Miles(tones)

The second child syndrome is a strange phenomenon.  I don't know if it's just that so much energy is expended unnecessarily worrying about the first child, then when .0001% of all the horrible things you imagined could have happened actually do, you kinda let things slide with the second.  Or maybe it's that you are more mature as an adult and parent, more secure in your parenting style and what you think will be best for the kid.  Whatever the reasons, this boy is M E L L O W.  He likes nothing more than to sit outside on a blanket or carpet, and just chill.  Hard.  This works out really well for me, since I also love to chill, unfortunately, he still needs to be in very close proximity to me or Mommy to feel OK, but I can deal with that. 

Miles in his 8th month, as referenced before, has started scooting.  He has begun to tell physical jokes, bending his head in weird ways when he knows it makes people laugh, and trying to surprise us with shrill squeals.  His fashion sense is also maturing significantly, as can be seen in this photo: 



The bottom line is, if you want a really cool dude to chill with, maybe eat a little mashed up rice and beans, or sip on some milk,
Miles is your man.
