Camden {8 Months}

A week or so ago I asked my dear friend Kelsey Crowder of Kelsey Claire Photography to take come pics of Camden to document her spunky personality. I swear these babies grow up waaay to fast. And I couldn't be happier with the results. They display her personality exactly the way I wanted them too. She is full of spunk and silliness. She has been my worst sleeper but I dare say she is the silliest of my kids. She will laugh at everything. Nico has a little thing that he come in real close to her face and says "debit cards" really funny and she dies every time. Even if she's crying to she will stop to laugh at Nico. I'm excited to see how wicked her little sense of humor becomes as she grows up. I can't imagine my life without my little Cami.

Soccer and Sophie

Well my second little girl started soccer. I can remember when Sydney started, and now that seems so long ago. And now it's Sophie's turn. I love my little soccer star Part 2. I'm anxious to see what she brings to the soccer table. In the mean time she sure looks darling in her uniform and sparkly hair bow.

Christmas Eve 2010

We spent Christmas Eve with Nick's family at his brother's house. Every year we get together, eat some yummy food, open gifts from one another and enjoy the caos. I tried to catch some good moments but my camera was frustrating me. I couldn't find the right setting I needed for the lighting at the house. But I'm sure some day I'll look back at these pics and love them. And I do love my little ones darling faces.

It was a great Christmas Eve

Knotts Merry Farm

ok, my confession. Yes we did go to Knotts Berry Farm, but all I did was snap pics of my family, not on the rides or attractions. I just went to town with my camera. Prepare for pic overload.

A little explanation:

We go to Knotts every December because they honor police and fire during the month. So Nick and I get in free and the kids get in for $15. Totally affordable. We ride fast roller coasters, wait in really long Camp Snoopy lines, and have a great day. We can usually do the entire park in about 4-5 hours. This year Sophie wanted to go on all the roller coasters and she was too short. When are MY kids ever to short to ride on anything. Well they insist she be 48 inches. Lame. Disneyland doesn't have the same requirements. She was so sad when she couldn't ride all the exciting roller coasters and her siblings that could ride them didn't want to. Nick said she will be his dare devil. That they will have so much fun together because she isn't a chicken and wants to ride all the thrilling rides with him. We had a really fun day. Even though Camden only rode on 1 ride.

Prepare yourself for all the love I captured.

(daddy and his dare devil)

(I know both Camden and Nick claim to have a mutual dislike for one another, but these pics prove the LOVE..... look and HIM & HER)

(my handsome prince, how I adore him)

(who can deny this cuteness?)

(when did she grow up?)

(I can't believe I have a gaggle of children)

(kill me now with all his gorgeousness)

(and when did I blink and this beauty emerge?)

(LOVE, LOVE, LOVE......)

I am so truly blessed.
