We went in a cave, it was a lot of fun

Cami and her Cousins

We had a lot of fun camping in Lava this year we took a little tour of Soda Spring too, There were so many awesome things to see. And a lot of beautiful sights to see.

So much to catch up on

2010-10-08T11:12:00.000-07:00

I have not posted for a while, sorry! I have had morning sickness and it lasts all day. I have a lot of things to catch up on. Before the tree and the bushes were gone
After they were removed
The tree being cut down

This tree was such a headache to get removed, the first people that came had to hand the job over to another company because it was just to big for their equipment. The second people made it look like such a simple task, they were so fast and it was way cool to watch the process. We are so glad it's almost down, that's right almost, because of the cost Darin has been cutting some of it down and we will have the tree people come back in spring to finish. What a project, ha ha, I will be so happy when it is down and we can start making our back yard into what we have in our minds.

Baby #2 on the way

2010-09-02T18:16:00.000-07:00

On Aug. 11th we celebrated 3 years and also found out that baby #2 is on it's way, we are so so soooooooo excited. I have been sick but I keep telling my self it's worth all the yucky feeling. The baby is due on April 23rd 2011. Yippy!!!!

We had our Dillingham reunion this last weekend and we had a good time at Jolly Ranch camp ground in Springville. It was great to see every one!!

For all those wondering why the tree is coming down

2010-08-23T14:26:00.000-07:00

We have decided to cut down our tree in the back yard, it is about 80 ft. tall and takes fourteen adults standing straight to circle the trunk. We have had a lot of people say, Why are you cutting it down? and you will regret it. This will help you understand, last night there was a wind storm and two branches about 25 ft. tall broke off of our tree and landed in our neighbors yard, a tree similar to ours had a branch fall and took out our other neighbors phone line. If those branches from our tree had fallen on the neighbors house it could have caused some serious damage and a pretty penny out of our pockets!!! However we have loved the shade the tree has provided and plan to plant a shade tree in its place about a third of its size.

My front yard this morning.

2010-06-10T08:47:00.000-07:00

So, we were noticing a little patch of water in the road infront of our hose about a week ago and then a stream of water going from our house dont the gutter. We called the city to come check the leak infront of our house, and yesterday when we came home we noticed the street and our grass was marked off with paint. This morning I woke up to a drilling sound at 7:00 am They are fixing the broken water pipe and making lots of holes in my yard boo hoo!

Just some random moments

2010-06-04T09:44:00.001-07:00

Cami loves helping her daddy, she wants to do every thing with him the last little while it's so cute.

The kids all played in the sand while we were at the park with the family on Monday for memorial day. I'm sure they all went home with some sandy britches.

I take my nephew a couple of times a week and Cami and him love to play and fight, this is the sweet moments when they play. They are so cute.

Grandpa look- a- like

Random moments and pictures

2010-05-21T18:56:00.000-07:00

Cami Loves shoes and she found these soccer shoes in Daddy's closet, she was so pleased with her self as she was trying them on and it was so stinkin cute, the sad face is the face she makes when she is embarrassed.

Cami and Mommy had fun painting our toes, Cami calls finger nail polish pretties.

My mothers day was wonderful, Saturday night Darin took me out for dinner and later after we got home, he had Cami bring me a yellow rose and give me a kiss, It was way cute. In the morning Darin woke up and made me breakfast and had a home made card, a dozen yellow roses and lotion and body spray waiting for me on the table, What a GREAT hubby. I love that man!!!!
Later we got to visit with our moms and families and talk to Darins bro Mckay who is on his mission. It was a wonderful day.

Fun at the zoo

2010-05-04T09:21:00.000-07:00

Our friends Melissa and Craig came with us to a fun little zoo in Logan and had a picnic. It was so much fun, every time I would take a picture of the animals Cami would say "mio" Smile. It was so cute. And whenever we saw a bird Cami would say "fishy" and then make a kissy fish sound, she is a little confused ha ha! We had a blast.

