Happy Easter

We had a fun Easter dying eggs and just enjoying being with family. JD's parents were able to stay for the weekend and chill with us.

Cami wanted to help too... mostly she just watched.

Easter morning

Had to get some family pictures in our Easter best.

Story behind this picture is that Cami has been super feisty about diaper changes and getting dressed so this is after we had to tag team putting her pants on.

Saturday we went for a walk in the new nature walk area at BYU. It was a little chilly but it sure was pretty... it will be better in the summer when it is greener.

It had so many pretty waterfalls

Cami was super tired so it was hard to get a smile out of her. It was a perfect day for pictures though.

Congratulations JD! You made it! When we got married almost three years ago I was pretty sure it would take forever for you to finish school, but look you are half way done now! Yay! I am so proud of you! You work hard and have done well. Now it is on to the second half!

Cami really enjoyed the graduation as I am sure you can imagine... we had fun in the hallway for the last hour, since she was sure she could not be contained for one minute more.

We were lucky to have my Dad and JD's parents come celebrate with us. Thanks guys

Nine Months!!!!

I really can't believe she is nine months! It is crazy so here is the update. She had here appointment and she now weighs 15 1/2 lbs... little I know but at least she gained from her last one! Length is 26 1/4 in. She crawls really fast and pulls herself up next to everything. She stood up without anything the other day for a tiny bit! She has started spitting when we feed her solids sometimes which is not good... but funny and I have to remind myself not to laugh when she is naughty. She loves baths and has just started to feed herself those little puffs that dissolve quick. She also likes to bite/chew on everything, my nose, chin, leg, keys whatever she can fit in her mouth. She is a very happy baby and smiles often and laughs easily, as long as she is not hungry or cold.

She likes stuff in the mail too! That is pretty much the Cami update. Work is going well for me, and drum roll please...... JD is graduating next week! Yay! Of course we still have 3 years of law school ahead, but you have to celebrate the huge milestone of finishing your undergrad! I am so proud of JD he has worked hard to do well in school and did well on the LSAT, so that we could get some scholarships that cover a lot of the tuition so that law school won't be a huge debt. Way to go JD! I love you!!!!

Visitors

We have been lucky to have lots of visitors! We love visitors!!!!! JD's parents stopped here on General Conference weekend on their way home from Cali! JD's mom saved us from ripping out our hair Saturday night, Cami wasn't feeling well and I had worked Saturday and worked Sunday and I was tired and trying to get sleep and Cami was up pretty much most of the night. She had had a fever and just didn't feel well. It must have been a short bug though since she was feeling better on Sunday. But JD's mom was definitely a lifesaver that night!

My family got to come the weekend before to see us and go to Evan's homecoming, my cousin who recently returned from a mission to Germany! It was so fun to get to spend all this time with family!

Emma and Cami

Anna with Cami

Earlier that week the Hickenloopers came to visit during their spring break! It was so fun to see them and for Cami and Ainsley to play together... they were so funny to watch!

Watching the BYU game... too bad we lost, but we had lots of fun! Thanks for coming guys!

Practice makes... better!

I hope Scott and Wendy don't mind me putting up these pictures! They let me practice my photography skills when they came to visit us in March! It was so fun to see our buddies and play some games.

It is fun to take pictures... I need lots more practice to get better, so thanks Scott and Wendy for letting me practice on your cute family!

April Showers bring May Flowers...hopefully!

March was a hectic month... pretty sure I don't want to go to the insta care for a long time! Besides that we have been doing very well, we are all recovering. Cami's sleeping habits took a dive for the worst when she got her bad cold that lasted for 2 weeks. After that I think she started teething and so has had some trouble sleeping and is probably going through a growth spurt so needless to say we have been struggling to get sleep and just figure out life... who isn't right? After I got over my cold and another infection I came down with at the first of march, I broke out in the worst case of hives I've ever experienced and had to get put on some steroids to get rid of it. I decided I was done nursing when the doctor told me I couldn't breastfeed on the medication and I would be on it for 12 days. I think I would have gone nuts, so for my own sanity I quit, I made it 9 months right? Cami is a busy smiley little one and is so much fun and I just can't get over how cute she is, although I am completely biased! JD is almost done with school, three more days of classes and then just finals! I can't believe he graduates next week! On that note, we are leaning more toward Baylor and so might be selling our condo... so if you know anyone wanting to buy a cute place... ours might be for sale soon!

Cami's first trip to the library... no I did not get any books for her because she will just eat them, they were all for me!

My two favorite people!

I love this girl!

First time on the swing, she is not so sure about it, and she was a little grumpy that day :(

Cami really didn't like her first time sitting in the grass

Cami loves to play in her carseat, not really sure why...

She also loves my scarf!

The next few are projects I have been working on... this is a blanket I made... I totally ruined it and it looks terrible if you look close or look at the back, but it is soft and I love the fabric, and Cami just likes the flower in the middle.
