Arthur Holding Camilla

County Fair

The county fair was held here a couple of weeks ago so we took the kids and met up with some friends. Arthur loved all of the animals and kept making his 'rawr' sound at them. He doesn't know very many animal noises except for roaring. There was a fire truck there that the kids could climb on and Arthur liked it until he got in there and then he wasn't so sure anymore. He also got a really cool fireman's hat and a balloon. Later on he decided to pull the ribbon tied to the balloon off of his wrist and I wasn't able to catch it before it flew up into the sky. Luckily he didn't mind that it was gone even though he loves balloons. Camilla basically slept through it all, which is usually what happens when she's in the baby carrier. It was a really fun night!

Doctor's Appointments

This past month Arthur had his 18 month and Camilla had her 2 month well-child check-up. The picture I took of Arthur was at one of the only moments he wasn't crying. Every time the nurse or doctor came in he would try to hide and would whine. I'm not even sure why because he's always been fine before and he didn't need to get shots this time, except for a little poke on the finger to do a lead screening. I guess it must have been just because it was a new office and it was unfamiliar to him. As for Camilla she didn't like having her clothes off and definitely did not like her immunizations, but she didn't cry as long as I was holding her. Unfortunately I took the pictures when she was the table so she was screaming within 10 seconds of me putting her down, but not before I got one picture without her crying.

Ready for Church

Arthur has grown quite a bit in the last few months so we needed to buy him some new shoes. So we bought some sneakers as well as a pair of dress shoes for church. He loves them and when he first tried them on he had a meltdown when I went to take them off. The second picture here he decided to goof off and be silly.

Yogurt is Yummy!

Arthur loves yogurt and would probably eat all day long if we'd let him. He's getting pretty good at feeding himself but still makes quite a mess of it. Often he will end up completely covered but it's worth it to help him learn how to use spoons and forks correctly.

Nap Time

This is a rare occurance. I hardly ever am able to take naps. Usually because both children rarely are napping at the same time. There are some pros to this situation but also some cons, one of which is that I don't get to nap. This is one of those times when I was able to only because it was a Sunday and so Tim was home. Arthur had been asleep in his crib and Camilla fell asleep in my arms. When Arthur woke up he wanted to cuddle with me and Camilla so Tim put him there. This resulted in him wanting to kiss Camilla which woke her up but I was too tired to even open my eyes.
