A day in the Country...

This past weekend we went to visit some friends from Physical Therapy school and their two boys. They have a really nice house with their own pond for fishing, and a really cool tree house. Cam loved playing with Tristan and Jason. (Although, she insisted that Tristan was a girl because he has longer hair. I couldn't convince her otherwise.) She fished with daddy without any success, granted her attention span was pretty short when it came to waiting for the fish to bite. But we had a really nice time. Thanks to Patrick and Shannon for letting us come and stay at your home!

Our Little Water Baby...

Cameryn has always loved to swim. We went to the pool today with some friends and these are some of the fun times caught on film. I apologize for the big ole prego lady that is in the photos, if you are weak in the stomach, turn away now ;)

It's a Potty Party...

So basically this week we have been home on the potty...just hanging out and watching movies. Talk about excitement. We're making progress, but we've got a ways to go. If anyone has any suggestions, please share them. I would love some advice on what has worked and what has not. We'll keep you guys posted as I know you are all on the edge of your seats :) I figure as long as she's out of diapers before high school, we're good right?

What a Princess...

I've mentioned that we're going through a "Cinderella phase"...which is funny to me, because I really tried to shield Cam from the whole princess thing for as long as I could. Anyway, the other night, Cam and Chad went to Wal-mart to pick up a few things and they found a
dress-up costume. Why isn't she wearing the Cinderella dress-up dress you might ask? Because Cinderella's dress was blue and Cam wanted the pink outfit. So here she is, as cute as can be...and loving her heels. She is such a girly girl.

Pretty Toes...

So, lately Cam and I have a Saturday night bonding ritual...she has a bath and then we blow dry her hair (she loves having her hair blown dry) and then we paint her toes. We went to Chad's office the other day and his physical therapy assistant noticed that Cam had pretty toes. So she bought her some of the nail stickers to put on her tootsies, because her daughter loves them and she thought Cam would enjoy them too. We tried them out last Saturday and Cam couldn't stop staring at her pretty stickers and showing them to everyone at church on Sunday. All the kids in nursery got a glimpse and a lot of our friends had to look at them too :) She is a riot!

Happy 4th of July!

We had a very busy and very fun 4th of July. We started our day with a ward pancake breakfast at our church...it was supposed to include a flag raising, but that didn't happen. Then Chad and I spent the afternoon painting the new baby's room. It looks really good, but I don't think that I will be painting anything else until after the baby comes...I'm a bit clumsy and it's exhausting. We ended our day with a big BBQ with friends from our ward and neighborhood. We had so much fun and the kids had a blast. The kids really liked the sparklers until the sparks landed on their skin and then they lost all of their appeal. Cam got nervous when Chad would set off the really loud fireworks, but overall she enjoyed them. I think the dads enjoyed the fireworks more than the kids :) Especially the "Ring of Fire". I am attaching a picture of the "Ring" for anyone that has yet to witness it's awesomeness.

My New Favorite Quote...

We took Cameryn to see "Kung Fu Panda" today and it was hilarious. My new favorite quote comes from the comedic genius of Jack Black when he says, "There is no charge for awesomeness."
