Yummy Blueberry pancakes!

It is so fun having 3 little boys! They are always rough housing, and just being goofy. Soon after this picture Berkeley learned how to give a wet willy, and Mark wasn't so happy he taught him.

2010-07-01T10:23:00.000-07:00

So I took Berkeley and Gavin out Saturday, to try and apply any thing I have learned from my photography class. I found a cute little fence on the side of the road and pulled over for our first photo shoot. I think it went relatively well.

2010-07-01T10:18:00.000-07:00

K I obviously need to learn technique on helping my kids to smile.
Me- "Berkeley, do you like swimming?
Berk-" ( no comment)
Me-" Hey do you like candy?"
Berk-" Shrug"

2010-07-01T10:12:00.000-07:00

It was so hard to get a real smile. This was towards the end, I think his cheeks hurt from all the fake smiling, so it's not to big.

2010-07-01T10:09:00.000-07:00

This is the classic Gavin face, so i had to include this picture.

2010-07-01T10:05:00.000-07:00

Gavin was hilarious at our photoshoot, after 5 mintues he kept saying, "all done mom" Yeah since I am a beginner, it takes me a lot more than 5 minutes to get some good pictures.

2010-07-01T10:02:00.000-07:00

As much as I danced and made faces 90% of the time I could not get him to look at the camera.

2010-07-01T10:00:00.000-07:00

This is Everett and Mark, I saw a Kiddie Kandid like this and tried to re-create it.

2010-07-01T09:53:00.000-07:00

Everett is 3 months old now and always smiling!

2010-05-04T11:04:00.000-07:00

Our boys! Berkeley , Gavin and Everett!

2010-05-02T19:21:00.000-07:00

Friday Morning April 30th 2010 Gavin turned 2! Happy Birthday Gavin! We tried to make the day special by getting Buz lightyear fruit snacks throughout the day, having zoom sing plenty of birthday songs and then Mark came home early to play with his boys!

2010-05-02T19:19:00.000-07:00

Blue Berry waffles is the best breakfast for birthdays! Gavin thought lots of whipped cream made it extra special!

2010-05-02T19:17:00.000-07:00

His giggle says it all!

2010-05-02T19:15:00.000-07:00

How fun! Buz, and Woody on his cake. His smile was precious!

2010-05-02T19:11:00.000-07:00

Wow, we made his birthday last 3 days long, on sunday we went to G & G Millers to celebrate Gavins birthday with them. And he got a whole bag full of Buz Lightyear toys. He was one happy boy!

2010-03-28T12:45:00.000-07:00

Everett Lee Miller was born Thursday March 25. He is a miracle to us, and we are so thankful that he made it to us safely. At 36 weeks of pregnancy, I started measuring one week behind every week. Which is unusual for my babies because they have been big, measuring two weeks ahead with both Gavin and Berkeley. Born at 6:31 p.m. we learned why he measured so small, there was a knot in the umbilical cord, which only got tighter as he grew. The next picture is graphic, so don't scroll down if you don't want to see the knot. But to us it represents answered prayers, and a miracle for our family.

2010-03-16T21:36:00.000-07:00

I know it has been almost a year since I have posted anything at all. But I have good excuses which I will not bore you with. But I really wanted to share some pictures of our time down in Spanish Fork for Marks internship. We stayed with my brother Glenn, which helped to make it all possible for us. Upon moving in Mark had a few Mr. Fix it jobs to take care of, and I love this picture because Gavin was trying really hard to get Mark to play with him.

2010-03-16T21:32:00.000-07:00

Time at uncle Glenn's house was fun, but the boys most enjoyed seeing the tree every morning that they decorated.

2010-03-16T21:28:00.000-07:00

Time in Utah would not be complete without a visit to temple square. We were able to go as a family one Sunday and hear Dad sing in the choir. It was really special.

2010-03-16T21:24:00.000-07:00

Going to see Dad sing in the Choir was one of the highlights of our time in Utah. Wow to see all the work that goes into just one Sunday morning , "Sounds of Sunday" Thanks MOTAB!

2010-03-16T21:20:00.000-07:00

Yay for Halloween, Berkeley was so amazed that he was "allowed" to ring door bells and ask for candy. I was worried that he might try this trick on any given day. Gavin on the other hand thought it was torture to walk around in his cute little frog costume.

2010-03-16T21:17:00.000-07:00

Boys wouldn't be boys without trying this stunt! What's the fun of wearing underwear unless you can wear it on your head, right?!

2010-03-16T21:08:00.000-07:00

Another benefit to having Marks internship in Provo, was all the fun times we spent with Grandma and Grandpa Miller. Berkeley really loved making the gingerbread house.

2010-03-16T21:01:00.000-07:00

Salt lake City zoo was totally fun the boys loved it. We had to take advantage of every weekend we could spend with Mark, cuz soon we would return to weekends packed with homework and no time for play.

