I created a big post and it was going crazy on me so here are a few pics for now. I will update and put up more later. It was pretty good. The weather was horrible but hey the kids had fun and it is what it is. No more outdoor birthdays for us though.
Too long so I made it shorter but then too short. Oh well still learning:)
My 2 dresses
Addi in hers!
Me and my little girl.
I am trying to sew. I thought I needed a hobby and I thought this one was very rewarding. I have a lot of learning to do that is for sure. But it is a lot of fun. So stay tuned for more outfits by Beth Dowlearn!!!
The girls riding on saddles. They are used to those
Don't know why it is sideways but here they are being bankers.

We took a drive out to New Braunfels and headed out to this wonderful children museum. It is great. I like it better then the San Antonio one. The San Antonio one is downtown and if you find parking anywhere close you have to pay and then there is ALWAYS field trips there. I have learned to call ahead see how many field trips they have that day and if so what time will they be there. There was a school when we were there but when they left it was so nice.
Anyway, I was a bit nervous thinking I would have the kids running to two different directions cause yes Cambry runs and has her own opinion and her own agenda. But we managed to stay together and all have a great time (as you can see by the pictures).
Now we have had a very bad stomach bug since Thursday. Addisyn has been super duper sick. It makes me so sad. She has lost 1 to 1/2 pounds and has not had anything to eat really except a banana since Thursday. Cambry started last night with her bout of this bug. I just hope they get to feeling better before Cambry's birthday next Saturday.
Have to love that one dimple my girls has.
Addisyn dressed up as the penguin to play the Wii. She saw and remembered that she had the outfit from halloween. I was so surprised she remembered.
Silly Addisyn likes to "ride the potty backwards" as she says!

Cambry loved the sand and had so much fun!
Look at the dolphin jumping in the background.

Don't know why it came out sideways but this is us celebrating 3 years of marriage.
Cambry snuggles with her blanket now
Well things have been busy here as normal. Cambry had another double ear infection poor girl and Addisyn is teething and it bothers her a lot. She has been running a high fever due to it and is just not feeling up to par. She has been better lately. I see an end in sight with Flu and Cold season almost over.
Addisyn says so many funny things these days. I always want to write them down but forget. So lets see. She is always a princess and wants you to call her princess at all times. This is coming from the girls who's mom is not the biggest fan of being know as a princess but somehow she insists. The funniest part was, I was trying to get Cambry to say Addi and Addi pipes in and says, " Can you say Princess?" Gosh sorry Addisyn, I forgot to teach Cambry to call you princess. So silly.
She also has an imaginary mouse. I thought there was one in my laundry room the other day but it was a bird anyway, Addisyn is into mice and she carries one around all the time. The best part is if we pretend to grab it or suddenly have it, she does not like that and wants it back ASAP.
She is also totally into picking out her clothes these days which normally consists of PJ's or a "Princess dress"(a pink dress). The other morning she work up at 6 crying!!! We went in to see what could possibly be so wrong that she was freaking out, well she was wearing Dora princess PJ's and decided that she wanted strawberry PJ's now. So we changed her and she was up for the day. Can you believe that silly girl.
Those are a few funny stories but trust me the list goes on and everyday it is something new.
Sea World opened back up and we got passes again. We took them this past weekend and they had great time. It was super busy due to Spring Break. We will not do that again but overall it was a great trip.
My latest adventure is I really want to try and sew. So I am going to. My mom bought me an extra early birthday present of a sewing machine and off I go!! Thanks mom and wish me luck. I have to success now to make my mom proud,right? I will post some of my work if it turns out ok.

