Some Trivia For You
June 4, 2009
We have a globe that you touch with a stylus and it gives you little facts about places all over the world. Miles has been slightly obsessed with the globe lately and spits out bits of trivia at completely random times, complete with the inflection of the computerized voice. Last night we were snuggling together on the comfy chair before bedtime, he reached up and lovingly stroked my cheek before spitting out this fun fact.
It makes me laugh every time.
(Translation: Mauna Loa is a volcano on the island of Hawaii)

June 4th, 2009 at 12:11 pmYou have such a sweetie pie in that boy!
June 4th, 2009 at 12:12 pmDo you know where you got that globe? I have a 46-year-old who would be thrilled with it!
June 4th, 2009 at 12:13 pmMiles is too, too cute.
He’s adorable but I couldn’t understand what he said!!!
June 4th, 2009 at 12:15 pmSweet mercy that boy is cute !!
June 4th, 2009 at 12:40 pmI love his laugh and his smile. Oh please more Miles videos of facts. Or just videos of Miles. PLEASE!
June 4th, 2009 at 12:41 pmHee hee hee. I can imagine him saying it and it made me laugh out loud! :o)
June 4th, 2009 at 1:10 pmOh, that smile! I just don’t see how you get anything done. I would just sit around staring at him adoringly and begging him not to grow up too quickly all day.
June 4th, 2009 at 1:20 pmI want one of those! The boy and the globe
June 4th, 2009 at 1:23 pmI on the other hand (who works with preschoolers)completely understood what Miles was saying! I read your explaination of what he said and thought he said that perfectly clear and you did not need to interpet it. I agree Miles is adorable! His laugh is soooo cute!
June 4th, 2009 at 1:27 pmthats just too cute
i wish i had my kids on tape when they were still too cute
June 4th, 2009 at 1:30 pmOh goody, someone with a globe! Could you possibly tell me if LA is, in fact on the direct opposite side of the world from Dubai? I’d just like to know that, while going around saying Boyfriend is 1/2 way around the world, I’m actually correct…
Also: Miles is adorable and I would like to nom on those adorable cheeks!!
June 4th, 2009 at 1:41 pmSo cute!
June 4th, 2009 at 1:50 pmACK, he is too adorable! You have the best laugh.
June 4th, 2009 at 2:31 pmSo cute!
June 4th, 2009 at 2:39 pmMe and Roo just had to watch/listen to Miles five times! When it was over Roo said “He’s a goose!”
Folk AY NO !!!
June 4th, 2009 at 3:06 pmI’m going to start saying it that way too! He just slays me!
There is something to be said when small children know more about geography than I do.
June 4th, 2009 at 3:16 pmOhhhh…..I love those giggles!!!!!
And we too would love a globe like that at our house. Do tell where you got it.
June 4th, 2009 at 3:24 pmLOVE how he says “Hawai’i” like the island natives!! I understood exactly what he said. That child is absolutely precious and he must be such a joy to be around. Thank you for sharing these little glimpses into your life with us; they are so entertaining.
June 4th, 2009 at 3:52 pmthank you (and your baby) for bringing a smile to my face today.
June 4th, 2009 at 4:25 pmYou must post where you got that globe!
Chris says: it is a Leap Fron globe that we got forever ago.
June 4th, 2009 at 4:43 pmI thought he said “Momma, know what, there’s a volcano on the island of Hawaii,” which goes to show Miles has more volcano knowledge than I do! Mauna Loa is a new one for me.
June 4th, 2009 at 6:45 pmYou make the most beautiful children. You should make more!
June 4th, 2009 at 6:58 pmI just showed this video to my 7 year old daughter Emily and she goes “oh my gosh he talks so cute *pauses*…do you think he’s single?”
I told her I doubted it but I’d check with you to be sure.
HILARIOUS!
June 4th, 2009 at 7:49 pmSo cute! His giggle had me laughing.
June 4th, 2009 at 8:17 pmSo. So. So. So. Cute
June 4th, 2009 at 9:51 pmWe’ve got the Leap Frog globe at Christmas, my five year old doesn’t seem quite as excited about his though…might be time to drag it back out and start playing with it. Mile has wicked dimples.
June 4th, 2009 at 10:01 pmYou need to team up with this kid when its Trivial Pursuit time.
June 4th, 2009 at 10:29 pmI listened again …. The first time I missed that it was a FUNK ay no (not folk) Even funnier!
June 4th, 2009 at 11:12 pmOh my goodness, what a cutie… I understood him perfectly, and then wanted to just gobble him up. So stinkin’ cute.
June 4th, 2009 at 11:21 pmHilarious! I see why you laugh every time!
June 5th, 2009 at 9:13 amDo your kids points in school for being sooooo stinkin’ cute?
What a cutie, and in my opinion he said it perfectly (and I’m a Kindergarten teacher - I know these things!)
June 5th, 2009 at 9:57 amSo cute! I love his little husky voice!
June 5th, 2009 at 10:16 amHe looks like a little sufer dude with the great hair and tan. He would be so cute in a little wetsuit and boogie board.
June 5th, 2009 at 11:03 amI am going to eat him. So yummy, that boy!
June 5th, 2009 at 1:44 pmThat little munchkin is precious…..want to eat him up!!
June 5th, 2009 at 4:50 pmAdorable, as usual. I thought it sounded like he said “Mama Loa”.
June 5th, 2009 at 4:56 pmHe has gotten so blonde in that Texas sunshine!! Definitely munchable!!
June 5th, 2009 at 11:10 pmI think we need Miles-isims each week!
