My Favorite Jammies!

These are my favorite pajamas of Camryn's. Just wanted to share how cute she is in them!

Twilight

So... I'm a bandwagon jumper. I'll admit it! But I'm only admitting it because now I want everyone else to jump on the bandwagon with me! I had recently been told by several people (Cammie and Brittney in particular) that I needed to read a series of books written by Stephanie Meyer. Twilight, New Moon, and Eclipse.

"What are they about?" I asked.

"Well... They are about a vampire love story" Cammie replied.

What? Are you serious? A Vampire love story? How lame can that be! (This is what I thought in my head.) But Cammie went on to tell me how much she loved the books, and she couldn't put them down, and well, I just had to read them!!! She was dying to talk about them, and I'm sorry to say this Cammie, but you just aren't like that about books. So, I have to say, I was definitely intrigued. After she first told me about them I said that I would read them... then a few weeks went by and Cammie asked if I had read them yet. Nope. Then a few more weeks went by... same thing. But last week (after Cammie asked me several times if I had read them yet!) I decided that I would get the first book and give it a try. So, I started the first book Monday morning. Then before I knew it, the morning was gone! then, Monday was gone, and I didn't want to go to bed! I finished Twilight Tuesday and I had to go to the book store to get the next two books that night! It was the same thing for New Moon and Eclipse. I just couldn't stop reading! I didn't want it to end! I finished the last book on Saturday and it left me hungry for more!!! I am so sad that I have to wait till next fall for the next book! What am I going to do?!?! Cammie what have you done to me! I feel like Cammie has turned me into a vampire that has a terrible thirst for these books! It is all I can think about! I don't want to be like all the obsessed teens out there... but I can't help but want to wear a shirt that says "Team Edward" or "Bite Me" on it... (I don't know how Paul would feel about that.) So, before I keep babbling about the books, I just wanted to let everyone know that I am in love with these books!!! (and Edward for that matter!)

So if anyone wants to talk about these books, let me know! I'm more than happy to!

Also, here is Stephenie Meyer's website where you can get lots of information as well as lots of fun extras if you have already read the book!

Mom and Dad

I was just thinking how it is pretty incredible that Paul and I are parents! The reality of it is kinda scary and so amazing all at once. We love our little girl and wouldn't trade her for anything! I am so glad that Paul and I were blessed to be parents to such a wonderful and happy little girl!

Buddies

Max and Camryn are becoming good buddies! Where ever Camryn is Max is probably laying somewhere close by. Since we had the grandparents visiting Paul and I slept on our air mattress, and Max and Camryn thought that it was a nice place to hang out.

I thought that I would try to take a picture of Max with Camryn laying on him. Well, Max wasn't to sure about this... I think he was worried about being to close to Camryn, as we have gotten after him for that before. Well, then Camryn got a hold of his tail, and started batting at Max's ear. After that, Max had had enough of that! So he got up and Camryn was left on the bed by herself.

Late that night, Max had gotten a hold of a water bottle and started to bite it and play with it. Well, Camryn thought that was pretty hilarious and laughed about it for about 10 minutes! What a funny dog!

Grandpartent Visit!

We had the privilege of having Grandma and Grandpa Romeril come for a visit this past weekend! It was so good to see them and to relax and have a good time. I think that Camryn really enjoyed spending time with them too! She sure smiled a LOT this weekend at them. Over the weekend Grandpa got to help Paul with our basement. They put up a lot of sheet rock and had a good time while doing it I think! While they did that, Grandma, Camryn and I got to go shopping! On Sunday night the power went out for a long time. So, what did we do? We played games by lamp light! I thought that it was really fun! Also this weekend, Camryn got to try solid food for the first time! She did really well eating her rice cereal I thought!

Her first bite she just let the cereal sit there in her mouth like she didn't know what the heck to do with it! Her face expression just looked confused too. She was pretty funny!

Camryn sure loved to be held by her Grandma! I have to admit, I was a little concerned that Camryn wouldn't fall asleep for me since her Grandma was so good at cuddling her! We love you Grandma!

As you can tell from the picture, Camryn sure likes her Grandpa! I think Camryn smiled instantly whenever Grandpa was around! That Grandpa sure is fun! We love you too Grandpa!

We loved having Grandma and Grandpa visit and we can't wait to see them again at Christmas! We sure do love them!

4 Months Old

I can't believe that Camryn is 4 months already!!! I'm sure that I am going to be saying that I can't believe it for the rest of her life too. So we went to the doctor today and Camryn is doing wonderfully! She weighed in at 13 lbs 4.5 oz and is 24 in long. So she is just about in the 50th percentile for height and weight. Of course the worst part of her visit was getting shots. I have to say, I think she did rather well considering, but it is never fun to watch. Camryn is getting so big it seems, but as she is growing it is fun to see her developing too! She is getting so good at playing with her toys and she grabs everything! Also she is chewing on everything too! This weekend we are going to try giving her rice cereal for the first time! I am so excited and happy to see Camryn growing and happy!


Camryn loves hitting her toys. It is pretty funny to watch. Her arms almost seem like they have minds of their own!

Getting COLD

Well, the cold has finally come. I think last night we had our first hard freeze! I don't mind the cold I guess, but I sure was enjoying the crisp fall weather! The weather where all you need is a sweater or a light jacket. I like that. But it can't stay that way forever I guess. So we got Camryn one of those little bundle bags for her car seat so she can stay cozy in the cold! I think that she likes it!

She sure seems cozy anyway!
