Millie's Sweet Ride

So, I had the idea to put Amelia in this umbrella stoller that we have to give her another vantage point around the house. Even though it doesn't look like it in the pics, she really likes being wheeled around from room to room. It gives me a chance to take her with me easily when I'm dusting or vacuuming. The dogs also love it because it puts Amelia on their level and they get to sniff her all they want :)

Millie's First Family Reunion

Millie G got to attend her first Maxey family reunion this weekend. I believe I was just slightly younger than she is when I attended mine and haven't missed one yet!! She LOVED seeing all the people googling over her! She even took a nice nap laying on top of a table! I didn't take enough pics of my own because other family members were taking lots. I'll post those when I get them. Anyway, she had a slight meltdown in the car just outside of Waxahachie, so we pulled over, sat her in front of the air vents, changed her diaper and carried on. She just gets too hot sitting in her car seat. Those things are safe, but they sure don't allow for much air circulation in 106 degree weather :P Anyway, we got her home, gave her a cool bath, and she slept from 7:30 p.m. until 6:15 a.m., so we were very happy with that!

What we've learned this weekend: 1)Millie G is a social butterfly 2)Millie G doesn't sleep when she's at home because we're too quiet for her :P 3)Texas is too hot for a 3 month old to sit in a car seat for 2.5 hours (I bought a battery operated misting fan at Wal-Mart today, and she loves being sprayed by it).

It was a great, but tiring weekend and it was great seeing all the family members again!

Busy Weekend Day 2 (A little late)

So, Millie G and I completed our weekend with a visit to Granny and Papa John's house.


Their "children" don't know quite what to make of Amelia.



On our way home, we stopped by Justin and Michelle's to say "hi" to Pappy. The girls stayed happy just long enough for one pic. Brody, however, would not cooperate!

Busy Weekend Day 1

We have quite a busy weekend going so I thought I would share a few photos we've snapped along the way.

Friday night Joe and I got to leave Mille G with Nana while we went and ate at Outback Steakhouse. Dinner was yummy :) Here are some pics we snapped while we were getting her ready to leave.

Chillin on the Changing Table




Mille G and Daddy


On Saturday night we went over to Joe's dad's house for more steak (yum!). Millie got to hang out with Aunt Natalee for a while.


This picture was taken earlier in the week, but I think it's cute. She was so worn out that she crashed out on my legs right after a little play session we had.

Happy Three Month B-Day Millie G!

Here are some pics I snapped as we were doing Amelia's night time ritual. She looks like a little chunk in most of them :P

We start off each night with a bath. She doesn't seem to love or hate the bath right now. We'll see if the Pisces in her comes out as she gets older!


Daddy makes her do a little Irish jig to shake the water off of her. She does seem to like this, but she seems to like everything Daddy does :P


After bath, we have a bottle. Here she is towards the end of it being grumpy and messy.


We finally broke her of the swaddle. She now sleeps in these too cute footed pjs. This has allowed her to start sucking on her hands.


Yes, we have a thumbsucker. She sucks her left thumb. Does that mean anything for what hand she will use later?
