21 months and counting!

Hi everybody! If you don't already know, yesterday was a very important day for me. I turned 21 months old which puts me 1 month closer to my 2nd birthday. I have been super busy since my last post.

The only thing that slowed me down a bit was my teeth. I have about 8 that are all trying to come in at the same time. Boy, has that been painful. Mommy and Daddy have tried to be extra patient with me during my cranky times. If only I could have bought stock in Ibuprofen and Orajel, I'd be a rich kid by now! Thankfully, 3 of them have already come through and I seem to be getting a temporary reprieve from the really bad pain.

Last month I got to help Mommy and Daddy celebrate lots of special days. First, Mommy had a birthday. Then we got to celebrate Happy Mommy's Day. And then it was Daddy's turn for Happy Daddy's Day. Coming up this month is Daddy's birthday. Adults sure do get to celebrate lots of days!

Last month we also had another family reunion. Only this time it was Papa's side of the family and it was here in Charlotte. I got to meet lots of new family members. There were lots of kids to play with too.

In the past 2 weeks I have gone to my first funeral and first wedding. We got to spend a week in Goldsboro because my great-great-aunt died. Mommy & Daddy said that I acted like a big boy at the funeral. Stymie even got to come and hang out with us (Goldsboro not the funeral). I got to spend lots of time with my cousins. Daddy even let me visit Uncle Danny at Krispy Kreme where I got to eat my 1st donut. I loved it even though Mommy made sure it didn't have any sugary glaze on it.

Then we had to go to Atlanta because Daddy was in a wedding. I don't want to brag but I was the life of the reception. I was a DANCING MACHINE!!! Everyone says that I must get that from Mommy because Daddy never dances. Pictures are coming soon.

Those of you on Facebook know that I briefly got to experience life forward-facing in the car. But on the way to Atlanta, Mommy and Daddy turned me back around. I was being too much of a busy-body to fall asleep. So I am back facing the rear again (for now). But don't worry, it really doesn't bother me at all. ;-)

Well Daddy and I are about to head outside for a few minutes. So I will have to chat with you later.

Love, Mr. Miles
