I know it's been a while since my last post... I really thought I could keep up a little more without working full-time!! I'm working on it! :) We haven't been up to a whole lot these days... just little things here and there that make the days and weeks seem to fly by! I can't believe it's already the beginning of August! We've had several play dates with friends, going on lots of walks, and bouncy house fun to keep things entertaining!
Gerry and I celebrated our 4th anniversary on July 30th! Again, it doesn't feel like we've been married for 4 years already! Since it was a Thursday and company was coming to our house, we went out on Saturday, July 25th for a little date night! It was great to get out!! Colby had a sleepover at my parents' house (in a nice air-conditioned house!!) and Gerry and I went to dinner and a movie. Just to add to the lateness of the evening, we came home and worked on finishing up Colby's new bedroom. Gerry is an amazing husband and a wonderful father... I am very lucky to spend my life with such a terrific man!
Some of Gerry's family arrived on Thursday, July 30th before a big camping weekend out at Ol'MacDonald's Resort near Stettler. It was a great time!! It was nice having our basement relatively developed, as there was plenty of playing room for all of the kids and room for everyone to sleep too. On Friday morning, we set out for the campground for the long weekend. It is such a fantastic campground for families and we really enjoy going there. The beach and lake are great, our sites were really nice, and overall, I think everyone had a great time! Colby didn't nap very well in the trailer this time out. Not sure why, but I think because he can get out of his toddler bed now, he has figured out how to climb out of his bunk bed in the trailer with no problem! It was also quite hot at the beginning of the weekend and it took a long time to get him to nap. We would go in the trailer to check on him, only to find him playing with toys, reading books, or up on the couch peeking out the blinds, greeting us with a lovely "Hi..."!! LOL! Too cute, but quite frustrating at times! Not sure where next year will take us with the Cameron crew...
Speaking of toddler beds, Colby is doing fairly well with his. We've only had a few nights where we've had to go in more than once or twice and put him back in bed. He enjoys playing in his closet or lying next to the fan, etc.! It is going MUCH better than I anticipated, so I've been happy with that! He has definitely adjusted to his new bedroom and loves playing in the new space! Without the glider rocking chair and book case, there is definitely more room in his new bedroom, which he loves to run and play in!! So far, so great!!
I'm now 32 weeks pregnant and still doing fine. I've heard quite a bit lately how small I am, which is kind of nice!! :) I'm carrying quite a bit differently with her than I did with Colby, so that makes a difference too, I think. I was supposed to have another check-up today, but my doctor had to do another delivery. That has happened several times now with re-scheduling. Oh well... could be me in about 8 weeks or so causing others to re-schedule!! We are working on getting her room set up and making it a bit more "girly". While it's very gender-neutral with the bedding and paint color, I'd like to add some pink in there, just because we can! :)
We are home this weekend and are looking forward to doing some work in the basement (doors up, etc.) and maybe working on setting up the kids' rooms a bit more. Colby has no decor up or anything yet, so that still needs some time!
I'm enjoying this nice break from the crazy hot weather we had near the end of July! Take care everyone!
Lesley, Gerry, Colby, and Baby!
xoxo
