Achey Breaky Heart

Not sure why it has to hurt. But it does. I miss my girl. I love her so much. She's been gone longer than she was here but it hasn't helped the pain. Camden keeps us busy..worn out most of the time. He's wonderful and I love him so much. But nothing can replace my girl or fill the hole in my heart. I love you Grace Dyan!!!!

Camden is a hoot. We just took a weekend trip up to Oklahoma. He was in his full terrible twos mode. He did pretty well considering how much we were in the car, how hot it was, and how much we did. I have to give him credit for those. But it was definitely a "driving adventure" ;)
He's a hoot. I forgot all the stories I was going to share. Perhaps another time.

Hook Em!

Movin on up

They are starting to transition Camden up to the next age group at school. He is doing so well! I know it's an age thing too, but he really is very bright. Keven has taught him that whenever he is given change he runs into our bedroom to the change jar and put it in. Very sweet. I turned my back on him the other day and when I turned back around he was sitting in his high chair - got up there all by himself. It didn't have the tray in it so he climed on up. The high chair has since been packed away. So then we have one of those booster seats that is strapped to our dining room chair. He climbed up in that one too! But the best part of it was that he was trying to buckle the lap belt around himself. Too cute!!! He helps the teacher at school sometimes because he does so well at listening and following directions. When he wants too. He definitely has selective hearing here at home. He still loves to dance any time he hears music. Yesterday he was singing to himself. That was the cutest and something new. He was just playing and singing his own little song. He likes to help me with the laundary - as long as it's not anything of his. I have to wash his clothes, blankets and bibs when he isn't home or is asleep. He recognizes Grace in pictures, very sweet. He says her name and tilts his head when he sees her. Of course it's not really her name but it's the same sound every time. Later this month we head to Oklahoma for a fundraiser with some friends. One of their sons has SMA Type I. We went last year and had a good time. Staying longer this time so we are excited. We are also driving this time...and hoping Camden will handle it alright. He doesn't like being in the car much - he can't move! We're taking a DVD but he's not big on TV. Something else that I am very thankful for. We went to cousin Giuliano's birthday party a couple of weeks ago. Big boys, lots of food and cake, and a swimming pool. Camden had a blast!

Til next time...take care!
