorite little guy. i hope everyone enjoys it because i'll be trying to post more videos in the future.



the inspiration for this video can be seen here.

two weeks old

miles is two weeks old already! he is changing daily and we are amazed at how alert he is. he is usually awake on and off from 6:30pm to 9pm. he loves to "talk" to us and is even attempting smiles. his cord fell off when he was 10 days old, so he is starting to enjoy the bath...at least while he is comfortably in the warm water. he is growing like a weed! he's managed to outgrow an outfit or two. it seems that everything is plenty big enough around, but not long enough. miles has such long arms and legs! here are some updated photos - now that I know how to access them on the laptop, I will do a better job of posting more often. I have heard from some people (auntie beth & auntie jen) that they check the site daily and are needing "more miles!" here you go...

so sleepy!

out and about

miles and i ventured out to take the dogs for a walk around the block today. robin got it on tape so we could post a new video here.

miles is a great baby!! he is eating well and has even let us get four straight hours of sleep each night...this boy takes after his daddy for sure :) we have survived the first bath at home (he hated it), the first sprinkler action all over the changing table, our first venture out of the house (only 30 minutes behind schedule), and the encounter with tinker and tessie. so far...so good! we are smitten with his every little move and we are both head over heels in love with this little baby boy. thanks again for all of the well wishes...we truly appreciate the support. miles is changing so much every day and we (of course) are capturing as much as we can on film! thought you all would enjoy some new photos!
