8 Months


!! HAPPY FATHER's DAY !!!
Gracie started off her 7th Month by celebrating her Daddy! And what a great Daddy he is! I remind Gracie everyday to be thankful for her Daddy. He loves her VERY much and will do anything for her - and does! They have lots of fun together & it was fun watching him enjoy HIS special day with his daughter.

We spent Father's Day weekend in Virginia. The weather was gorgeous and we decided to spend part of the day in the pool. This was Gracie's first time in a pool - She loved it just as we thought - she's a total water baby! Didn't stay too long though since we didn't want her porcelain skin burning up. :)
We topped off our fun-filled weekend with breakfast ...YUM!
I love my Grandpa!
Gracie had presents for Dad when we got home
Tabi wanted in on the fun!

Gracie LOVES spending time playing with Daddy....
I don't know if THIS counts as "quality-time" but I guess technology is UN-avoidable...

Gracie has grown quite a bit in the last month! She is doing really well and progressing a bit more each day. It is becoming harder & harder to remember how small she was when we first started out...but fun to go back & look and see how far we've come. This is how Gracie prefers to sleep - butt up in the air & legs & arms crossed & tucked in (usually)...TOO cute! xo
The biggest part of Gracie's 7 month adventures was her very first plane ride & trip out of the country! Granted it was just to Canada but still...Mom & Dad were rather nervous to have those two BIG firsts occurring at the same time! Thankfully we all remembered our passports and the trip there & back was no problem at all. In fact we received several comments from fellow-passengers on how well-behaved she was throughout the flight. She slept. The entire time. WHEW! :)
There were LOTS of fantastic photo opps for Gracie while we were there and as I was going through my pictures trying to figure out which ones to select I thought I would just compile them all for you to see. We had a fantastic time as a family and we are all looking forward to heading up there again next year. Gracie will be able to enjoy the area a bit more as she will likely be walking (!!!) and certainly embarking on all new adventures!

Love to all!

Updates are coming!

I know, I know...been awhile! :)
Needless to say things have been SUPER busy for the Miller household over the last 3 months.
Summertime usually is pretty busy for our family as we try to jam it with lots of fun outings & get aways - which we did!
I'm going to work very hard to catch you all up on what's been going on with us! Lots to share!
Love to all!
