Camille is 8 Months
Whew....this 8 months has FLOWN by quicker than any other in my life! This angel is truly just that, an ANGEL! We are all obsessed with this sweet thing. She's content, happy, a decent sleeper, just an absolute joy!
Some updates on this sweet bundle of joy...
Teeth: Baby has 2 bottom teeth. So stinking cute! We're pretty sure she is cutting more, but only 2 visible ones.
Tricks: It is only a matter of time before we have a crawler. I'm in no rush, I'm not ready for my baby to be mobile. She gets up on all 4s and rocks back and forth. She has started waving, babbles up a storm, and recently started pulling up on things. I basically want her to stay my sweet little baby forever and not reach milestones, but alas, she must grow up. I am just trying to soak in every second!
Eating: She is still nursing about 5 times a day. Just within the last week we habe introduced solids. She has tried bananas, sweet potatoes, avacado, strawberries, and puffs. I don't think she loves any of it. She'll eat it a little, but still prefers to nurse.
Size: This is hard to estimate for me. She is in 6-9 month clothes, some 3 month smocked things. She is definitely bigger than Haisley was at this age. She is in size 3 diapers.

Benton is 2 1/2 Years Old
Our sweet precious Benton is two and a half years old. In a lot of ways, I sometimes think that he is older than he really is. I think it is because he has a big sister...and he is big! He weighs about 34 lbs and I'm not sure how tall. He wears a 3T and size 8 shoes.
A few months ago, Benton said he wanted to wear underwear. It was a little early in my opinion, but we figured we would give it a try. He does excellent teeteeing in the potty, and horrendous with pooping. Poops in his pants EVERY. SINGLE. DAY. I have found that if he is naked, he will poop in the potty. The only problem is that we are not home long enough to stay naked!
Benton is still an EXCELLENT eater. He still does not like cheese, bread, grapes, or pasta. He will basically eat anything else!
Sleeping....it is touch and go. He is a nightmare if he skips his nap, but will go to bed early and generally sleep through the night. If he does nap, it is about a 2 hour nap. He has been getting up in the middle of the night and wondering around the house...kinda scary...He also gets up extremely early. We're talking 4:30-5:30, and wakes up everyone in the house!
Benton is getting better at talking lately, he loves to throw out in the floor when he doesn't get his way, he adores sisters, they also fight like animals. He loves his balls, puts his fire hat on as soon as opens his eyes, and constantly has a hammer and wrench. HE IS WILD beyond anything I have ever seen. I know that most people think, "Oh, all boys are WILD." Let me tell you, he is legit. He makes life fun, we are constantly laughing with him around!

Easter 2016
The kids really enjoyed dying eggs this year. Surprisingly, they were very patient and listened to instructions.
We went to the farm for Easter day this year and the kids LOVED playing! Not only were Nana and Granddaddy there, but their cousin Cecelia was there too!
These kids loved the boiled eggs!
Baby girl's first Easter.
