Peace out, bra


Funny story to share...
A while back, Derek taught Miles to say "Peace out, bra" while making a peace sign with his fingers.

Yesterday when I dropped Miles off at daycare, I told Layla (his teacher) that there is a great cartoon on Nickelodeon called "Ni Hao, Kai-lan" which teaches Chinese language and culture.

Miles said to Layla "Ni Hao!" which means hello.

Layla said "I think Miles knows how to say the number two in Chinese."

I said "Really? I don't think he knows how to say that."

Layla said "Well, he makes the number two with his fingers and says something."

And then it dawned on me that he is probably saying "Peace out, bra" and Layla wasn't sure what he was saying and thought maybe it was Chinese.

So, I asked her "Does he say Peace out, bra, she said yes!" LOL.

Pretty funny.

Little Emperor's

We played dress up today. We are wearing our Chinese outfits that Jo Gun (Uncle Mike) gave us.
Xie xie.

Success!

Here's a fun video of Oliver trying to roll over... third time's a charm! And, he sure likes to chew on his hands!

Mmmmm.... rice cereal


Since Oliver's 4-month birthday is tomorrow, I decided to start him on rice cereal today. His doctor gave me the go ahead to start rice cereal a while ago, as it can help with acid reflux, but I wanted to wait until he was closer to 4 months. He didn't quite have the tongue coordination down, but I think it will only be a matter of days for him to figure it out. Oliver really seems interested in what we are eating, so I have a feeling he will like eating something other than his gross formula. I really enjoyed starting Miles on solids and I loved making his food myself... I just hope I can find the time to do the same for Oliver. :)

Mommy and Miles go to Denver

Miles and I took our first trip solo together to visit my family in Colorado last weekend. Miles was a trooper - considering we flew in super late on Friday night, he caught a cold, and was out of his element. We had a fun time celebrating Uncle Chris' 40th birthday and it even snowed for us while we were there. Miles and I shared a bed and he is not an easy person to sleep with... he is a wiggle worm and a bed hog. And, he doesn't lay the correct way in bed! :)
