What's Going Down

Weird-cute. Whatever that means.

Miles will be turning 3 on Wednesday. I don't even want to think about how quickly the time has flown by, because it makes me start to hyperventilate.

There are a million tiny reasons why Miles is just about the cutest/strangest kid you ever met. I'll just share a couple.

First... well, there's this.
not sure what this kid is doing.
I think he was pretending to be a "bad guy." Notice the location of his thumbs? What you gratefully miss here is that about .624 of a second later, Miles unpantsed himself and went running around the house screaming hysterically, pantyhose still on head, but otherwise naked. Still not sure what that was about! And, the best part was that we had company over.

first picture
Miles has suddenly started fancying himself an artist. This is apparently our family. This also represents the very first time I've caught him drawing anything other than scribbles. That little mouthless conehead on the right end is Lucas. Or so he tells me.
good to the last drop.
And here we have Miles demonstrating how he can afford to refuse to eat the delicious dinner I made tonight. Drinking every drop of his breakfast "cerealmilk" is sure to stave off midnight hunger pangs, right?
three
I've said this before, but he really is quite an enjoyable little boy. Two's been good to us. Let's hope three treats us with a little respect (and less wet underpants, okay buddy?)
just him.

I have the same Thomas underwear! (Well my 4 year old does) He must me a cool kid if he's sporting Thomas undies.

He's absolutely scrumptious. I know what you mean about time Flying...Life seems to fly by after you have kids. I consider every kid's bday their mama's bday - so, Happy Birthday Miles and Happy Mother's Day, Alissa.

Too funny. What a cutie. Is he the 'ham' of the family?

Sad to see you won't be doing photography anymore, but completely understand. One day you'll have time on your hands again and you can go back to it. Until then, I'll just enjoy visiting your blog and enjoying great photos of your kids :)

Miles, you totally crack me up. And Tab has those same underwear. I think we may have been together when we bought them.

Alissa said...
