Sea Turtles

Our friend Andy took us to see the sea turtles he works with

Miles really enjoyed getting to see them up close


These are all pretty young (less than a year)


They float more than dive when they are little

There were over 100 at this single facility


There are also a number of larger ones that are 3-5 years old
Thanks Andy!

Going...

Miles loves sitting with the dogs in their closet


He got his own adirondack chair


...and he still smiles all the time


Watching a movie on his couch


He also discovered standing in the corner


He wasn't in trouble, he actually enjoys it


Miles also tried Wii Snowboarding for the 1st time


Snowboarding in a diaper

Super Fan Auntie Sica

Easter & More!

A bedtime snack turns into bath time

...what? it wasn't me...


Plaid twins


the 3 amigos in Miles' tent


For Easter we took Miles to a petting zoo at Moody Gardens


He's really liked "brown goats" lately


Looking at all the animals (see the turtle too)


He'd never seen a horse his size


Quite a face he's making


...and the Easter egg hunt (with Squirt)


We put his snacks in the eggs


and Squirt helped him the whole time


Everybody got involved and the older egg hunters
also found Diet Cokes hidden in the backyard!
