Camryn pictures

Ok, here are some pictures finally!! First let me tell the birth story real quick. I went in to be induced at 3am on December 14th. They started the pitocin at 4 and I got my epidural at 5:30. The doctor came in and broke my water at 6:15. At 7:20 I woke up from a light doze and I was shaking pretty badly even though I wasn't cold and so the nurse checked me and Camryn was ready to be born. We then had to wait half an hour for the dr. to finish up with a surgery and then she came and I pushed twice and Camryn Brooke was born! It was so fast!! Nothing like Bryn and for that I am grateful. Camryn has been such a sweetheart so far. She only really cries when she is hungry, she sleeps well in her carseat and she loves to snuggle. She is a great baby and we are so happy she is here. I am trying to adjust to having 2 kiddos and I am not going to lie and say it is easy because it sure isn't. But I love them both and I know that once we get a routine down I will feel better. Expect more pictures after Christmas! We love you all and we will try to get some sort of birth announcement out soon.

Silly Bryn

So last Saturday we went to go pick out a pumpkin at Walmart and Bryn was so excited. I picked up a few pumpkins and then I found a pretty big one so I picked it up and held it up so that she could look at it. She was standing in the back of the cart and she looked at it and backed up as far as she could go in the cart. I asked her what was wrong and she said: "Mom, it's making me nervous!" I said What!?! And she told me it was because it would hurt her toes. So I put it back and got a different smaller one and she was perfectly fine with that one. Silly kids, sometimes they are so weird, but I sure love 'em!!

Projects

So I have been nesting lately and I decided to make some matching Christmas dresses. What a pain and I don't think I will attempt this again. Also if this baby turns out to be a boy he will be posing in this dress anyways because it was a lot of work. But I like how they turned out. Fun, we are ready to have this baby, but I still have 9 weeks if I go full term (I am praying that I go early!). The rag quilt I am making should be done soon and I will post that when I finish it. And tomorrow is Justin's birthday and so we are getting ready for that because Bryn loves birthdays, even when they aren't hers. And Halloween is coming up, one of my favorite holidays! Yay for candy.

Quick funny story

So yesterday Bryn came over to me, poked me and started saying something that sounded like a really bad swear word. I asked her to repeat it which she happily did about 20 times but I still couldn't tell if she was actually saying the naughty word or what. I finally just distracted her since the fastest way to make sure that she remembers and repeats that word is to tell her that it is a naughty word. So then today we were watching Night at the Museum 2 which is her current fave movie and I was half way listening when lo and behold I hear Ben Stiller saying, "I will fork you". In the movie he has a pitchfork and is threatening various bad guys with it and a light bulb went off in my brain. Bryn was trying to say "fork you" but her 'r's are not very good yet. So in the end I learned that 'fork' is not a word that she should say very often and sometimes imitation goes very awry.

Updates: Nothing much. We have been waiting for the cooler weather and enjoying life. My birthday was fun and I got a foot spa from Justin and I have to say he picked out a really nice one. And someday I will get him to use it on his (disgusting) feet. Bryn did it with me and it was so fun. I got to go to the zoo for a baby shower and even though it was a really hot day it was super fun and Bryn played in the water area and got her clothes soaked but it cooled her off. I was pretty jealous. She is developing the funniest imagination and I love to watch her play now. She was being naughty today so I put her in her crib for time out and then when I went in there to get her out she had arranged all her stuffed animals (20 or so) to be sleeping and so I took a picture of how she arranged everything and she is pretending to sleep too. She is so creative and smart! And I am so humble about it, right?
And in other news she is totally out of diapers except at night and even then she is working on that and her diaper is dry about half the time in the morning. YAY, I will only have 1 in diapers!!! And the pregnancy is going well. I am huge and so I am telling you not to expect any pictures. We will have to do family pictures as soon as it cools off enough so that I can go outside without sweating, but until then I will not be posting any. This little girl is very wiggly and fun though! She has already gotten the hiccups a few times and she is VERY active at night. We have another night own on our hands and all I have to say is that she had better adjust to night sleeping quickly!! Alright I know it isn't going to happen, but I can dream can't I? I can't wait to meet her (although I am not looking forward to the sleepless nights etc)! Only a few months left!!
