I've always loved October...

We had a great visit to Arkansas last weeked to visit my family.  The car ride went smoothly until about 20 minutes outside of Clarksville.  These last minutes could be a hit on You Tube if they were recorded...we sang, and cheered, and clapped our little hearts out to keep him happy.  Needless to say we were delighted to get out of the car and hand Miles to his eager grandparents! 

It is as if he knew what was coming...

But the trip was worth it! We had a successful garage sale with mom on Saturday, Miles met his great-Papa, we played and watched a little football, and the weather couldn't have been more perfect!  The picture below just doesn't capture the beauty of the view.  Did I appreciate this when I woke up to it every day?

Miles started getting a little stuffy nose on the trip and it started to affect his sleeping at night.  We were all a little tired this week...

But the week was overall fun and we got to see some friends that have moved away and help Landon celebrate his birthday at the Wedge Pizzaria.  It was our first 'night' outing and Miles did great (for a baby!) but let us know when he was ready to go home!!

This week also included a mommy and me yoga class, a trip for flowers and pumpkins, and Daddy completing his Anesthesia rotation on Wednesday and having a four day weekend!  Developmentally, this week Miles has started using his arms and legs much more (we are convinced he is Olympics bound!), holding his head up freakishly well, and starting to enjoy tummy time.  Oh, and we also caved in to the pacifier.  See below at the results...

I do wash those pajamas I swear...I just really like them!

Have a great week! We are now in what we like to refer to as 'birthday month' here at the Smith household.  Let the fun continue as I turn 29...again! Love you all!
