December 26, 2010 (A Stray Cat)

This stray cat wandered into our yard often and tried to adopt us. Daddy is not a cat person! We got some puppies a few weeks later and that was the last we saw of this cat.

December 23, 2010 (First Birthday)

September 10, 2009 was Katie’s first birthday. This is her at one year old. The picture on the right is her with her birthday breakfast cake.

December 23, 2010 (Katiebug)

So the name ‘Katydid‘ never stuck — we ended up calling her ‘Katiebug’.

December 22, 2010 (Last July, 2009)

This is Gran and Katie at Cade’s Cove in the Smokies, east Tennessee. So we’ve not put anything new here in about a year and a half. To make it up to you, for the next several days we’ll be adding a single picture from each month that we missed, so you can see what [...]

June 15, 2009 (9 Months Old)

Hi everybody! I turned nine months old a few days ago. I still don’t have any teeth, but I’m crawling around on my hands and knees now, no more army-man crawling! I thought you guys might like to see some video of me, taken by the mommy-cam.

April 4, 2009 (Blueberry Muffins)

So a few weeks ago, I saw a video on youtube that was all about parents giving babies lemons to watch their faces. Some of these babies were older, but a lot of these babies were about Katherine’s age (so it looked) and it got me thinking. Babies start with milk and move to rice [...]

December 22, 2008 (A Cozy Nap)

December 20, 2008 (White Christmas)

Katherine’s third month birthday was December 10, and the very next day it snowed in Mississippi. Talk about a happy birthday present. It didn’t snow long, and it turned to slush very quickly, but it sure was fun to see snow for Christmas! Katherine won’t remember it, but it’s neat to think it snowed her [...]

October 30, 2008 (7 Weeks)

So Katherine has come around on baths now. Apparently she loves them. This is good news for us. Katherine and I spent some time outside yesterday watching the sky and the trees. Very exciting for both of us. Katherine likes waking up in the morning about as much as I do.

October 19, 2008 (Autumn Is Here)

This past week has definitely led to an overall feeling of autumn! Sweaters were brought out, warm drinks were made, apples and caramel were eaten, autumn scented candles were lit, and frolicking was to be had as well as long, lazy, afternoon naps, movies were watched all snuggled in blankets, and friends and family have [...]

October 10, 2008 (A Month Old)

I’m a month old today! To celebrate, here’s some pictures from my day:

October 4, 2008 (Our Katydid)

What’s a Katydid? I’m glad you asked. Many people don’t know that a Katydid is a singing bug in the cricket family that looks like it’s half grasshopper, half leaf and sounds like a cicada. ‘Katydid’ is also our affectionate nickname for baby Katherine. Hello, little Katydid!

September 24, 2008 (Two Weeks Old)

Hi everybody. I just turned two weeks old today, so I thought I’d let you guys know what I’ve been up to. Today, Daddy read a book to me. It was Dr. Seuss. I don’t understand any of the words yet, but I really like the pictures a lot. They’re very colorful. My Mommy and my [...]

September 22, 2008 (Two Gorgeous Ladies)

I took this picture yesterday afternoon after a great visit from a friend, just before a nice long nap. I think Sarah and Katherine are two incredibly gorgeous ladies!

September 21, 2008 (Sleeping In)

Sleeping In I understand if a baby’s doing really well, she’ll sleep through the night at 6-8 weeks old. If not, it could be years. I have friends whose nearly-year-old kid still wakes them up three times a night. So you can imagine how blessed we feel that, at 11 days old, Katherine has slept through [...]

September 15, 2008 (Her First Five Days)

Katherine is now five days old, almost to the minute, and she couldn’t be doing better. We took her to the doctor for a quick scheduled check-up today and they were very pleased with how well she’s doing. She’s most of the way back up to birth weight now, and I expect she’ll be growing [...]

September 10, 2008 (It’s a Girl!)

Sarah and I have a baby! Katherine Grace Miller was born today at 4:28pm by C-section. She’s 7lb,6oz, measuring 20.5 inches. Thanks for your prayers! Here are some not-too-icky pictures of the little one: Hello World! Yeah, that’s my ugly schnoz in the top left. Katherine’s First Moments: This is Katherine on the table being cleaned [...]

September 6, 2008 (5 days to go!)

Although I am writing this on Saturday with 3 days to go, these pictures were taken Thursday night, which according to my due date, gave us 5 days to go until September 10 arrived!! (Click to view these at full size) News about what the doctor says: Katherine is a wonderfully healthy weight. Their best guess [...]

May 14, 2008 (Our Biggest News)

OK, it’s update time. I’m not sure if it’s been long enough yet, but I figured hey, what the heck, I’ll throw a post up anyway. We’ve probably had enough happen in the last four months since the last post for me to be able to write something. So in order not to spoil you, [...]
