piece of cake

miles is getting this sitting thing down like it's no big deal! he looks so old sitting on the floor all by himself. we still need to stay nearby to catch him in case he tries to look above his head or turns too fast to watch a speeding puppy fly by. other than that he's doing really well! the bumbo and boppy are certainly coming in handy these days. even though I say he's growing too fast...it's exciting to see him learn new things everyday...we are so proud of him!!

miles loves to be surrounded by his toys
sitting in the bumbo makes it much easier to talk to auntie beth

trick or treat - part two

the annual becker family halloween bash was held last night...and everyone came dressed up in some sort of fun costume!!! it's always fun to see what everyone will be. this year our family came as hot dog vendors with mr. miles dressed as a little hot dog. miles only donned the wiener portion of his costume for a few minutes...he discovered rather quickly that it would make an excellent chewie.

trick or treat - part one

miles had a frightfully fun first halloween! on friday, he dressed up as a dragon and went "trick or treating" - ok so he went to grandpa randy's, the great-grandparents', and grandma and grandpa becker's - but he dressed up nonetheless! I don't have a great picture (yet) - but he did look pretty adorable!

helen

miles has recently come to appreciate auntie helen's hair! to be honest, it's scared him most of the time...but this particular day all was well! helen is a junior in high school and was in need of some homework help...kyle and I both did our best to help out!
