~Pool Time~

My parents got Drew a pool for his birthday and with the weather being the way it has been (raining every day) we haven't had a chance to get it out.  Well we got it out today and put little Camden in it.  He was okay until big brother sprayed the water hose in his face.  Once he started feeling the water in his little seat...he was done!  It was fun while it lasted :)

4 Months Old!

Camden turned four months old yesterday and is starting to form a little personality.  He is very laid back and easy going for the most part.  Loves to smile and giggle.  Loves watching his brother play and can just and laugh at him all day.  He went to his first VBS last week.  He has had a few firsts this month including laughing and rolling over!

Happy Four Months to our sweet, happy, easy going Camden!







Drew is three!

Our sweet, sensitive, caring, energetic, fun, loving little boy turned three!  It was also the first day of VBS so we waited to give his gift from us until he got home for church.  We turned the corner to our street and it was sitting outside waiting for him.  He was so excited and couldn't wait to get out of the car to see his new gift. 

We had his birthday party and a café in a nearby town that is located at a private airport.  The airplanes land and take off right outside the café.  The kids really enjoyed watching the planes come and go.  I was so worried about how to entertain the kids during the party and they just enjoyed playing outside and watching the planes.  I did have little wooden planes for them to paint and of course yummy food!

 

 

Happy Birthday Drew! 

 

 

Last Day of Preschool

Today is Drew's last day of preschool and boy has he loved going.  He has made some sweet friends and loves every teacher there (and knows them by name too).  He has made some sweet memories this year and we are very blessed for the teachers and friends that were put in his life.

3 months

Camden is three months old today and fitting right in.  He is a very laid back baby (for now) and pretty easy going.  In the past month he took his first long trip, had his first cold (not fun), visited church many times, and got to hang out with his Gigi and Auntie while mommy goes to work.  He's sleeping at least a five hour stretch at night if not longer.  He likes to wake up at 4:30 but after eating goes back to sleep.  He's starting to smile a lot more, coo's often, and loves watching his big brother be silly.

Weekend Trip

Friday after Jason got off we headed to go ole Nacogdoches.  My sister was graduating Saturday morning from Stephen F. Austin.  This was Camden's first long trip and hotel stay.  He did fairly well on the car ride down and Drew did great as always.  I had rented Frozen for him to watch and he ended up watching it 3 times by the time we were back home.  He loved it, just like everybody else. 

We arrived around 8:00 at night and my parents were already at the hotel.  The met us in the parking lot and took the boys from us and let us get checked in and unpacked.  Drew was shocked to see his Gigi and Pop pop but oh so excited.  The boys hung out with them and Auntie and Jayce for a bit before heading to bed. 

 

The next morning everybody got to sleep in a little (must have been tired from the drive) and when we woke up, we started getting ready for SFA's graduation.  We arrived just in time for it to begin and watch Auntie (my sister) walk to her seat.  Drew did great during the ceremony and Camden slept.  After it was over we got to congratulate my sister and then head out to have lunch with everybody.

 

 After lunch we went to the campus bookstore and walk around campus.  So much has changed but I still remember a lot about it.  Oh to be in college again :)  Drew got to see the fountain in the middle of campus and of course we had to take pictures.  We then walked to other book stores to see what we just had to have! 

 

We had a great time even though it was a quick trip.  I can't wait to go back when the boys are older and take them to a football game and show them around.  I doubt they will really care but I will enjoy it.  We are oh so proud of my sister and can't wait to see what God has in store for her as a teacher.  She will be great doing what she loves! 

 

Congratulations Auntie Adalee!

Two Months

Our little Camden is TWO MONTHS OLD!  He is such a content baby for the most part just doesn't like 11pm - 1am.  That's his time to let it all out!  His big brother loves to love on him oh so much.  I think Camden gets a million hugs and kisses a day from Drew.  Camden accepts them usually with a look like "when is this going to stop". 

Two Month Check Up

Height 23 in. 46%

Weight 13.2 lbs 69%

Head Circ. 15.8 75%

 

 

 

The doctor said everything looked good and that Camden was mini me of Jason.  The nurse said that him and Drew look so much alike.  We all agree to both!  The check up went well and Camden was calm during it all and let the nurse check everything on him that she routinely does and he let her without hesitation until the shots.  Camden didn't like the shots but soon calmed down and fell asleep by the time we got to the car.  Don't tell his brother but I think he's going to be a little tougher when it comes to getting shots.

Some more firsts - First Easter, First time to church, First outing with just mom and the boys. First time in an elevator,  First smile, and First time doing tummy time on his fun mat.
