What a wonderful Christmas!

Miller still doesn't really understand Christmas yet, but he sure had a good time! He LOVED Santa Claus (Ho-Ho) and went right to him when we took him to get his picture made. Anytime we went anywhere, he would find a Santa Claus if there was one there, too. He has pretty much just been obsessed with him! :)

Christmas day was so much fun. Miller was so excited about getting all the new toys! We had Annie(Taylor's mom) come on Christmas Eve, and then Callie and Sidney came on Christmas day. On Saturday, we went to Eupora and Miller got to play with his cousins, Maggie, Kinsley, and Whitten. We enjoyed watching him and he made our Christmas wonderful!! I look forward to all the Christmas memories to come.

Santa came and left Miller lots of new things!

Indywood Christmas Party

We went to Indywood on Thursday to see Taylor's grandmother and to go to their Christmas party. It was a fun time for everyone and so many people went! It was nice to see everyone's family there having a good time. Miller even got to see SANTA CLAUS!! I didnt' know Santa was going to be there but it was a great surprise. Miller LOVED him! He kept watching him and saying "Ho-Ho!" Miller also had a great time dancing to the band. He went right up to them to get a closer look. Granny enjoyed being able to introduce Miller to everyone and getting them to watch him dance.

Greenwood Christmas Parade

I wasn't sure how Miller was going to react to the Christmas parade this year. He has really gotten to the stage where he likes to be "free" to do what "he" wants to do so I didn't know how that would work out at the parade. I decided putting him in his wagon might be the best since he feels less confined in it. We bundled him all up (it was FREEZING)and loaded up the wagon. He even wore gloves for the first time and never took them off!! As we walked to the parade from our house he waved to everyone on the sidewalk and said "Hey!" He was loving it! Then once the parade started he never took his eyes off the action. He especially loved the bands.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!

We had a great time Trick-or-Treating with Shannon and Ainsley Melton. Miller was a duck and Ainsley was pig - they were so CUTE!!! We just made a few stops but they both had a ball!

Getting ready to leave

Our first stop was to go visit Granny - Sadie got to go on this trip!

FOOTBALL FUN!!

Well, Taylor and I are for different teams so we do go to both State and Ole Miss games. Miller gets dressed for each team as well. :) We have had a lot of fun taking him this year - well not actually the game but the pregame activities. :) First, we went to Oxford to the Ole Miss/Bama game. It was very muddy but Miller still had a blast trying to run around. We had to chase him though and that was not so fun in the mud...We had a great time visiting with everyone. He and Ainsley had a sitter for the game, but I think Miller slept for her almost the whole time. Since we had a sitter, I went shopping instead of going to the game.

This past weekend, Miller and I went to Starkville for the MSU/FL game. Taylor did not get to go to this one so we missed him being with us. It was a beautiful day and I got to see lots of people I had not seen in a while. I went on to the game and Mimi and Clay Clay kept Miller. The game was so much fun even though State did not win - it was so loud! I hope we get to go back to another one. Miller had fun playing with Maggie and the other children at our tent.

Aunt Callie Came to Visit!

Aunt Callie came to visit us and brought Miller some surprises from her trip to Orlando. He loves Mickey Mouse Clubhouse so she brought him a BIG stuffed Mickey!! Taylor loved Star Wars when he was little (and still does) so she also brought Miller some Star Wars bath toys so he can like Star Wars, too! Miller loves his Aunt Callie or CC - whichever he decides to call her. :) Thanks Callie!
