Just some cute pics

Moving the stool to the window opened up a whole new world of sites and sounds.

Now whose kid hasn't done this?

She loves to play in the crib, hates to sleep in it.

....and this is just a fraction of the stuffed animals that live in Camryn's room.

Cutie Pie.

Apparently shoe fetishes start early....and it doesnt matter how big they are or who they belong to, she's ALWAYS trying shoes on.

Cammy and Elmo.

New winter hat and mittens. Its been SOOO cold these past few weeks.

We LOVE Liberty Park!

I am so grateful we live close to nice, clean, toddler oriented parks. Liberty Park is our favorite because there is no sand, just cushiony, rubbery padding that is perfect for all the falls Camryn takes, and it has a really nice water sculpture and beautiful flowers for smelling.

She can climb on all of the structures, and the slides aren’t too steep. She LOVES the swing and slides, and has gone from cautious to fearless in just a few trips. She’s just like her daddy in the “fearless” department and I’m sure the first thing she’ll want to do when she turns 18 is jump out of a plane. Mommy will watch from the ground, as usual!

Daddy pushing.

Look at my hair Ma!

She goes down the slide all by herself.

Cammy and daddy making silly faces at each other.

It was difficult trying to leave the water sculpture. There was some kicking and screaming but that's normal right?



She had to smell at least 20 flowers.

My babies.

Fun with Blocks

Blocks, do they ever get old? Clearly this family still likes to play with blocks and we’re having some good times AND making great memories!

The best part about these old wooden blocks is they originally belonged to my dad and uncle which makes them 60+ years old, and then they were played with by the rest of the Anderson clan, the uncles and aunts, the cousins, the grand kids, the great grand kids, friends of the family, and many more.

These wooden blocks have literally been played with thousands of times and they are still fun to play with. The simplicity of the blocks inspires us to use our imaginations and we’ve come up with some great buildings. Josh came over and built the Lincoln Memorial and then the Parthenon (although I don’t have a picture), then Camryn knocked them all over of course. She’s great at stacking too – she continually amazes us with her talent and skill.

You're silly uncle Javi! Blocks don't go in your nose!

Our toothbrush made from the old wooden blocks. See, we CAN be creative.
