We have a love/hate relationship!

Oh blog, I have missed you! I think about you from time to time and know I've got to get back in the habit of updating. For now, I jot down cute kids happening on my facebook, random word document and the notepad on my iphone. Now, I just need to merge it all together with the billions of pictures I take! :)

We went to watch the Super Bowl at Jonathan & Molly's house last night so the kiddies slept till 9:30am which made the whole day get a late start. All that to say, the kids didn't go down for a nap til 3ish. Jonathan and Molly are some friend's we've made over the last year as a result of the Mother's Morning Out group that I've organized. I'm not really sure if I've posted on that yet. Guess I gotta go back and check. :)

Let's do an update on Miss Cameron!

Miss Cameron turned 19 months on Jan. 17th--my how time flies! That next week, she decided to "jump" out of her crib (she told me "I jump" when I went to get her after she was crying) so we knew it was time to convert her crib to toddler bed. She jumped back in the fall one time and I think I scared her to stay in the crib a little while longer.

So on Friday, January 27th, we converted her bed around 7:45pm. She was suuuppper excited and was jumping on the bed, putting her head on the pillow saying night night. We started to get her ready for bed around 8:30 and that's when the stalling started. She kept asking to hug everyone over and over again.
8:45: She got out of bed when Carter's cd player started playing music and she saw Aaron go in there to turn it off. He returned her to bed.
9:00 She got up to go peep around the corner to see Carter sleeping. Aaron returned her to bed.
9:03 Then she was hanging off the edge of the bed and fell out onto the body pillow on the floor. She figured out that she wouldn't get hurt so she fell out playing a 2nd time. That's when Aaron went in to get her a spanking. :)
9:08 Carter started coughing and Cameron started fake coughing in return.
9:10 Cameron says that Carter is crying (which he is) so I go into see him and he said he was crying because I didn't give him a hug. Usually I lay down for Carter for a few minutes upon his request. Well I told him I couldn't this night to help Cameron get to sleep on her own in her own bed. I guess that's where the hug got lost.
9:12 Cameron laid down for the first time. 9:19 Signing Up on the Rooftop.
9:25 She was hanging off the side of the bed because she dropped something on the floor and Aaron went back in the room to help her get back on her pillow.
9:34 Signing O Christmas Tree
9:45 Finally

I'm impressed with Cameron. I expected her stubborn personality to make this a challenge but then I was reminded that she's a quick learner as a girl! ;) Carter got out of bed 19 times the first night before falling asleep on his own...Cameron--2! :)


Excited about her "new bed"


Finally asleep!