My PCOS (Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome) Diet

2010-04-27T13:02:00.000-07:00

So, I found out some time ago that I have a disease called PCOS. But not until now did I realize all that it can cause and prevent. People that have this disease tend to have problems with their weight and with getting pregnant. They also have a higher chance for heart disease and diabetes, it's a little scary to think about. But since I know I have an issue as of now with getting pregnant I have been trying for some time now for baby #2 and had a miscarriage in January, I have been researching things that can help prevent these thing from happening to me and I have come up with a solution. I have found a diet (or more a way of life) and I know it's going to help in so many ways.

So here it is..........

MY PCOS DIET (LIVE IT) PLAN

* Multiply your weight by a number ( 10-20) depending on how overweight and active you are ( high number for some one less over weight and lower number for some one more over weight) for example : 5-10 lbs over weight multiply your weight by 20 , then subtract 500 if you want to lose 1 lb. a week and 1000 if you want to lose 2lbs a week. That will be your calorie intake for a day.

* Do not eat carbohydrates by themselves. Instead, combine them with a protein and/or fat.

* Take a multivitamin with minerals ( 400 mcg of folic acid if trying to get pregnant )

* Also take 1000-1500 mg of calcium ( take 2-3 500 mg pills a day)

* Try to add your protein to 100 g a day.

* Exercise 3-5 times a week for 30-45 min

* Since PCOS has to do a lot with insulin, one thing to do is to make sure that you eat food higher in fiber and lower in sugar for a slower release of the insulin.

Our little cutie!!

My GREAT deal!!

2010-04-14T12:00:00.000-07:00

That's right go ahead and count them all TEN boxes of cereal for just a little over $4.00. So this is how, get your adds from Harmons, Fresh Market and other associated foods and in them there is a manufactures coupon for three dollars off of 5 boxes of Quaker oatmeal and captain crunch and life cereal. Well right now at smiths they are having a deal 5 for 5 so when you use this coupon you can get three dollars off so it comes out to be $2.00 for 5 boxes. woo hoo!! that's a good deal.

Update

2010-04-13T16:12:00.000-07:00

Well, we moved into our new home and absolutely are loving it. Cami has her own room and a play room all to her self. She loves being able to have free run of the house. We are loving having a front room for visiting and another room for the TV and entertainment. We have already done some yard work and I'm very much enjoying it, getting a tan while making my home look good. I'll get some pictures of it decorated, it's not all in place but it's looking and feeling more like home each day.

2010-03-14T14:25:00.000-07:00

Cami's favorite things to do are Make lots and lots of messes, and have Mommy and Daddy clean them up. We are teaching her how to clean up after her self and she likes it some times and does not other times. She keeps me active for sure, run here, run there, run every where. Ha ha! we love it.

Funny Cami Stroy

2010-02-18T11:35:00.000-08:00

So I was giving Cami her bath this morning and she was loving life, she then decided to get Daddy's conditioner and squeeze it into the tub, it kind of looked like worms and she started crying and yelling spier (spider) and was holding on to me for dear life wanting me to get her out of the bath. Once I got her out she would not stop crying and would not let me go. Ha ha ha!!!

Growing like a flower

2010-02-16T12:22:00.000-08:00

So our little Cami is growing like a flower ( we will say flower instead of weed, it sounds better). She has been learning a lot, some good , some bad and some inspired by older cousins. lol
*She has been learning these little phrases " That's mine." and " Go away!"
* She has also learned the value of a puppy dog face and what advantages it can have.
* Cami is really a climber, she has recently lost interest in the play pin and had has learned how to climb over the side and jump out, The other day she tried this with her crib and realized it's a long way to the ground.
*Cami has so much energy, I wonder where she finds it some times, she will run and run and sing and spin and jump and Oh, the list goes on and she still is a bundle of energy.
*When Darin comes home from work she runs to the door and throws her arms around him with a big kiss, she adores her daddy.
* She has discovered there is a hole in her tummy and every one Else has one too and she likes to fine them, it's a little embarrassing at times.
* She is very loving and kind, she loves babies and will try to help them when they are sad by kissing them and rubbing their head, she also thinks all babies should walk and stand so she will try to pull them up off the ground, she does not understand why they will not do what she thinks they should.
Cami is so much fun, she keep us going and keeps life interesting for Mom and Dad as well as Grandma and Grandpa Dillingham who get to see it all first hand. I have learned parenting takes lots of prayers and patients, and what a blessing it is to be a parent and get to teach that little girl all we know and hope we did a good job. We love our little Cami .

