Not that its a BRAND new thing - she has been getting around by rolling and such for a few weeks - but she hasn't started full on crawling yet. She can crawl for a second or two and then she is back to the belly! Or she tries to get on her feet!? Doc said she's got some red ear drums and has her on amoxicillin, but she has been very happy and cheerful against the odds! Kaleb was sick as well, but his cold is starting to go away (other than the never ending faucet he calls his nose!) but that too is getting a little better! Other than that, all is well! xo

Sorry if its a little shaky, its a little digital camera I'm recording on and its not always the best footage!! hehe...we do what we have to!

If Only, If Only...

If only there were two of me...

Kaleb has recently discovered he can open the front door, he's been opening doors forever but he never seemed to care much for the front door until now. Cameron found out that she loves to hide under things like the coffee table?! So what happens when mom goes to the bathroom, grabs a drink out of the fridge, steps away to grab something, etc...THEY GO MISSING!!! My children are out to make me go gray before my time!! And this is supposed to be the easy time - I thought gray hair came in their teens!! hehe...Oh well, I will have to sleep with one eye open (little boogers what even know I was looking!) hehe...I love my crazy little babies!!

Puffs and Play Time!

Cameron is getting so big so fast! I can hardly believe it! recently I left the kids home with Joe while I went to work and he took some pretty cute pictures! First we have Cameron in her highchair for the first time! She is munching down on some fruit puffs!! She really loves them!
She also loves her play time! The floor is her playground! She is getting soooo close to crawling, she can get up on all fours! Now she just needs to learn how to move her arms and legs!! hehe...But she is giving it great effort and will have it down soon! xoxo

I Can Dress Myself!

Kaleb is at the point in his life where he is capable of doing EVERYTHING by himself! Usually it is a good thing, he can pick up his own toys, clean his room, get his own thing out of the fridge, put on his own shoes, etc...But occassionally is it a GREAT thing - he can dress himself! Nothing is more precious than seeing him walk in the room fresh, pressed and ready to go in the silliest outfits ever! Here are just a few:

That Darn Cat...

Poor Joe was given the task of keeping the cat occupied while I put Cameron in her bed so that the cat didn't get in the room with her. Sure enough, as soon as I walked into the room the cat bolts towards me - Joe reached out to try to stop her and got scratched. Turned out to be more of a single puncture..hitting the vein and slowly filling a pocket of blood underneath the surface of his skin! CRAZY!! But the cat did not get in the room with Cameron! Instead she got the outside treatment - and it was COLD!! Joe still is planning the many ways to make that kitty "dissappear!" But you didnt hear that from me!! hehe...

Superbowl XLIII

Whoo hoo its that time again! Cardinals and Steelers...what a shame those dang Steelers won, but it was a good game!

We had a full house this year: Grandpa Smith, Aunt Lori, Riley, Uncle Russ, Mom, Dad, Katie, Conner, Me, Joe, Kaleb, and Cameron!

We took lots of pictures, ate lots of good food, goofed off, and enjoyed good company. It has been a while since we have all gotten together to do anything! I really enjoyed it! We were all split in who we wanted to win!

Well sort of...Katie, Connor, my mother, and yes I hate to admit this but my own husband (the traitor) was going for the Steelers.

The rest of us were for the Cardinals. I just wish I could be the one bragging right now! Nothing is worse that your most despised team winning! I have to admit I hold a grudge from the Steelers-Seahawks game (as I am an avid Seahawks fan!). But its ok!? Here are some pics...

We really did have a great time! Between the AWESOME food, good company, loud screaming and shouting, it was a really fun experience (as it usually is)...

Uncle Russ pretty much took over Cameron holding and loving on her the entire time!

Riley kept Kaleb pretty much preoccupied the whole time playing with a batman mask and guns!

Me, Connor, and Katie took lots of pictures and goofed off!

Joe watched the game ignoring me as I continuously snapped 100's of photos throughout the game!

I was actually kind of sad to see it end as we all prepared to go our separate ways :( Hopefully we will have many more events in the future to spend the quality time together!

Love you all!

Splish Splash...

"splish splash were taking a bath!!"

Kaleb and I had a great time taking pictures of his awesome hair in the bathtub and I thought we should share to coolness!! Enjoy!
