Goodbye Highchair

Well....Goodbye highchair! I can't believe it. Our baby isn't even 2 yet and she has already graduated out of the highchair. Unreal.

As of lately, Cami has been insistent that she no longer wanted to sit in her highchair, but wanted to join us at the table. So off to Wal-Mart I went and invested in a booster seat. She is thrilled and hasn't missed a beat, literally it took zero time for her to get accustomed to it.

Christmas Present from Aunt Karen(and family)

Christmas continues....

Yesterday when we got home from picking up Daddy at work we found a very special package on the front step. Cami was insistent that it be open right away. Really insistent! So while I was cooking dinner (and snapping a few pics) Cami and Daddy put together her new shopping cart!

"helping" daddy put it together
reading the instructions (which sounds something like this.... book two daddy food...) you get the idea
Let the playing begin!!!
If this doesn't say... "Thank You Aunt Karen"... I don't know what does!

We took a break in the action to have supper. Then she played with it virtually non-stop until bed time.

Thanks Karen you picked a winner!

the start of Christmas

Christmas has already begun at the Williams Household. Being that both sets of grandparents live out of town Cami is already getting to open and play with her presents.

Libby's parents came up for Thanksgiving. They did Christmas with Cami (pictures coming soon). She got a kitchen, games and a dvd & dvd player for the car. I must say that the kitchen is the biggest hit. She loves it and is constantly cooking food and bringing to Matt and I.

Matt's parents bought her a tricycle. Although we are going to be at their house for Christmas, we opted to get the trike here as it is bulky and would be impossible to get home. So today was the day that Matt decided to put it together. Sorry if the pics are out of order.

Loving it.

Matt's Surgery

Hey Everyone.

Well, we are at the 1 week mark. Matt had surgery one week ago tomorrow. He is doing remarkably well. His pain is tolerable and he is recovering better than any of us expected. He still needs help with certain tasks and will be on crutches for at least another 3 weeks, but we are pleased with his progress.

We are so thankful that Matt's parents were able to be here to help us through this tough time. Matt's dad Carroll went home today, we were able to convince Matt's mom to stay on a few extra days to help with Cami. Matt is planning on going back to work tomorrow, I will be going with him to help him so Cami and Grandma will be hanging out together.

Here Matt is working from home. Busily on his laptop in bed.'

Thanks to everyone who has kept Matt and our family in your thoughts and prayers.

Etsy Page

Hey everyone!

Well as most of you know, I have been making bows and bow holders for sometime now. I began making them for Cami and then stated giving them as gifts. I have decided to sell these handmade accessories on Etsy.

Please take some time and check out my shop. Also please pass the word to friends or family that may have little girls

Watercolors with Grandma

Cami has definitely been enjoying having her grandparents here from KS. She and grandma have been painting with watercolors and playing with play dough. It has been a huge blessing to have the extra hands around the house while Matt is laid up. Cami is enjoying the extra attention too!

Halloween 2010

What a fun holiday season it is turning out to be. Halloween kicked things off. Our little lady bug enjoyed herself. Libby's mom and dad were up. We trick-or-treated at Daddy's office Friday, went to the pumpkin patch and trick-or-treated on Sunday. Not to mention carved pumpkins and handed out candy to other kids. All and all a great start to many fun holiday memories ahead of us this year.
