My Miles

Here are some more pictures of my sweet little Miles. He's doing very well in every way; he figured out the nursing thing right away and has been loving it ever since; he sleeps almost always and when he's awake, he's trying really hard to focus on things and loves to squeak. It's fun to have a baby again. :)

His last night in the hospital

Miles burrito. He's more like a taquito.

This is what he looks like today, 4 days old.

As for me, I'm working on standing up straight and getting off the pain medication. My mom is very good at getting me to take naps.

Audrey and Parker are living up the last few days of summer; school starts next week! I'm so excited for Audrey, but sad realizing just how much she'll be gone. Kindergarten here is quite brutal, 8-3 five days a week. I'm sure she'll be fine, but I'm worried Parker's going to miss her like crazy. He'll be in school 2 days a week, which is very exciting for him! More later, it's naptime.

I'm so glad you're back. Miles looks perfect. I'm glad he's nursing well and sleeping and that your mom is there to help you sleep. Enjoy that sweet new baby!

He is so darling Leslie... I hear ya about standing up straight... that put a very vivid mental picture in my mind. I'm sure he is a little taquito... a cute little 6 lb. taquito. Can't wait to see him! Our babies were little squeakers too... so cute... David loved to call them "squeeky mouse"

What a sweetheart! HIs little expression in the top photo is so typical Neal! It is so funny how these things are genetic.

he is such a little man - such intelligence in his eyes - how fun it will be to watch him grow! my favorite is the taquito photo - just wanna eat him up!

Rachel said...

Yummy taquito! People in Spain would say to cute babies "Que te como!"--which translates to "I could just eat you up!" He looks good enough to eat!

I had a REALLY hard time when Savannah started full day school. I felt like I was missing so much! She will love it, though. Miles looks so sweet and teeny. They grow up way too fast!

Judy said...

Leslie and Neal- He is BEAUTIFUL!
Tell Audrey good luck with school. I am sure she will be exhausted inteh beginning... it takes a little getting used to. But she will have a great time!

We love baby burritos. Miles is probably the best burrito that we can and ever will be able to have. Take care Leslie and say hello to your other beautiful children who we love so much. Don't forget to also say hello to Neal for us and tell him that Guggle is taking the DAT on Aug. 29.

Love you lots,
