Pretty, Pretty flowers

Dress up day at school!  The outfit was designed by Addie Blaire herself!

 Little sis needed a picture too!! Although these days she is a blur in most of them!  She doesn't walk anymore she runs!

 Little Brit and Miss Harper.  I got to see Harper Grace a few weeks back and boy is she a cutie!  She was in awe of Brit and Brit was a little unsure about her.  She is so used to be the little one that it took some time to realize that she was the big girl for once and it was kinda funny to watch.

 I met my sister and bro law at Garvin gardens one Saturday afternoon for some photos in the beautiful tulips they have each year.  Addie Blaire loves to go each year because she is a big fan of the pretty flowers.  This was the first year to have Britann walking around and she was more a fan of the pretty dirt! 

 Refusing to take pictures, she looks really mad, huh!

 Aunt T and Lila, pretty girls!

 Like I said playing in the dirt! But at least it stopped her for a photo.

 I loved this picture because the color in her pants and these flowers were just so pretty.

 Happy happy girl

 Note to self... don't leave your sister in charge of your child for 5 minutes or else she maybe standing on a cliff next to a waterfall!!  Just wanted everyone to know this was not my idea!

 Uncle B and Lila checking things out.

 These next to pictures are proof of how much this child goes.  She is on the go til she just falls out literally...

Mardi Gras!

We have loved this beautiful early spring this year and so we are spending as much of our time outdoors.  Little Brit Brit is in major motion these days so trying to catch a picture is a challenge.  The girls are growing so fast so I am trying to keep up with this blog to document all that is our life these days. I hate that I seem to be falling farther behind every day so I have set the goal to get back on track.  Here's hoping I stick to eat better than my other new year's resolutions!!

Sweet Addie Blaire! 

Little Brit Brit!

We went over to the Coffee's on Fat Tuesday for a little Mardi Gras fun.  The girls really got into the action and soon we were delivering the kids in the neighborhood beads and goodies!I guess it was the most fun anyone has had on Mardi gras or at least the "PG" version!

The girls and their masks.  We had a few treats like moon pies and cookies.

Little Brit Brit got the hang of this thing really quick. I don't think I want to see this picture in 18 years though!

After we had our treats we took off through the neighborhood to share the weath of beads that mrs. jodi had on hand.  The girls loved running up to the houses full of beads.  Although I did notice Addie was a little stingy with the really cool ones!!  I am sure the parents were thrilled to see us coming.

Just had to attach this one that Lashonda got of Brit and her buddy Canon one day.  How sweet is that with her arm around him?

Bobo got married on Leap Year this year.  So we went up to Hot Springs for the wedding.  Addie Blaire had been asking if she was the flower girl.  I guess being in one wedding got her spoiled.  Now she thinks she is supposed to be in them all!  So they hooked she and Katie Ella up with a flower and the two of them along with Mason stood up front. Little Brit was a little bit too young for such duties! Congrats to Bobo and Mrs. Sharon we wish them all the best!! 

Mason and Addie Blaire

and Katie Ella

Little Brit! By the way, Meredith Woodruff (in case you see this) your dad wanted you to see these shoes they have the "Miller" logo.

So proud of herself for fulfilling all her duties!

Randomness as usual at our house!

I am trying to pick up where I left off and it is getting harder and harder to keep up so here goes some random times by Jill.

Mitch and I were so excited to get to go to the Cotton Bowl this year.  It was a nice quick little getaway for us both.  We enjoyed a nice dinner together on Thursday night and fun with friends and others the day of the game. Once again the stadium was awesome and the Razorbacks won so that made for a nice end to the weekend. 

Miss Britann is growing like a weed these days!  She is doing all sorts of things.  She is now in the 50% for height and weight.  She is talking more and more each day.  She actually said "night night" the other evening when I was putting her in bed.  Luckily we were able to get it on tape because it caught us both by surprise.  She is doing more talking in 2 words then she is one which is a little backwards if you ask me.  She is learning where her body parts are, even though she can't say some of them she does know them.  She is great about understanding commands like "go get your shoes" she runs straight to her closet.  The other night I handed her a washcloth and told her to wipe up something on the floor and to my amazement she did exactly that.  She knows the word "that" she won't say cup or food, but she will point and say "that".  So I guess she actually has it all figured out.  She is still loving watching her big sister and "Addie" seems to be one of her favorite words although most of the time she is yelling it around the house, ( no idea where she gets that yelling her name couldn't be from me in the mornings trying to coax her out of bed and getting her dressed)  She also loves to run, she is getting quicker and quicker.  She is quite the little climber, I never know what to expect she can actually do.  She really loves to feed herself as well.  She will not let you feed her anymore she had to be in control!  This picture is evidence of that!

 Love this kiddo!! 

