Bryan's 2nd Birthday

We were so happy to be able to spend Bryan's second birthday in our new home. After the first birthday, we typically keep birthdays small, inviting only immediate family and close friends to celebrate with us. My mom, grandmother and nephew came along with Gauntie Kat and our good friend Chris. I made dinner and we, of course, got a little cake.

I don't think Bryan really knew what was going on but he loved being surrounded by so many people. He also loved the gifts, of course.

We started the day with donuts. It was worth the mess!

Then we had a balloon party. Also worth the mess!

We had some spaghetti outside for lunch. We are just full of messes today!

We got him a work bench. He loves this thing.

We also got him a bubble machine. Best $10 I've ever spent.

He liked opening the gifts but he's still wants to play with them as he opens them.

Nana got him a new bike and G Kat got him slippers that he refused to take off!

And we had cake!

After everyone left, the boy was exhausted and was mad that he couldn't carry all of his new toys with him everywhere.

He fell asleep in my lap, balloon in hand.

I'm going to go out on a limb and say that he had a great day. He loved all his new gifts and h loved spending time with everyone who came. I can't believe he's already two!

Blog Commenting Challenge!

Linking up with Jenna's Journey for the 3rd Annual Blog Commenting Challenge! Hi! I'm Vanessa! I live with my husband Bryan and my amazing 6 month old Ashlyn in Pennsylvania. I was born and raised here and love it very much! We have 2 pugs, Katie and Utley, one black lab, Camo and one cat, Joey. Our second cat, Kitty, is sadly recently deceased (on Father's Day). I work full time as a Marketing Analyst for a supply chain consulting firm. I don't even know what that means really! I have been here for 3 years and am thinking about a career change. SAHM is looking better and better. My husband owns his own landscaping business which has been both wonderful and horrible at the same time! My husband and I know each other for about 17 years now and we have been together for 12. We got married in September of 2010, just 2 weeks shy of our 10th anniversary! We got pregnant after only 2 months of trying and last December we were greeted by Ashlyn Marie Miller,

I'm Not Gonna Lie

Anyone who knows me know that I LOVE Christmas. I love the decorations. I love to decorate my own house and see all of the other cool decorations other people have. There is a house down the street from us that always has more lights and decorations than I have ever seen in one yard. It's a bit much but it's an attention grabber. I love the Christmas tree. I love to get the tree out each year (yes we have a fake because I can't stand the needles) and I love to decorate it. Growing up, our family would decorate the tree together with all kinds of ornaments that we had collected over the years. I like to do themes for my trees. Last year I did pink and silver in honor of the newest member of our family. I'm really hoping to instill the tradition of decorating the tree with my kids. I love finding the perfect gifts for people and I love to watch their reactions when they open those gifts. I generally wait until I have purchased ALL of my gifts, I sort them

Big News!

We have been trying very hard to keep this to ourselves for just a little while longer but I can't wait anymore! Baby Miller #2...due 09/01/13!!!!!!!!! I am 8 weeks and 1 day I have known since Christmas Eve I am much more tired and much more nauseous this time around I haven't gained a single pound yet, unlike last time I am not so secretly hoping it's another girl If this one is anything like Baby Girl, he or she will be born mid-August I've been leaving hints all over the place but no one noticed! I am so excited! I've already had one doctor's appointment but I was only 7 weeks so there wasn't much to do. We couldn't hear the heartbeat or anything so the next appointment will be much more exciting! My next appointment isn't until February 11th so that's when I'll get to hear and possibly see my next little monster! So exciting! PS: Notice the blog title?!

We are the Millers
