It's like we want her to be a spoiled princess

While Rachel's mom was staying with us after Marie was born she busied herself by whipping up this dress. I think it is so awesome that Marie may have to re-use it as her wedding dress.

It can be kind of hard to get a picture of Marie without her gnawing on something. We've been meaning to get her a dog bone to gnaw on. But we haven't yet, so...
She gnaws on her index finger. A lefty, perhaps?


She gnaws on her whole fist at once. Who is she, foxy Larry from Groundhog Day?

Sometimes she goes with the fist-blanket combo.

And then sometimes she just eyes the camera, wondering how awesome it would be to gnaw on.

The work is gnaw. As you know, I don't usually misspell words.

The word is word, not work Bubs. Was this intentional and I bit hard for it or what? This is too easy.

I only comment ever to correct spelling errors by the Bubs. It's how I get his goat.

Matt said...

Bubs I was contemplating correcting the spelling error. But that was classic, you misspelling a word while correcting a spelling error. Plus, John you only had to say it once.

I spelled it "gnaw." I don't know what you guys are talking about...well prove it.

The Bubs said...

Ask Ange... I was laughing just thinking of the comments that would pour in. Very Funny. The funny thing is I also tried to misspell "misspell" but I accidently spelled it right.

In conclusion, it was intentional, and John did bite hard.

Matt said...

Bubs, it's not accidently, it's accidentally. Let me guess Bubs, that was intentional as well. Unbeleivable.

The Bubs said...

Hmm. That was a mistake, but in my defense, I don't even know how to spell misspell.

Plus, I'm sure when Brett and Rachel see there are 9 comments, they're hoping for tons of comments about how cute Marie is. Unfortunatly (purposefully misspelled)the Millburn brothers seem intent on hijacking this posting. Better luck next time.

Yes Matt, it is "unbeleivable." Boo-ya

Okay...you guys are funny...Marie looks absolutely precious and I am excited to hold her! You will be coming to Idaho during Christmas time, right? Have I spelled everything correctly?

I don't need validation for how cute Marie is... but I sure like it!
Besides, anytime you want to sturt a comment train on my blag- don't hesitart.

Matt said...

First and foremost Brett, odviously I misspelled unbeleivable on purpose. I am well aware of the i before e except after c rule. But the main point of this comment is to point out that Bubs odviously didn't know that I misspelled it or he would have corrected it.

Matt said...

Plus, Marie is cute.

Tammi said...

MARIE IS ADORABLE! The dress is beautiful! And I, too, hope she is coming to our side of Idaho during the holidays! Any possibility? What about the rest of you Millburn boys, do we get to see you during the holidays? I hope so. And I am not even joking! Much love!

Stockton said...

Brett,I Can Prove It. You Still Have The Word "nawing" On Your Blog. Okay, I Proved It. Now, What's My Prize?

And By The Way Matt, What Does Odviously Mean?

The Bubs said...

Congrats Brett on getting tons of comments by simply posting pictures and spelling gnaw wrong. I haven't seen comments like this since I posted Goundhog Bubs (which nobody commented that I spelled groundhog wrong) or Helpful Bubs. Actually Helpful Bubs didn't have as many comments... I just still think it's funny that I helped name Mike and Christen's baby.

The Bubs said...

Plus, did Matt seriously make fun of me for not falling for the same trick I made him fall for earlier?

The Jensen's said...

I hope all you guys never comment on all my grammer issues on my blog! Ha ha.. I think I slept through 1st period English class a bit to much!! Brett, Marie is the cutest baby ever and I love her blessing, I mean wedding dress, that Rachel's Mom made. SOOOOO CUTE!!! Also, could her eyes be any bluer?

Matt said...

Tammi, I think we are all coming up on the 26th. That would be my guess. Of course I'll just go when others go. Brittany, it's not to much, it's too much.

Mike said...

Um, it's grammar, not grammer. Say, this is fun! Plus, it's not the grammar that is at issue here, it is the speling.

Bubs,

In your "helpful bubs" post you had Sky as #15. I guess I should inform you that we named our daughter Skye not Sky. You would probably know that if you ever read our blog. Plus, the name was picked out LONG before we knew what we were having. Notice we never commented on that post. Mostly because it was annoying that you listed Sky (the name we were going to use w/o the e) with a bunch of crap names. Denoying!

FitzSimmons Times said...

WOW! I can't wait to see you guys at Christmas time and hear all this chatter in person! Marie's dress is beautiful and she does look like a princess!

Brett - Rachel B said...

Hahaha! I love that the true feelings about Bubs list have finally come out!
Don't worry Mike, most people like the name Skye, and it goes perfectly with Larkin.
Maybe I will re-examine Bub's list for future babies names...

The Bubs said...

I can't believe that Mike thinks Shabazz is a crap name.

mike m. said...

I think everyone knew the true feelings about the name list without saying anything. Bubs' intention was to irritate to begin with...that is the nature of the Bubs. And I've never been worried about what people think of Skye's name....

Chad said...

Happy Birthday Brett!

When I saw that this post had 26 comments, I thought that everyone else must be here wishing you birthday wishes. Gess knot. :)

Anonymous said...

Haha, no doubt, Chad. I thought the same thing. Maybe next year.

The Bubs said...

I think I'd prefer the title "rabble-rouser". Plus, I don't need to wish Brett happy birthday, because I called him up today and reminded him that BYU was playing Weber State on BYU TV.

I'm pretty sure that's the best present he got all day.

But Happy Birthday. Plus, Happy Birthday to Chad tomorrow. I suppose I'd better get on over to "Full of It"...