My sweet pea is now 11 months old. Also a year and not a baby but a toddler. Knowing she is our last it is bittersweet. I am not the biggest fan of baby age but talk to me when she turns 2 and I am going to be so sad. Anyway, she is such a ham and on track. She loves to eat and already weights 20 pounds. Bigger then Addisyn for sure. I am wondering if her walking 100% will slim her down.
We have the roller coaster toy and she can climb up there and even push herself off. I need to get her doing it cause it is so funny. She rocks back and forth til she goes. That is her favor toy. She is also a "daddy's girl" . They both seem to flock to him more then me. I think it because he is 100% fun all the time.
Cambry loves to put on Mardi Gras beads. She has been able to put them on and take them off for awhile now but I always forget to type that.
She also can push up in the middle of the room now.
She loves this little boy I watch. They are 6 months apart but she wants to do everything he does.
Still naps twice a day and gets up at 4 to eat.
Loves to go for wagon rides.
Loves to play with her baby doll.
Can drink from a straw sippy cup.
Loves fruits and vegetables.
Does not seem like much has changed since last month. I took them to the zoo for the 1st time by myself and it was pretty successful. Cambry really wanted to show off her walking skills the whole time and Addi forgot to tell me she had to go to the bathroom and had an accident cause we could not make it in time. That was fun.
I am going to try really hard to love every day of my babys last days before she is a toddler.
Also no hemangioma as you can probably tell. Thank God and thanks to all who prayed for her.
Hanging at the park.
Cambry loving the park on this gorgeous day.
You ever wonder why people have tennis balls hanging in their garage. This is why. So they do not crash into the house like I did. OPPS!!!!
Celebrating Addisyn 1/2 birthday our latest tradition.
Now that is one cool 2 year old.
Cambry is such a cutie pie

That sums us up lately. Cambry is now 80% walker and 20% crawler. She tries to walk but if she falls she will just stay down and crawl. Every week she get better. You can see Addisyn cut her off when she was trying to walk. Of course Addisyn wants to how us how she can do it as well.
I started working for my friends company which run bootcamp classes(work out classes). I am teaching right now on Thursday at an elementary school to a group of teachers and then come April I will be teaching on Tuesday and Thursday nights at 7:30. It is stepping out of my comfort zone but I am really liking it. I am also getting a work out as well. An added bonus and I want to watch what I eat so when they see me are not like, "practice what you preach" type of thing. I also watch a little boy over here on Wednesday. His name is Brady and he is 16 months. He is so great. Just an amazing happy little boy. I am lucky to have found him. His mom is a nutritionist so I am learning some from her as well. I keep getting all these messages to start taking better care of myself. Maybe it is a sign.
So, wonderful days as in wonderful weather. Fun activities with the girls as they are getting older and we can do fun outings. That is what I love about my jobs. I can still do plenty of fun things with my girls.
Addisyn is doing wonderful with potty training. Can say her ABC's and count to 13. Knows her colors, shapes and we are now working on letter sounds and recognizing the letters. She will start pre-school next year 2 days a week. I think she is on track.
As for Cambry not too much since her last 10 month update, although I will be updating next week cause she will be 11 months so crazy. I am trying to see if I want to have a big party for her or just family. I need to get on that though.
(She was not happy on her blanket and stuffed animal picture)
Ok so I am a bit late but Cambry turned 10 months. She is so amazing. Here are a few of the things she is doing now.
*Has 6 teeth.
*Walks and takes about 5-10 steps. She tries and walking if it is a close range but if it is far she just drops down and crawls.
*Loves to do the "How big is Cambry"
* Says the normal "Mama" "Baba" "Dada"
* This is the most impressing thing to me is she can climb up the slide and go down it all by herself!!! I think that is very crazy and impressive.
*Goes to be at 8 and wakes up at 4:30 to eat and then awake at 6:45 for the day.
*Naps at 9:30 and 2.
*Her favorite toy is the Mardi Gras beads that she can put on and take off her self.
* Has piggie tails that are as big as Addisyn's!!!!
*Still hates the car!
*Gets the happiest baby award every time I pick her up from church. They all just love her cause she is so happy.
*Eats everything we eat. She does not really dig baby food but will eat all her fruits and veggies with us.
Well that is about all I can think of now. She is a cutie pie and growing up so fast. She definitely seems like a mature 10 month old.
Here are a couple videos of Cambry talking and learning to explore and Addisyn playing her favorite game. She has a great imagination.