2010-02-03T13:19:00.000-08:00

Cami Lew love her Bell dress up shoes, She will wear them all around the house and by the way she acts in them I can tell she feels cute, she is so funny.

Cami loves her sippy and her blanky, she drags her blanky all around where ever she goes.

We have discovered that Cami gets a little board when she lays down for a nap, we can find her surrounded by clothes , diapers est. I guess she has to ease into nap time.

A new year and a new start

2010-01-14T13:47:00.000-08:00

My sisters, Mom and I have decided to start a new way of eating ( I can't call it a diet, because diets don't work for me) We are eating 4 meal a day at 400 cal. a meal. It's said that you can lose up to 11 lbs. in two weeks time, One of my sisters has already lost 7 lbs. and we just started it on Monday. I hope to see some good results form this. You would never believe it but it's hard to find 400 cal. to eat each meal.

Weight loss

2010-01-11T17:06:00.000-08:00

So, I have been trying some new things to lose weight and I have found some thing that helps. I decided last week to start eating sweets only at the end of lunch or dinner, because I have heard that it digests better and does not turn into fat as easy, so I tried it and I have lost 4 lbs. Just thought I'd share that and see if it can help others.

Christmas

2009-12-30T13:36:00.000-08:00

Cami took this picture all by her self

Cami wanted Grandma to help her open evry one of her gifts.

We had a great Christmas, we woke up and ate Quech for breakfast that Darin had made, it was yummy. After breakfast we read a christmas story and opened gifts, It was great Cami was so excited about all of her gifts, when she got clothes she would hold them up to herself and show them off to us all. Then we went over to Darins parents and opened gifts there and talked to his brother Mckay that is on a mission, he was fun to hear from it sounds like he is doing very well. We tried so hard to get Cami to say, "Hi Mckay." But she would not so we will work on that for when he gets home in July. When we got home from The perentals, we came here to my parents and had the whole Young side of the family here for a party. We had a great time with every one and we hope evry one els had a great Christmas also.

Cami Update

2009-12-28T18:17:00.000-08:00

Our little Cam is growing so so fast. She is so smart some times we forget that she is only 18 months. She has started to climb every thing, stools, her high chair ,up on the bed and just about every thing Else. When she knows she is doing some thing wrong she shakes her pointer finger and says, "No no no." She is starting to say lots of new things like, "baby pip" for baby bop and "Bary" for Barney, She is really liking the big purple Dino. She loves to figure things out and has the most determination I have ever seen in a toddler, she is a lot like her daddy in that way, when she starts something she will not give up until she has gotten it right. We are loving all of her new little moments.

Cami's poor little fingers!! We went to kid to kid on Saturday to get some clothes for Cami, as we were there, Cami was playing with some toys she pulled a large wood piece of a toddler bed over on her fingers. Her fingers were blue and started to swell up, they are looking a lot better today, but I can tell they are still hurting her. Poor thing!!

We had a family Christmas party on Saturday night and Santa came to give us all gifts, Camille was terrified of him she was screaming.

This is our Christmas tree. We had it all decorated and it fell over, I was sooo mad I had just finished it after about four hours of working on it. But it's all beck up and decorated now and it smells so yummy just like your in the forest.

Update!

