This past week flew by again! I wonder when things will slow down. Tuesday Mommy picked me up from day care early so we could visit at her office again! I got to meet Michael for the first time. He helps out in the office a few days a week. I also got to play with Rosemarie, Kathy W. and Kathy S. I talked to Emily, Randy, Brian, Don and Robin too. I missed Linda though, she left before I came.
Wednesday was a special day. Mommy and Daddy went out by themselves. I got to stay home and Luci came over to play with me. We had lots of fun. We got to go to the basement because it was storming outside. Mommy was sending messages to Luci on the phone, I know that because Luci kept giggling after reading some of them. I was a good boy and went to bed at 8 pm. I slept until 5:30 in the morning! This has become a habit for me.
On Thursday, Mommy wound up going to a meeting at work. I hung out with Daddy. He and I like to play with my computer that lights up and plays songs. It's one of my favorite toys. I went to bed for Daddy right on time too.
On Friday, Mommy had some special time for herself. She came home later than usual and then Molly came over! Mommy made spaghetti and I tried to eat some of her food. Since I can eat my own food now, my #2's have been changing a lot. Mommy says they STINK! I don't think they smell bad, no worse than her's do. Mommy freaked out with one I had on Friday. She said it looked funny and made Daddy and Molly look at it too. I've poo'd more this weekend than I ever have it seems.
Saturday Mommy had to work in the morning, so I made sure I got her up on time. I'd hate for her to be late. She left me with Daddy, and I took a nap with him until about 9 am. Mommy didn't get home until almost 1 pm and I was hungry then took a 2 hour nap. Then Mommy fed me again and we met Molly at the pool! It was lots of fun. We sat in the bubbly water and I got to lean over the side and splash the water at the people in the round things. Mommy said on a day it's not so sunny we could go in the lazy river, but it was too sunny.
After we went to the pool, Mommy took me over to Grandma Katy's. Her and Daddy sneaked off to a movie. I got to see Aunt Carol and Thomas. Grandma and Grandpa fed me some applesauce for the first time. I liked it a lot! I got to fall asleep at their house. Today we slept in, since I didn't fall asleep at Grandma's until 9, I slept until 6 am! Mommy was very happy.
We got to go on a car trip today. We went to the Beef House after a stop at a big red building. I got to see Lily! We played for a little while before we left. I took a tap in the car the whole way there, and the whole way home...that makes car rides go quick. I suggest it for everyone but the driver.

Did you know?
My mommy can hold me and balance on one foot to take her sock of with out falling down.
I sit up by myself, but I'll fall over eventually.
I like to stand with my hands on the back of the couch.
I like applesauce!!!
I'm starting to giggle, it's quite cute, if I do say so myself.

Happy Daddy Day!
Today was a big day. The day for Daddies. I love my Daddy. He knows just how to rock me. He and I watch drag racing on TV. I'm his buddy.
This was another crazy week. Last Sunday was very lazy day. I got to see Erin twice this week! She came to visit to use the internet. She gets her own internet on Wednesday, I hope she'll still come to visit after. She hung out with Mommy and me while Daddy went to visit Aunt JohAnna.
On Tuesday, I hung out with Daddy because Mommy worked late. I'm getting better at going to sleep with out Mommy. I got to eat my beloved carrots again this week at Grandma Katy's. We stopped by there so Daddy could borrow a tool from Grandpa Carl. Oh carrots are my favorite!!
On Friday night I went to the pool again! This time Molly came with us. We were playing in the water. Mommy said I was a tug boat. The sun was really bright so I wore my sunglasses in the pool. When we were done at the pool, we went back home and I was tired. I fell asleep in the car on the way home! Mommy says I should swim every night, maybe I'd go to bed sooner.
Saturday was a busy day. Mommy, Daddy and I went to Peoria. We stopped to visit Dorothy! We were playing, she helped me master my giggling skills. I was pretty wound up. She is a funny lady. After Dorothy's we went to a store so Mommy and Daddy could buy some clothes. We went from there to Wing Stop on the other side of town and Mommy fed me while Daddy went to the Schnucks nearby to get some Caffeine Free Diet Dr. Pepper for him and Mommy. Mommy hadn't had any since she brought me home from the hospital.
