Wasting no time

Now that he's figured out walking, it's on to kicking!!

Christmas

A few shots from the holidays.

We were happy to have Nana back in town for Christmas!

Blocks and fun container Daddy made.

Playing with the Lego people from Aunt Stephanie and Uncle Aaron

A post-Christmas Eve dinner dancing session with Aunt Mary

A picture with Mama (I have no idea what is going through Miles' head, but it is clearly not 'smile'!)

Giving up

Starting to drop the morning nap....sort of!

Noisy!

Fun new toy from Grandma and Grandpa Evans that has lots of buttons to push. And proof we put up a tree!

Walking

Two little videos to highlight Miles' recent activity....walking! He took a little break after his first steps and then suddenly on Wednesday, decided that walking might be the way to go. It's still not his preferred method, but I don't think it will be long before he's cruising all over the place!

Snowy days

We recently ventured up one of our canyons to enjoy some clean air, a roaring fire and celebrate Sam's birthday. Miles had plenty of warm clothing, but the snow boots I had bought really upset him, so I didn't have any waterproof shoes for him to wear. This required him to spend the evening in our arms and guess what.....he hated it. He wants to be down-moving-doing stuff, not stuck in our arms. Also, he's not a big fan of the puffy winter jacket or being too cold. It was a fun, short-lived experiment. Can't you tell from their expressions!

Drum roll.....

Sorry about the quality of the video. The light in our living room is low at night and the camera was really struggling to focus. The beginning starts with some ball spinning. I know, old news. Stick with it though, because shortly after the spinning he stands up-on his own without holding on to anything! It still startles me sometimes to look around and see him standing in the middle of a room. He's really been practicing this a lot lately and his stability has greatly improved because of it.
