3 Months

Our number 3 is 3 months today! Chase just gets cuter everyday. He is a pretty great baby too. He sleeps through the night most nights and really only fusses when he is hungry or tired. Camryn came home from school last week with a cold and passed it on to Chase so he hasn't been himself the past few days. He has a hard time getting comfy. Last night we moved him from his crib to his bouncy chair to help him with the coughing and it seemed to work. He started on some meds last night so hopfully the poor little fellow will feel better soon.

Camryn is still enjoying school. Her teacher tells me all the time that she is a hard worker and a good helper which I'm super thankful for. She's come a long way from when she was 2 and in Mrs. Hewitt's preschool class. I got asked to come and "discipline" her at least twice a week! The other day I sent her 2 caprisuns in her lunchbox because I wasn't sure if 1 would be enough (I normally send a thermos). That afternoon when I picked her up from school she said "Mommy, you gave me 2 sunburns!" HAHA!

As for Grant, well, he's just Grant. Never a dull moment with this kid. His days are spent obsessing about the Wiggles, getting into stuff he shouldn't, and taking his clothes off and sometimes his diaper too. I love being the mommy to these 3 kids! God has blessed me way more than I deserve. It is a lot of work, but I enjoy every minute of it...well, almost every minute of it!

Happy Birthday Mom!

Today is my mom's birthday. She is 51 today and looks more like 31! I love you Mom. Thanks for being a great example to me of a godly mom and wife. I am truly blessed to call you my mom!

School

Camryn is officially a Kindergartner! So far she loves school and can't wait to go everyday. She is still having a hard time saying goodbye in the morning, but I'm sure she will get past it soon or I at least I hope she will. She doesn't full on cry she just tugs at our clothes and doesn't want to let go when we hug her goodbye. She had her first bit of homework this weekend and she was so excited about it. Since when did having homework become exciting?! I guess it makes her feel all grown-up to say she has homework. It was an all-about-me sheet that we had to fill out plus she had to bring a few things with her to school that represented her. One of the questions was if you had a million dollars what would you do with it and her answer was "share". Isn't that sweet?! I didn't even tell her to say that! Another one of the questions was what to do you like least about school. She thought and thought and finally said "well I like everything about school so I guess coming home." Well, thanks a lot Camryn!! HAHA!! I'm glad she likes school that much! I think her favorite part of the day is the special classes they get to do like, art, PE, music, etc. She really loves PE and the teacher who she calls "coach". She told us a couple of days ago that everybody calls him "Coach Fields" because he likes being outside. I don't think she understands that his last name is really "Fields"! Funny kid! She starts dance class tonight. She will be learning tap, jazz, and ballet. I hope she does well because if you've been around her for very long you know she is super clumsy. Maybe this will help her be a little more graceful! We shall see!

Happy Birthday Grant!

Our sweet Grant turned 2 on August 4th! Where has the time gone? I can't believe how big he is getting. He is talking more and more everyday. Yesterday he found a bag of clothes that a friend had given to us for him and he pulled out a shirt and put it on all by my himself. He ran into the kitchen where I was doing the dishes and yelled "Mama, Mama, coo shirt!! Coo shirt!" He thought his new shirt was pretty cool! So to celebrate his birthday we had a small party for him at Rotary park in Suntree which is on the Indian River. It was hot, but the breeze was really nice under the pavilion. Camryn and Grant had a blast playing in the water. Once Grant opened his gifts, he was done with the water and had a blast playing with all his new toys. He is obsessed with the Wiggles and that is not an exaggeration. That's pretty much all he talks about. So for his birthday, and thanks to his grandparents, he got everything Wiggles that Toys R Us sells! Here are some pictures of his special day.
