11.11.11

Many of you may already know this, but these triple dates are cause for celebration in this household.  It all started in our KPMG days when 05/05/05 came around...at 5pm that day we were out celebrating heartily.  We've kept up with the tradition through the years and had some grand plans for 11/11/11.  This one seemed extra cool, since it was all 1's.  However, with our new addition to the family, those grand plans turned into a really fun night out locally. :)  Colleen drove over from Tulsa to babysit; Midge flew in from Milwaukee; friends gathered at Mellow Mushroom for pizza and drinks...it was really nice to get out!  Thank you Colleen & Jamie for making the trip to NWA!

Sunday morning, Midge and I got crafty with Milla for our Christmas cards.  I think the art projects turned out great; can't wait for you all to see them!

Saturday night, John went to Tulsa for Peabody's birthday party; this was our first night without him here.  Sunday morning Millie snuggled up to him pretty good; he was definitely missed...

We purchased yet another new carrier, but oh my, it is worth it.  Millie really loves to face front and be carried around the house this way.  As you can imagine, our arms get pretty tired.  Unfortunately, the Ergo carrier that we already have doesn't allow the baby to be turned around to face front.  Technically, we have the Moby Wrap that could be used to face baby front, but John isn't about to use that thing.  Enter the Baby Bjorn Air carrier...it is really easy to put on and comfy to wear.  Millie loves it...and so does daddy.  How funny are these pics of them watching the game together?!
