On April 9th, Cameron turned three years old! I can't believe my baby is that old already. It just seems like we had him in Houston and was blessing him with our families present on Easter Sunday. We had a family birthday party on Sunday for him. We had a bbq and had cake and ice cream. It was perfect weather, so we ate on the patio and enjoyed watching the kids play together. Chris and I got him a big boy bike with training wheels. He does great on flat surfaces, but if he hits a slight hill, it's all over. Even though he knows how to break using his pedals, he forgets if he starts going too fast!
Chris went to Houston for his second to last board exam. He said it went well. He goes again this weekend for the last one! He'll be putting a lot of miles on his truck this next month. He has to go to Houston three more times before May 13th. On the 5th I'll be going down with him for a banquet Friday night and there is a beach party down at Galveston on Saturday. (Of course I'll have to find a maternity swimsuit b/c my new one I got last summer definately won't fit). We'll go for a little while and then come home that night. The last trip, he'll be there a week for one last course that ends the day before graduation. So our parents, the boys and I will drive down and meet him on the 13th for graduation that evening.
I've been quite busy myself the past two weeks. Chris' sister needed to return to work after her maternity leave, so I've been babysitting her three kids. I've been taking Cameron with me each morning, and Chris has been taken Colin to school. Our moms have been wonderful to help out and pick him up after school since I don't get home until 4:30. I will be babysitting for 3 more weeks. It was tough at first, but the kids are getting along better and we try to get out everyday. I even ventured to Walmart with all four kids today! I just had to set the rules before we got out of the car. No one is getting out of the cart! They were great!
Chris has also had a few interviews with dr.'s in the Dallas area. He's so excited to be going through this process.
This past weekend of course was Easter, but Chris and I also made a quick trip to Houston on Saturday. Some dear friends of ours were sealed to their adopted baby who is about 7 months old now. It was so neat to be there. What a beautiful experience. It was fun to see other friends that we hadn't seen since we left. Great people!
We got home Saturday evening and got to color eggs with the boys and get them ready for church on Sunday. Sunday was my brothers birthday as well, so we had dinner at moms. Colin taught the family night lesson and taught us all about the resurrection. It's amazing how these children listen to what is being taught in church. He wrote it all out on paper. It's fun to have him read and write.
Colin also started 'modified coach pitch' practice. He is on the Red Sox team with a few friends from his school class. It's fun going to practices and games for my little guy! I like being a 'sport mom'!
Everyone have a great week and month!
I love my little family and can't wait to have #3. My husband is so good to me, and the boys get more and more enjoyable each day!
