Muscles McBaby and where he got it from

For those who haven't met him yet, let me tell you, Miles is one strong baby. This is the child that first rolled over at 3 weeks and as you can see, not only does he have muscles, he enjoys admiring them in the mirror too! Norris is genetically blessed with a quick metabolism and super strength so I guess it's where Miles gets it from. Since the pregnancy I've been one pain after another. Had muscle spasms after the pregnancy and now I'm having pain in the joints of my fingers and wrists to the point that it's difficult to open childproof containers. I've been told it's ligament pain that's normal post pregnancy and that it will fade but it still sucks - must be what arthritis feels like and if so, let me tell you, arthritis is not minor!

Paris the Hotel

Last weekend our little family continued our exploration of our new city and went to Paris the hotel on the strip.

We recommend paying the $9 and going on the Eiffel tower elevator ride. Try to go near the top of the hour so you can see the Bellagio's water show as well. It was spectacular from that height and very different from viewing it at eye level.

Norris has commented, and I think it may be true that the ideal baby nursery should look as much as possible like a casino. Our little angel just LOVED looking at the blinking lights and hearing the chirping sounds coming out the slot machines. We just pray we're not imprinting him with these things but hopefully one quick walk through the casino to the Eiffel Tower will have little effect.

Miles and Obama

We've been trying to post the video of Miles and Barack Obama for a while but keep having problems posting. Here is a screen shot that may make the Miles adoring club happy:
