Happenings

We had some cute little visitors last weekend. Ally is on the left (engaged to Jack). Lindsey is in the middle (Everett's wife-to-be). Aren't they all so cute? Some cuddle time with Daddy. It is like a pile of testosterone.
Tummy time. Everett is teaching Jack all about picking his head up.






Jack Love!



And here is Everett giving jack a bottle.





Look how handsome my boys are!




And last, but not least....This is hair. This is my hair that Everett cut with the nail clippers. When I see you in person, ask me to show you my bald spot.

A few Closer-ups of Jack

I had a request for a few better shots of Jack so here are a couple where you can see his face pretty well.


We call him the beast

The doctors confirmed what we all thought to be true...he is a beast. Statistics prove this to be fact

Easter and such

A lot has been going on in the Miller house. It has been pretty nice out so Daddy and Everett started to work on the garden. There has been some interest in Jack's sideburns, so we thought we would silence the rumors and publish the truth. Yes, he was born with these sideburns! Rock on little Miller!
Jack's first bath (after the umbilical cord fell off). Man did that thing stink.

All of mommy's boys. Aren't they handsome!



Jack's first bottle with Daddy.





And we asked Everett what he wanted to wear for Easter Sunday and he chose cowboy boots....only cowboy boots.


Don't worry Everett, we blocked your parts so you won't hate us in 15 years. Here he is brushing his teeth in his Easter outfit.



The great Easter egg hunt at Grammi and Pappa's house. Napolean got in on the action too.

Jack Update


It has been a hectic week here in the Miller house, but everything is going great with the boys. Here are some much asked for updates.


This is Everett getting ready for Jack's arrival. This carseat used to be huge compared to him.
Even Napolean got into the maternal spirit.



Everett and Jack got matching outfits from Aunt Sarah. This has his name on it and says he is a big brother! He wore it to meet Jack at the hospital.




Mommy and the boys! They are some handsome little guys.


Proud pappa

Meeting Grammi.







Metting Pappa



Everett loves to hold Jack. We have to keep him out of reach so he doesnt "take Jack" when we aren't looking.







Handsome guys!





Going home.






Auntie Claudia













Everett seems a bit big for Jacks bed.



Jack is a much better fit.




We are so excited you are here, safe and sound.

Everett plays soccer

Donna(Frank's sister) and Ken Marsh sent a soccer goal as a gift for Everett the other day and he absolutely loves it. Whenever he kicks the ball in the goal there is cheering and it yells "GOAL." In the video he kicks a couple goals, is blocked by Wilson once, and then at the end yells "Yay", gives me a high five, and then says "I did it."

Jack's First Video

Here is a short video from Jack's first night. This was taken about an hour after birth. I put my hand in there so you can see how small he is.

Happy Birthday Everett

I was hoping to be able to post about 2 birthdays, but the littlest Miller seems to be a bit on the stubborn side.... Nonetheless, Everett had a fantastic 2nd birthday.
We started the day off with Everett sneaking in a quick opening before breakfast.
Here is the newest addition to the family - Baby Elmo. Everett feeds him, puts him to bed, and he goes everywhere with us. Thanks to the Venns- this will be perfect when the baby comes!
Daddy made Everett some special mickey "cakes" for breakfast.
Then we went upstairs to show Everett his train set. He loved it!




He played for about an hour and a half and and then we went downstairs to open some more gifts. Grandpa Moose got him "cars" (lightning McQueen). We then had to watch some of the movie. Grandma and Grandpa Miller got some food and plates and we had a picnic.












What a ham!


We had a good day and went over Grammi and Pappa's for homemade pizza dinner. Yum!
After dinner was mickey cupcakes, but Everett doesn't like his hands dirty, so he only used his mouth.




And some more gifts. Aunt Sarah got him another Elmo pillowcase - he loves his big boy bed and has to have an Elmo pillowcase on it. He got some great new books for dinnertime too.


And Grammi and Pappa gave him some awesome blocks, a "mato-head" and some awesome "cars". We have to play "mato -head" and blocks every morning.Great Grandma and Great Grandpa Miller sent Everett some money in the mail. He took it straight to the pet store to pick up some more fish for his aquarium. Then he took one of his girlfriends on a date to the play place. Auntie Katie also sent a more than generous savings bond for Everett as well. Thanks Auntie Katie and everyone for making it a great birthday!
And another update. Everett's godparents, Brian and Ali, sent Everett a more than generous savings bond as well. Thanks guys!! Now that I am a stay-at-home mom, I hope to send you pictures and updates more often. Love you!

The Due Date Counter

You may have noticed that the due date counter on the right hand side has gone into negative numbers. This means that the due date has come and gone, still no baby, and we are still waiting. We hope he comes soon.
