Miller Time: K Man

Kellen is 8 months old! We are so lucky to have such a sweet, easygoing little guy. He is all over the place now - crawling, pulling up to stand, climbing up on to things - but he also loves to snuggle! He follows Ellison everywhere and wants to do whatever she is doing. She doesn't always find this fun, but usually she's a pretty good sport.

Kiddos playing together :)

Kellen takes baths in the regular bathtub now and LOVES it. I think he would stay in there all day if we let him!

He's got 7 teeth and seems to be teething again...not sleeping well, drooling up a storm, and chewing on anything he gets his hands on. He's got such a cute little toothy grin. He does well with chewing on little pieces of fruits and veggies that we give him, so it's probably almost time to start moving away from oatmeal and purées to more table food!

As for Miss Ellison, she is becoming quite the outgoing little lady. She always waves and says hi to people when we are out. If they don't hear her or respond, she is usually pretty bummed. She will say, "Mommy, they aren't talking to me!" She always wants to know who people are (although we need to work on asking a little nicer). She was even brave enough to stay at Sunday School by herself recently! But only once :)

Ells loves music and is always dancing. She even entertained the people in line at Old Navy a couple weeks ago by doing some dance moves while sitting in the stroller! She definitely keeps us laughing with all the funny things she says and does.

Someone dressed herself for the Packer game...

I just celebrated a birthday (still can't believe I'm 30). I worked the night before and fell asleep on the couch at 9 pm on my actual birthday, but Jay and I did have a dinner/movie date the following night! And I got to wear a lovely sombrero at El Beso and be embarrassed with cake and a song...

Other than that, just starting to get really excited about the holidays!!! Ellison is SO excited about winter coming, she couldn't wait to get outside when it snowed!
