Way Late Recap of Easter and Campbell's Mermaid Birthday Party

So this is mostly going to be a picture dump of Easter and Campbell's party. We spent Easter with my parents and sister in Lubbock. It was a hard weekend, Callan was pretty sick, and felt like doing nothing. It was sad, but by Sunday, she perked up a little bit! Anyway,  here are a few of the pics...







And here's a few pics from Campbell's 3rd Mermaid Birthday Party!















I wish we would have gotten a pic of everyone that was at her party to help her celebrate! We are so blessed for so many family and friends who came to love on our girl! It was a super fun day!

Callan Blair - 11 months

So, yes, I'm a few days late on this post...we have had a crazy few days, and daddy is gone, so who has time to sit and blog. I'm making it a priority or it just won't get done. I'm going to also recap Campbell's mermaid birthday party later too.

So Callan turned 11 months on Saturday. We actually had a photo shoot scheduled for her 1st birthday coming up. Aunt Casey couldn't do the pics, but we had a friend of a friend who was gracious enough to do them, and I am soooo excited about them! Can't wait to see the finals!

So Callan is trying to walk so much. She will take 6-10 steps on her own and then fall. We've had many bumps, bruises, and cuts lately, but she is still going for it! She's standing more by herself. Her problem is she gets so excited and just tries to take off going way too fast! Her balance needs work, but she will be there in a few days or weeks!

So with that, she's keeping me sooooo busy! She doesn't want to be held, she wants to be let down to run wild. It can be hard at times, but we are making it!

She is saying hi/bye and waving! She will say hi to get your attention! Cutest thing ever.

She has 3 teeth. That's it so far! But she shows those pearly whites with the best grin!

We are so incredibly loving Callan's personality! She's funny, likes to play games, giggles at her daddy, sister, and Duke. She kind of loves him. Duke could care less, but he's gentle and patient with her and I'm so thankful!

She is starting to play more with her big sister. She could sit and play with the kitchen and play food for hours! I love watching them together. What a blessing to have a sister! I'm thankful for mine!

Callan Blair, you are such a light to our lives! We love you so much!

CAMPBELL is THREE!

Where has the time gone that my first-born is 3 years old now? We had a fun weekend celebrating her birthday with lots of friends and family, and then yesterday, I got to spend some one-on-one time with her with a trip to the Sealife Aquarium, lunch, and shopping!

A little bit about Campbell Grace:

She weighs 32 pounds 6 ounces (73%) and is 38.8 inches tall (87%). She is healthy, active, and we are so thankful for this!

Campbell enjoys her friends, especially Liam, and playing at the park! She is always wanting to be outside! She will sit through any movie...she loves to watch them! She is a singer, and dancer...and always asks her daddy to dance with her when one of the singing competition shows is on! She loves her daddy!

Her thing the past month or so has been to stand on the coffee table and announce: "Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, I present..." it's anything from her sister and her, to every member of her family, to something silly! She has quite the personality.

She is also getting some attitude. This has been a change lately, and I'm not liking it. Throwing fits, and being a little dramatic....I know it's normal for this age, but we don't have to like it!

She is such a good big sister! She always has a smile on her face when she sees Callan every morning! She hugs and kisses Callie, and watches out for her. She also helps me out with her...which makes her seem even bigger than she is!

Campbell loves arts and crafts. She knows her alphabet, numbers, colors, and shapes....She talks like such a big girl....it's hard to believe. She loves to have books read to her before naptime and bedtime! We visit the library frequently!