2010-03-16T20:58:00.000-07:00

While in Spanish Fork Berkeley started Pre-school. This is his first day waiting on Uncle Glenn's porch for the bus with Gavin.

2010-03-16T20:34:00.000-07:00

Berkeley pondering the meaning of pre-school. I was so worried to send him on the bus, but when it pulled up with our hesitation he jumped on and said "bye mom". When he came home I could see the stress in his face, he was thrilled to see me. As he got off the bus he said, " Mom you found me!"

2009-05-03T19:53:00.000-07:00

Saturday we went to Bear World to celebrate Gavin's first birthday. It was so much fun, we saw buffalo, elk, moose, big bears, little bear cubs, and rode some park rides. We had lots of fun together as a family.

2009-05-03T19:49:00.000-07:00

After the Bears we went to the petting zoo, there was a Peacock, chickens, a pig( that we stayed away from) deer, and goats. This deer was really nice as Berkeley touched him, he just sat there and let him.

2009-05-03T19:46:00.000-07:00

The goat was nice too, Berkeley thought the petting zoo was super neat!

2009-05-03T19:43:00.000-07:00

This was a cute ride, they were about 20ft in the air, then it brought them down veerrrrry very slowly, Berkeley got a little worried, but Mark held onto him.

2009-05-03T19:40:00.000-07:00

Gavin loved the train too. It was really nice because we went so early in the morning that we were the only ones in the Amusement park for a while and didn't have to wait in any lines.

2009-05-03T19:37:00.000-07:00

The gift shop was really cute. Who knew this was all just 5 miles away from our house!?

2009-05-03T19:35:00.000-07:00

These two pictures were like the coolest I took, In total they had 37 Bears at Bear world, so we saw plenty!

2009-05-03T19:31:00.000-07:00

2009-04-30T19:43:00.000-07:00

He finally got the hang of it

2009-04-30T19:29:00.000-07:00

Going to bed is way too fun at our house! Berkeley cannot go to bed with out making Gavin laugh. When I leave the room, it is way too fun to stay by the door and listen to these guys laugh and play. They are going to be great friends!

2009-04-26T22:06:00.000-07:00

Gavin was totally attacking B-man it was so funny.

2009-04-26T21:49:00.000-07:00

Gavin was hitting himself on his belly like Tarzan and I was really hoping to catch him, but this time when he came around the corner he had a hand towel. He is cute any way.

2009-04-26T21:43:00.000-07:00

K this was a victorious moment for Mark and I. We did it, and we were so happy to be crossing that finish line. The run was believe it or not really fun, the first 19 miles went by really fast, but the last 7 were difficult. We will with out a doubt be doing this again, we just don't know when.

Green Canyon Hot Springs

2009-03-01T21:26:00.000-08:00

This weeknd Kirk and Lissa came to visit us in Idaho. We had so much fun, Saturday we went to Green Cayon and enjoyed the natural hot springs. Berkeley had a really hard time leaving( that is putting it lightly) as we were driving away he was crying and saying" Bye-Bye bath".

2009-03-01T21:23:00.000-08:00

There was so much steam, and the water was nice and hot. we really had a lot of fun.

2009-03-01T21:19:00.000-08:00

Berkeley's new favorite thing, is climbing in tight spaces. The only problem is to do so on my shelves means that he is pushing everything that should be there on to the floor. This has become a recent activity to fill his time.

2009-03-01T21:14:00.000-08:00

Our little B-man is so talented! Last week we were having Chinese food and he wanted chop sticks too. Mark and I were both surprised when he ate his entire meal with them, using both hands he used the chop sticks to pick up( not stab) the Beef Broccoli. It took him a while to eat, but he would not use his fork, I tried to get him to use it many times, so he would hurry. Look at how proud he is!

Rexburg Snow Fest

2009-03-01T21:09:00.000-08:00

The snow fest was sooo fun, and cold !! they had sled rides around the park, Berkeley thought the horses were so cool. Although we had everyone bundled really well it was so cold we could only stand to be out side for an hour. It was crazy people were getting ready to jump in a bunch of ice water just to win a beanie.

2009-03-01T21:03:00.000-08:00

Berkeley got a kick out of sledding, it was his first time.

2009-03-01T20:50:00.000-08:00

Gavin was bundled up well, he looked so cute!!

2009-03-01T20:45:00.000-08:00

Uncle Glenn gave the boys a leap Frog for Christmas, Gavin is the biggest fan. He can play with it forever. Thanks Uncle Glenn!!

2009-03-01T20:41:00.000-08:00

When Mark went down to Provo for the internship fair Grandpa sent him back with some goodies for the kids. These new Dinos are Berkeley's new favorite Sacrament toy.

Buttie to the power of 3 !!!

2009-03-01T19:38:00.000-08:00

Check out this cute behind!! Gavin heard the bath water running and crawled to get in, when I took off his diaper the picture was too cute to pass up.

