Well, since the last post with Miller's birthday...

And he's now 13 months old, I figured it was time for a new post. I'd like to say we've been busy, but no more than usual, so there's really not an excuse for taking so long to post. I still have to post family pictures from Memorial Day, but the Netbook doesn't have a drive for CD/DVDs, so that will have to wait for now. At least I've got a bunch of videos.

It's hard to see, but Momma made a mohawk while we were in the bath one night.

He has discovered where the dirty laundry is kept, and he's found that it's just the right size for him. Most of our cabinets now have rubber bands on them to keep him out. We figure he can play all he wants in this one - no harm done.

He likes to carry my shoes around by their straps. This was his favorite bouncy toy, well he's discovered it again. He just sits in the middle and plays on the piano.

Why ride on a car the conventional way?

Four generations in a picture. Grandpa Allison, Grandma Allison, Granny Chris, John, me, and Miller. This was at Alisha's baby shower. It was the only time I actually remembered to get my camera out.

John and Miller in the pool.

We went to Sci-port Discovery center, and it is SO much fun. At this exhibit, you brush the dirt off to discover different fossils.

Sidenote: As I'm typing this, I literally just watched Miller pick up a piece of paper, crumple it up, and throw it in the trash can we use as his diaper pail. I thought he was gifted and would be neat, until he started pulling out the dirty diapers.

Second sidenote: Has anyone else noticed how many now famous people are in the movie Buffy the Vampire Slayer? So far I've seen David Arquette, Ben Affleck, and Hilary Swank.


Playing in the water. This exhibit was super cool too. You could put in pieces of plastic to create a damn. Once the water had built up, you pull the plastic out and the water comes rushing out for you to splash and play in.

This was a ship that was on a raised blue padded ground. Miller loved it because it was kind of bouncy and slanted and so much fun for him to play on!

We had so much fun at Sci-port. sually Miller has to watch and observe everything, and he stays close to Mommy and Daddy. Not at Sci-port. He was running around, having a great time. He didn't care if Mommy and Daddy were there at all.

Here's Miller playing in his sandbox. We haven't been able to play in it too much because it's been so hot, but he does enjoy it when he gets the chance.




It's almost silly for me to post this video now because all he does is walk now, but this is when he first started being able to walk long distances. It's shocking how fast things change.

Here's Miller and Daddy playing the Buzz Lightyear car. So much fun!

Playing in the hamper.

He loves bread. Here he is just eating a piece.

This is us playing in the pool. When Momma says "kick, kick, kick" he actually does it!

That's it for now everybody. Hope you all had a great weekend!
