His top two teeth are just barely poking through the gums. It has been a loooong process for those to come in. Hopefully, now that they've broken through the skin, he'll be in less pain and be less fussy. He is back to putting himself to sleep at night and sleeping all night, so I am very grateful for that.

We celebrated Miles' first Thanksgiving at home with just the 5 of us. It was a really nice, relaxing day. Miles LOVED the turkey and was eating it by the fistful. He loves to feed himself and is doing really well with it. Meat is probably his favorite thing to eat, followed by puffs and Cheerios. He still doesn't really like anything that's cold. He doesn't drink from a sippy cup yet, but I also haven't really worked too hard to teach him that. At this point, I'll probably just wait until he stops drinking formula to work on it.

He says "Mama" but still doesn't say "Dada". When Kory tries to get him to say it, he says "Baba" every time. He learned how to wave this month and he loves to shake his head, especially if you say "No No Miles".

It's a good thing we put the baby locks back on because he's really interested in opening cabinets and drawers. He's smashed his poor little fingers SO many times in the past couple weeks, but I think he's figuring it out now. There's been several times I haven't been able to find him and he's crawled into a closet or behind the bathroom door. 

Miles stood up unassisted once but hasn't tried it again. He is pretty content to crawl and doesn't seem too anxious to walk, which I'm perfectly fine with! He's happy to play in his room by himself and will eventually come crawling to find the rest of us. I can definitely see him quickly becoming more toddler and less baby, which is hard to believe. Although, it feels like a LONG time ago that I was pregnant and had a newborn. Time is weird, especially when it comes to having kids.
