April 23

Today Cameron & Caleb went to Chipotle for lunch. They have a new kids meal with a quesadilla, rice, beans and this tiny little bag of chips. I put it next to my phone so you could see how small it really is. Hehe.

April 22

Tonight after work everyone came over to our house for dinner. After dinner the boys cuddled on the couch and watched Toy Story. Look how cute they are holding hands.

I promise we did not set this up, they did it on their own.

April 21

Tonight we went to dinner at Harry's and Shenan & London came with us. We had such a yummy dinner and then came back to our house to dye some Easter eggs together. The boys sure had fun coloring their eggs.

April 20

Back to Disneyland today! Actually we spent the day at California Adventure. Yesterday Nana bought the boys these cute Lightning McQueen t-shirts so they could match again. Auntie Janet came with us today and we all had so much fun! Cameron fell asleep as we were winding down our day and some of the adults were doing some shopping. He was so so tired.

April 19

Disneyland day 1! I took the day off from work today and Mom, Dad, Kim, Chris, Ashley, Aaron, Cameron & I came to Disneyland. Caleb had to go to school :( . Here are the cute hugging cousins on the tram excited to start their day.

April 18

My iPad 2 finally came today!!! I am very excited to start using it!

April 17

Today is Wendy's birthday party. The Karayannis finally flew in today after their attempts to get here yesterday and came straight to the party from the airport. Cameron woke up this morning with a yucky sounding cough and I didn't want to take any chances by bringing him to the party, so he and Caleb stayed home and I am flying solo.

Here are Aaron & Madalyn playing together. Looks like they are up to no good to me.

Cute boy Aaron sitting in Uncle Tommy's tree lounging chair thing.

April 16

Tonight we were supposed to go to LAX to pick up Kim, Chris, Aaron & Ashley. There was bad weather in DC and Nashville (their connecting flight), something about tornadoes I think, so after several hours at the airport their flight was eventually canceled. They should be able to fly out tomorrow morning and will be here in the afternoon, for a week! So, instead tonight I had to settle for taking a bubble bath. Of course it was nice, but I would have rather seen my sister.

April 15

Cameron was very cute before bed tonight. He was trying so hard to put Woody on his little Lego Bullseye. Then he would hold them up and carry the two of them around with Woody riding Bullseye.

April 14

Alright alright, I know this is a horrible picture. I was trying to get a shot of Cameron sleeping in this cute little pose. I was sure that the flash would wake him up, but it was so dark in his room the camera was having a hard time focusing. Then he started stirring, so I figured I better get out of there while the getting was good. But look at his cute little leg crossed over with his foot flat on the bed.

April 13

Here is Cameron eating a homemade bean & cheese burrito. Caleb and I had chicken and black bean burritos, and this was Cameron's version.

April 12

Stir Fry night. I love this stir fry, its so so yummy, and it has so many veggies in it. This is one of the things that goes perfectly in this big pan that used to be my grandpa's. He used it all the time, and I used it when I made Thanksgiving dinner at their house. I love it.

April 11

I had some catching up to do tonight, so my picture today is me blogging.

April 10

Today was a much needed jammy day. I was looking forward to it all week. Cameron sometimes likes to "hide" underneath blankets, so today I made him a little fort. He loved crawling in there, and just sat in his fort watching a movie.












Here he is inside his fort watching.....

Wait for it.......




Toy Story!!! What a surprise, I know.

April 9


Snow!!! Last night was very cold and we had some rain at home. The forecast called for some snow fall at work overnight. So, as I was driving to work I could tell that the mountains where the bank is were covered in snow. As soon as I got off the freeway there was snow everywhere! Doesn't it look so beautiful??? I was a pretty light layer and was gone by about noon, but I'll take it!

April 8

Whenever Cameron is up at NanaGrampy's house he usually goes down to check the mail with Grampy. Once they get down there, Grampy gives Cameron the key, he knows which number is theirs and he opens it up by himself to look inside.

April 7

Lately on my days off Cameron will take a shower with me in the morning. This morning after our shower I just put him in a diaper while I finished getting ready. He climbed up on our bed to watch Mickey Mouse Clubhouse and covered himself up with the pillows.

