Myles, 7 Months Old


Our little Myles Flynn is 7 months old & growing big & strong. His personality is big & strong as well. He's developed a funny little sense of humor that keeps Greg & me guessing. Not one for a cheap laugh, Myles stares at us blankly when we constantly try the same trick to get him to giggle. Instead, he laughs hysterically when the dog runs by, when we remove his arms from a long sleeve shirt & lately, when Greg burps. He'll be telling us to pull his finger any day now. Ahh, boys. 

So far (knock on wood) Myles is a great eater! We moved on from single ingredient purees to items a bit "chunkier" & with multi-ingredients. Recently he ate homemade lentils made with shallot, garlic, marjoram & grilled Granny Smith apple. Though, nothing makes him happier than those full fat YoBaby yogurts, duh. 

Myles loves reading. Or rather, being read to. He pays attention to each page & has begun to "pet" each page we read as I point to what we're reading. Aside from loving to read books, he also loves to eat them. He loves music & listens to it daily. Although we sing normal kiddie music, Greg has made a Myles playlist aptly titled "The MisEduction of Myles Flynn." And nothing gets him ready for a nap like "The Carpenter" by The Avett Brothers (one of my personal faves.) 

Myles coos & babbles constantly...and also makes it known when he dislikes something, anything, everything. He also gives great hugs & kisses! He hugs us all the time and when he kisses me, he grabs both sides of my face to pull me closer...though, I'm pretty sure he's just trying to eat my face off. 

...and is it just Greg & me or is Myles's hair turning...reddish?
Aww, check out those little teeth!
Although it is April 1st, all of the above is true to the best of my knowledge.