2009-12-04T13:01:00.000-08:00

Well, we have been living at my parents for a little over a month now and have been so blessed to have so much help in a time of need. Darin got a new job three days ago and It could not have come at a better time, The lord has his own time for sure, but he always has the perfect timing in the end. We are so excited for the new career that has come about and are looking forward to what it will bring.
Cami sure is growing up, last Christmas seems such a short time ago and I remember all the new things Cami was doing then and here it is so close once more and she has learned so much. Cami is in love with dogs especially my parents dogs, She wants to be like them and will copy things they do like eating off the floor and panting it's kinda funny. She just can not get enough of them, she will lay on them try to ride them and she even gives them kisses on the fur, it's a sad thing really because thy hate being tackled by her but she loves them so much. It reminds me of the little girl on tiny toons that is always squeezing the animals. Ha Ha!!! She also has the energy of about three kids in one and I am trying to find about half her energy just to keep up with her. She is a handful but she is so much fun and we are happy she is energetic and happy.

So tonight we went with my dad to a stake activity, we signed up to bring chili for a cook off , I was running around watching kids all day and going crazy so I didn't have a lot of time to get my chili made. I had about fourty five min to get it done whikle my dad had been slaving over his for a day and a half. Well, we took our chile to be judged and when they brought out the 1st, 2nd and 3rd place chili by some crazy luck or some thing, mine was #1 my dad was #3 we got a good laugh out of it. Ha Ha Ha!!!! My dad should have got the grand prize.

Cami's 1st hair cut :(

2009-10-22T17:43:00.000-07:00

Well we were thinking that if we gave Cam a little trim her hair would grow faster. Cam was having a hard time holing still for me so, we decided to try the trimmers. Long story short,Cami's hair ended up way shorter then we wanted it to be. I was sooooooo sad, I cried a little all her cute little curls GONE!

Poor Cami

2009-10-08T11:25:00.000-07:00

Cami was soooo sooo sick last week, it started with the flu just feeling sick and not wanting to do much but lay around the hose. About a week after all of that she broke out in a awful rash from head to toe and she could not get comfortable all day and especially at night. One of the nights we took turns trying to calm her and each of us got about two hours of sleep. I hate when she is so sick like that, it's no fun for any of us. I'm so glad that is over.

All Better Now!!!!

Silly Cami and the BIG pig!!

2009-10-08T11:17:00.000-07:00

Cami has decided that flip flops are to wear on you arms not you feet and that the more string cheese the better. Ha ha!!! Silly girl.

We saw this BIG FAT UGLY pig at the state fair. I don't think I have ever found a pig this BIG FAT AND UGLY!!!

Young Family reunion.

2009-10-08T10:57:00.000-07:00

Ok so here are my updates with some pictures. Finally!!

What a bunch of messy kids.

Stylish Cami!

The kids all loved the front porch swing.

Here it is the Kodak moment!! Mom looks a little concerned. Ha ha!

For the Young family reunion we went and stayed at The Kitchens (Chris and Dave's family) cabin in Burville Utah( in other words south in the middle of no where.) We had a blast riding on three and four wheelers and just hanging out as a fam. My mom actually got on a four wheeler and that's a Kodak moment in the making. It was a lot of fun.

Update!

2009-10-06T11:10:00.000-07:00

I have lots of new pictures I need to post, see our computer decided to kick the bucket, so I had to wait until we got a new one up and running. A lot has happened and I need to post and I will soon.

Hey Everyone!!!

2009-09-14T12:29:00.000-07:00

Hey Everyone!!! Darin has just started a new job with Living Scriptures and is trying to get his business going. For those of you who do not know about Living Scriptures they have awesome animated and none animated DVDs about the scriptures, the great American heroes, the prophets and church history. We have been watching them and they have been great, even Camille is enjoying them very much, They are wonderful for kids to learn more about the Scriptures and the American heroes like Hellan Keller, George Washington and many more. We used them at the special ed. School I use to work at and they are a wonderful teaching tool. The Prophet ones and the Church history have been great for Darin and I too, we have learned so so much. If you might be interested and would like him to come sit down with you and show you what they have or if you may know any one that may be interested please let me know. Thanks so much and have a great day!!

Poor girl, Park City and Campout night

2009-08-18T09:25:00.000-07:00

Last night we went up to a camp site in Morgan with some of my family and had some hobo dinners and smores. It was a lot of fun. It's a very beautiful place and there is a lot to do.

