I got my new ring Sooooo pretty! I’ll attach a picture. It’s a 1ct Sapphire in white gold. No children were harmed in the making of this ring. (See my blog about diamonds)

Here’s a picture of the kids and their grandma Patty waving goodbye this morning to their Dad. This morning, Paige ran up to me with her arms open to give me a hug! It’s the first real hug where she came to me to get one. She always hugs when I pick her up, but this was different. She gave one to her Daddy too. She’s asleep in her crib right now. Good baby! She already woke up once, but went back to sleep. Maybe she’ll actually sleep in her crib all night someday! LOL!

Mom and Dad came over this weekend. Mom got her hair done and Paigie and I went downtown with her. Dad, Jeff and Cammy boy stayed here and put up the rest of the lattice around the deck and finished the rail over to the fence to enclose the yard. Sunday, Jeff and I finished the gate and now our yard is completely enclosed again. Woo hoo!!

I purchased Cam’s fort this weekend and hopefully we’ll be able to put it up soon. Mom and I are going to try to do it ourselves.

Happy Birthday, Grandma! February 24, 2006

Today is Grandma Patty’s birthday! Happy Birthday! She and great-grandma came over for dinner tonight and we had pasta. The kids were kind of crazy, but they had fun.

Cam has gone two nights in a row without wearing a diaper to bed and he hasn’t had an accident. I’m really excited about not having to buy him diapers anymore. Now, if Paige will figure out that toilet thing…

My bum hurts when I sneeze. Paige pulled my chair out from under me and I sat down hard on the wood floor. Ouch! I was in pain, laying on the floor half laughing, half crying and Paigie came over and made a sad face and laid down next to me. She is so sweet. I think that’s the first time I’ve seen her sympathize with someone.

My silly kids… Cam on the couch this morning, Paige after eating strawberries yesterday and silly boy Cam again.

Tuesday February 22, 2006

Paige and Cam are being really quiet at the moment! they have a big cardboard box that we made into a house with doors and windows and they colored all over it. Right now, they are going through all of my stickers and sticking them all over the box. So fun! I think Paige is multi-tasking.. her face is red and she may be filling her pants.

Paige now says ’stuck’. I like when she tells me stories and goes on and on and uses her hands to gesture and I have no idea what she is saying. It does look pretty interesting though. She still loves to go ’round’ and insists we all run around the house over and over and over until someone collapses from exhaustion.

Cam and I made paper hats yesterday. Paige really liked hers too, but wouldn’t hold still and I couldn’t find the flash, so I was out of luck, but Cam sure is adorable in his! He is a great poser for the Camera. I added Paige’s picture anyway, sorry it’s blurry. Remember, Jeff is the photographer, not me

too tired February 18, 2006

I’ll blog tomorrow. I’m too tired.

New Website February 16, 2006

Jeff LaPlante Photography

Ok! It’s been live for a few days now but I figured I should blog about my new website! It’s here! I finally got some time to revamp everything. Tell me what you think!

I know there are still a few minor bugs with Internet Explorer to work out but that should be fixed fairly quickly. If you have any issues with the site or just want to tell me how great you think it is, send me an email.

An appetizing breakfast February 15, 2006

This morning, Cam had a waffle for breakfast. He looked at grandma and said “this would be more appetizing with syrup on it. “
Yesterday news..
Zoe was in Paige’s way so she just growled at Zoe who moved for her. Zoe is taller than Paige! Silly dog. Good dog, but silly.
I put bubbles in Paige’s bath last night and they scared her! She stood up and started crying and saying ‘up up up!’ After I pushed some bubbles aside and showed her that she could still see her feet, she felt much better about it. She still refused to sit down until the bubbles went away.
After bath, the kids and I ran laps around the middle of the house. Cam turned out all of the lights and we ran in the dark. It was a hoot! Paige laughed and ran until she was so tired she couldn’t stand up. She still wanted to run, but I was exhausted so Cam took her on one more lap before bed.

Valentine’s Day! February 14, 2006

Wow, it SNOWED overnight! What a surprise. Cam loved it, of course. He went next door to Mikayla and Trevor’s house to play until his grandma came over. She brought the kids Valentines… really cute books in the shape of mobile phones. they have a button on them that makes it ring. SO cute. The kids think they are great. Paige keeps pushing the button and giggling. They also got some conversation hearts and cards from Grandma and Great Grandma. I got the kids little shovels. Haha, how’s that for a gift? I got them though so the kids could dig in the yard with me when we start weeding. I know Cam loves to help and it will be fun for them to have their own little tools.

Jeff brought me roses! He’s so sweet. He also brought home some paper dividers/holders for me to organize my scrapbook paper. I’ve been looking for something to use for that. He is a wonderful husband. I am going to take his watch in and have it engraved on the back.

Dancing in the moonlight February 11, 2006

Last night, at his grandparents’ house, Cam got to dance in the moonlight to drum music. Pappa put on a cd and Cam danced and danced until he was exhausted. He didn’t want to quit, but finally Pappa had to turn it off so they could go to sleep. Cam crashed hard. Today he gets to go to a birthday party for a little girl who lives next to his grandparents.

Today, Paige is helping me scrapbook. We’ll see how much I can get done

I miss my Cammy boy February 11, 2006

Little Cam went to visit his gramma and papa again until Sunday. I know he is having a fabulous time, but I still miss him. I want to kiss him good night and tell him I love him. He looked so adorable riding off with his gramma in his car seat, waving out the window.

I tried to scrapbook a bit today, but I didn’t get much past hauling everything out. Paige wants to get into everything. She threw a bunch of beads and kept messing up my paper. She sure did have a great time destroying everything. Paige likes trying to give me belly blows. She doesn’t quite get it, but does a good job sliming my tummy. Anytime someone leaves she likes to chase them to the door and say “BYE… See you”. Oh and Cam called tonight to say goodnight and he told Paige he loved her. Paige replied with “bye.. see you”. very cute in her little voice.
