Yes! our Family has grown by 1 small member........Its a boy!!! Boy bunny! hahaha. It's so soft and cute. but poops like its going out of style. So we want to get rid of it. Cam pushes it around for rides in the laundry basket!! and every morning when we wake up (actually every morning when Camryn and CLINT wake up) they go say Hi to the bunny. And cam says (in the sweetest little Cam Cam voice) "oh!!! Hi Bunny!!! She gets SOOO excited when it runs around our apartment. She starts running in place.


A week or so ago we went to a water park. It was fun! mainly because i LOVE being in the sunshine and needed some serious warmth. cam was a regular Diva, and wore her sunglasses, and was flirting with all the other guys in our office. Thayne and Krystal came with and their twins loved the water! Harldy any rides allowed little ones. Unlike the pools in utah. But they had fun splashing in the wave pool. Cam would laugh histerically when clint would "pretend" to get pummelled by the waves. Secretly i think he was Really getting pummelled. (sp? and is pummelled even a word? pronounced 'PUH-MOLD')

Oh and biggest reason why I had to blog. CamBam is 18 Months today. NOT last month. I am so bad with math when it comes to months....Clint told cam Happy 18 Months today, and I just pretended I had known all along that it was today. Oopsy!

18 Months Old!!!! And Long Beach

Cam and Waddles. Unseperable

18 months old. Do you know what this means??? NURSERY!!!! oh yea. now i can actually pay attention in church. Last week was the first week of sunday school sans the toddler. It was soo nice. Anyways besides the fact that I'm glad she's in nursery, She's doing so many cute things now. She makes me bust up laughing atleast 5 times a day. other kids used to do cute things, but when it's your own child for some reason it really is sooooo much cuter! She really makes me so happy!!
She's now saying:

Daddy
Da-tee (when she's impatient)
Doggy
Kucky (when she picks up something gross)
Chaco (rileys dog, she's now confused on what the dog actually says, first it was ROOF ROOF, now it's "CHACO")
Baby
Pretty!
UH-Ohhhhh
Nooooooo
pwease
karkey(she wont say mom so karley is the next best thing)
iiiiiiiiiiiiiii-00000000000-Daddyyyyyyyy! (I love daddy)

Oh and she speaks full sentences in Chinese/german. Atleast that's what it sounds like!!! she will call someone on my phone and chat forever!! she walks around holding the phone to her ear with her shoulder keeping it in place and pace around all over the house like she's on a phone call with her best friend talking about boys or something!!

She loves having her own phone, and credit card? where did this come from?? it definatley wasn't from me ;-). She also pretends to wear purses, and loves wearing her pink braves backpack around the house it looks so cute. it's so big on her and she looks like she's going to school. She loves putting on make up with me! she pulled out my makeup, a brush and started putting it on! i was so surprised that she knew the Brush was what you put the eye shadow on with, even though she was putting it on her cheeks. so cute.

How do I know she's my kid? Because she loves the pool!!! I'm so glad! she's deathly afriad of sand and the waves at the beach, but we'll work on that one.

She feeds her stuffed animals. She gives them some of her bottle, and actually burps them. The other day she fed Waddles (the penguin that has 9 lives) some fruit while we were at the beach. We have to spray at wash waddles once a week to keep him clean. You'll see she gives him a bath too.

her blonde curly hair is getting longer and she gets so many compliments from the old people in our building. It's strange for them to see such a light skin, blue eyes, blonde hair toddler. (besides the fact that trey, krew, logan, alexis and taylor are all blonde hair, light skin) our kids all look like they are related!

Some of the pics are of when we went to the Beach in New Jersey. Long Beach. It was way fun. I even swam in the ocean and had to duck dive some waves!!

Family visits!

At woodward skatepark...

Downtown Philadelphia, View from the Rocky Steps...yes we DID run up them!

My cute parents at the liberty bell

Kelson, Kaden, Camryn, Me, Jana

Arlington Cemetary, We saw the changing of the guards, it was Amazing!

Of course we find a statue with the name "Shepherd".

This last week my family came to visit us in Philadelphia, First we went to washington D.C.
We went through the White House, The Capitol tour and also saw Arlington National Cemetery. All of the places we went were so amazing to see. We were going to see some of the smithsonian museums but right about when we decided to go to the capitol tour instead of the holocaust museum there was a shooting in the Holocaust Museum. Scary!! we saw all these cops flying by us and even the police helicopter and had no idea what it was for, then once we got into the other building it was all over the tv's.

After we went to D.C. we came back to Philly. We went downtown and saw the Liberty Bell, the Department of Treasury mint, and on a "Duck Tour". It's a bus that's also a boat, so you take a tour of the city, then literally drive right into the water! it's pretty fun and they gave us quackers so we could all be really annoying to each other! Kaden wanted to go to the Woodward Skatepark so we also did that and he skated for about an hour there, it's a way cool skatepark. Oh and we also saw the Rocky Steps!! oh ya!!

We loved having them here and we already miss them. Cam Loved playing with everyone! anyways here are some pictures!

The Coast, Atlantic City, and The Museum

"Please-Touch Museum"

A few days ago we went with Krista and her kids, Trey and Krew to the "Please-Touch Museum".
Camryn Loved it! It's a museum that's designed to let the kids run around and explore and touch everything. The funniest part was when we got to the "grocery store" section of the museum. They have mini carts to let them pretend to grocery shop. Cam knew exactly what she was doing, she ran around with her cart getting cake mixes and boxes of crackers! It was Hilarious!!! I guess you guys know what i buy at the real grocery store. Oops!