Well, for our anniversary we went to Park City and stayed in this great place called Newpark hotel and resort, we knew it would be nice but when we got there it was even bigger and nicer then we thought it would be and it was afordable too. We also went to this really fun place to eat called The last sameri, it's kind of like Tapanyakki. We sat with these really fun people and had a blast. We also got to do some shopping at the malls and just relax, it was a lot of fun.

Well, right before we went to Park City. Cami got a rash all over her body little pin size red dots every where. I took her to the doc. and I guess its a virul rash, he said it's actually a good sign that she is getting better. I have never heard of that before. Hummm?

Two Great years!!!

2009-08-11T08:23:00.000-07:00

Happy two years to my honey bun!! It has been two wonderful years!

~ More fun in Snowbird ~

Moms luau, Cami and Snowbird

2009-08-04T18:21:00.000-07:00

Mom had the surprise of her life when her hula students parents organized a surprise Luau with all the old and new students. Dad did a good job at not spilling the beans and mom was full of happy tears. It was fun to get every one together after so long and see every one dance. Mom could not stop crying. It makes me proud my mom does such an awesome thing by bringing so many people their culture who may not have that part of it other wise. What a wonderful woman and mother.

Dad being a goof with moms flowers Ha ha, What a great guy.

The group that started it all (plus Amanda Who danced with us that night)

Mom and Barbara, Barbara taught us dancers some amazing Samoan dances.

Cami is so funny she loves books, she will get the books out of our library bag and bring them to me so I can look at them with her. She also loves to eat her hair bows, she thinks they belong in her mouth and not on her head.

We went to Snowbird for a couple of nights with Darins Family and had a fun time just relaxing, I didn't get very many pictures but I did get some of Cami in the pool. Cami was scared of the water at first, but then she started to love it. We may go back on Friday so if we do I'll take more pics.

Pooped out after swimming.

Just an update.

2009-07-28T14:17:00.000-07:00

So, We stood Cami on the scale and she weighs 20 lbs. I thought she woud weigh more because she eats like a horse. Ha ha ha!! She is so much fun. Her new thing is, When she get mad at people she bites them and If she can't bite them she bites her self. We are trying to stop that one so it won't get bad. She also hits, not fun. It's hard to make a one year old understand that thta's wrong.

Worth Blogging about.

2009-07-18T13:55:00.000-07:00

So, Some of you know that about four weeks after having Cami I had to get my Gal bladder taken out. I know you may be wondering why I have chosen to talk about this, but there is a great reason. For the last year since I have to get the dumb thing out, I have had heart burn, stomach pain, weight gain and just a heck of a time eating any thing that is not completely bland. Well, about a month ago I found a solution to many of those not so fun things, The answer....... TA DA! Black Radish Complex, Who would have thought, I feel worlds better. I just take one to two every time I eat depending on how fatty or spicy of sweet the food is and Wallah! like magic no yucky pain and heartburn, not to mention in four weeks I have lost 12 yup, 12 pounds. I would very much recommend this to every one that is left with out your gal bladder. Ha ha! It is my life saver, Just had to shear!

What we have been doing.

2009-07-17T10:06:00.000-07:00

Well, It's been a while since I last posted a blog. I have been a little busy trying to make bows and flowers for my boutique. But any way it has been fun, we have been trying to teach Cami signing it's been a lot of fun, she have learned to sign shoes, socks, hat, please, more and bear. I hear that if you teach your baby to sign can help them learn easier in school and also help the terrible twos stage. We are having lots of fun with it.

We won a prize at the fair for $10.00 of fun at fat cats, so we decided to go glow in the dark golfing. It was rather lame ha ha ha! but Cami liked seeing every thing glow and we had a good time any way.

Cami found a fun new messy snack, She made such a mess eating Red Vines at Grandma and Grandpa Js on Sunday, We had to take a picture. She enjoyed it way to much ha ha ha!

One day full of fun

2009-07-10T08:33:00.000-07:00

Yesterday, all of Darin's sister his mom and his grandmas and I went out for his moms birthday. We all went to West Jordan to the gardener village and ate and then went around to the shops, it was a lot of fun, we saw a lot of really cool crafts and stuff, I want to figure out how to copy them and make them my self. After Gardener village we went through the Oquirrh mountain temple, it was so beautiful and the view is amazing. after the temple we checked out the Day Break area, there are some fun houses in that area. What a fun day!

