Miles' Favorite Things

Miles loves to watch Yo Gabba Gabba. I love how Yo Gabba Gabba comes up with cool stuff using Ska & Reggae that Miles loves to dance too (and that Roman & I can enjoy too)! We can tell that Miles has the same taste as us in music which is nice. I guess ska and reggae is in his blood since that has been our favorite music since we were kids.

One of his favorite songs is "Banana" from The Aggrolites which is a cool band because they sound like real jamaican ska. Here is the video clip:

This is another one of his favorites called "Pick It Up" it is so cute because if you ever listened to The Specials or Prince Buster you will recognize where they got the idea for this clip:

Here is a random picture of Miles taken with my iPhone. He's loved everything pirate since he was a little baby. Roman and I have so much Halloween stuff, skulls, and pirate stuff all over the house that I guess it was only natural :-)

What a great moment!

I voted early in the day and was so hopeful that Obama would be our next president. We went out to get our free Ben and Jerry's ice cream which was being given between 5 and 8pm. Then Miles spent time playing in the mall play area with a bunch of kids. All of us parents were glued to our iPhones (watching the returns for sure, I know I was). I was so excited to experience the moment I had been waiting for that I saved a screen capture of it on my iPhone!



Roman and I took Miles and hurried home so we wouldn't miss Obama's speech. It was so great! It was a night we will never forget!

Halloween was fun. Since we have been so busy, we just took Miles trick or treating in Monrovia. They have the coolest Victorian and Craftsman homes there. We seriously want to buy a historical home there someday. These home owners really do an awesome job decorating for Halloween! Just take a look at one of our favorite Victorian homes...


Miles looked so cute in his vampire Bat costume! He was so excited to spread his bat wings for anyone who would give him candy :-) Yes, that's me and can you tell I'm 32weeks pregnant in this picture?


You can see my 32 week belly better in this picture taken the next day while shooting Natalie & Jerry's awesome wedding at the Castle Green in Pasadena.