April 6

Me and my sweet little goof ball.

April 5

Tonight we went to Mee Maw & Grandpa Jim's house for Auntie Shen's birthday (tomorrow). Here is Cameron helping Auntie Shen open some of her presents.

April 4

I got Cameron some fun new soap. Toy Story big boy soap. He was so excited he just looked at the bottle the whole time and didn't even play with his bath toys.

April 3

Caleb was in Temecula all weekend for SCPA Championship Prelims. Once the show was over on Sunday evening he, a few other SCPA peeps and a couple judges drove up to have dinner near the airport, since those judges were flying out of Ontario. So, Cameron and I got to meet them at Harry's for dinner! Which was nice because I hadn't yet come up with something to make the two of us. Here's Cameron standing on the bench outside the restaurant and looking out the window.

April 2

Well tonight at about 8:30 the DirecTV scan finally completed and about 56 hours after it started it seemed to be working normally. See there are all of our recorded programs, only 26% free!

That didn't last long. When I was getting ready to go upstairs I tried to turn it off and it started scanning again. Good thing I had thought to write down all our shows that we hadn't watched yet, so now we should be able to catch up by getting the shows online. This time of year we always get so backed up because Caleb gets super busy as the percussion season comes to an end, so this couldn't have happened at a worse time. Oh well, they are sending us a new receiver, in 2-5 days. We better have it in time for American Idol on Wednesday!

April 1

Well this could be dangerous. Today I started playing Words with Friends. It is sooo addicting already. So far I am playing with my dad, Caleb and a friend of mine from work. Dad won our first game against each other today, who else wants to play??

March 31

This afternoon while my dad was watching Cameron at our house, the TV froze. When he reset it, this is what it said, that was at 12:30, and this picture was taken at 9:30. 9 hours and 17% complete, I would say 'This process may take several hours' doesn't quite cover it. I will keep you updated.

March 30

Here is Phipps sitting on the arm of the couch. Every night after Cameron goes to bed, he comes downstairs and makes every effort to sit close to either Caleb or I.

March 29

Tonight is our Fantasy Baseball Draft. Caleb and I went straight to mom & dads house after work where they were waiting with Cameron & Panera. Cameron was not too interested in his dinner, but I thought he was just being difficult since he didn't take a nap. So after the draft was over my mom was sitting with him so he would eat his mac & cheese. Finally, once he had eaten all but 1 or 2 bites he looked at Nana and said, "Nana, too much." He got a funny look on his face and threw all that mac & cheese back up. Here he is cuddling, and soon to be falling asleep, with his daddy while watching baseball. Poor little guy said, "tummy hurts."

March 28

While we were at Kim & Chris' house Cameron became enamored with Aaron's Mr. & Mrs. Potato Head. He played with them constantly while we were there. So when we got home Caleb got out his Angels Mr. Potato Head for Cameron, which he calls "Little Mr. Tato Head".

March 27

Time to go home. Here is one more sleeping picture of my sweet little man. He was such a good boy on the airplane today, especially considering he slept for the last hour.







Here is a picture as we were coming in to land in Ontario. The sky was covered in a blanket of clouds as far as I could see. Isn't is pretty?

March 26

Today we are in Rock Hill, SC which is about 30 minutes south of Charlotte. Caleb is judging an indoor percussion show today, so Cameron and I are on our own. I found a couple fun things to do, but they were all outside and it ended up raining all day. Not light misty rain either, full on showers non stop. So Cameron and I dropped Caleb off at the high school, after a very yummy Cracker Barrel breakfast together. We went back to the hotel room and hung out there, Cameron played with his toys and I read my kindle. We also did all of our laundry since we were stuck inside anyways, so we could go home with clean clothes, leaving me less to do when we go home tomorrow. We walked back over to Cracker Barrel, in the same parking lot, for lunch which was just as good as breakfast!


I couldn't get the little guy to take a nap today so after dinner he got very sleepy. He was laying on his belly (above) watching Cars on his iPad. Finally he just rolled over on to his back closed his eyes and fell asleep. Although he never sleeps on his back very long before turning on to his tummy. Look how cute he is.
