B'nana and Mylo the Fish

Mylo's first swim since his womb days. I am at a teacher conference at the Waterfront in Morgantown. So, we took a dip in the pool and tomorrow i hope to find some sushi. Banana came to help me with Mylo. This is also his first overnite stay away from Micah. He held and shook his rattle. I think he's ready for maracas.

Almost rolling over!

Mylo is 11 weeks old. He's an avid roller onto his side but we haven't quite mastered the over part. A work in progress. And i'm looking at all my pics of him and we take alot of him lying on his gym. He does move about the house. We go on walks, we just don't leave him on the floor all day but it seems that that is where all the action occurs. Mylo is talking more. I am almost ready to take him to the pool for the first time. It is scary that there is no shade. He will have sunscreen on, a hat and a swim shirt and shorts but he could get burnt. Nobody wants a burnt baby. As for me, I've been working on my classes and going to zumba 4 nights a week. Zumba is wonderful!

Those Fleshy Stubs have a Purpose!!

Mylo discovered the calling of his hands....to hit a duck that jingles. We're so proud!

Wiggles in the Boppy!

Daddy's A Rock Star

Mylo can listen to Micah play for hours or until he gets hungry...either of them. Mylo's new trick is trying to stick his entire fist in his mouth. Mylo is one grading period old (9 weeks) in teacher talk. He has been to Walmart which i hate to admit. But it is better to expose him when he's young and Micah and I are there to guide him. I am taking 6 hours this summer so i get my Masters +30. I am not sure how it is going to work with a baby but he will adjust. I have a conference to go to on June 30-July 1st. It will be Mylo's first overnight in a hotel. We've not been out much recently due to the heat. He generates heat in his car seat so it makes taking walks difficult. He is talking more. He will smile anytime he is in a good mood and not studying his surroundings. On Sundays, I don't get to see him until the very end of church. I feel like i am socializing a puppy but a cute puppy.

Spewing Spawn

Micah and Mylo's widow peaks
So, Mylo had a reaction to one of his shots that involved spewing his entire stomach contents. I felt so bad for him. He, i guess felt better because he went right to sleep. Of course, i pulled all of the vaccine info out again to make sure it was a normal symptom but how could expelling all of your nutrition out of both ends be normal. He's so small, he doesn't have much in reserve.

Happy 2 Month Birthday, Mylo!!

Dear Mylo,
Happy 2 Month Birthday! You weigh 12lbs 6oz. Well let's see, you have slept through the night the last 2 weeks. You still like playing with the toucan, elephant, puppy and monkey. You have rolled over from your back to your side twice. You can hold your head up that would rival the best 4 mo olds. You talk when people talk to you. I don't know if you are complaining about your living environment or your parents. You smile at everyone who will smile first. You have been to: church, chip's house, Clarksburg, Fairmont, Morgantown,and both Grandma's houses. You have even been to Walmart. Today your got your 2mo shots. You did much better than I did. You were easily calmed with the gentle sway and yummy peacemaker. Your father and I have been to a movie (Prince Caspian) which was excellent. Every night i pray for your health, happiness, and courage. Mylo, you are going to do amazing things. Thanks for choosing me to get to be a part of them! Love, Mom