 Celebrating daddy's birthday in January.  The girls picked out this sweet Thomas the train cake.  Addie was a little concerned though "why none of daddy's friends came to his party?!!"  Poor guy good thing we got such a small cake. 

 Addie Blaire is all about some dressing up these days.

 These pictures will take a little explaining.  Everyone that knows us well they know Zoe as well!  If you have ever had the pleasure of coming to the house you will never forget her either.  She has this nice extremely loud scream that seems to show up... well every time we do!!!  But you also know we love us some Zoe, of course kids have changed things some but she was our first child and I seem to still feel that way about her.  She has been so great with the kids and such a champion on three legs for the last 9 years!  A few weeks back Zoe couldn't walk anymore.  She couldn't even walk two steps without her leg giving out.  I was devastated.  I couldn't watch her, I couldn't talk to anyone about it.  I wore sunglasses to work because I was balling my eyes out all day. Well, the next morning I decided I had to take her to vet, fearing I knew what he would say.... so with tears in my eyes I had the girls take "the final pictures' with Zoe.  I was balling crying trying to explain to Addie Blaire why she had to take a picture with her and telling her to say goodbye.  It was quite dramatic I must admit!  Anyways, I cried the whole way to Arkadelphia because that is where she goes to the vet ever since her surgery.  Yes, Mitch allowed me the pleasure of driving her there!  My dad was good enough to meet me there.  I explained to the vet what was happening and to my surprise he said he thought he could help her with some medicine she could possibly walk again!!  I was so thrilled, and needless to say these pictures will be timeless in our collection of mom's insanity!!  She is doing better we give her medicine once a day and it does seem to help.  Don't get me wrong she won't be chasing any squirrels anytime soon but hopefully she will be around for as long as we can take care of her. 

 Mommy and me muffin day at school!  Kinda wish it had been the donuts the dads got, so not fair but loved getting to go with my girl.

 All aboard restaurant in Little Rock.  We had to give it a try at least once. Pretty cool!

 Aunt T gave Addie this doll a few years back for Christmas and well Addie was a tad frightened of the thing that was until Britann got ahold of her.  She loves to drag her around the house now.  It is so funny she is trying to kiss on her and hold hands.  It is pretty funny to witness trust me.

 If ever I needed proof that my eldest child has a little of my OCD behavior in her here it is.  This is what I walked into one night at the house.  At least everyone was served and biggest to smallest no doubt.

 Fun times with cousin Katie Ella mudding through the neighborhood.  Becky may never let her come over again after this precious outfit and Toms were covered in mud when she arrived.

Valentine's Day!

Well I guess by now it is just a sure thing that I will be a season behind on all my posts but once again here I go with a little catch up session.  We got one small little snow shower back in January and the kids took advantage quickly before it was all long gone.  We played a little, ate a little, and threw a whole lot of it on Mrs. Lashonda.  I think the little ones still have a ways to go in there appreciation for things snow related but they were good sports.  Addie Blaire was only wishing for more so she could sled like last year.  I think all that snow spoiled her!

Brit and Cannon checking things out.

 Thanks to Nona we are wearing our snow suit for the last year.  Little tip it pays to buy big because her garage sale find has lasted us over three seasons!

 Valentine's day this year was alot of fun considering this was our first time to have to make real valentines for Addie Blaire's class.  She and I worked on them over the weekend and I thought they turned out pretty cute and definitely homemade!  She was so excited to take her bag full of goodies to all her friends.

 Mrs. Lashonda even arrived that morning with valentine treats for all the kids which made her a big hit!

 Little Brit Brit knows one thing now and that is that she is just like her mommy, a lover of all things chocolate!!!  I thought I would never pry her fingers away.

 Garret Memorial this year didn't want deliveries so you could order a bear for your child with a note and Addie seemed to really enjoy getting that surprise instead.

 We were able to bring balloons to their party so Addie couldn't quit staring at this cute little guy. 

 The only reason this picture is here is because I couldn't get a shot of the little boy on the other side of the balloon.  She was playing a little kissy kissy game with Micah and got caught by mom!!  She better be glad that balloon was in the middle or daddy would have something to say about it I'm sure!

 Addie and Livi

 Our after school Sonic run. 

 The kids all enjoying their treats, as you can tell Zoe is still waiting on hers!

 And you may ask what this would be, well let me tell you this is not your average photo of a valentines present but then again you are not married to Mitch Bobo.  God love my husband but he knows I have a strong liking for turnips and he went and had these hand picked for my valentines meal that night.  Yes, ladies he is already taken so don't be knocking my door down!!  But I must say I probably enjoyed them just as much as I would have all the chocolate and he won't have to hear about how I am so fat from all the sweets this year which is a definite plus for him!

 While we were cooking our valentine meal I went to check on Addie, thinking she was playing in her room and found her sound asleep in her tent.  I guess we Bobo's know how to party on the big V day!
