Seconds from Crawling

Our big boy is so close to crawling! I know it's going to happen any day now.

He's following closely behind Sophie, who started crawling right about this same time.

Happy New Year!

I'm starting the year off by making a promise to myself. Instead of a resolution, I'm promising to blog more. Since welcoming Camden into our family almost nine months ago, life has been a little crazy. Adjusting to two kids and then moving (basically twice!) and remodeling our kitchen has taken all of my energy. Things finally seemed to fall into place and then the holidays rolled in and we all know how that time of the year goes.

I took a little break from the blogosphere thinking that it would help me "be more present" but I'm ready to jump back in. Instead of only iPhone photos and instagram, I'm promising myself that I will use my big camera to take quality pictures of my kids and use this blog to document their little lives. My days are filled with the joy that these two crazy kids bring me and this is my space to share it.

Eight Months

Plus about two weeks.

He wants to crawl. Loves to eat. Claps and talks and melts our hearts. Camden is growing like a weed.

I swear his hair isn't red, just some weird lighting going.

Six Months

A lot has happened since I last decided to post something on here. We went to Disneyland, vacationed in Hawaii, Sophie turned three, we finally moved into our house and had a big party for the birthday girl, and Camden has hit all kinds of milestones! He is six months old and rolls over, sits on his own, bites with those two tiny teeth and cracks us up every day. We started him on food at four months so he is already eating a variety of things and grabbing for more. This boy is a kicking machine, he can not hold still for one minute. He has blisters on his toes from jumping and his ankles just from kicking and giving himself little rug burns! He is a happy little guy and so mellow. We love him so much!

Life's Latest

I've got so many great pictures to share from my big camera, but it's taking me way to long to get those downloaded and on to the blog. So for now, we have updates from my iPhone. Some day I'll have my camera, my computer and working internet all in the same place. Here is a little peak into what we've had going on lately...

Most importantly, we've been loving on our big boy, who is growing like a weed! He turned five months on the 17th and changes daily.

We've started feeding him simple solid foods and he's not sure what he thinks. Some days he likes them, some days he purses his little lips and won't let that spoon in.

We tailgated for the first Fresno State home game.

Then poor little Camden got sick. After a couple of week of Sophie in preschool, I think sadly some germs came home with her and our little guy caught the worst of it. He was a trooper though and back to his happy self in no time.

We helped Baba celebrate his 87th birthday!

Camden found his toes and has been holding on to them ever since.

Sophie picked up a new hobby...karaoke.

Our cabinets have been installed and we are starting to see our kitchen take shape! Appliances are here and are being installed and the counter tops are in progress.

Sophie got an early birthday surprise from Mimi, a Sofia the First dress and tickets to Disney Jr's Pirates and Princesses show. She loved it and danced in the aisle.

And just this last weekend, another early birthday celebration...Disneyland. We visited the Magic Kingdom with four other families. All five families have little girls who are all turning three within a month of each other and they amazingly all have little brothers ranging from 3 months to one year. These girls all became friends through The Little Gym when most of them were just about a year old and it has been so fun to watch their friendships develop.
