This Week . . .

Another week has passed us by in the Miller house. We have had some exciting things happening. Ethan enjoyed his week as "Star of the Week". He brought in three show and tell items on Monday. He brought a helicopter, Thomas firetruck and his karate belt. He also was allowed to bring pictures into class to share with his friends (he was very excited about this!). On Wednesday, we were invited to lunch at school with Ethan. I think Tabitha enjoyed this the most. Everyone knows that Tabitha is just itching to go to school. She asks a least a couple times a week when she can get on the bus and when she can go to school. Next year Tabitha you can go to preschool!

This was how the week started out. Sunday was rough since it was the day after the football game. Ethan and Tabitha were a little tired I think!

This week Tabitha started her gymnastics class! I wasn't so sure how she would do since it took her a whole year to warm up in ballet class. We began class and I decided to sit with her, thinking she would want me close by. She was very clingy and did not want to participate. Of course I am thinking, great, I just paid a lot of money and by the time she finally warms up to taking gymnastics it will be time to move back home! Anyway, after a few minutes of that I asked her if she wanted me to go sit down outside of the gymnastics area. She said yes! I actually was not expecting that response. As soon as I walked away she started to do what everyone else was doing and was having a blast!

You can see Tabitha way off in the distance (sorry, I took these with my phone) in the black leotard hanging off the bar.

Ethan also had football practice again this week. His first game is this Sunday! So exciting! One of his favorite things to do is call the huddle. As you can see, the one thing they all seem to know how to do is huddle! Now for the rest of the game, it can be a little tough going! We'll have to see how Sunday goes.

We are in the midst of getting ready to travel home this weekend. Everyone will be very happy to see our house again and sleep in our beds! We will only be there for 36 hours but I am sure it will be worth the trip. Happy Birthday Caleb! We can't wait to see you on Saturday!
