10 Months: Our little big boy

I turned 31 this week.  I chose to age gracefully by making Miles look older too.  He got his first haircut.  After his locks fell away I regretted my decision.  He looks like a real little boy now.  Not so much a baby.  But the haircut has grown on me and I think he's maintained his super cuteness.

Miles now gives hugs! The sweetness of this is just overwhelming.  He will walk back and forth between Lucas and me giving hugs (mostly in the evening).

Mom hugs!

Dad hugs!

We went to Easter at the Carscadden's house last Sunday.  There was bubble fun and good food and sick people and putting babies in boxes.  It was great!

Bubbles!

He seriously stood like this watching Jim
make bubbles for a half hour.

A family that loves bubbles together, stays together.

Miles has met little milestones this week.  He can place an object in a bucket, he can give you an object and let go of it into your hand, he can throw an object forward and he can meaningfully point at things (as opposed to aimlessly pointing).  Then, or course, he made a big leap forward in his mobility: he climbs stairs.

Miles also went to the baseball game this week.  Let's Go O's!

Brooks and Miles hold hands at the game.

I want out!

Okay, I'll eat a french fry and watch the game.

Cutest baby at the game, hands down.

Here's the rest of this weeks' pictures of our little boy:

I think I'll just dip this strawberry in the cottage cheese.

I'm just reading a book.
All by myself.
I don't know if you heard, but I'm a big boy.

Wheeee!

Cute!
