Cousin Eli came to visit in ATL before we moved 
Last time for Bouncin Bob 
New Hair cut and nose job 
The little Princess 
Joe's new room 
Joseph and Holly have started breaking in the house with their patented style of destruction and chaos. We have enjoyed our first week in Franklin and the kids are loving being so close to their grandparents and uncles Dave and Matt. Earlier last week we finally convinced Joe that it was time for a haircut. We were tired of the question from strangers: did he try to cut his own hair? On a side note, kind of like asking if a woman is pregnant, never do this. Anyways, Big Daddy, Holly and I accompanied him, and he did great until the end when he started crying saying, "What happened to my hair?" He didn't really like the buzzed look, but it looks a lot better than the weird patches he had before.
He is doing fine right now; we go this week for his first oncologist visit in Nashville for blood work, so you can pray for that to go well. He usually has a major freak-out when he realizes someone's going to access his port. Next month we'll go back to St. Judes for another follow-up scan.
I found out about another three year old boy who has GBM a few days ago on the internet. We put up his link to the side. Please check out his website and pray for him and his family as well.

I already admitted being addicted to this blog. Warms my heart big time to see you all enjoying your life...your family is just so loving and amazing (no better words). Thanks so much for the videos. I miss you ALL!
The front yard and house look fabulous & HUGE...no more steep driveways and the kids can ride free! I am so happy for your new home and peace you finding in Franklin. I pray for more good sleep for Joseph, fun times for you all, continued strength & miraculous test results in the coming weeks. Love you all and think of you always.
PS - I like the new haircut...Joe has always had striking eyes and amazing smile and the new look brings them out even more. His smile on those video is too cute!
Lots of HUGS AND KISSS YOUR WAY! Jody
It was so great playing today! Joseph looks great and Grey had so much fun. He wants to play again soon.
Good Morning and THANKS for keeping us a part of your lives through the wonders of technology.
I'm so happy for you to have that great house and FLAT driveway.
I always love your photos and videos and I know you never know what you'll catch on camera, but my heart strings were especially pulled when I heard Joseph say, "I'm so happy right now."
You'll treasure that quote and the sound of his voice forever.
As we prepare to watch Grace graduate, I love to go back to old videos and hear the sound of her little girl voice.
The downstairs foyer at church just isn't the same without you.
Lots of love, Suzanne
Jospeh's words, "I'm so happy now . . ." are so touching. Giving thanks to our Lord for the happiness Joseph experienced that day- riding his bike, playing with Holly, being with Daddy, and running to see Mommy. Your home looks wonderful and knowing you're close to family makes it even more so. We'll be praying for an easy doctor's visit this week! We love you!
Mel & Steve and family

My name is Elizabeth Myatt and we live in Knoxville (friends of the Millers), my husband and I are both from Memphis and maybe know some of your family through some high school friends....Anyway, I have been following your blog for many months and should have posted a comment before now. You all are amazing. You are so encouraging to watch live and Joseph is so blessed to have you all as parents. I have been praying for you all since November and will continue, thanks for keeping this blog so we can see what's going on with your sweet family.
We had so much hangin' out with ya'll on Sunday. That's an awesome playground you have up the street. It was fun to learn all the names of the Cars characters and play cars with Joe and Holly.:)
Talk to you soon.

Glad you are getting settled - I know having your family close will be such an amazing blessing ..... if you have any questions about Vanderbilt's clinic, etc. - please call - will you be seeing Dr. Kuttesch? Ryan's favorite nurses are Susie and Rebecca - they are so incredible and work on kids time - as long as it took for Ryan to get ready - he had it down - walk back to the procedure room, sit in chair, pull his shirt up - oops - I gotta go to the bathroom - I would always try to get him to go before, but we finally decided it was his way of being "in charge" :) - after potty - then back to procedure room and then he would instruct the nurses on what they should do first. My number is 615-452-1574, I am sure there will be some anxiety for all of you heading into a new place - seriously - call you have any questions.