2009-01-14T20:46:00.000-08:00

New Years day we went to 'Jumpin Jacks' this really fun indoor place that had lots of huge blow up toys and slides to climb on. The Dragon was Berkeley's favorite because you crawl right into his mouth.

2009-01-14T20:41:00.000-08:00

Grandma and B-man

2009-01-14T20:37:00.000-08:00

Every Christmas time the Miller family pack in the back of Dad's truck and we go see the Spanish Fork lights. This time is was extra fun because Berkeley was old enough to sit in the back with us. It snowed pretty hard and it was so beautiful.

2009-01-14T20:34:00.000-08:00

They were trying to catch snow flakes on their tongues.

2009-01-14T20:31:00.000-08:00

Gavin's first Christmas. The first present he opened was a baby food mill. He was soooo excited you can see it in his face.

2009-01-14T20:27:00.000-08:00

For Christmas Berkeley finally got a bike. In the summer he would try and steal all the other kids bikes. It was hard for me to fall asleep Christmas Eve because I was so excited for him.

2009-01-14T20:24:00.000-08:00

Our ward Christmas party was pretty fun. Berkeley kept cutting in line to see Santa.

2009-01-14T20:21:00.000-08:00

After b-mans bath Gavin was asleep so I had to put one of my shirts on him. I thought he looked so cute, I had to take a picture.

2009-01-14T20:17:00.000-08:00

Berkeley wanted to climb in its mouth

2009-01-14T20:14:00.000-08:00

Over Thanksgiving mom and dad miller took Berkeley to the Dinosaur museum in Lehi.

2008-11-02T20:45:00.000-08:00

Thursday Oct. 23 Berkeley had his tonsills and adenoids removed. The Dr. Said they were blocking 80% of his airway. We are hoping that this will help him sleep better.

2008-11-02T20:33:00.000-08:00

Poor little B-Man, but thank heavens for Sponge Bob, which kept him entertained in the recovery room.

2008-11-02T20:20:00.000-08:00

Monday October 13th we went to the hay Maze for FHE. It took a lot longer to make it to the end than we thought, but fun all the same.

2008-11-02T20:11:00.000-08:00

Berkeley thought it was great fun to try and squeeze through any cracks in the hay and lose us. He did get through once and we lost him for atleast a couple minutes.

Decorating Halloween Cookies

2008-10-08T20:25:00.000-07:00

Today we decided to decorate Halloween Cookies. I made one first to show him and just let him loose with the frosting. Berkeley thought it was so fun, one knife full of frosting for his cookie, and one for his mouth. I could see it in his eyes,..... " Mom why don't we do this every day?"

2008-10-08T20:20:00.000-07:00

He thought that the decorator should write like a pencil, he was a little frustrated, but it was cute.

2008-10-08T20:17:00.000-07:00

It took me a minute to realize that he was just licking off the frosting.... when he was done he said, " MO PEEZ"

2008-10-08T20:13:00.000-07:00

He was so proud of the finished product. Ofcoarse he had a little help from mom. When we were done, we took them to our neighbors.

2008-10-08T20:09:00.000-07:00

Our little Gavin is sitting. You might think that it looks more like falling, but he stayed that way for quite some time.

2008-10-08T20:00:00.000-07:00

This is a morning ritual with Berkeley and Mark. Berkeley has to do the buckle to Marks book bag before he can say goodbye for the day.

Earning his Keep

2008-10-03T20:15:00.000-07:00

Keeping up with Berkeley recently has been, ummm keeping me on my toes. I am giving him little "chores" to do to keep him out of trouble. Who knew he would think it was so much fun. I think it was the rather large Yellow Glove.

Making Wheat Rolls

2008-10-03T20:09:00.000-07:00

Berkeley has been so much fun to have help in the kitchen. He really added all the ingrediants besides the egg, and only made a semi large mess of the flour.He is growing up so fast.

2008-09-24T22:06:00.000-07:00

Believe it or not this is one of Berkeley's favorite things to do.

2008-09-16T22:11:00.000-07:00

Another photo shoot ! Gavin Layne Miller what a cutie !!!!

2008-09-16T22:03:00.000-07:00

The Gavinator

2008-09-16T21:59:00.000-07:00

2008-09-16T21:43:00.000-07:00

He was so cute, he looked like a little buddah

2008-09-12T20:43:00.000-07:00

This is our cute little family. Last Sunday we went to the gardens up on campus and our friend Brendi took some great pictures of us. We hope you enjoy them.

2008-09-12T20:38:00.000-07:00

2008-09-12T20:33:00.000-07:00

The Gardens were like a huge playground that Berkeley had to see every inch of, it was deffinantly hard to keep him still for a picture unless we were holding him

Happy Birthday Berkeley From Grandma and Grandpa Miller

2008-09-12T19:44:00.000-07:00
