happy independence day

We celebrated the holiday with Miles' first trip to the beach and a picnic with Aunt Heather and Aunt Wendy. It's no "downy ocean, hon" but I think he had fun.

Miles' latest toy (aka, Mommy's containment device so she can take a shower).

minty fresh

With all of this eating, we figure we should start teaching Miles good oral hygiene, too. 

soup du jour

On the menu this afternoon, we have a fresh Cream of Egg Yolk soup. Bon Appetit!

the end of an era

Seems like it's time to retire the 3-6 month baby toys (sniff, sniff).

gestation buddies

Another playdate with Eve and Taggert - fun times!

summertime!

Miles has been enjoying the first week of summer. He had his first ride on a swing, and got a library card.

more yums

Miles devoured his first bowl of rice cereal.

bedroom update

Just a little redecorating - new bedspread and bedside lights:

big turkey

Miles enjoyed his 6-month check up - we really need to get a roll of that paper they use to cover the examining tables! He now weighs in at 20 pounds and 1 ounce, and measures 28 inches long.
