Noah Crawling

Okay I know it seems that I am addicted to blogging lately, but so much has been going on that I want to share with all of you. This being HUGE at our house this evening, Noah is crawling finally!

I wanted to share with everyone my latest project, Cameryn's room. I decided about a month ago that I wanted to paint polka dots on her walls. I first tried to use a stencil...that did not work at all. My last resort was to paint them free handed and it quickly came to that. So yes folks everyone of those circles were painted by yours truly. Cameryn loves her new "big girl" room so it was all worth it. I am also putting a picture of my cousin, grandpa, and brother on here. It is one of my favorite pictures taken at my Grandpa's party.

We celebrated my Papa's 80th birthday this weekend and had so much fun. He was very surprised and the whole thing was pretty emotional. Papa had lots of friends and family there and the day was beautiful. I will put some pictures on here and then some videos later. Happy Birthday Papa, We love you!

Not only do we live with a dancing princess but we also now live with a binkie thief! Our new dog Scooter swipes Noah's binkie whenever he gets a chance. He will even go up and take them out of his mouth. After he gets the binkie he runs like crazy and hides so no one can find him. Last night Chad almost body slammed the living room floor trying to catch the quick little sucker. Needless to say Noah is not too crazy about the new dog.

Here are some more pictures from our vacation in Florida. I also put on some pictures of the newest addition to our family, Scooter. As many of you know Thumper ran off with another dog and never found his way back home. We since have found out that a family found him and he was adopted out to another family with kids. That being said, Chad could not resist the temptation to buy a new dog for Cam. So here we are with another new dog!

Yesterday Noah turned eight months old. It is hard to believe, some days it feels like it has been forever and other days it seems like he was just born yesterday. Every one tells you that kids are so different and it is so true. Noah is so different than Cam, he is such a little cuddle bug and wants to be near us all the time. He is interested in the small things in life, he is always picking at something. He loves his sister so much and will watch her forever. We are so blessed to have happy and healthy kids. Have a great week!

Noah laughing

Cameryn and I were playing a game with Noah this morning and he was laughing so hard. By the time I got the camera the effect had worn off a little but he still managed to pull out a few good laughs!

Well we are finally home! Colorado was a great family vacation and I have TONS of pictures to share. The kids did great considering it took 14 hours to get there. They rode in their car seats for the majority of the vacation because we were in the Rhino for over 40 hours. We rode for 5 days and went everywhere. Cameryn loved it and never once complained. Noah slept the majority of the vacation because the Rhino puts him to sleep. We made it to the top of 4 different mountains and the views were breath taking. I hope you enjoy all of our footage!

Cameryn Jumping in Aspen

When we FINALLY made it to Aspen this was the first thing Cameryn saw and she just had to do it.

Cameryn continues to surprise me with how accepting she is of her brother. Everyone warned me that she would be jealous and it would be an adjustment. She LUCKILY has been the exact opposite, she is so helpful and thinks her brother is pretty darn neat. I am waiting to see if the jealousy strikes when he becomes a walking/talking little man. For now we are good and they BOTH light up my life!

AWESOME GOD

Cam had a great week of VBS, she went non stop for a week. Nothing fills my heart more than to see my little girl singing songs of praise to God. This was one of her favorite songs from the week, it was also one of my favorites from church camp when I was a kid. Hope you all in enjoy. She is the one in the middle with the yellow dress on.
