Daddy's Home!

Everybody loves when daddy gets back from out of town. I have learned that I will get to talk to him when the kids go to sleep so I don't even try anymore! They were playing on the floor so I started snapping pics. I actually got one good one where everyone was looking. Calleigh was laughing so hard but I kept missing it. Daddy created her own amusement ride and she loved it. Cameron was just jumping on everybody and that was plenty fun for him. It is so great to see them all playing together. I know I will have many more pics of them playing as the years pass.

Bath Time

I had been bathing Cal on a sponge in the big tub but it gets so hard to make sure it is clean and dry. I got this bathtub when Cameron was little but I never used it. I decided to try it out and I could not get her to sit still. She loves it can keeps moving all around, making bath time even more fun!

Calleigh Eating

I get so behind on posting so this happened a couple of weeks ago. This was the first time we put Calleigh in the high chair to eat instead of her bumbo chair, since she can sit up much better now. She is not happy when you are slow or stop feeding her. I have learned to be quick and ready to pick her up when it is gone. She is eating very well and I have yet to find a fruit or veggie that she does not like, though carrots seem to be the favorite. She was 16.8 lbs. and 27 inches long at her 6 month appointment. She has tailed off a bit in her weight since she is more active now. She is such a joy to be around that we have so much fun with her. Cameron likes to make her laugh, even though it doesn't take much. They are quite a pair!

Blood, sweat, and tears...

Ok, just a lot of sweat! Chris decided to make Cameron a toddler bed during his vacation. He worked most of the week on it, and Cameron is sleeping in it for the first time tonight. We are so proud. I know he is already 2 1/2 and some kids have been out of their baby beds for a while now, but not Cam. We didn't want to spring the new bed on him when Calleigh was born and he was not ready before she was born. Anyway, here we are with the new bed. We had debated for a while exactly what to do and we opted for a toddler bed, instead of a large bed. We are also in the process of redoing his room in his favorite, CARS! So right now the room is not complete and the color doesn't exactly match, but I will post pics of the room when we are done. It may be a little while since nothing happens quickly with 2 kids! Chris did an awesome job and his son LOVES the bed. He calls it is cars big boy bed.

Finally...Both Looking!

Calleigh Sits

She is getting better every day at sitting. She is alot less wobbly now and her back is more straight every time. She still is not the biggest fan of tummy time but she is getting better. She also has two teeth on the bottom that are just below the skin. For this reason, she is chewing EVERYTHING she can get those little hands on. However, it has not affected her mood one bit. She is still sleeping through the night and always smiling. She is also growing so big. I just bought her summer clothes and I bought 12 months in some of them, and they fit! She is so long. Everything is big through the middle section but fits in length. Most moms would be hoping for a model, I am hoping for a basketball player! Fingers crossed...

Calleigh Likes Carrots

Happy Birthday Nana!

Mom recently turned 39 again, or so she says. I will give it to her because I am sure I will hold at 39 when I reach it too. We went to eat at Buck N Loons in Arlington and had a birthday cake and ice cream for her. Cameron stayed up to almost midnight and had cake at 11:00! Needless to say he slept to 10! Calleigh was a trooper as she stayed up to 10:00, when her bed time is 8:00. It is always a late night at Nana's! Funny story about her gift. Chris and I got her a set of Rachael Ray knives and when she went to open the case to check them out, they were not there! She had to take them back and get another box. She would probably have thought I tried to keep them, but I have the same set!

Look at her hand, like mom what are you doing?
