Pretend Play

Camille has started to do more pretend play lately... so today she was pretending to sell me some book. She said "You can buy this book mam." And yesterday she was saying "Hey Lady" and then she would tell me something but thought it was funny that she would say hey lady.

Micah's Room

Today Tonja came over while Camille and I were at a FRG meeting (Family Readiness Group) and painted Micah's room. It looks so adorable - we have some touch up work to do but it looks great! If Tonja is able to swing by to look at it tomorrow she will bring her camera and I will post some pictures.

Training and Pyrotechnics

I talked to Matt today - probably the last time for the next two weeks. They are headed out to the field for training. He was telling me that the place that they are training looks so much like where they will be - there are about 250 actor type people playing the town's people and then they have some Hollywood pyrotechnicians. (I know Chris you want to pack up your things and go join him.) As you can imagine Matt is ready to get home but I think he is looking forward to these next two weeks too.

Pancake Dinner

Well last night I was craving pancakes - even though a very sweet friend gave me stuffed peppers and a pot roast. We will eat on that this weekend!
Anyway - I have only ever made pancakes with Bisquick and we didn't have any in the house. So I thought 'I can make them from scratch'. Well they turned out pretty good. I replaced the sugar with Splenda Brown Sugar too.
The best thing about dinner though was what Camille said out of the blue - "That was a yummy supper Mommy, Thank You!"

This made my week!

Landing...

I just wanted everyone to know that Matt has touched down in Cali. This means only 3 weeks until Matt is back in NC! Hopefully!

Camille knew that my mom was going out there and we talked to Daddy last night and he told her that he was going out there so she wanted to go on the airplane to see them (she thinks they are together). I am trying to convince her that they aren't.

Headed to Cali

Matt will be heading to Cali tomorrow... funny thing is my mom is too. She is going to San Diego. I will let you know when he gets in and is settled. He has been through this training before so it isn't going to be anything too new for him.
I think the prayers are working for him to be home for the birth (as long as this little boy doesn't come too early). As of now the C-section is scheduled for April 17th at 9:30 am... I am already having bad dreams about that... like them having to use a drill for the spinal and forgetting to numb me before doing that or cutting me... silly dreams!
As you see at the top I thought it better to change the name of the blog but the link will stay the same.

I also want to say 'Thank you!' to all that are praying and helping us at this time! We love you all!

One more cute thing Camille said...

So we are sitting at the kitchen table making crafts with cotton balls and the glue stick... Camille was putting the back side of the glue stick in her mouth. I thought she was putting the side with the glue in her mouth and said, "Oh, don't put that in your mouth" then my mom says "Your tongue will stick to your teeth". Camille's reply "then I not talk ever again".

Telescopes and Dishalous

Things have been going well for Camille and me. We have been keeping busy with so much and I am trying to get the house in order (and the guest room/junk room into baby's room). I am really excited about some cleaning supplies that I have coming too - from Shaklee. I decided to become a Shaklee Independent Distributor (http://www.shaklee.net/kellylesher). This is the link to my page if you would like to take a look at all the products they have (vitamins, cleaning supplies, personal care, etc.).

Matt is going to Ft Irwin soon - if you would like to send him a birthday card (March 29th) you will need to send them probably around the 24th. As of right now he is suppose to be in NC in April until they leave - continue to pray that he will be able to meet this little boy!

Two Camille stories...

The other night at dinner Camille looks at me and says "Mommy that was so dishalous!" It took me a few minutes but she was telling me that what she was eating was delicious. Now normally I tell her how to say the work correctly but I think I will leave this one a lone... I like the word dishalous.

On the way to church this morning Camille was playing with a wand that she has and was holding it up to her eye saying "Mommy, I am looking at daddy with my telescope". It made me nervous that she was holding this stick up to her eye - I kept thinking if I have to hit my brakes that is going right in her eye.
