Happy Easter

Just wanted to wish you all a Happy Easter! He is risen and He is Lord!
I love this song that says...

Living He Loved Me, Dying He Saved Me, Buried He Carried My Sins Far Away, Rising He Justified Freely Forever, One Day He's Coming, Oh Glorious Day!

We had such a fun weekend at the lake for Campbell's first Easter weekend! I am so blessed with an amazing family and rich traditions. We have had Easter at the lake (3 different ones over my life so far) for as long as I can remember and I hope Campbell gets to enjoy it her whole life too :)

Here are a few pics from today and this weekend! And I will get to Campbell's 11 month post sometime this week...lots and lots to get done before my baby girl turns 1!

A few little things...

Today, while I was waiting on the UPS man to get here with our new credit cards because we had been compromised (SCARY, but no damage done, PTL), I had on the American Idol from last week that had been DVR'd. Campbell proceeded to dance (bob up and down) and clap when her favorite singers got done! Randomly she liked Jessica! It was absolutely the cutest thing, and I could kick myself for not having my video camera out. Speaking of that, I have GOT to delete some stuff from my IPhone so I can take more photos and videos...I never thought I would have needed the phone with more memory than I have. Guess that comes with having a baby ;)

My baby girl is doing more and more. She is so happy these days minus the teething, which, by the way, are coming in on top, yay! I fed her pizza today for lunch and she went to town! She is definitely mine and Jacob's daughter. We love pizza!

Cami is walking everywhere and is pretty good at it too. She is attempting to climb on things, which is too much for me. She needs to slow down. We went to visit Jacob's parents this past weekend, and Campbell loved riding in the red wagon and playing with her cousins...Thomas roared and growled at her and she just giggled and smiled! She did awesome on both trips in the car.

We are excited for Campbell's first Easter at the lake coming up! We are also planning a fun photoshoot with her favorite Aunt Casey! Can't wait for that!

The next month will be busy for me as we get ready for my sweet girl's first birthday! It will be here in just a little over a month! What an incredible blessing she has been and continues to be. I am reminded daily of the Lord's redemption and faithfulness when I look at her.

And just because I can't go without posting a pic of my girl...

And her favorite thing when she gets in her highchair now is to feed Duke. Oh boy!

Ok, hope you all have an awesome week!

A Lately Post...

So, yes, I know I have been MIA lately...and I do apologize. We have had lots of fun, exciting things going on here lately, most of all is just seeing baby girl take her first steps and then running with them. She is ALL OVER and wants to WALK to get there! She is getting TOO BIG! We are having so much fun, but also I may be just a tad bit overwhelmed. I feel like I chase her around the entire day and get absolutely nothing done; and I hate that feeling, but I guess that's the life of a first-time mommy!

I need to work on getting better video of her walking, but here are a few snippets from where she started to how she was a few days ago, and even over the last 2 days she has practically started running; or moving those two little feet as fast as she can go! It's pretty darn cute!

(I'm sorry for the bad video. Can't figure out why it shows up like this from my IPhone...)

My next goal is also to get her to talk on video. She is saying mama, daddy (literally, not dada :)), and that's about it...a lot of baba and other baby babble!

Enjoy the pics of Campbell and her first experience with bubbles. And, thanks to Aunt Casey, silly string!

Campbell and Grammy were cracking up! C loved the bubbles!

Naked baby time is the best ;)

This is pretty much all I see of my girl these days, the backside!

10 Incredible Months!

Yes, another month has flown by! I'm still having a hard time believing Campbell is 10 months old, but what really gets me is that I will be planning a 1st birthday party soon! Whoa...where has the last year gone?

Here's what little miss C has been up to lately...
Ummm.....walking! She actually really walked really good for the first time yesterday on her 10 month birthday. Over the last month, Campbell went from pulling up the crusing EVERYWHERE to standing good on her own, to taking lots of steps without falling. We are so proud of our girl, but know we are really in for it! She's ALL OVER THE PLACE now, what is my life going to be like when she's truly walking.

We are having so much fun. She loves to laugh at her daddy still. She throws her head back and gives a big belly laugh. She also has no fear. I love how independent she is, but can only imagine what that is going to turn into as she gets older. She is so sweet. She loves to put her forehead against mine.

She still has 2 teeth on the bottom. Wearing 9-12 month clothing and size 3 diapers. She just got a new pair of shoes, size 4.5. That seems big, but what do I know?

She will sing with me in the car and loves when I put the phone on speaker with whoever I'm talking to. She will just mumble and squeal back, it's so cute!

Campbell is an absolute joy and we are loving every minute with her.

Here are just a few pics I tried to take. She doesn't know what it means to sit still :)

Happy Birthday to the man of the house!

We had a great day Saturday celebrating my sweet husband. He had a very good birthday starting the weekend before when his parents came for a visit; and then having lunch with my parents, Mo & Poppy, and then opening the BEST gift EVER! HAHA... I guess I'm just proud of my purchase. I did my homework and got some help, but it was something I've been wanting to do for him for a while. He deserves it! He works so hard to provide for our family and would do anything for his girls. We sure do love you!

So here it is.... his new gun!

I am also going to say Happy 10 months to my sweet girl! When I get a chance for a little photo-shoot, I will do a REAL post! I love you guys and hope you all have a great week!

So pretty, ready for church!

Love this grin

Lots of swinging lately

P.S. Will you all say a prayer for my Poppy...he is having surgery Wednesday around noon. I would really appreciate it!
