He is Risen! Today we celebrated Easter with my parents at Johnson Ferry. Miller was reunited with all his nursery buddies he plays with on Tuesday mornings. We dressed him in his cute little sear sucker shortall, knee socks and his new Easter shoes. These are very special shoes because these are the first shoes that he's been officially measured for. Landon and I chuckled this morning because they look so big on his feet, but we're trusting that they got his measurements right. If anything, he has room to grow into them over the next several months. Grandmama and Poppy called them "ski's" that will help him balance to stand and walk:)
It was so much fun to watch all the children at church in their Sunday best, girls in their pretty Easter bonnets and older boys in their sear sucker suits and bow ties. Celebrating Easter was so much more than being wow'ed by everyone's Sunday best. It was a celebration of the death and resurrection of Jesus. We have loved celebrating the season with egg hunts & even a visit with the Easter bunny, but we can't wait to tell Miller the real story behind Easter!
Our family enjoyed an early Easter dinner over at Grandmama and Poppy's house. Miller so loves his Poppy. Everyday, my dad rushes home to greet and play with Miller. This is what they have been working on over the last few weeks. Poppy has taught Miller how to twirl the Frisbee on the floor. They performed this new feat this afternoon. We think it's adorable. Check it out.
I know I have been "video happy" over the last few days. I feel like I am making up for lost time. It also gives us an opportunity to share Miller with Omi and Grandpa in Knoxville.
Here is a flashback picture of Miller last April. Of course, Easter was later last year so Miller was already born. He was two weeks old last Easter, so today he is actually celebrating his second Easter. We placed newborn Miller right on the table as part of the centerpiece last year...and he didn't move!! Martha Stewart commented on Friday's show that we will not have an Easter this early in March for another 200 years. I prefer Easter in April. Something about children wearing winter coats over their Easter best doesn't seem right!

Another Mommy and me picture...
Miller enjoyed his day in spite of his 101 fever. My guess is that he is teething AGAIN. He just cuddled and snuggled with me after church. Miller took an extra long nap and the Tylenol also helped him to act like his normal self. We are praying that whatever is ailing him will work itself out before his birthday. We hope you had a wonderful Easter with family and friends. Ours was Eggs cellent!
