Myles, 3 Months Old



MYLES FLYNN, 3 months old

Myles is officially 3 months old & such a joy! We're amazed by him on a daily basis & never tire of all the different changes & new things he experiences. His smiles, giggles, wide-eyed amazement at new things & little/big personality are constantly entertaining.

Myles, bumbo sitter (check out that neck strength, holds up that big ole baby head!)

When I took this pic, I didn't post it right away b/c I used it on the Christmas card & wanted to wait; however, now you can REALLY see how much hair Myles has lost in the last couple weeks (I think this pic was from 11/9.)  He has male pattern hair loss & we are looking into some baby-grade rogaine for him. :-)  Actually, I don't mind it so much - I like the "koala" look on him - full on the sides, sparse on top, haha!

Happy Thanksgiving

Myles had his first Thanksgiving! Although he was too young to partake in any of the delicious food, I guess he received some of its nutrients through a "middleman" of sorts. :-) 

On a slightly separate note, the night of Thanksgiving marked the first time Myles slept through the night! Woo hoo, yea for Myles (& Mama & Daddy!) 

Myles wishes you a Happy Thanksgiving!

This is what Myles looks like on the changing table when he stretches!

Myles Reaches for...Everything



"Hey there"




Myles loves his "SmithAldridge" quilt (courtesy of the talented Ms Liza Mae.) He's so interested in the letters that I can never get him to look up while on the quilt. Instead, he "walks" the boppy towards the letters to get closer & reach for them.



Usually Myles doesn't give a crap about this peacock toy that hangs from his carrier. And if we hang it from the top, he yells at it. However, a few days ago, he made friends with Mr. Peacock and now will reach for his wings on our walks & outings.

Myles has Tummy Time

Myles is 11 weeks old today - woo hoo! He is getting so big - around 14lbs now. He has also (keep your fingers crossed, knock on wood, kiss the rabbit's foot) been waking only once during the night. This is a new development, so don't jinx it!



Tummy Time!

Myles Flynn, Ladies Man


Myles attended a Leonhardt "Steelers Sunday" on, well, Monday. Although he caught a bit of the game, he spent most of the time being entertained by the ladies. 

Lil' Lilly Leonhardt loves to dote on Myles

The Kid Stays in the Picture

Here are two little videos of Myles smiling & being silly. Well, I'm being silly, he's smiling. It was one 2 mn video, but apparently that's too long to "send" to myself, so now they are two 1mn videos. Enjoy!

Myles, Good Citizen

Myles performed his civic duty today & VOTED! 4 years ago, we took Tupelo with us to vote. Yet another "trumping" by the baby. 

Milked Mommy, check; pooped my pants, check; VOTED, check! Napped, nope, not gonna happen.

Myles Week 9

 Myles Meets Ms Kelly, Parties with Isobel 
& Visits Dad at Work
Someone needs a nap


My best friend Kelly met Myles for the first time. A HUGE help, when Kelly wasn't doting on Myles, she was doting on big sister Tupelo! Love our Kel-bel! 

Myles attended his first birthday party - Miss Isobel Williams's 1st Birthday Brunch! 



Partying takes a lot outta the little man




Myles visited Greg at the ranch for the first time. A happy boy being toted by dad, he was oblivious to the animals around him and only reacted to the cool desert wind.

Bam Bam meets Myles...thinks he looks delicious!

Myles - 2 Months Old

MYLES
2 Months Old
12 lbs 4 oz
23 1/2 inches




Myles had his 2 month check up today which included his first round of vaccines. The doc gave them to him in his cute little butt cheeks - he never saw 'em coming, literally. Our little man handled them like a champ!




Daddy & Myles link telepathically

Myles knows his Dad is a funny Dad.

He still gives sweet "sleep smiles" too!

Working on that big baby brain.
"Have you read this one? Don't tell me how it ends."
MYLES BOOMBA YE!
