For Uncles Evan and Quinten

"Ma Ma"

Mylo said his first word. Actually it was sounds but once they were combined they made the word, "Ma Ma". I'm so glad I got that Reading Masters! His other first word is "Uh Oh". Mylo tried Peas today and seemed to enjoy the bland "greeness" of it all. His first fruit was applesauce. He makes the sourest face. He still only has 2 teeth and we haven't crawled yet but we are making progress.

Happy 6 Month Birthday, Mylo!

Dear Mylo,
I fell in love with you! I knew i loved you before but even more so now. You reach for me, pull my hair and give me the slimiest kisses. I will give you all the statistics now: You weigh 18 lbs and 6 oz with 27 and 3/4 inches tall. You have two teeth (bottom center). You've tried sweet potatoes and carrots, your favorite is carrots. You can sit up by yourself. You chew on your toes when i change your diaper. When you are teething, you chew on a wet wash cloth. You might have said your first word "red" but i didn't hear it so it doesn't count (Quinten). You laugh when Daddy hangs you upside down by your ankles, sounds bad but you really do laugh and giggle as the blood rushes to your cheeks. You laugh anytime Daddy is in the room as long as you aren't tired. You are starting to cry when i leave the room, which makes it hard. I hold you all the time and won't let anyone near you because i miss you so much during the school day. Today you are getting your 6 month shots. You don't sleep through the night and last night you had a stomach ache and mommy only got 3 hours of sleep. We are still working with crawling. You hold your head up and sit on your knees but you have no desire to move. You know we will bring you any toy you want eventually. Mylo, please be patient with me as i adjust to having a new job and having you. I probably lose my patience sooner than i should, but i am just so tired all the time. I know it's not fair to you but i will be better soon. I love you! See you tonight! Mom
