Standing up!

William starting pulling himself using this activity block several weeks ago.  It scares me because I'm afraid that we are going to have an early walker!

Raccoons!

The Miller household has a raccoon issue!  We had another visit from our friend the other day.  This visit was different because we actually knew he was here.  He was super loud!  The issue is not over but he is gone for the time being.

This is how Mr. Raccoon got into our house.  He ripped the vent off and then broke the fan inside it.

Mike screwed the attic door shut because he saw Mr. Raccoon looking into 'Miller Bar.'

Mr. Raccoon was actually stuck in our attic.  He used to get in through a hole in the chimney but we patched that up a month ago.  He finally figured a way into our house but couldn't get out the way he got in.  We had a really noisy night because he was freaking out since he was trapped.  He finally figured a way out though!

William is growing and changing everyday.  I have had the best time with him this summer.  It's been such an amazing, learning experience.  I'm sad about having to leave him to go back to work but I know it's something that I have to do.  The thing that will keep me going is the knowledge that May 31st (the last day of school) will soon be here!  Then, William and I will have another amazing summer!

He is sitting up (for a little bit at least)!

Last summer, Mike and I went to France for our vacation.  On this vacation, we realized that our lives would never be the same.  We discovered that we were pregnant on our first morning in Paris.  We didn't get to go back to Paris this summer so Mike brought a little of Paris to our house.  He made us crepes.   Someday we will make crepes for William and tell him why they are so special to us.

A few weeks ago, he started dancing!  

Best Dancer in the Fam!

William has his daddy's moves!

A tooth!

August 3, 2011- William gets his first tooth!

 He is on the verge of crawling too!

 We still have a lot of junk to get rid of but Miller Bar/ Office/ Gym/ Playroom is coming along.  I love this mat for William to play on.

 He likes to rip up the floor though!

 This is Adam and William when Adam was  first born.  There are 6 weeks between the two.  We were thinking that William was a giant compared to Adam.

Four months later and Adam is passing William up.  Look at the legs on the guy!

No more shopping in the carrier!  William loved sitting in the cart with this cover.  When he got tired, he just leaned to the side and relaxed.  This made shopping a lot easier.

Michigan Vacation!

Our family vacation this summer was to Michigan.  It was a perfect combination of friends, family, and alone time.  We started off bright and early flying to Michigan.  William did awesome!  

Our first stop was at Mullet Lake.  A huge thank you goes out to Cathy and Price for allowing us to intrude on your week at the cottage.  We had a great time!

William is a talker!  He talks the most in the car for some reason.

Great Wolf Lodge!

The three of us got to spend a night in Leland, Michigan.  William was able to put his feet in Lake Michigan.

While we were on vacation, William turned 5 months!  So it was time for rice cereal.

We also have tons of pictures so I have been trying to figure out how to put a slideshow on here.
