Miller Time: Where did SUMMER go?!

And just like that, we are already more than halfway through August. Ellison starts school in a week! I can't believe how quickly the summer has flown by. We definitely haven't gotten to everything on my summer bucket list, but I guess that's life!

Ellison has been taking ballet for the past month and is signed up for ballet and tap for the school year. She is adorable in her leotard, tights, and a little bun! She loves to dance - she always asks us to turn music on so she can have a dance party! We have been reading a lot - we've read 2 chapter books this summer. She's done surprisingly well with sitting for a chapter a night on the nights I'm home! She's still obsessed with horses and absolutely convinced that we will be getting one soon. She also wants a goat now (thanks State Fair)!

Kellen is a riot. He's learning lots of new words, and will repeat most words we say. He's teething - again! He runs all over the place, tries to jump, loves climbing up slides, likes dancing and chasing Ellison around. He can be very loud! He knows exactly what he wants and isn't shy about letting us know when he's unhappy. But he's usually a sweetheart and still cuddles sometimes, and loves his blue puppy "wubby". He actually has 3, one that stays at daycare and two that he carries all over the house. He's very into cars, trains, and blocks right now!

Other than that, we've just been trying to fit as much stuff into what remains of summer as we can! I can't believe little Ellison is going to school in a week...she's 3 1/2 years old today! And Kellen will be 1 1/2 soon!
