18 Months Old

Miller just went in for his 18-month check-up with Dr. D last week, and he's weighing a little over 30 lbs! He's still 75% for height and 95% for head size. His 30 lbs puts him up to 90% for weight, but I think a lot of that is due to his huge noggin'.

Miller has turned into a total dare-devil, unlike his mom. He loves going down the slide at the park, doing somersaults, getting thrown up in the air - anything that is an adventure.

He even liked the crazy pool slide that my mom got for her pool. He looks like he's freaked out here, but he LOVED it. He would get mad when it was over if we didn't send him down again immediately.

He also met a horse a few weeks back in Granbury. He was a little scared at first, but definitely interested in checking it out. He was fascinated by the horses big eyes and was saying "eye" even in the car after we left. Pretty funny.

He continues to be the sweetest boy in the world, and we are so lucky. He makes us both laugh every day!

Cooking Blog

Can't remember if I ever gave anyone this link, but I started another blog to put my favorite recipes out there for others to try. I put a GREAT one up today for cornbread casserole (sounds weird, but is amazingly good), so I thought it would be a good time to put it out there.

Ha! I win.

Finally, proof that Miller isn't a complete Mike clone!

My mom brought over one of my baby pictures (notice the awesomely 70s decor), and I definitely recognized that smile and curly (who knew?) blonde hair.

Miller's School Picture

How funny is Miller's school picture? My favorite part about it is that he's in a beach scene, but for some reason he's holding a dinosaur.

Smart Baby

The first time I asked Miller a question and he actually answered me, it about knocked me to the floor. He's growing up into such a smart little boy. He's practically a Veterinarian already.

This Baby Was Made For Walking

Whoa. Apparently Miller has finally decided that he's ready to walk. We are in trouble!

Memorial Day Weekend

Mike, Miller and I (and Vince and Sadie too), had an awesome Memorial Day weekend hanging out at my mom's lake house while mom and Chuck vacationed in Southwest Texas. Jen and Tom came and joined us for a night (and Raj for a couple of hours on Sunday), and it was great to be able to spend time with them.

Here's Miller after eating a delicious cupcake that his Ninny brought him. He's a little tired from having too much fun playing in the pool.

Here's Lili snuggling Jen, who she fell in love with over the couple of days Jen was at the lake house.

Classy picture of me drinking a beer and playing with Miller.

Happy baby in the pool.

The last night of the trip, we took Miller for his first visit to eat at Babe's Chicken House, home of the yummiest fried chicken (and creamed corn, and chicken-fried steak, and mashed potatoes...) ever.

Miller was not a fan, but we had a great time anyway.
