So it begins!

Cami is rolling all over the place, and this is her next to her favorite attraction... JD's computer. Her favorite toy is the cable on the receiver for the wireless mouse and keyboard. She rolls that way pretty much every time I set her down.

Yes I left her alone with this toy for 5 minutes and this is how it ended up.

Helping with the laundry! Those big blue eyes get me every time!!!

She is starting to get into things... no more putting her on the floor and thinking she will stay there. I really need to get serious about baby proofing! The other day she rolled/scooted backwards all the way across the living room and into her bedroom.

"I like star wars too Dad!"

I can hardly believe that Cami is 6 months! She is getting to be so much fun. We are going to have to get serious about our baby proofing since she can roll all over the house now. She is eating solids pretty well and today at her 6 month appointment we found out that she is a little small... 13lbs 15 oz which I am not really surprised with how much she moves. I have trouble getting terribly concerned when she has little rolls on her arms and legs though. :) she did grow 1 inch so she is now 25 1/4th in. She laughs so much and is really an easy sweet baby. I feel so blessed to have this beautiful baby girl!

PS- notice how we started with shoes and ended with none... well I tried anyway!

Family Pictures

I hope Joni doesn't mind me putting these pictures on my blog, I just want everyone to see what a cute family I have. I can't believe how big our family is now!

Christmas Time...

I will be honest... there are tons of pictures in this post and they are all out of order and I am too impatient to fix it.. maybe I should make that my new years resolution. I just wanted to send you all an update of how we are doing. December was a super busy month as I am sure it was for all of you. We loved seeing so much of our families and we were truly blessed to have good road the 4 times we drove the route to/from Idaho in 2 weeks! It was a blessing for sure! As for what we are up to now, I am just working... like always, but enjoying it. Cami is so smiley and giggly and make being a parent so much fun! She is rolling all over the place and can almost sit up. She is so good natured and we feel so blessed to have her in our home. JD is starting his last semester of undergrad. We have heard back from lots of schools and just waiting to hear back from a few more... BYU and such! So that is us... Hope you all had a merry Christmas and Happy New Years... and a happy year to come!

We had a girls night the last night of our vacation. It was lots of fun! Thanks Mom and Leonora!

JD's birthday... at the Redds

Wow these are out of order... this is the Christmas Eve party... held on the 21st for the Redd extended family.

JD surprised me for Christmas...and spoiled me. When I opened it I just thought it was a text book and I was very curious as to why JD would give me that... then he said, "why don't you flip through the pages?" and look what I found!

JD's birthday at the Egbert's

I told you not to play with guns in the house :)

See this is what happens!

If you can't tell that is a dart on her head ;)

Cami getting to know her cousin Benjamin. They are 3 weeks apart... Maybe Cami needs to eat more huh?

but not his head!

We had a date night with the adult siblings... unfortunately we didn't get to all sit at the same table :(

FHE with all of us! That hasn't happened in years!!!

Picture time! I will post more of the family pictures later... or I bet Joni will since she is the one who took them :)

Game time!

Benjamin and Emma

Cami looks a little dazed, but she spent her entire vacation being held and loved! She was in heaven!

Yes she is eating and getting a little better but we are not pushing it too much.

Christmas dinner with the Egberts... on the 23rd.... we had to do everything on weird dates since I worked Christmas and Christmas eve. Everybody was so nice to accommodate us Thank you guys!

Christmas morning (on the 23rd) at the Egberts

Dad Egbert got an inversion table and we all gave it a try :)

Boys and their guns :)

Go BYU basketball!

Cami liked the paper more than the present I think :)

Meeting Joni and cousin Eli for the first time!
