I am 2 Years Old!

Today, I turned two! I am busy partying right now, more photos to come soon. - Miles

Friends!

Last weekend, the Gorley's came up for a visit. I had a great time playing with Emmy and Willie. We played soccer, rolled in my hooptie on the front lawn, picked apricots, and enjoyed a pizza dinner. The next day we went to the Natural History Museum and saw the dinosaurs and live butterflies! I learned to smell the flowers (not pick them), and look at the butterflies (not squish them).

We Jam.

Daddy-O and I have a common appreciation for music. He plays songs with melody and rhythm. And while I can get behind that, for the most part, I am really more of a key pounding animal. To each their own.

Happy Father's Day!

My dad is pretty cool. He is a really funny guy. But he's also really loving and generous with me. He likes to show me new cool things, like how to take the pit out of a cherry and how to pick red strawberries (rather than green ones). I love it when he sings to me and writes songs for me - like my favorite, "Crocks With No Socks." Happy fathers day dad - M.

Jump House!

My school had their annual "graduation" party a couple weeks ago. I got to go in my very first bounce house. Dude. These are amazing! Nevermind the fact that I got really, really sick about 7-10 days later (the normal incubation period for your standard virus), it was totally worth it. This guy with me is my best buddy Ewan, we are two peas in a pod. And the nice lady is Ms. Brandi, I adore her!

I like water

A lot.

Yosemite!

Last weekend we went to Yosemite National Park with some friends. We hiked, climbed rocks, and enjoyed waterfalls. I got to meet some deer, which I frequently call "beer" because I get confused when such similar terms are thrown around with such frequency. I can't wait to go back!

California Kid

Grandma Cici makes THE BEST artichokes and aoli - and yes, I can say "artichokes and aoli." I mean you learn to say things that are this delicious quite easily.

My Future is Very Bright.

Spring!

It's springtime again. And I would like to remind you all, as you prepare your beds for seeds and starters, that every bountiful garden needs a few well-made mud patties. I know a guy.

Happy Easter, Everyone!

"Egg!" I have been hunting eggs for the past few days, and I have to say that I'm getting pretty good at it. We had a fun weekend of warm weather and sunshine in Santa Barbara. Happy spring and may health and happiness abound!

My Buddies

I have made some pretty good friends at school. This is my buddy Ewan. We like to high-five and then hug. We are manly, but also sensitive.

Meet Whalon

To keep me from hitting my head on the faucet, which I am prone to do, my mom and dad bought this cover we call "Whalon the Whale." Lately, I have been obsessed with water in all forms: waterfalls, water pouring, water on the floor, water to drink. All I know is there is some talk in this house about the water bill lately....

Dancing Feet!

Dad and I squeezed in a quick jam session before bed tonight.

Big Books

Every now and then I grow tired of my picture books, and I go to my parents bookshelf for some literary entertainment. It's a Brave New World, indeed.

"Wash a hand!"

My favorite activity lately is to "wash a hand" at the sink while standing on my cool step-stool. I'm kind of a faker though, because I never actually wash my hands, not even "a hand." All I do is pour water back and forth and back and forth for 45 minutes and run up my parents water bill.

Mama and Bop-Bop do a special walk for Ci-Ci

Last weekend, mama and Bop-Bop braved the rain in Santa Barbara to participate in a walk for breast cancer research. 100% of the money raised went to benefit the Cancer Center of Santa Barbara, where Grandma Ci-Ci is getting her breast cancer treated. Mom was the highest individual fundraiser, raising over $4,000 for the cause. She was even featured on the local news and in the newspaper. She's a pretty big deal lately, just ask her...

I know some things.

My vocabulary has been blowing-up lately. One day it's "wawa", the next it's "water." Check out a few of my current favorite words.

Beach Day

I have really only been around for a few seasons, but that is enough to know that it is unseasonably warm lately. We took advantage of the beautiful weather with a trip to the beach this afternoon to play in the sand and chase birds. I am super into pouring stuff into things; water, marbles, rocks, dirt and sand will all do the trick.

My New Look

I prefer to wear fuzzy hats, in the buff, on top of modern furniture. It's the Timpany in my blood.
