Camille is 9 Months...

Our sweet, precious, adorable baby is NINE MONTHS OLD.  She has been in this world as long as she was in my tummy.  It is so bittersweet.  I'm trying to cherish every single second with this angel, but I find it to be much harder with this third baby than it was with the first 2!  There is little time to just sit and watch our precious girl.  I feel like there is always something that needs to be done, and not enough of me to do it all.  I TRY to make a conscious effort to enjoy every stage she goes through.  There is no way to put into words what our Camille means to our family.  She lights up a room with her smile and sweet laugh!  This has been a HUGE month for our baby girl....lots of updates.






Teeth:  She cut 4 of her top teeth and it was not fun!  She was pitiful!  They are finally in, so she's back to her normal happy self!  6 total.

Tricks:  Camille is crawling.  Honestly, she crawled later than all of my babies, and I was in NO RUSH!  She started crawling just a few days ago.  She, simultaneously, started pulling up on everything and even cruising on our furniture a bit.  Again, I'm in no rush.  I love this sweet stage!

Sleeping:  Sadly, we've regressed a bit in this department.  All good things must come to an end???  With every new stage, sleeping regresses a big.  Now that she can pull up and stand up in her crib, sleeping isn't going as smoothly.  We still put her in her crib awake, but she normally puts up a pretty big fight.  She eventually goes to sleep after a few minutes.  I can't complain.  She sometimes goes to bed around 5:45 and wakes up a couple of times to eat.  She would probably sleep later, but her precious adorable brother wakes EVERYONE in the house up....very early.  Naps are tricky.  It seems that we are always on the go with the 2 big kids, which makes solid naps for Camille hard to come by.  When they are gone, she'll take 2 naps a day.

Eating:  We have literally just started solids like a week ago.  I guess I'm not ready for my baby to be grown.  She has tried puffs, tomatoes, broccoli, bananas, chicken, mushrooms, yogurt, avocado, strawberries, oranges and grapes.  She LOVES bananas, broccoli, and tomatoes.  She does not like grapes or oranges.

Size:  I am not sure about how much she weighs, we go to the doctor next week, and I will update her stats then.  She is mainly in size 6-9 month clothes.  She wears size 3 diapers.

End of Preschool, 2015-2016

Sadly for the ENTIRE Burnette family, preschool is over.  Not only are the babies sad, but so is mommy!  Haisley had a WONDERFUL year with Mrs. Carmello/Matz, and Benton had fun with Mrs. Jones/Hackett.  We are so proud of how these 2 have grown and learned over the past year!!






Haisley's Spring Spectacular

A couple of weeks ago, Haisley had her Spring Spectacular at gymnastics.  To say that she enjoyed the year of gymnastics would be a lie.  She hated it and begged not to go EVERY. SINGLE. WEEK.  However, she was thrilled to show us, Nana, Granddaddy, JJ, and the Simpson clan all that she had learned.  She did forward rolls, walked on a balance beam, and basically jumped around all over the place.  We are so proud of her for sticking with it, even though she didn't enjoy it.  On to ballet....

Muffins with Mommy

My sweet angels had a muffins with mom at preschool.   Haisley and Benton were so proud to show me the crafts that they made for me!   I love my sweet angel bugs!  I have learned so much about being a mommy....mainly to never say "my kids will never do that" and to be very humble and not judgemental toward other mommas!

We are so thankful for the sweet preschool experience that our babies have had this year. Both of our babies LOVE going to school and both LOVE doing arts and crafts!   We so enjoyed looking at the art they created.  They were so proud!   Daddy got to come too!

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.
