Missed Photos

Do you ever wish that you had a camera when a photo opt comes up... lately I haven't been able to use any of the cameras since the digital needs batteries, the video needs charged and I ran out of film in my 35mm. Camille was laying on her tummy on my bed and watching tv - she looked so cute and there were no cameras so I could share the moment. Well I am going to get everything work before Saturday since it is baby dedication. Since I work at the church I get to see the backside of events and details going into different events - and since one of my dearest friends works in children's ministries I see what goes on... she has to give Pastor Scott a list of how to pronounce the babies names... so to be funny he was mispronouncing Mariana and saying anna instead of ona. I am going to laugh if he says it wrong at dedication. I will have pictures after tomorrow... she has the cutest dress to wear (Thank you!! Meem!)

Home Again!

Cami and I are so excited today! Matt has been gone for three weeks and this evening he is coming home! Those that know me well know that I am scrambling to get everything clean since he is the clean one. I am trying to at least get our bedroom straight. And since Meem (my grandma) is here I have time to clean - well she has been doing a lot too - cleaning, ironing and watching Cami. Well off to get more stuff done!
Welcome Home!

Trying new things

Well I haven't taken any photos of the azealas - and since we had a freeze the flowers died so it will be a while until I get some good photos of that so here are some updated photos of Camille.

Easter Ears
Easter Ears falling off...
Go-go (Grandma) Feeding Camille rice cereal - it was the first time she really figured out what to do with the spoon (well as much as she could with the sucking she knows how to do).

Yummm! If you notice she is in a Bumbo seat. Ours is a loaner (Thanks Wyatt!) and we really like it...

Rollin Back

Today we learned to roll from tummy to back. I was getting ready for work and had just laid Camille on her tummy on my bed (in the middle with pillows around her). I was fixing my hair and watching Cami - then I looked in the mirror than back to Camille and she was already on her back. She only did this once today but I was so proud of her - even though she was mad cause I laid her on her tummy.

Azaleas

So I think I said something about trading our boxwood's with my friend Ginny for her azaleas... Ginny and Andrew (her husband) are awesome - They brought us the azaleas and helped Matt plant them - I will post pictures later but they look so great. One of our neighbors commented on how they compliment our house. This week we will have to get some mulch around them then I will take the pictures. Yesterday while Camille was napping and Matt was fishing, I walked around the yard and started picking up rocks (we have a ton) I went to pickup a quartz rock and couldn't pick it up so I started to dig - well this thing is so big. Okay maybe not that big but it definitely felt heavier than Camille. Well the princess is waking up - so I have to go.

New Plants?

Sorry it has been a while - life gets away from me. We are trying to keep up with the neighbors and get in the yard to give it our own look. I found a plant that said it was new that I really like. Then I found it online in other colors (we got the Chramed Wine with purple/black clovers) - http://www.provenwinners.com/plants/detail.cfm?photoID=8033. We need plants in the back yard that are okay in shady areas. I really like this website since it has pictures and that gives me lots of ideas when I look through it.

My favorite thing is going in to get Cami when she wakes up in the morning - she is sooo happy and fun and very talkative (which I say is cute now but give it sometime and I will be asking her to give mommy some morning quite time) :-)

Here is one of the latest pictures. Once I figure out how to download video I will post her rolling over and talking.

Rollin Rollin Rollin

Guess what I am going to say!!! That's right we have a little girl that rolled over. Matt got to see the first roll Sunday, March 11. I was working on the computer and missed it - but was in the same room.
Camille had a doc appt today - 13lbs 11ozs and 24 1/2 in. long which puts her in 55% in both.
On another note Matt and I have started landscaping the yard - we have lots of ideas. I want to take the boxwood bushes out and put in azaleas. I am trying to firgure out what I want to go infront of them - guess I have to wait to see what color we get too. I would love to start a compost one reason is bc we don't have a garbage disposal - it couldn't smell worse then the chicken farm up the street. We are also going to start pricing stone for around the ditch by the road and mailbox. It would be fun to make a stone paito in the backyard too (that might have to wait until next year or longer).
