Play Dates

Liam and Aunt Haylie came over the other night for a play date. These two kids usually play pretty good together, but for some reason Allie wasn't having it. It was driving her crazy to see Liam playing with all her toys. She kept running after him and trying to take whatever he had. She would then look at Haylie and myself to see if we would do something.

All night they wanted to play with these dumb Thunder sticks. They kept attaching each other, Haylie and myself.

Here's Allie saying " Will you please get him out of my toy"

My Allie

Just some more pictures of my little Allie. She sure is growing and it's crazy to think that next week she will be 18 months. Where has the time gone?????

She loves, loves wearing Brock and I shoes.

She loves looking at herself in the mirror. She makes the funniest faces. The other day I saw her looking at herself in this mirror holding a book. I guess she wanted to see what she looked like reading. I was laughing so hard......She is so silly and cute.

This is what Brock and Allie got me for Valentines day. A mouse pad and coffee mug for me to take to work. So cute.......

My Visit with Cara

Yes, it has been a while since I have written a post. It's been a little busy in the Miner household. The first weekend in February I went to Florida to visit with Cara before Peyton arrives. It was mostly a girls weekend and I had a blast. We went out to dinner for Cara's 29th birthday to the Melting pot. Friday we laid out at the pool all day and drank. :) I had some delicious cocktails, and Cara has the virgin alternatives. My body also hasn't seen the sun in like 2 years, so needless to say I got burnt!! They live in a retirement community, and I have to say that I have never ever seen that many old wrinkly bodies in 2 pieces in my life. Man I sure hope I can retire that way. We also went and saw the movie "Dear John". Shopped a little and did a whole lot of nothing.. My favorite vacations..... Here are a few pics from my visit.

Yes, Cara and I had to go down the slides.

My lunch....

The next time I see these two, they will be parents. I am so excited to meet Peyton.

Yeah, they have alligator everywhere in their community. Freaked me out a little.

Our first ponytail..

Allie, like myself, has really thin hair. I can not get any bows or clips to stay. I picked up Allie from school yesterday and Ms. Terri was able to put a little ponytail at the top of her head. She looked so cute. Here are a few pictures I was able to take.

Thank you....

I have to say that I have the most loving husband you could ask for. Brock stayed home with Allie while I was in Texas with Jill and John for 7 whole days and nights!!! I did not think that I was going to really make it that long but I did. I know they missed me, but survived. Now, I will have to thank him again in 2 weeks, as I head off to Florida to visit Cara before Mr. Peyton arrives. :) Am I a lucky girl or what!!!!!

My Niece is Here!!

Welcome to the world big girl. Harper Jenni Bohnen was born on January 14th at 7:26am. She weighed 9 lbs and 12 oz. And was 20 1/2 inches long.


They scheduled a cesarean for the morning of the 14th, because they did an ultrasound on Wednesday the 13th, ( 4 days after her due date, and no signs of coming out anytime soon) and realized that Harper was around 10 lbs. Those of you who know my sister know that she is not very big at all, and there is NO way that a 10 lb baby was going to squeeze out of her. Mom, her friend Geoff and I hit the road to Cedar Park, Texas Wednesday night. We finally arrived at 11pm that night and got a few hours of sleep before the big day. Here are a few pics of the little family of 3 ( and some friends)...

Look at all that dark hair!!!

Proud Daddy!!

Cute pics of my Allie
