Wheels on the Bus - not

I popped in a CD of kids music that I haven't listen to in awhile. We were going through the cd and Millie totally impressed us by knowing all of the motions to "Wheels on the Bus"! When I tried to video tape her, she had no interest in showing us again. But I thought this video was funny anyway.

Happy Birthday Dad!

Wanted to say Happy Birthday to seriously, honestly, the best Dad any gal could ever have. I think we all have been touched by Dave Davis in our lives and we are all better for it! Here are some of my favorite pictures from way back when. Yes, there are older pictures or Millie/Mama and Millie/Papa and yes, I have newer ones but I love these and looking at them always makes me smile :-)

Happy Birthday Mom!

I have to give a shout to my wonderful, brilliant, supportive mother who shares her birthday today. There are so many but here are some of my favorite photos of Millie and my mom from Millie's younger days.

Show time

Here is Millie telling us about her "not" so good day.

And her performance of "Happy"

Kara and Millie

Together once again! We went up to Kara's house this week to meet her new brother Bryson. Kara and Millie are just one day apart. It was fun to watch them playing together. Kara impressed us with her mad "ABC" skills. Millie was great at sharing and cleared her dinner plate, even asking for seconds! I am going up this weekend to take some pictures of brother Bryson.

Friday morning

Chatting

The public demanded it and I am here for YOU! I hadn't realized but many of my videos are just of Millie doing things. Not really talking. So here are several from the other day of her chatting about whatever. Enjoy!

Car Talk

Where's Siler?

Just a funny video. She is throwing her arms out and almost shrugging her shoulders. It makes us laugh!

Piggy Tails!

Yes this day has come! To see pictures, click here.

School Dayz

I dropped Millie off at school a little early one morning and was able to hang out with the kids for awhile. The kids attacked my camera and wanted to see what I was doing. They were so cute!! Millie's little friend is Bailey but whenever I hold my camera up, she gets this straight look on her face! Usually she is alllll smiles! It's so funny! To see pictures of the kids that day, click here. Videos are below.

Curls

Her hair just started doing this recently. Somedays it curls, other days it is stick straight! To see all the curls pictures, click here.

19 months

Millie is really really advancing as a 19 month old. Her hair is starting to curl which I love! Here are 19 things about Millie's 19th month. Followed by pictures.

1. She is repeating everything you say which is fun (sometimes).

2. She repeats "up" and "down" but sometimes gets them mixed up which is funny.

3. She reads books to herself. We hear her doing that in the mornings.

4. She feeds herself with spoon and fork. And is still eating anything we put in front of her!

5. She brushes her teeth with little to no help

6. She washes her hands without help

7. She loves putting on her clothes. She has pants down pretty well and is just starting to get into putting her shirt on. But that's when she isn't using her shirt as pants!

8. She can name several part of her body (elbow, knee, thigh, toes, foot, leg, tongue, chin, cheeks, neck, shoulders, hair, and then the ear, nose, mouth, etc.

9. She can string words together to make phrases or puts together pairs of words

10. Very into finding out where everyone is. Usually her first question of the day is "Where's Siler?" followed by "Where's Daddy?" or "Where's Mommy"?

11. We think we have figured out one of her sayings. She is constantly yelling what sounds like "DEE-tah, DEE-tah". We are pretty sure she is saying "Clean up, Clean up". Which for the most part makes sense.

12. Still sitting in her big girl chair at the table and seems to enjoy that.

13. Still sleeping in her big girl bed and that seems to be going well. No crying at night or in the mornings. Mat installed video monitors so we can see what she is up to in the mornings. Usually she reads to herself in her bed or gets down and plays with her toys.

14. She is still a dancing machine. Really enjoys music and any reason to dance.

15. She plays well with others and has lots of friends at school. She loves to say "bye bye" to everyone. We are practicing saying "bye bye Bailey" or "bye bye Rita" And if you ask her how her day went, she says "gooooood".

16. They are starting to change her diaper in the bathroom now at school in preparation for potty training. I can't wait to get this started!

17. She loves running and being chased. Her deep belly laugh is really infections!

18. She enjoys putting on lotion after bathtime.

19. Sometimes it's quite a lengthy process to pick her up from daycare. She hates to put on her coat but even more, she doesn't want to leave school!! She really enjoys it there!! It's certainly a good feeling!

Dan O Line

Dan O Line came to visit, even if it was just a few hours. They were on their way home from PR had a big layover in Atlanta. We picked them up from the airport and took them to lunch. It was great to see them and get all caught up!
