A full circle..

It is coming upon one full year sense I have blogged. I am planning Camden's birthday and noticed that my last blog post was of his one year old birthday. What has happened in one year?? Where does the time go by? I am sad for this birthday to come, I am sad that Camden talks in full sentences, I am happy that he still wants me to rock him to sleep, I love that he kisses me on both cheeks and then the lips before he falls asleep. I am sad that he is my last child. I love that all he wants to do his hang out with daddy and play on the tractor, or carry his tool box around. I love seeing his bum in underwear, I LOVE that he always says please and thanks you. I enjoy that when you share or give him something he has been asking for he says "mommy nice." I love that he comes running and screaming when I come home and has to look at Bart and say "look mommy." I am sad that he is in a big boy bed. I truly am happy that I have the best partner to raise our little nuggets. I think we are doing a pretty good job and can't wait to see where this life takes us. Birthday pictures to come.

Buddy

I am sitting in the dark...my son is lying in his bed with his lamp on...music playing...and door open. I am trying to be so super quit so he puts himself to sleep tonight. Molly is wit maga and dad is at work...please listen to my prayers tonight. While I am on the subject of my Camden Quinn I will tell you what he has been up to lately. He is talking up a STORM...and quiet well I might add. His first word was dad...which was a little sad but I would have to agree it seemed like Bart had him more in the beginning than I did due to nursing school. His next word was Sage (our dog)..then onto Mom and Molly or sissy. Him and Molly get along so well..they have their moments but they truly love each other. He loves my mom and dad..and to him they are poppa and maga..(maa-gaa)...his own word. He loves talking on the phone and can carry a pretty good conversation. He lately wants us to rock him to sleep at night which some nights I am annoyed but then when he just lays there and gives me kisses until he falls asleep it's the absolute best! He was telling the other night while I was in his room....beep..beep..poppa..then started to wave his hand high in the air...and then I asked him if he rode the scooter with my dad that day and he smiled so big and shook his head yes. It was so cute...a little moment I will never forget. Camden is so polite and will say Thank You after everything...he has now added your name onto it..which melts my heart every time. He knows every animals name on the farm and says hello/goodbye every time we go up. He loves poppa Quinn's blue tractor..and is obsessed with anything that has a wheel on it. He will play with Molly's babies every now and again..I always tell him, your such a good daddy..he smiles. He has so much energy and isn't afraid of a thing. He watched and mimics Molly's every move and cry. He wants me to blow and kiss on whatever gets hurt and that makes it alright. He blows kisses when he says goodbye..and laughs at himself. He is such a people person and will talk and say hi to everyone. Last doctor appointment we went to he was tall...skinny..and his head was right on...we have called Camden "buddy" from the start...when Bart was little everyone called him "buddy bart"..that was not planned but in a way Camden did get some part of his name passed on to his son! I love Camden with all my heart and have a feeling he will always keep me on my toes. Sweet dreams buddy..I'll see you in the morning.

never to late...

Life..

I sit at night and reflect on the day and am so grateful for the life I have been given! I was raised by parents that I love and have become a women that I know they are proud of. I was taught a work ethic that has gotten me far in life. I was raised around a loving marriage...a love for my siblings and those around me. I was taught the importance of the knowledge and love of god. I am able to live a life I am proud of a marriage I cherish and two beautiful children I adore! I am thankful for the opportunities I have been given...the moments I cherish...and the unknown that I am about to embark on with the love of my life...two children in hand...and the love of my family behind me. I am truly blessed!!! To yesterday...today...and tomorrow..salute!

Halloween 2010

Halloween brought some fun times this year! Molly was Belle for Camden's birthday party.. she was a pink princess for preschool..she was a pirate princess for my work trick or treating and finally spiderman princess for Halloween night. My little Camden was a little peanut..it was freezing when we went to Bluffdale City's trunk or treat but each year gets funner and funner with Molly figuring everything out. Every year Bart's side of the family gets together and carves pumpkins..this year we went out to Katie's house cooked breakfast..played with cousins...and carved pumpkins. Another awesome Halloween has come and gone!

FIRST BiRtHdAy!

I can not believe that my baby is one! We decided to do a Halloween costume party..we had yummy Pb&J sandwiches..chips..treats..and cupcakes! Camden picked up his cupcake and smashed it in his hands and walked away..so needless to say we didn't get a picture of him digging in his first cake. We played games...painted pumpkins..and had a train that the gnome (Clay) drove all afternoon! I was so pleased with the weather and with everyone dressing up!
