10 Months


Happy 10 Months to Cole Miller! I know I say it every time, but SERIOUSLY he can't be this old? This little dude is W-I-L-D! I've mentioned before that he's in to everything and that is no joke! Most of my family and friends say they can't get over at how fast he can crawl and get whatever he has his eye on! Notice the picture below, every cabinet is open and he gets EVERYTHING out!
He has also started "cruising" around his toys and he will stand up freely in the middle of the room (I couldn't get a picture of that unfortunately).
He LOVES animals! At my Mom's house he sees her dog, Lula, and immediately starts giggling and goes after her! Here he is at my Dad's!
I don't know why, but I think babies sitting on their knees is the cutest thing ever!

Here are some highlights from this month:
-We have two front teeth (well almost)
-He is free standing
-Weighing in at 19 lbs
-Says: Mama, Dada, Bubba, ball, and ugh oh
-Loves blueberries, grapes, goldfish, pretzels, and oddly enough.... hummus!
- Giving "hi 5"
- Clapping

Happy 10 months Cole!!!!!

Not the reaction I was hoping for!

I have learned, since having kids, that nothing goes the way you anticipate! Cole loves the bath and I figured he would love a good bubble bath, but like his brother, he HATED his 1st bubble bath! He was absolutely TERRIFIED. He went crazy trying to get out of the bath!
As a matter of fact, the next night he heard the tub running and immediately started screaming! Clearly they didn't get this from their Mama, because you can find me in a bubble bath at least 5 nights a week! Oh well.. maybe next time!

And We're Off!

On Sunday, this happened!
And needless to say he's only getting faster and nosier!

Splish Splash

This is a nightly ritual at our house, although a tad messy it makes me laugh! I love my boys and so glad they have each other. I pray every day that they remain close!

9 mths and Nosey!


Can you help but smile at this face? Cole Miller is now 9 months old, this is hard for me to swallow... he's 3 months from being 1.. thats crazy! He has really changed the past month, he's gained 3 lbs, crawls... well scoot/slides backwards, tries to pull up on things and stand alone, and have I mentioned he's SUPER NOSEY. WOW....he cranes his neck at everything, if he's within reach he grabs it, if there's a crumb he finds etc.
He is really in to eating too. He doesn't really want his baby food, he wants what Momma has! Despite his 2 teeth he thinks he can eat anything!

He can say: Mama, Dada, Bubba (Grant), and ball

Even though he's not fully crawling he finds a way to get to what he wants, he gets on his stomach and slides or he just turns around as far as he can and reaches, he is one limber little dude! I swear in another life he'd be an Owl because he tries so hard to turn his neck completely around, again I say, he's NOSEY!
These next few pictures kill me! I noticed he had been doing this a lot....
But I thought he was just trying to get something off of the coffee table. But later that morning we were in Grants room playing trains and I got up to get something, turned around and found this..
I freaked out! I am 99% sure that Grant didn't pull up until he was completely crawling. Everyone keeps teasing me saying he'll walk before he crawls but I sure hope that is not the case!

Something else he does... what I like to call the "tee-pee" stance! Seriuosly he tries to stand up. He'll move his hands and try to raise his body up. Sheesh.. Im gonna have my hands full.
And.. he is totally crazy about this dude..
He LOVES Grant and the feeling is mutual! Grant smothers him (a little to much sometimes!) with love and every time Cole sees him coming he squeals and kicks his little legs!
Our afternoons usually consist of this.. playing cars in the hall!


And for my last picture... he's straight up BUSTED. Little stinker opened the box of wipes and pulled out half of them. I have a feeling once he's seriously mobile.. he's gonna keep me BUSY!
I love my little Nosey Rosey! (PS. I have NO idea why this turned blue.. weird)

Santa came!

The boys must have been good this year because Santa left a pile of goodies! And of course we have proof that he was here...
He tried all of our cookies!
We started the morning off in our matching Christmas pjs... but...
after a leaky diaper and Grant spotting the new batman pjs our attire quickly changed!



We had a great Christmas morning! Each year it gets better and better! So thankful for my beautiful family and for what Christmas is all about!
