Miller's Baptism

Should have been posted May 4, 2008:

What a sweet day for our family! Miller Wesley Lee was baptised by his Daddy! It is so comforting as a believer knowing that our children are part of the covenant family and that God is in control of thier life. It is hard to believe that someone can love our little ones more than us, but God does and I know that he will never do anything that is not the very best for them!

Miller's Firsts

Over the past two months Miller has had a lot of firsts! This is one of the reasons I was so upset about losing all my pictures because i had not written anything down, I was just going to rely on my camera for all dates when I downloaded them onto the computer. Thank goodness they were all recovered. Here are a few of his firsts. (the dates are more for me)

Miller started playing with his toys! He loves his zebra. (April 30, 2008)


Miller's first bites. (May 8, 2008) Miller was not to fond of eating rice cereal. He still does not love to eat solid foods, but obviously it is not affecting him too much!


Miller rolled over! (May 10, 2008). He had actually rolled over on his own maybe one or two time before this. I felt like the worst mom taking these pictures while he was screaming, but it was such a big day for him I just wanted to document it.

Beach Pictures!!!

The pictures are finally here! Obviously you can tell from the pictures Ella loved the pool! She is a little fish and would stay in the pool all day if we let her. In the last pictures you can see how Miller spent his time at the pool.

Ella Loving Miller

Miller had a little bit of a rough start with Ella. It was not that she did not love him, she just loved him a little too much. She has so much more self-control around him and is overall very sweet. Although we still have the occassional bite.

Ella is TWO!!!

Hooray! Finally some new pictures! This post is only a month and a half late! Yes this does mean that I finally got an external hard drive and can put my pictures on the computer. However I am not fully up and running so it may be a few more days. I think what I am going to do is try to catch up on my posting. I know that most of you are not going to care too too much about what has been going on the past month, but this is more for myself (I have high aspirations of printing these one day and making a book. this will give my children some sort of memory book) and my mom who does faithfully print each post.

Ella's birthday was a blast! It was a little bit colder than we would have expected in the middle of April, but don't worry the weather did not deter me from dressing Miller and Ella in the outfits I made especially for the party thinking it was going to be very hot at the park. I spent all that time, they were going to wear it! Ella did not miss a beat. Miller however was a little cold. But they sure looked cute. It was so fun to watch Ella play with her friends. Of course she did not have a clue that they were all together to celebrate her birthday. A party at the park never fails!
Ella is ready for "Happy Birthday"! She has been practicing for weeks.

Ella's birthday cake was made of small cupcakes. She could not have been more excited! Cupcakes are her very favorite!

Ella was so sweet to share with Granna and EG





And what did Miller think of all the attention Ella was getting? Well it was a little chilly so he had to stay in his stroller to keep warm which meant not so much attention. At first he was his normal, happy self.

But after awhile, he said enough is enough, I want some attetion!

Off to the Windy City

Murray, Miller and I are heading out early tomorrow morning for Chicago. We are going to visit Wellon and Stephen. Miller is going to get some good time with Aunt Wellon and Uncle Stephen since Ella will not be with us. Ella usually steals all the attention. But I am sure that will not last too long as Miller's little personality is getting bigger and bigger everyday! Ella is spending the week with PaPa, so I am sure we will have some fun stories about that!

Small Miracles!!!!!

I took my camera to the Wolf store today and they said they could try to recover the pictures, but they could not guarentee that they could get them. They said I could call in an hour and they would let me know the status. I called after 56 minutes and they said they were able to recover almost 200 pictures!!!!! Tomorrow I am going to go and see if they are the right ones. I do not really know how these things work if it could be really old pictures or the last ones I took. But, chances are looking pretty good that my pictures are not lost forever! I will keep you updated!
