On November 4, 2008, some big election was going on. But more importantly, I was becoming a big brother. This is a job I take very seriously. And while I still call him my "new brother," it is hard to believe that Maxer has been here a whole year! Happy birthday Max!







I love you.

Trick or Treat!

It's Halloween! Max and I had a big day. We went to the kids carnival at church, then we trick-or-treated on our street. It was fun. And this year I know what candy is so too bad Mommy and Daddy...I'm eating it all! :)

I was Elvis and Max was a turtle.


Loose turtle!!!

After the kids carnival, we hit up the neighborhood for more candy.

There are LOTS of kids on my street (and lots of people passing out candy!)

Using my charm to sweet talk this neighbor into giving me more candy! ;-)

Happy Halloween everyone!

School Pictures

We took pictures at school day. They dressed us up in outfits and I had a lot of fun as usual!








Cheese! ~Miles

BU Homecoming- 100 years!

We went to Baylor this weekend for their 100th Homecoming. It was very fun. We met up with some of Mommy's friends, watched the parade, and went to the football game. The Bears did not win, but we had a blast!

Here's me and Daddy with Mommy's law school professor, Professor Powell.


Here's Mommy with her good friend and mock trial partner, Casey.

Casey let us watch the game in her cool box seats! This is the way to watch a game. :)


Sic 'em Bears!!!

I liked playing in the pom-poms.


Cheese!

The whole family!

We had fun at homecoming. ~Miles

Pumpkin Patch

Today we went to the pumpkin patch at my school. We each picked out our very own pumpkin to put on our front porch.


I was not too sure what to do with this...


Max is getting so big!


Mommy's three little pumpkins.


Picking out the pumpkins for me and Max.


Then we ate our dinner. Max really likes feeding himself.


And I like playing peek-a-boo!

Speaking of "boo" it's almost Halloween! I will make sure Mommy takes plenty of pictures of my costume.

Max's 10 Month Photo Shoot

Max took some pictures this week. It's a tough age to photograph because he's super mobile, but you can't bribe him to be still!

My handsome baby brother.

I let him borrow my golf cart for these shots.

Little Tiger.

Here's a sneak peek at his Halloween costume. Little devil! ;)

Doesn't he look mischievous?

Attacking the photographer!

he he devil tail.

Look at all of his teeth! He likes to bite me, but Mommy and Daddy are working on that!

Look at my lil bro...

Max is walking. Kind of anyway! He's trying very hard to keep up with me!

Fish Camp

We went down to see Granny and Pop's new fish camp in Port O'Connor. I love it! Mommy and Daddy REALLY love it because they can fish.

Here's Daddy's catch:

Mommy's big red fish.

Then we went over to Sunday beach to look for sand dollars.


Walking back to the boat on Sunday beach.


I love Port O'Connor. I can't wait until I'm big enough to go wade fishing like Pop!
