Miles'tones, birthdays, and fall oh my!!!

Okay, okay, I know, I know...it has been far too long since I posted any news about the family.  However, as the saying goes, no news is good news.  Things are well here, we have been busy.  It has taken a little while to get back into the swing of things, with school starting up for me and Dylan working a lot of overtime it seems crazy that October is almost over!

In my last post I told you about the end of our summer, and at the very end of the summer was, of course, Miles' first birthday!  We had a great time, we had a little get together at my parents house, everyone was so generous and Miles was such a trooper.  We planned his party for after his nap so we didn't have to worry about a tired Miles.  It worked out so well, he clapped after every present, and do you believe he sat in the chair the entire time we unwrapped his presents!

It is hard to believe it has already been a year!!!

 This is the little scooter Dylan and I got for Miles for his birthday.  It is still a little big for him, but I think he is going to love it in no time!

The cupcake adventure went slowly, Miles isn't really into "trying new foods" once he took a little lick off of my finger it was all over!

Our baby definitely has a sweet tooth!

Miles was the lucky recipient of a Barnes and Noble gift certificate as well as a little money and I went a little crazy at the store and scored some major books, which by the way he LOVES to read!

Miles and Dylan enjoy doing their homework together.

Did I mention how much Miles LOVES ravioli?  Does everyone have a picture of themselves looking like this?

We took a little family photo, not bad for using the timer, right?

Then Miles had a little photo shoot out in the yard, doesn't he look like he is channeling his inner model?

Need I say anything at all...

Turning into the best of friends....

He is really workin' it....

So as you noticed from the last couple pics, Miles has a little Nike running suit that he got from his grandpa Dean.  It was the first day he was able to wear the whole ensemble, my mom and I had to hem all of his pants, his size 12 month legs aren't long enough for the 18 month belly he has....awww.  Anyway, Jamie got a good one of him at my folk's house, I mean really, do you think he is trying?

Okay, then there is the hat I got him, it is a little big and yes there are mittens stuck to the side, but it is seriously cute, although he doesn't look to thrilled about it...

This picture is just to cute to leave out of the blog....  He loves to help me do laundry and I just couldn't resist putting him in the dryer, he did not want to come out though...

Here is a little video clip of Miles and his current shenanigans.  if you have the time I think it would probably bring a smile to your face, it is about 2 minutes or so.  The last part of the video is Miles walking around with Bronson's ball, (yes I said walking...he is walking now and our world is turned upside down) Miles loves to walk around and get Bronson to chase him.  It is really cute!  Enjoy!  Hope all is well with you!!! Take care!!!!
