Play Date at the Park!!

Today we had a play date and picnic at the park with Robyn, Bryson, Kara, Rhet and Lilly. I was so excited about this even though I knew Camdyn wouldn't really get to "play" very much...HOWEVER, I decided that she should at least get out of the car seat/stroller for just a bit!! SO...she had her first ride down the slide and her first swing experience...with mommy of course. And I think she loved it! Thanks guys for a great play date and we can't wait for more!!

I loved the swing!

Weeeeeee

My sweet sweet baby!!

Uncle Parkes and Aunt Meredith came to visit!!!

My brother and his fiancee Meredith were finally able to make a trip to come and visit us and meet Camdyn. With their busy schedules with work and planning for their wedding they were only able to plan to come visit us for a quick weekend...Friday night until Sunday afternoon...WELL DELTA HAD OTHER PLANS FOR THEM...unfortunately they were delayed out of Richmond to Atlanta and missed their connection in Atlanta, which happened to be the last flight they had to Wichita...so we only got to spend about 24 hours with them...Even thought it was short, it was a wonderful trip and I know we all wish we had had more time together!! I think they will be back soon! Camdyn loved them both!!

Uncle Parkes couldn't wait to get home and hold Camdyn!!! And watch the Carolina football game...LOL

A little bonding time with my Uncle Parkes...he didn't like it too much when I cried though...LOL

Aunt Meredith brought me a lot of Clemson clothes so I was ready to watch the game...oh and this just happened to be one of my favorite spots to chill...

Told ya...I loved this spot...put me right to sleep!

THANKS FOR COMING TO VISIT UNCLE PARKES AND AUNT MERE!!! We miss you already and can't wait for you to come back!!

Camdyn's 2 month check up!

It's been so long since I have blogged...I know an update on Camdyn is well overdue. We just had her 2 month check up on Friday and she is growing like a weed! She weighs 11lbs 1oz and is 22.5 inches long! She had to get 4 shots this time and let me tell you she put on a show. That cry was pitiful & heart breaking for the nurse and I! We were so glad that Justin was there to calm her down. He does so great with her and she just calms the second he picks her up and talks to her. She is a daddy's girl for sure!!
Not only is she growing but she is smiling now and does well watching and following your face or toys. We still have a lot of work to do on tummy time though. She has a very strong neck and head but does not like to use her arms to hold herself up when she is on her tummy. We have had a few days of great sleep (7-8 hours) but still most nights are small short lived snoozes of about 3-4 hours. Daddy has been a huge help with feeding her bottles at night so mommy gets to go to bed early. I think they enjoy their bonding time. She seems so much more relaxed with Daddy. Guess she gets tired of hanging with me all day...LOL.
This month we are getting ready to have a lot of family in town and we are looking forward to that. My brother and his fiancee', Meredith will be here next weekend and then Grandma and Grandpa Donlan and Great Grandma and Great Grandpa Allen will be here a week later and then Pappy Ralph and Grandma Debbie will be here towards the end of the month. It will be a busy one but I'm sure we will have a blast! They are all looking forward to meeting Camdyn!

FOOTBALL KICKOFF!!!

I love fall mostly because I am a huge college football fan!! Camdyn has graciously volunteered to be a cheerleader along with her mommy for game day! Check out her adorable outfits!

GO GAMECOCKS!!!

GO TIGERS!

Camdyn's One Month Old...A LITTLE LATE BUT HAD TO POST VIDEO

I had been waiting to post this because I was trying to get a video of Camdyn smiling loaded...but I have not had any luck with that...so instead I am posting this late with some pics of Camdyn. She started smiling while Justin was away in Alaska. These were all taken around month 1.

Happy Baby! First real smile caught on camera!
