Nana is still working on the comforter but she finished the dust ruffle and we put up the bumper. Nana even bought 400 thread count sheets, because, you know, every baby needs that...

These are letters I am going to paint for the wall and bows I bought for her hair!

I guess he thought I didn't get them all.

I noticed Cameron had a booger after bathtime so I suctioned his nose. I started cleaning the bathroom and he took the suction. I went in the living room and caught him doing this.

Cameron started moms day out on Tuesday and this is right before we left. He had to take puppy for naptime. His hair was so out of control I had to wet it with a wash cloth and it still stuck up. He needs a hair cut papa!

just relaxing after a long day!

Although he wasn't too sure at first, once he discovered the race car, we never left from this spot.

He kept trying to climb up after the ball.

Cameron was not very good at skee ball, he only got two over the hump and for no points. He really enjoyed throwing the ball, though. We had to stop when he started throwing the wood ball on the floor and at other machines.

Cameron and I met some friends at Chuck E Cheese and this is the look I got when I told him to look at me and smile.

Cameron is testing out the swing Nana and Papa bought for Calleigh.

Family Update

It has been a little while due to the fact that I have time for nothing lately, although things are starting to slow down a little. I have my last final tomorrow so will be under alot less stress. I am 31 weeks now and starting to nest greatly. Chris has been really good about keeping me sane by just letting me do what I need to do. We have been working on Calleigh's room although we still have alot to do. I am getting really anxious and cannot wait to meet her. I have a vision of what she will look like but I am curious to find out. I don't think she will look anything like Cameron, I think she will have dark hair and eyes. We will see soon! Cameron loves nothing more that cars right now. He is saying so many things I cannot keep up. He tells me things that I wonder where he learned. We are trying to teach him that he is going to be two but he still cannot figure out how to hold his fingers. When he wakes up in the morning now, instead of crying, he yells mom!, until I come. When I open the door, he says "good morning." I just melts my heart. He is the sweetest boy. Even when he is in trouble, he wants to hug. Chris is really getting the hang of his job now and is doing well. He is about to have a new store opening and will be gone for about 3 weeks. It is only about 45 minutes from the house so I am sure we will be down there to see him alot. It really hit him the other day that Calleigh will be here soon and he is getting excited. We are still in Waco as we have had no hits on the house yet. Hopefully soon.

Cameron loves cheese!


After dinner Cameron was still asking for cheese. Since he ate pretty much everything on his plate, I let him have the rest of the cheese I grated. I know this is sad but I promise I have never let him do this before, and it was not much. He got every last piece possible.

Funnel Cake


Nana bought a funnel cake which Cameron loved. He mostly just sucked the sugar off but he did eat some of the cake. Nana likes to instill bad habits!

Mom and Cameron


He wouldn't smile but he at least sat with me for a picture. Please excuse the fat face I only have 9 more weeks!

Go Rangers!


Papa and Cameron at his first Rangers game! He was so good. There was a fireworks show afterward but Cameron told us "no like it." so we left.

I don't want to go!


We were about to leave and I was trying to get Cameorn dressed. He took off, ran in Calleigh's room, and sat in the glider to defy me. He is such a mess these days!

Like father like son...


Cameron is already getting basketball instruction from daddy.

This is Cameron's I-just-got-in-trouble-and-I-am-really-sorry face. So cute, how can you stay mad at that!

Mom and Calleigh


Please excuse the hair and makeup I was just about to work out. 31 weeks

Nanny and Cameron


Just hanging out with my Nanny. We watched cars and I showed off.

Baby Girl Update

I went today for my 28 week appointment today. (actually Sunday I will be 29 weeks) Everything looked good and baby girl is growing on schedule and I have not developed any of the health problems that might occur during pregnancy. We have just 11 weeks and 2 days now. WOW! Looks like we are coming into the home stretch. It is hard to believe in that short amount of time we will be a family of four. I wonder if we will ever have a date again?? JK That is what Nana and Papa are for!

I know how to use this...

Helping me work...

Cameron likes to help do anything or he likes to imitate eveything I do. I was making breakfast and he pulled all this out and told me he was making eggs. The night before, he pulled out the spatula and told me he was making burgers. Maybe we have a little chef on our hands!

Cameron and Savannah went to the airport with me to pick up Chris. We all came back in one piece after waiting in the car for 30 minutes. It was entertaining for me and a little glimpse into how it will be to have two kids! WOW! I am sure am I ready for this.

Family Update

Sorry it has been a while since I posted but I haven't had much to report. School is going to well and I have A's in both of the classes I have completed. I will have the other 2 finished by August 22ND. I am told that I will get a something special if I get a 4.0 so I am trying really hard. Cameron is being crazy, of course, and he is getting too smart for me to get anything by him. He calls wine "daddy's apple juice" and beer "daddy's water". He is also really good at telling me what he does and does not like. Although, sometimes he tells me he doesn't like something, like chicken, which he loves, so he doesn't have to eat and can go play. We are learning his tricks too though. Chris' job is going well although he is always busy. We have learned that days off are days he doesn't go to a store, not days where he doesn't work. He loves the job itself and it has presented some great challenges which he is eager to overcome. We are still in Waco since we haven't sold the house yet. Miss Calleigh is growing everyday and is now just over 27 weeks. We had the 4D sonogram done this weekend which I have posted pictures for below. She was quite active and very cooperative to get some good pictures and video. I am going try and figure out how to post the video so you can all see. She was talking and sticking out her tongue towards the end. I think she was tired of being bothered. Cameron waived at the tv we were watching her on saying Hi Calleigh! It was really cute. For the majority of the time, however, he and Savannah were chasing each other around the room. My doctor's appointments have been going well also. Her heartbeat is staying around 154 bpm and she is developing as scheduled. I will keep you all updated and we will look forward to October 19th ish.

BUSY,BUSY, BUSY

I haven't posted in a while because I haven't had much time. Cameron, of course, keeps me on my toes these days. We are also in the process of trying to sell the house so I have to keep it clean at all times, not easy with a toddler. I am also trying to finish my last two classes for this semester. For those of you who don't know, I am taking classes through Texas Tech to finish my degree. I am doing it solely through correspondence and online so I just have to finish by August 22nd. Please pray for me because it is hard to do school work with Cameron running around. I am also still working for home, although I do not have alot of files right now. Just one file to be exact. Oh well, I don't know how I would have time for any more. Chris is in Austin most of the week, but we are getting to spend most weekends with him in addition to some week nigths. It is really not working out bad. We are anxious to move still so we can see him every night. I am 25 weeks today so Miss Calleigh is getting closer to her big entrance. I can't wait, or can I? As I get closer to the 3rd trimester mark, I remember how smaller I used to be and how much energy I used to have. I get pretty tired after Cameron goes to bed these days. I pretty much melt into the bed at night. I wish I had more time to see everyone but hopefully once I get caught up on some things I can travel more. Just so everyone knows, I miss you all and hope to see you soon.

Cameron took a nap on the way to Nana & Papa's and woke up with some crazy hair.

Daddy is showing us how it is done.

Look at that swing! Tiger, here we come.

Me and my boy

He would not put the golf ball down long enough to ride the zebra. He kept slipping but he would not drop the ball. that kid

I am not sure if he could make a bigger mess! This was dad's idea which is why dad gave him a bath that night.

Cameron & Savannah


Cameron is not too sure about her at times, but he does love her!
