Arrival of Iliana Chapa & The Adventures of Miles

 

The most exciting news of the last month is the arrival on April 4 of Iliana Sofia Chapa, the daughter of Jill's cousin Marcela. She made Miles look like a giant, and reminded us of life five months ago.

Miles also started day care at Sony this month, which means once a week he gets to ride with his new friends through Main Street on the studio lot.


We try to read to Miles as much as possible because our friends Maryann and Ohad gave us a great book on the importance of reading to kids. Here he is mesmerized by the legend of Daisuke Matsuzaka.


Miles also enjoys cruising around Santa Monica representing the Red Sox. He was particularly excited this past weekend to enjoy the Sox sweep the Yankees at Fenway.


On Easter we finally introduced Miles to the spiritual side of life by returning to Saint Monica's dressed in style thanks to the Bingles.


After returning from church and brunch, Miles shared a smile with his new friend Ducky.


We also spent time in Arcadia celebrating the birthday of Jill's pregnant sister Leslie.

While the quality of the picture is weak, the neat thing to note is that three of the seven ladies are pregnant so Miles will have plenty of baby companions soon enough.


Here is Jill's cousin Marcela enjoying some time with Miles. The finger poking Miles' defenseless baby belly belongs to Leslie.


Miles enjoys hanging around post-bath in his robe. Seriously, how cute is this?


Peter's grandfather Papa Moon, an eye surgeon, would have appreciated seeing Miles sport some slick sunglasses while he strolls around town with Peter and his Abueloca Daisy.


Not surprisingly, this look tends to attract attention so we've had some close encounters with a few more celebrities this month: Arnold Schwarzenegger, Maria Shriver, Kurt Russell, Goldie Hawn, Madeline Stowe, and Marcia Cross.

And don't forget that Peter's birthday is on May 1.
