The bite, The orgin of "Miles did-it."

Ouch, this was Miles way of working out a fight with Eli :( When asked what happened Eli said for the first time "Miles did-it." This phrase has become a favorite of Eli and is used often.

A quick dip on the other side of Florida

We drove to Ft. Lauderdale one afternoon and it was hot! I guess that is no surprise. The boys were able to take off their shirts and go for a swim. Good thing dad had his water polo days of training. Doing the egg beater with two boys in the ocean was no small feat.

One of Miles favorite things to do is listen to what dad has on i-tunes and watch our family pictures cycle through the computer.

The second photo is Miles doing his spontaneous version of a cool pose.

In the next two photos Eli found Miles old helmet and wanted it on and then found a box and sat down. I would guess he was pretending he was driving a fast race car.

The last two speak for themselves.


















Notice Lightning McQueen in Eli's hand. IT NEVER LEAVES IT! He swims with it, travels with it, takes it to the park, library, everywhere. He takes baths with it, reads books with it and at the end of each night it goes to bed with him. He's getting really good at doing things one handed.

A few more fishing photos

This is a small stingray without a stinger. Not sure why. Maybe its to young or its a different breed.

I'm not sure what this is in the last photo. I put it in a gallon zip lock bag to examine it. I stepped on it and it felt squishy. Its about the size and overall shape of a flat baseball. This is a view from the top those flaps fanned to slowly propel it in the water. As I touched it or moved it around it inked. Anyone have an ideas what it is?
