The bump says bump

Milo, formerly known as The Bump, sure has come a long way. This video was taken this past summer (late July) in Seattle.

Milo has always liked lemons. He’ll suck on a wedge of lemon and then grimace and squint like a walnut. Laugh. And repeat. Here are some of my favorite lemon images from the summer:

Dancing like a rock star in Portland, OR

since my last post …

ok, the guilt is finally starting to overwhelm me

milo has hit so many milestones and had so many great moments in the last 4 months that I’m frankly overwhelmed by the prospects of chronicling it adequately here… but brick by brick here we go

as i type i’m cleaning up pictures, organizing videos and i promise to start delivering at least a couple of posts a week until i’m caught up

to hold your attention until the first installment you can read about our time bonding with cousins in Napa Valley, watch milo rocking out at a crib dance party in Seattle, or learn how to make a compost bin in Connecticut

more soon.

weight: 22 pounds 13 ounces … 75th percentile
head: 19 inches … 90th percentile

Here are a couple of snaps from Milo’s 1st birthday party in Prospect Park. Rachel and I both managed to forgot to take pictures – so we’re in the process of collecting them from various guests. We had a beautiful warm day with about 9-10 of Milo’s friends and their parents, 2 grandparents, 2 cousins and 1 great-grandparent … not too shabby!

My new favorite picture – Milo and with his new best friend. Milo’s mouth was open like this for pretty much the entire afternoon!