We stopped for gas on the way home in Morton. I was NOT a happy person. I wanted more food and someone to hold me. But NO, Mommy kept on driving. So I showed them, I cried ALL the way from Morton to Carlock (about 20 miles). See, mess with me and I'll show you who's boss. I finally fell asleep and slept from Carlock until we got home.
Grandpa Carl was there with Grandma Katy. He was going to a baseball game with Mommy and Daddy. I guess it was 4-H night. Molly came over and we played while they were gone. Molly read me a new book from Aunt Chris.
Today is Daddy's day. Mommy and I let Daddy sleep in. Then we gave him the card I picked out. He liked it a lot. After that we went to Aunt Mary's and I ate some pears again, they didn't taste as bad as last time. I think it helped because Mommy thickened them up with rice. Thomas was there, he was playing in Hailey's little pool. I forgot my swim trunks, so I didn't swim. It was sure hot enough though. I took a nap while I was there, between playing with Aunt Carol, Uncle Tim, Grandma and Aunt Chris.
When we got done at Aunt Mary's we went to Grandma Karen's. We got to see their new deck. Grandma Karen told Mommy she wants to come swim with us. I can't wait! Aunt JohAnna was playing with me, and Grace was telling me stories. Great Aunt Barb and Uncle Phil were there too. We came home early because I was exhausted! So many people love me, it's hard to keep up.
Happy Daddy Day to all the Daddies everywhere!
I've recently received some cool items from people who love me. I got two quilts. One is from a friend that Mommy works with. Her mother made a quilt. I also got a quilt from Great Aunt Linda. Mommy likes it a lot because it has sheepies on it. Mommy says she's going to take some photos of me with them, but hasn't had the chance to do it yet. Stay tuned.

Tales from the Bumbo, my first date and and the Pool too!
My life is changing slowly. I've been introduced to this new thing, and now I eat three ways. I've mastered eating with Mommy, and with the thing they call the bottle too.
But this new way is similar to how Mommy and Daddy eat. You get to hold something in your hand. Well, at least every time I tried to when Mommy did it the first time I ended up with wet stuff on my face. It didn't really taste like much either. But, she kept giving it to me and so I ate it.
A week or so after I had the tasteless stuff I was introduced to the bright "yummy yummy carrots." They were yummy! I would eat them every day if I could. Mommy gave me them about every other day. Each time she gave them to me, I slept ALL night. That was my thank you to her for giving them to me.
I love carrots so much that I would get excited when I got them! Mommy would give me more sometimes. But one time, she thought I was still hungry, and she made some of that other stuff...it has no flavor like the yummy yummy carrots. I told her " Do not tease me with this tasteless stuff after the sweet sweetness of carrots." Mommy posted it on her Facebook status, and she got lots of comments.
I even wrote a poem about carrots...
Ode to the Carrot
by
Myles
Oh carrot you are so sweet
You really make me want to eat
You slurp and slime your way to my tummy
Reaffirming that solid food is yummy
No matter where you come from
When I eat you, I will sing and smile and hum
Oh Carrots, oh carrots how I love you
Please say you love me too!
Don't you just feel better now? I sure do! But then that Mommy of mine she played me for a fool. She traded out those carrots for something new. Erin gave them to me first. I think that should have been a clue something was different. Erin did a great job feeding me, but I wasn't a fan of the pears. They weren't yummy...they were yucky. I managed to swallow most of them, but I made some pretty good faces to show my disapproval. I didn't sleep all night after those pears either. Mommy almost got the hint because the next time she tried them on me, she mixed some of that tasteless stuff with them. All that did was combine two things that don't taste great into a new thing that doesn't taste great. I ate as much as I could but lost interest very quickly.
Tonight I had the privilege of trying "yummy, yummy Green Beans". Surprisingly they aren't that bad. Carrots they are not, but I think I like them.
