Off the charts...

On Wednesday, I took Cami to the pediatrician for her 4 month appointment (which included shots - yuck!), and I am happy to report that all is well. She is off the charts for height and weight...17.6 lbs and 27 1/2 inches long. WOW!

She did great too...just a quick holler when the needles went in, but then immediate silence. What a trooper. We are now going to start her on some fruits and veggies and see how that goes. Ty loved his and I have a feeling she will too. She seems to be a pretty healthy eater ;)

So, night came and you would never even have known she got shots earlier that day...she was all smiles. My lil' angel.

Feeling thankful...

I found out this morning that an old friend of mine lost his 6-year-old niece on Friday. Coincidentally, she had the same name as my own dear baby girl. It was a random occurence that very much happened in the blink of an eye. It saddened me greatly to think of anyone losing a loved one, least of all a child. But as much as I felt his loss, I also felt thankful and blessed. I have a wonderful family at home with 2 very healthy and rambunctious children and a wonderful husband/father. And it reminded me not to take anything for granted, because you never know what may happen. So, from now on... 1. I will make time for the people I love. I will no longer look at my phone when someone (family, friend, even co-worker) calls, and think "I am too busy right now, I will call them back later" because what if there isn't a later? 2. I will let my loved ones know just how much they ARE loved and appreciated. 3. And to quote John Mayer :) , I will always "say what I need to say." WHEW!! And on to the happy thoughts...sheesh.

4 months and droolin'

So, this is from this morning...right after I changed her clothes. Isn't she sweet? I guess she is teething, she is drooling so much and cannot keep her hands out of her mouth. She almost looks like she is whistling for me :) "Come and change my diaper now!"

Tyler was so cute the other day. He said "I wanna give baby sister a kiss" so his tutu (Reggie's mama) held her down over his head as he was laying down and had Camryn give Tyler a kiss. He jumped up completely disgusted and said, "tutu, quick! Clean my mouth! Baby sister drooooled on me...." Poor Ty. He just doesn't know, does he?

I am online!

Okay, so everyone wanted me to start a blog (it's the new thing apparently!) and I tried to tell them that I am not very good at it but what the hey :) here I am! I figured it was a great way for everyone to keep up with how much the kids are growing and doing, especially those of you we don't see on a regular basis. We miss all of you, by the way! It's still in construction mode so bear with me...hopefully it won't take too much longer and I will have some good stories and pics up. Wish me luck on keeping it updated!
