Camping

Keeper has had one free weekend in the past few months and for the next few months also. We decided that although we should be social in the ward and invite friends over, we didn't. We went camping instead. It was so worth it too! Our lives get so busy and it seems like there are always more things to do than we actually have time for. We were able to step back and focus on the thing that really matters: our little family.
It was pretty cool out so there was no swimming this time, although Camy tried her hardest to dive in on a few occations. The weather was perfect and the quality time with the kids, no TV, no computer, just us and them, was well worth the time.
Sorry there are a lot of pictures.




Probably the furthest any of Camy's rocks went!








The only picture I was in. Not the best but oh well.

Gotta love the dirty face! She's still cute though.


Showing the muscles it takes to set up the tent. They LOVED the tent!



Mouth full, dirty face, but having a blast! She loves her daddy!

Camy was excited for the smores. I love her face!

We forgot a few things but made do with what we had. We forgot a spatula for the pancakes we were having for breakfast. We did remember some shovels for the kids so after washing it off that was our solution and it worked...very well!

Tubes

Last Wednesday came and went without a glitch. We were scheduled for Camy to get Tubes at 11:30am and she was perfect. Camy liked being with just me at the hospital and managed to be her happy self although she was starving. She liked all the attention that she got from the nurses and even got a sticker for saying thank you. She thought she was so cool.
They took her back and it was hard on me but not as hard as Carson's had been. Carson was crying and calling out for me. Camy reached for me but the nurse just said bye and walked through the door. I didn't hear her cry but she might have. I was in the waiting room for about 5 minutes when the doctor came out and got me. He said everything went as smootly as possible and that I would be able to see her in a few minutes.
When they called me back she was relieved to see me but was so limp. I was able to hold her and cuddle her which was fun. The only thing they had for her to drink out of was one of the bottles they give newborns and she was already drinking it when I got back there. She thought it was weird but once it was filled with juice she wouldn't give it up. She downed a ton of juice and was ready to go home in about an hour.
Camy was back to her normal self within the next hour and played like normal. Now it looks like she is getting her first year molars and is as cranky as can be. If it isn't one thing it's another.
I am so thankful that things went so smoothly with my baby. She is such a doll and I hate to see her in pain.
Here is the only picture I have of her because I was holding her and it was hard to manage her and the camera.
