Determined

With all the new developments he's going through; physical, mental, and emotional--Miles has been yelling out his frustrations, and making a new face to go with his new feelings. I love this new face! It's his look of determination.



He's so determined to get to any object. While I'm feeding him, he'll try to grab the spoon or bowl out of my hands. And the whole time, he'll purse his lips together and shake his arms quickly.



He gets frustrated, draggin his body around on the floor and yells for us to help him stand on his feet. He gets all excited when he's finally up, bounching non-stop. Today, he actually stood on his own for a few seconds and walked toward Justin a few steps (ofcourse with Justin holding his hands). Realizing what had just happened, Miles smiled and let out a joyful yell. It's not easy, honestly, hearing him yell so much! But I am being as patient as ever.



Another thing he does now as I carry him, passing by our studio, he leans towards the turntables and yells "Oooo! Oooo!" I was pretty amazed by that. I'm not kidding. He loves smacking his heavy hands on the platter and moving the faders, hitting switches. It's amazing how he already knows what we do on the tables and mixer, seeing and hearing us on it often. I will never underestimate Miles' understanding of things!
