A little Update

Sorry to everyone that I've been such a blogging slacker lately. I have to blame it first on laziness, second on sickness. First I had a nasty cold that I passed onto Cam who also developed an ear infection from it...then when we were finally getting better I got a stomach flu bug of some-sort. I'm just hoping we are getting all these bugs out now so that we'll have a good trip to New York. (Cam and I are flying there Thursday and Dan is joining us next week for Thanksgiving). I am so excited to be going home to see all our family. I'm mostly excited for them to all see Cam again. He is getting so big and everything he is doing lately is so cute! As far as pregnancy stuff goes, everything is going great...feeling a lot of baby "action"...lots of cravings..chicken tortilla soup and tacos are the most recent, I'm hoping to get some tummy shots soon to post on here, I can't believe how big I've gotten already! Dan is doing great...he is assistant coaching a high-school team here and is at his first game with them tonight...I guess they stink, but hey, at least he is getting experience and time on the ice :). Oh and we had our first snow-fall today! It was pretty fun to see snow falling, although the ground is still warm so it all melted :(. I can't wait for it to accumulate so Cam can go out and play in it! I'm starting to love winter more, but I think it's just cause it's only beginning, when it's been cold and dreary for 4 months it may be a different story! Well...that's about all that's new here. Sorry no new pics to post...Cam's had a runny nose and I haven't been to eager to grab the camera lately. But I'm sure I'll have fun ones when we get back from our NY trip. :)

Dan's Seattle/Vancouver Trip


While Dan was TDY in Seattle a couple weeks ago he had the oppertunity to drive up to Vancouver.

To see the Vancouver Canucks take on the Edmonton Oilers of course :).
(If any of you don't know, Dan's favorite team is Vancouver and this is a "top 10" on his list of things to do before he dies) So needless to say, he was pretty pumped to be there.

Dan totally took this picture for me, every hockey game we go to the cotten candy is the highlight for me, espacially when the guy comes around with it! :)

This is a picture Dan took in Seattle. He said it was really awesome there, but the traffic was a nightmare! He had a great trip, but Cam and I were super excited to have him come home. A week without Daddy was a long time! :)




Cam's Halloween







Sorry it's been a while since I updated!! It's been kinda hectic lately, then I got a nasty cold-bug. I forgot how much it stinks to be sick while your pregnant...colds last FOREVER! Anyway, we took our little "giraffe" around the neighborhood for Halloween last week. Cam loved the lights and decorations and all the other kids running around. We have alot of great friends that live close so it was fun seeing everyone out and about and their kids all dressed up. Cam did pretty well, he mostly was interested in running around and looking at things rather then getting candy, but he got the hang of it. He figured out how to pick up the candy then put it in his pumpkin, it was pretty dang cute! The first picture is of our pumpkins that I finally carved the night before. I had forgotten what a project it is, not to mention, messy! I have to remember next year to prepare more so I don't make such a mess! Oh, and yes....that is a leash on Cam...although I have always been 'anti-leash' the kid is getting soooo fast! He just takes off! So I got a monkey backpack with a tail that you can hang onto to put on him when we go outside and espacially for my trip home at the end of the month. I just was worried about having him in a crowded airport by myself trying to keep him from running away. Cam actually likes it, and gets excited whenever he sees his "monkey" cause that means we're going outside. So as much as I hate to say it, yes, Cam wears a leash when we go for walks....
