Yawp!

Myles is 5 months old and is the joy of our lives. Right now he seems to be entering a whole new world of "babyness." Some of the old favorites are still guaranteed to bring joy, but now he seems anxious to learn as fast as he can, and is easily frustrated by those tasks still outside his reach.

He longs to be able to manipulate his blocks, to stack his stacker and to crawl like the others. He will yell and cry if he can't do what he wants. However, if you try and take him away from the activity or situation he gets really mad and tries to jump out of your arms to get back to those tasks. His intrepid nature makes him a natural for baby swear words. As doting parents we admire the tenacity and passion.

Speaking of reinforcing dubious behaviors. Enjoy this film of Myles giving a long-winded Yawp. Life with him is never boring!

Mr. Myles is very assertive! Maybe he'll be a politician! Love, from Texas.