I had a date this week. I know I know, Lily and Klohe if you're reading this we're still cool right? Mommy's friend Nancy wanted to see me, and so we hung out at our house after day care on Wednesday. It was fun, she was playing with me the whole time! She said she'd see me again at the end of the month. Not sure when that is but it sounds like she won't be gone forever.
But last night, last night was very different. We went to the "pool." We met up with Aunt Mary and Hailey and went to State Farm park. It was a really cool place. They have a big building you walk through to get to the water. Once we all got our clothes changed we went outside. It was pretty windy Mommy was worried I would get cold. I didn't until the end. Mommy put me in the water and let me stand up. The water was pretty cold! But after a few minutes it didn't seem as cold anymore. Then I sat in a chair that was in the water so Mommy could take pictures of me.
After that we went to the BIG pool with two slides. Mommy said I'm not big enough to go down those yet. Well, we played in the water and probably a little to much. I kept spitting up little bits at a time so Mommy said I was done. Most of it went on my onsie I was wearing. Then Mommy wrapped me in a towel. I was exhausted. Megan and Lily and their parents got to the pool just about the time I was done. So I got to sit on Lily's dad's lap (Mike) and I took a nap. After I woke up and Megan and Hailey were done playing in the water we went to the snack shop to eat dinner. Mommy had the worst hamburger ever. She took 3 bites and that was it. I got a good snack before we went home to see Daddy. He'd worked late and then visited Grandpa Carl for a while about a tool for his car. I woke up Mommy three times because I didn't eat any carrots before bed.
I was all smiles today when I went with Mommy to a work meeting. I got to meet Betsy, Dakota and Michaela. Dakota is my buddy. He is silly. Betsy played with me while Dakota and Michaela had a meeting about 4-H. Mommy keeps trying to explain what she does and I just don't get it. I guess I have lots of time to figure it out. She keeps mentioning this thing called a fair. I wonder what that will be like...

Sleep on...
I feel like I've slept through the past week. It all started on Monday when Mommy and Daddy didn't go to work. I thought they were taking me to see Dawn, but no, we went to breakfast.
Things got back to normal on Tuesday...except I was real hungry when I got home from Dawn's. Mommy fed me and then I ate a 6 oz bottle of formula. Wow, was that filling. I slept from 7:30 - 11. Then I ate again and went right back to sleep. Mommy was thankful that I slept better than I did on Monday. I think it was because I was just exhausted from having too many things to do.
Wednesday I slept again from 7:30 to 1:30. Mommy couldn't believe it! She did however get a little sad because she didn't get to play with me very much after work. I did the same thing on Friday and Saturday nights too. Mommy and Daddy think I'm going through a growth spurt.
On Saturday I got to go see Grandma Katy while Mommy and Daddy helped Erin move into her condo. I guess she had some stuff in our basement. Erin and her Mom went with Mommy and me to go to Grandma's. Mommy and Daddy came back a few hours later with Luci, Molly and Erin. They all ate pizza and had ice cream.
While I was at Grandma's I showed her how I roll over. She thought that was very cool. She even called Mommy on the phone to tell her about it. She sang to me and we played the whole time, except when I had a bottle. I took a short nap, but I couldn't sleep. I was too excited.
We got home from Grandma's around 6 pm and Mommy fed me again and I fell asleep at 6:30 and slept until 11 pm. Then I woke up Mommy at 1 and 3. We got up for the day at 7 am. I played in my saucier. I love it. I've figured out how all of the things work. Mommy gave me a bath and took my five month pictures.
Then I was tired so I took a 2 hour nap. Daddy was working on his car this afternoon, and I got to hang out with Mommy outside under one of the trees she was trimming. I was playing with my car keys. Daddy says I need to practice now so I can drive when I get older. Grandpa Ed stopped by to borrow something from Daddy. He says I'm getting big!
Mommy got this new bath tub for me. I really like it! I taught my self how to splash! I can stand up in it. Mommy has always got a hand close by when I'm standing or sitting. I could play in the tub all day! Check out my photos and videos.
Last night I slept from 8:30-4:45. It felt good to sleep that long in one stretch. Mommy liked it because she didn't have to get up to feed me. I wonder how I'll sleep tonight...