Yummy!

This pita was so big and messy, but it tasted great.

These are a few things I liked at the shop that I want to try to make.

Darin's Great Grandma ( butterfly Grandma) Found her favorite things too.

Cami looks so cute and I love this bench, I think I need one.

Spencer and Baily got to ride the horses at the petting zoo.

The temple is so amazing.

This was one of the houses I really liked in day Break.

Our little cupie look-a-like.

Our wonderful 4th of JULY!

2009-07-05T21:24:00.000-07:00

Fourth of July was very full of fun and we did a lot of going here there and every where. We started by waking up early and going to a stake breakfast at our church. Camille was a little piggy, she ate two normal size pancakes. I don't understand her little large appetite, she could eat all day long and she stays small ( hummm? wonder who she gets that from? Could it be her dad?)

After breakfast we went to the Kaysville parade, it was a lot of fun Camille clapped and cheered for the floats and cars that went by and waved. We didn't stay for the water fight, because we had to rust to my families pic nic up Provo canyon.

I love the canyon it's so relaxing and beautiful up there. at our pic nic we had a few little visitors little reptiles and rodents, we had a little snake slither across our blanket and little hamster looking creatures popping in and out of holes, but I have to say they don't bother me as much when I am in their home as when they are in mine.

Some pictures of Camille and us having fun

All tuckerd out, What a long Day!

The Stadium Of fire was really cool, we got to take a peak at the Jonas brothers and hear them a little as we sat out on the grass waiting for the fire works to start. There were a lot of crazy teen age girl fans everywhere. I have to say one of the very coolest parts of it all was the retiring of a 90 by something flag it was fun being able to peak in at the screen and see that, and a very awesome feeling. What a day full of fun. The drive home was long and getting out of the parking spot but well worth it being able to celebrate our freedom. I'm so glad I am an American and thankful for my freedom ant the men and women that fight to keep us free.

Good snacks that are healthy

2009-06-30T17:52:00.000-07:00

So, I am doing this diet sort of thing I guess you could say and I have found some good things to eat that you don't have to waste the whole day worth of eating on. For lunch or dinner you can try mixing broccoli slaw with chicken salad and cheese cubes in a pita it's very good. Also for a treat when you are craving some thing sweet try 1 chocolate rice cake with either cool whip and strawberries on top or 1 tsp. pb and half a sliced banana on top. yummy! Darin thinks I am crazy when I eat rice cakes, he says they taste like card board, but I like them. Ha ha ha!

Fun Summer stuff

2009-06-28T20:27:00.000-07:00

Josh Gracin's BIGGEST fan!! Ha ha ha!

Yestaerday we went to see Josh Gracin in concert and watch fire works, It was a lot of fun Camille loved it she was dancing to the music and clapping and saying yaeh to every fire work. It was way cute.

Early today Camille descovered watermelon and was having the grandest time stuffing her face with it. It was all over the place.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DARIN!!!!

Also Today was a great day we celebrated Darins 24th Birthday and had his parents and 2 of his sisters over for cake and ice cream.

My Family from WiddlyTinks.com

What we have been doing.

2009-06-19T18:58:00.000-07:00

Well, we have been having lots of fun the last two weeks. We have been watching Camille develop a new little personality. She loves music, when there is music playing or when she is playing with musical toys, she sings mumble style. She has also picked up on how to read also in mumble style, she will pick up the books and flip the pages and BLAH BLAH BLAH. Also along with the cute comes the not so cute, she has discovered how to throw a huge full on drop to the ground, dead weight, kicking and screaming fit. We love it all, She teaches us a lot. We sure love our little ray of sun shine.

Camilles 1st Birthday!!

2009-06-09T15:12:00.000-07:00

More fun! Camille was not sure what to think of her cake at first. When we put it on her tray she started to cry. After a while she started to play with it and eat it a little more, I think at first she may have felt intimidated by all the other kids huddled around her and the noise. She ended up getting messy, although I think my dad and Darin helped her with that a little. Ha ha!