Cam and Trey in their future wedding picture!

Going through the tunnel...

Playing the Piano. Hopefully she really does play the piano when she's older.



Atlantic City and the Coast....

Last Sunday we took a drive to the coast, This is one of the little boardwalk beaches we found, it was such nice weather, Perfect temperature and cam loved it! It's about 45 to an Hour away from where we live.

Wishing we were lifeguards!!

Philadelphia!

Here are my thoughts about Philadelphia and what we want to do.


First of all, A member of our bishopric, (jarrettown ward) looks EXACTLY like TOBY on "The Office". Not even kidding. I WILL get a picture before the summer is over. No Joke, i felt like i was watching the office. I couldn't even concentrate on the speakers.

Cam is growing up! She says "uh-oh" after she intentionally drops clints phone over and over again. The other day Beth and I were driving home from Nordstroms and Beth looks back at Cam and she had somehow gotten my Pack of gum and was eating the whole thing! her breath was so minty! but beth said "cam are you being Naughty?" and cam just said "naughty!!!" so cute.

If i give her a wipey, she will clean everything! I taught her good! she wipes off the coffee table and even the DVD player! She sees me Clorox wipe everything and copies me!

Clint is doing good so far! he wants to get 10 a week everyweek, and if we stayed in september he would be on pace to hit 200. He likes selling in Philadelphia and is a hard worker. We are proud of him. He had some lady answer the door with just a shirt and no UNDIES!! she let him in, and went to fill out paperwork and he said "you really dont have anything on huh?" hahaha he said it was the most awkward thing ever. He said she had to have been 350+. Poor clint.


My parents and brothers are coming out in two weeks! we are so excited to do everything, we have purposely not been doing tourist stuff because we want to do some with them and for if other family comes out. But cam and i have been exploring and having fun. There are 2 or 3 other wives out here that have kids and it's so nice to have other Moms!

Beth and i have been trying way hard to workout every single morning and i'm noticing a difference! I don't get tired playing with cam or carrying up bags of groceries. (ok...so we have an elevator. But we have lots of groceries!! ;-)

I have been so bad at taking pictures but once i get a tan maybe i'd feel better!

Philly April 09

Cam has been walking around with blankets on her head, running into the couch and table!
She loves clints SIDEKICK. he has a teenager phone its hilarious
Cam and Daddy after he got home from work!
Me and Boo
Its hard to get pictures with cam keeping her eyes open! but still a cutie
So we have been in Philly for a couple weeks now and we love it! we might end up staying until october! tons of good shopping, and lots of fun friends in our office this year. Clints good friend from H.S. is out here, and his wife Beth is my newest best friend! we love hanging out. Usually i hate the summers but i'm way excited for this one! Cam has like a million new BoyFriends in the office that keep her entertained while i do paperwork. We are excited to have visitors! We have been so busy that we don't ever blog and have been horrible at taking pictures. We're excited for the rest of our friends to get out here!! Cam misses her grandma's and grandpas and the rest of the family!

Baby Animal Days, and Agenda!

I can't believe were leaving for Philadelphia on WEDNESDAY! I Started packing, Then it turned into a deep clean of my house and getting rid of a ton of junk. Felt good. But i still havent completely packed.

Clint and I are leaving Wednesday to drive both cars, and cam will sleep at Jana and Clydes, then Grandma Nikki will fly her out on friday!

My blog posts are so pointless most of the time, But i find myself thinking "oh that would be a sweet post" like the other night, I was watching the movie "The Naked Gun" with Leslie Neilsen. He is like an older version on STEVE CARELL i swear!! watch it!

My other random thought was, "I think i'm becoming a Germ-a-phobe" i feel like i need to wear a mask and gloves anytime i clean my house. Maybe its that i work at a dentist office. Germs didn't used to bug me. Like sharing the same drink as someone wasnt a big deal. and if i didn't wash my sheets for a while it was fine. But now it seems like I can't sleep knowing my sheets arent clean. And today at work, i mistakedly picked up another girls DR PEPPER out of the fridge, and drank it, and as i was twisting the cap back on, saw her name on the top and almost threw up right then and there. She's a perfectly normal person that i'm sure brushes her teeth but still. BLAH! Have you ever seen the episode on SEINFIELD, where elaine dates a Germaphobe, and they all end up becoming Germaphobes after Kramer installed a Drain Disposal in his bathtub so he could make dinner in it? He even made a salad in the drain using the same bath water! hahaha.

Speaking of Seinfield, I also feel like elaine when she goes to the Dr, and she see's on her chart that the Dr wrote down that she's "Difficult". It really makes me want to read the dr's notes.

Anyways.............. Today we went to Baby Animal Days!! Cam is in love with anything furry that moves, But especially Dogs. Kristy, Travis and Myles came up to go to lunch, and go with us to baby animal days. I'll post some pics. We even saw BUFFALO. We jokingly asked the "mountain man" guy if we could ride them. And he was so dead serious saying it could kill us. The funny part is that kristy is like 9 months pregnant and he still thought we were serious! k well here's some pics. Enjoy.
