Passports & PJ's

When RJ surprised me with a trip to Playa he quitely realized the NIGHT before the trip that my passport was expired!!! Yes, that's right. We were supposed to be flying out Friday morning at 9am and Thursday night at 10pm he realized he should have checked my passport BEFORE he booked the trip. Oh well, it worked out after I begged the passport guy downtown Houston at 8am Friday morning to get my passport for me by Friday afternoon. Normally it takes 2 weeks to get a passport but I was not opposed to begging to get my passport that day. Luckily, the sweet old man's sister was kindergarten teacher and it sealed the deal! In the meantime, RJ was in charge of Campbell. This is what you get when you ask Daddy to watch her. He put her in the car in her pj's and then proceeded to give her EVERY toy in her bag when she started getting fussy. I had to take a picture-- at one time I looked up and she had 6 different toys in her carseat... ha ha... Poor thing was trying :)

7 Month Letter

Hi Sweet Baby Campbell!

I know I write this ever month, but you have changed the most this month. You are all over the place! I set you down in front of your favorite video and before I know it you are across the room... ha ha.. You are army crawling and rolling everywhere. You also like to sit in your tripod position without assistance.

Your first tooth came in this month! I have yet to get a good picture of it-- I can't capture it. It's the bottom right. Your daddy and I just can't believe you already have a tooth. You aren't a baby anymore (sniff sniff). You eat solid food for breakfast, lunch and dinner (along with your morning bottle, 10am, 2pm, 5pm and bedtime bottle). You are still an excellent sleeper. You sleep from 7pm to 7-7:30am (sometimes 8:30am). The cutest thing you have done this month is start to sleep on your side like a little adult. It's too cute.

Your daddy and I are in awe of how beautiful and sweet you are! You are so happy all the time! You are very ticklish and can really get to giggling hard when someone "counts your ribs" or kisses your neck. I love it! Your giggle is by far the sweetest sound I have ever heard in my whole life. I just want to record it and keep it forever.

You blew your first raspberries this month also. It's where you blow bubbles with your mouth. Your bff Madilyn has been doing it for a couple of months but you like to take your time. :)

This past month, your daddy surprised me with a trip to Playa. You stayed with Mia and Grandpa Bobby and had a really great time.

You are so observate. You watch everyone come and go. You are obsessed with Addy. You want to know where she's at all the time. If she jumps off the couch you watch her walk away and then try to crawl to where she went. You love to just look at her and smile like you are smiling at your best friend. It's cute.

You also got your highchair this month. You look so tiny sitting in it like a big girl. Then again you are tiny and petite. Your doctor said you are growing every month so it's nothing to be alarmed about. Mommy was always petite too so I guess you came by it honestly.

We are loving every minute of being your parents. It is truly the most rewarding (and exhausting) job there is. My heart breaks for all the people that never got to experience parenthood and all the happiness and joy it brings. There really is no greater love than love for your own child. You are absolutely perfect and I hope someday you look back at these letters and understand how much happiness you have brought us! I can't wait to see what God has in store for you! He has already blessed us with so much :)

We Love You,
Mommy and Daddy
(and Addy)

Gracie & Campbell

A couple of weeks ago, Gracie and Campbell had a playdate over at the Meijer household. I got them matching outfits and Laura and I had so much fun having a "Mommy Playdate" also :) I will say it was hard to catch a good picture of both girls-- one was always crawling (or running) away... ha ha... These two dolls are going to be the best of friends-- I JUST KNOW IT! Hold on to your wallets Daddys!

Campbell- 6 1/2 months old

Gracie- 20 months old

1st Family Pics

My sweet sweet friend Lane (of http://www.laneharrisphotography.com/) took some family pictures for me this past Sunday. Our very first family pictures so you can imagine how thrilled I am!! I told RJ this was all I wanted for Christmas! PICTURES! They turned out so good and I am so thankful for Lane. You see Lane is on maternity leave (Lucy Rose's mom) and I literally begged and pleaded for her to take our pictures because she knows exactly what I like and is just a great photographer. She also took C's tutu pictures a couple of weeks ago.

Campbell was such a natural too! I mean, look at her in front of the camera?-- she turns it on... ha ha... It was SO hot! My hair was hot rolled when we walked out the door and then went completely flat in the heat. Campbell also had been up the night before teething and we ended up going to the doctor the day after the pictures because of a cold.

Campbell- 7 months, 2 days
me- 29 years old

RJ- 30 years old

Happy 7 Months!

Miss Campbell May Moses turned 7 months on Friday! Can you believe it? She's so active these days-- where did my baby go?

Campbell's New Boyfriend

A couple of weeks ago Campbell and I went the the Woodlands to meet Leah and Clayton (and baby Anderson #2) for lunch at Cafe Express. I wanted to get a picture of the kids but never could I have imagined the "chemistry" between Clayton and Campbell :) ha ha.. It was so cute! Leah and I were cracking up rolling on the floor! Clayton wanted to "hold" Campbell (he is getting ready to be a Big Brother in January). Campbell couldn't believe there were boys her size-- she's only played with girls really. It was cute.... and Clayton gave Campbell a kiss!