She Also enjoyed her gifts, She got lots of fun toys and some cute clothes and books. The toys she is still trying to figure out, she is not sure how thy all work.

Camilles 1st Birthday!!

2009-06-09T14:20:00.000-07:00

Darin and I made a pinata for camilles first birthday It was a lot of fun but we didn't let it dry long enough and it was very brittle. But hey the kids loved it any way, it's all about the candy right? Ha ha.

We also made her a fun Daisy cake. We will show you a picture of what it looked like before she destroyed it. :)

Graduation!

2009-06-09T14:15:00.000-07:00

Yea! Darin and I had our own sort of Graduation, we took a community finance class and finished the course and got our certificate. It was an amazing class and taught us sooo much, I kind of wish there was more.

Funny Story of the day

2009-06-04T19:51:00.000-07:00

So, today after Darin got off work and they got to the park 'n ride where all their cars were, Darin realized that his keys were locked in his truck. So, he gave me a call and had me bring some hangers and stuff to try to break into it. Well, we were trying to break in for about an hour when a cop came by and said we were reported breaking in to a truck. The cop said the person who called said, " there is a man breaking into a truck at the park 'n ride and he has his wife and a baby with him." Ha ha ha! Like some one would bring the family along to break into a car. The cop thought it was pretty funny. Well, the cop ended up using a jimmy and helping us get into the truck. Ha ha ha!!

Walking

2009-06-03T17:32:00.000-07:00

On Monday June 1st, Camille decided she wanted to walk, It's more like a drunken toddle. But the all the same , she is a walker. She wants to run and her walk is very fast, she has not got how to make it normal pace and balanced, but we are working on that.

What's this stuff?

2009-06-01T12:08:00.000-07:00

Hey mom what is this?Looks like it could be fun to play with. Humm? Is this ok Dad?

Oh no, I'm in trouble!

So, the same day Cams got into the chips she also decited she needed to figure out how Mom's make up works. I could tell Camille was getting into something so I went down the hall to find, she had found my make up case and was pulling all the make up out and trying to eat it and play with it. We are in for it!

Little Mischievous missy!

2009-06-01T11:38:00.000-07:00

Camille is becoming a little more mischievous every day. The other day she took advantage of Mom and Dad leving the room and decited to help her self to the bag of chips, that were left there. This is what we found when we came back into the room. Ha ha ha!! So funny!

Summer fun

Relaxing with daddy

2009-05-29T21:11:00.000-07:00

After our camping trip and family picnic over the holiday weekend, we were very pooped so we all came home and bummed around it was great. Darin and Cams fell asleep snuggled up on the couch so I had to take a cute picture of it.

Josh and Tacy

2009-05-13T15:50:00.000-07:00

Josh and Tacy's wedding day!

Mothers day

2009-05-13T15:38:00.000-07:00

For mothers day Darin gave my a dozen roses with a cute card and two shirts. It was a great day, we went to church with his mom and had an early dinner over there and also got to talk to Darins younger brother McKay that is on a mission. Camille loved talking to her uncle on the phone, she even said Hi to him. Then we went over to my parents and had a bbq and a birthday/moms day party. What a day!

Our little ALMOST one year old!

2009-05-13T10:20:00.000-07:00

Well I can't believe our little baby is going to be a one year old in less then a month, it all goes by so fast. She is trying to walk and she is starting to say things that are actual words like" Mom" , "Dad" , "OK" and we swear we hear her say "thank you". It feels so strange to think back to the day she was born and now she is becoming a cute little toddler. WOW!!! I can't believe it!

Friday Fun day!

2009-05-08T17:39:00.000-07:00

So, today some of my sister's and I got together with our kids, kind of just sporadically not really planed. We had so much fun, we took the kids to the park and played for a while and then just hung out at my moms. But any way, we decided it is going to be a new summer play day for us and I'm so excited. It will be nice just to get out of the house and have the babe play with her cousins, and I can have some girl time.
