Thanksgiving

It was a fun, but full day. We started off at Grandpa and Grandma Evans' house:



Then, the evening was spent with the Phillips clan and good friends, Sam and Mitch. Incredible day with lots of good food and visiting!

Penny created a magical feast, as usual! Archie was in charge of some vegan fare which was also a hit.

Globetrottin' it

A little taste of what Miles has been doing in his spare time. He loves, loves, loves playing with balls and has gotten quite innovative lately.

Hair?

You bet! If you squint and turn your head a little to the right, you'll see it!

The stats are in!

I forgot to post these from our last pediatrician visit for his one-year check-up:

Height: 30 1/4 inches (60th percentile)
Weight: 19 lb. 9 oz. (10th percentile)

Don't worry. I know his weight has dropped. He is totally fine and healthy. This is perfectly normal as babies become more active-which he definitely has! Dr. Lou gave us a clean bill of health and said everything looks great!

It's winter!

I think his face says it all! And, why the same spot in the yard for the photo shoot you ask? Well, this is currently Miles' obsession-to stand next to the solar light and observe the landscaping/pumpkins. If he doesn't get to stop and peruse, watch out!

Introducing......the solar light and the amazing technicolor hand-me-down pants! I love those pants-Max and Madeleine gave them to us and Miles can finally wear them. They were a favorite of mine when those guys were little too! Also, this is before we got a proper winter jacket, so he has about four layers on.

Winter jacket.....check! Uncertainty about the cold......check! Crazy people going for a walk before the blizzard of 2010.....check!

Cheese!

Boo Boo

First minor injury. So sad! While helping us with yard work this morning, Miles did a face plant onto the cement. His teeth are just fine, but he got a puffy upper lip. Fortunately, his attitude hasn't been affected!
