Dancing and Boogers

Sorry it's been so long since we updated.  We've been busy!  I had my birthday and recovery week from that! Cameron has had a snotty nose.  She's been pretty good through it all.  We've been wiping the snotapillars like crazy though.

The girls have been learning their dances for their recital on December 17.  They are so cute to watch during class.  Avery is very excited for her recital.  I don't know if she really understands what it is, but she keeps asking how long until the recital and who is coming to watch her.  She's dancing to Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer.  She was singing the song after dance class last week.  Instead of singing Rudolph won't you guide my sleigh tonight she's been singing Rudolph won't you be my slave tonight.  It's so funny!

Avery seems to be excited about Thanksgiving also.  She keeps asking me when it is and who is coming and what we're eating.  I've been warning her that the food might not be the best since I'm doing the cooking for the first time this year!  But I'm excited to try.  Thankfully Jason is taking care of the turkey.  That's the scariest part for me.

I'll post pictures soon!

Halloween!

The girls had a blast for Halloween.  They got to wear their costumes to dance class.  It was tough that Halloween fell on a Monday, but we did it!  As usual Aunt Lorene came out to go Trick or Treating with us.  We got no pictures of the girls actually Trick or Treating.  The best part of it was that Cam got so shy and only said Trick or Treat at 2 of the 30 or so houses we went to.  Very uncharacteristic of her!

Updates, Updates, Updates!

Let's see.  I think the last time I was here Avery was sick.  She is now doing really well and just has a little cough.  Since she was sick we had Cam sleep in the play room in the pack n play for a night or 2.  On night one Cam is yelling for me.  I asked her what was wrong.  She says, "I can't sleep."  I answer, "Just shut your eyes."  Her comeback is, "Shut yer mouf."  Ya.  Needless to say Cam is getting sassier.  She now takes her diaper off at least once a day and usually at night.  I've tried putting panties on her and putting her on the potty, but she's not having that.  She also likes to crawl into bed with Jason and I around 3AM.  We've been letting her stay basically because we're too lazy to put her back in her bed.  We are having a twin bed delivered for her today so hopefully that will help.

Sammie turned 1!

Cam enjoyed the cupcakes!

So did Avery!

On a Wednesday

Avery has school on Wednesday's.  So today Cameron and I went to play at the Great Mall and do a little shopping.  We went into Carter's because there was something I was looking for as a Christmas present.  I was checking out and couldn't get Cameron to come with me.  I was the only person in the store so I was asking loudly for her to come here.  When I finally went to find her she was on top of their table to play with legos and throwing the chairs around the store.  Thankfully the workers had kids....
