Miles at home - the first 2 weeks

I blogged this a long time ago, but forgot to push "publish":

We have loved having a new addition to our home, although it's made life crazier than usual. Every day is a different adventure, as newborns grow and change so quickly. I only had to look at this picture of Miles in the hospital to see that he has already grown.
Miles posing for one of those baby pictures where babies pretend to be different beings other than humans(cabbages, butterflies, rutabagas, weasels):


We are always so thankful for a visit from Grandma. She is pleased as punch with our own 3 terrible twerps:

Peas porridge hot, pea porridge cold, pea porridge in the pot 9 days old. Here is Miles at 9 days, looking like a middle-aged man with a paunch. But at least he's happy about it.


Is it just me, or is there some resemblance here?

okay, so i'm sure this isn't the first time you've been asked this, but i just have to know-- is there some tradition in the morris family that all the men have to have M names? of course, my 7 siblings and i all have M names as well, but that includes the girls as well as the boys.

I love that last picture! And I agree with you about Max and Mom - there is something there.

Congratulations! I didn't even know you wee pregnant:) Another beautiful baby boy.

Hope all is well.

I'm extremely offended that you didn't put any pictures of me holding the baby.

I can't believe I didn't realize that now you have your own version o' th' TTT.
