TOYS TOYS TOYS!!

I try to neatly pile Miller's toys in a box in our living room so he can easily get to them but also to keep them out of the way so our living room can be as neat as possible. Easier said than done when you have an 10 month old!! The first 2 pictures are the neat pile of toys just waiting for Miller to find!! The last 2 pictures are of the aftermath!! Toys EVERYWHERE!! So much for neat and tidy!!























Like I said in my previous blog my parents came to our house to evacuate from Hurricane Ike. So naturally all their dogs came too. Did I mention they have 4 poodles?? That made a total of 6 dogs in our house...5 of them being poodles. It was CRAZY but fun!!















These are some pictures from dinner at Sicily's with The McAnally's. We had fun with our little ones and enjoyed some good food with great friends!!

Baby Pictures

My parents came to McKinney this past weekend to evacuate from Hurricane Ike. They brought along many important things with them in case they had damage to their home. Fortunately for them they did not have any major damage...just lost power for a few days and had minor tree damage. They brought with them some old photo albums from when I was a baby. Many people tell me that Miller looks like me. I really didn't see it until I looked at some of my old baby pictures. I can definitely see it now...especially from the nose up. I will admit that from the nose down he looks like his Daddy. He even has a little dimple in his chin like Daddy but from the nose up he is all me!! Check out my old baby pictures and tell me what you think!!??

Texas A&M vs Arkansas State

We went to College Station this weekend to kick off football season. We have season tickets to the A&M football games. (Don't worry all my Longhorn friends...I have NOT been converted. I just support my husband's interests!) It was especially fun because my little brother is a freshman at A&M so we got to hang with a lot of family. Although the game was a bit disappointing here are a few pictures from the weekend. Marsh bought Miller a tiny 12th Man Jersey. I have to say it is really cute!

Marble Falls Getaway

We went to Marble Falls this weekend with friends to celebrate the end of summer. We had lots of fun jet skiing on the lake, eating, lounging, playing pool, watching the Olympics and putting together a very addicting puzzle. Cheree and her husband Mark came out for the day on Saturday to enjoy the lake too. Overall it was a wonderful trip. Thanks Aunt Debbie and Uncle Mark for letting us borrow the house for the weekend. (Mandy and Brandon we really missed you guys. We love you!!)

College Move-In

My brother moved into his dorm at A&M this past weekend. It was so exciting seeing all the eager and energetic new freshmen...and lots of sad crying mommas!! He is really excited about being an Aggie. Here are a few pictures from College Station. We also saw my cousin and his family while we were in town. Miller and his cousin Grace are sitting on a little "baby" couch. Isn't it cute?

Ready for Football Season!!

Miller is ready for football season. The question is...Who will he root for?? The Longhorns...Mommy's team....OR the Aggies...Daddy's team?? One thing is for sure he will definitely be cheering on the Sweeny Bulldogs!! Grandpa Grumpy coaches the Bulldogs!!

CRAWLING!!!

About a week after learning that he can move around by doing the army crawl, Miller figured out that he can move even faster by using his knees. So now he is in to EVERYTHING!! It is tons of fun watching him change so much. I know it seems that I only post pictures of us before we go to Church but that is the time when we all are dressed in our "Sunday Best!!" So here once again are a few pictures of us on our way to Church!!

9 Months Old

Miller will be 9 months old tomorrow 07-28-08. Here are a few new pictures!!





















Miller and Kinley posing together. Aren't they cute? They are both 9 months old!!

The Army Crawl!!

Miller is almost 9 months old. He is starting to crawl all over the place. He hasn't quite mastered the art of crawling but it is cute to watch!! Enjoy!!

Miller also likes to jump in his "Jumperoo."

Summer Pictures

Here are some pictures from the summer. The first few are from Marble Falls. Charlie's aunt and uncle have a lake house in Marble Falls. We enjoy boating, jet skiing, and tubing on the lake!!
