Catching Up
Myles has been saying and doing the cutest things lately. He is turning out to be a real trouble-maker. This afternoon we were all playing downstairs and Mason ran upstairs to go potty. Marshall and I didn't notice Myles had followed him until all of a sudden Mason yells "aughhh!!!!! Myles stole my underwear" and Myles came running down the stairs as fast as he could laughing hysterically carrying Mason's Thomas underwear. He sat down in the corner and tried putting it on over his shorts (finally getting a little help from his daddy) and then when Mason came downstairs sans underwear, Myles just laughed and ran away from him. Marshall and I thought it was the funniest thing ever.
He is growing so fast and talks a lot. Mason I can understand everything he says perfectly, but for some reason people other than his mother and brother don't get it. Yesterday he opened the pantry doors, pulled out a brownie mix, did the sign for eat and said "eat. . .this. . .please". He kept carrying the box around and asking for brownies until I could distract him with a cookie. He is really good at saying "please" and "thank-you" and always needs a turn to say the prayer after someone else says it.
Myles loves his cousin Elaine who is living with us. They give each other kisses a million times a day, and when Myles is done his food he goes over to Elaine's chair and helps her finish hers. What a helpful cousin!
On Pioneer Day (July 24th) we were planning an uneventful day. Marshall had to work, so we just hung around the house. But that morning our neighbor invited us to a spur-of-the-moment Pioneer Day bbq at her house that evening. Almost the entire street showed up and after the bbq we lit fireworks on the street. Luckily, Mason wasn't nearly as afraid of them this time.
