Miller Family Snapshot 2006-08-28 (With 1 Pic)

Hi again,

First, a note about the attached pictures… I’ve attached three pictures. The one of Micah is the one we’ve used and shared the most. I include it because the other day, Amelia was striking a similar pose. It really weirded us out for a moment. The third is a cross-eyed Owen. He’s not holding a kitchen whisk, either – it’s a “hot air balloon” according to him. There are two other cute pictures I posted to our website/blog/whatever (link at the bottom of the page, of course). I didn’t want to bog email down, but simply had to include them somehow. One is of Owen and Amelia having a great time, and the other is Owen watching Micah on TV (we were watching footage of him because we passed the 3-year anniversary of the accident four days ago). Hope you enjoy! Now, on to the regular part of the update (hee-hee):

We Millers are a happy bunch these days. I have finished working my 52-hr week for the duration of my summer break, so I have three full weeks with the family with NO commitments - work or school. LOVE IT! Jenna is coming back from Montana today (Monday), where she spent the weekend relaxing. She needed time away from the kiddos (don't know why - she's only been taking care of them almost by herself for the last two months!) - so I stayed with the troops while she went off for a weekend of relaxation. We both had a blast (she with her friend, and me with the kids).

We also have a couple of friends coming into town from both east and west - Montana and the Seattle area - for a few days of crazy mayhem (however much mayhem we can get into with little ones running around). =) This after a visit from a very good friend of mine who I grew up with since elementary school, who is now married with two children, living in Boise.

Again I say, "LOVE IT!"

Other than that, there is nothing much new to report. Owen has added "VeggieTales", "Little Einstiens", and "Thank You" (verbalizing in addition to doing the sign language he already knew) to his repertoire. He is also up to 2 ounces of milk a day without any reactions.

Amelia, well, is simply as cute as ever. We found out she is not allergic to ANYTHING food-related - praise God! So we're pretty excited, giving her yogurt, milk, cheese, eggs, WHATEVER! (Ahhh, the simple things in life.)

That about does it. Hope and pray you and yours are dong well. Feel free to drop us a line if you have the time.

Until next time,

We said to our parents, "You grew up in such a black-and-white world!" Our children will say to us, "You grew up in such an analog world!" Jesus probably says to us, "You ALL grew up in such a simple 3-dimentional world. Wait 'til you see what's in store for you!"
