Stairs and car seat

Miles has a new favorite activity: climbing stairs. He's surprisingly stable on them already and knows how to go up and down a full flight. He also figured out how to crawl up on the couch. Miles has started running too, especially when he's chasing Jared.

Showing off his cute outfit:

Mothers Day

Miles has officially figured out how to wave on demand. He loves waving "good night" and "good morning" in bed. He is also clapping more, especially when he is excited.

I put Miles in the crib on Monday morning while I was in the shower. He woke up with me around 5am that day, so he was a little tired. He fell asleep playing during my shower. I don't know how this was comfortable.

Miles enjoyed his grilled cheese sandwich.


We had a busy day last Sunday for Mothers Day. Miles and I went for an 8 mile long run, then Jared and Miles took me out to lunch at Jimmy Mac's (hooray for crab cakes!). We went to Steel Lake Park after that and played on the beach, wandered around the playground equipment, and played in the grass.
 Digging with a stick.

Here's a video of Miles playing in the park, showing off some of the things he can identify. No babies were harmed in the making of this video (thanks Jared)!


We also went to a park last Saturday. The weather was so nice last weekend - close to 80 degrees both days! Not so much this weekend...

 On a mission.

Miles managed to get his shoe off...

 He doesn't seem to mind.
 Holding a flower for me to smell.
Playing with the dandelions.



 Too cute.
 Playing catch.


Love this face!

Beach

We went to the beach/park last weekend again. Miles enjoyed playing in the sand.



Covered in sand!


Love my little man!
 There's a ball in my shoe!
 Enjoying drinking out of my water bottle.

Swinging at the park with Jared after the baby gym this week:

Miles figured out how to walk in the sand.
And kicked his ball around.

Building a car with his blocks this morning before breakfast.
Miles is so adorable!

Miles was falling asleep eating lunch with Jared yesterday...caught on video:
