Milo and Dave chat

Here's Milo learning about matching pajamas, water treatment facilities, and country music. Dave is no doubt absorbing the finer points of diaper soiling and parent waking.

Notice that Dave has more hair in that little triangle of chest than Milo has on his head.

It's a bird, it's a plane, it's ...

Super Milo!
Milo and I share a love for this particular maneuver. I think it started when he was having painful gas; they tell you that putting pressure on the tummy helps. Now, however, it's more about flying around in a leisurely manner and saving damsels (Mommies) in distress. It's even got a little theme song.

Here he comes to save the day ...

Milo bares some of it

We don't spend a lot of time hanging out with an undressed Milo - we worry that he'll get cold, or poop on us - but it's nice to have some semi-naked time every once in a while so we can see what he looks like under his onesies. It turns out, he looks a bit smaller, pinker, and nipplier.

Curses! Foiled again

So, Milo's crafty plan to prevent his parents from getting sleep at night depends heavily on his getting sleep at other times, so he has plenty of energy at 2 AM.

His parents, however, are no slouches at this game, so we try to prevent him from getting too much sleep during the day.

Below is such an attempt. It was a bit on the dorky side. And an utter failure.

More visits

Recently, we've had visits from a trio of expert baby whisperers who came to pay homage to Milo.

He's quite the well-dressed man about the house.

Still working on the concept

Milo is supposed to get regular tummy time so he can work on his head-raising muscles or something. He's actually OK at that, but he clearly isn't working on it in this picture. Maybe he loves the letter F, or things that begin with it? Flamingos!

This is also a good picture for examining his rapidly advancing baldness. It's not like he had a whole lot of hair to begin with, but his hairline has been progressing in the wrong direction for a couple of weeks now.

I guess his father has enough for two.

Mothers on Mothers' Day

Happy Day, mothers!

Just the facts, ma'am

Some have alleged that Milo looks like his cousin and uncle did when they were babes.
The evidence:

First bottle (not counting those other bottles)

So, we've been told that, if we plan on bottle feeding him at all, he needs to get acquainted with the bottle now, otherwise he might not take it later.

As you can see, he's pretty excited about the whole thing. Maybe he's worried about milk dripping onto his stylin' outfit.

The boy's hobbies

Head-sitting and mommy-rocking.
