The Farm

Sunday was Cameron's little buddy, Bella's party for her 3rd birthday! They had the party at Sunflower Farms in Longmont. All I have to say is IT WAS AWESOME! I am seriously in love with this place. We are definitely going back. They had everything you could imagine and Cameron and Sydney loved it all. Rather than type myself to death, I'm just going to let these pictures do the talking...

















And last but not least, Cameron with the birthday girl. This was at the end of the party so they were both pretty tired!

Stylin'

Miss Sydney has been sporting her pink chucks recently! Look at this stylin' kid.





She's pretty darn cute if you ask me!

Side note: While I was taking these pictures of Sydney, Cameron had a little "active twos" episode. She was throwing a fit because she didn't want to get  dressed, so I left her inside and told her she needed to pick an outfit to wear before she came outside. Well, not only did she decided she wasn't going to put any cloths on, but she also decided she didn't want to wear her diaper either. So the next thing I knew she was running outside completely naked!! AHHHHH. I was trying not to laugh as I told her that we have to wear our clothes while we were outside. She was so mad at me. I did get a picture of the shenanigans, however it is not "blog appropriate" so I couldnt' post it for you all to see. Our poor neighbors. I can just imagine them sitting by their windows going, "Oh that poor lady, she has completely lost control of her kids." HA oh well, that's just the way we roll sometimes.

Adventures w/ Friends

We are so blessed to have wonderful neighbors! Every single day before Cameron goes to bed she tells me, "Mommy, I thankful for all my friends, for Bella, and Ian, and Riley!" Those are her three little buddies that live in our neighborhood. Anyway, last weekend we went to Nederland on a little outing with Cameron's friend Bella and her family. Bella's mommy grew up in Nederland, so they know the ropes up there. It was so much fun.

This was Sydney cruising around while we were getting ready to leave. Silly kid.



As we were driving around in town we got to see the leaves changing on the aspen trees, so beautiful!


Then we went on a short hike. The girls did great, although Cameron and Bella got a little tired of walking towards the end so we ended up carrying them part of the way.


Seriously look at these two. What little hams. They are seriously two little peas in a pod.


Cameron was beyond excited when Meagan (Bella's mommy) said she could help walk the dogs. (Daddy, I think you're going to have to buy this little one a puppy one of these days!)


And of course we had to examine a number of rocks, sticks and pine cones along the way.


Our adventures were far from over when we finished up with our hike. The next stop, The Carousel of Happiness! Don't be fooled by the somber face, Cameron was ecstatic for the ride. "I go round and round on the maryround Mommy!"


Sydney was thrilled too. Look a that face! Too funny.




Cameron had so much fun she convinced us to let her go a second time. So her and Daddy went for round two while Sydney and I waived from the side.


We were all starving when we finished up with the carousel, so we headed across the parking lot for some pizza and then hit up the candy/ice cream shop for a little treat.


After that we headed home. We were all exhausted! Thanks Meagan, Bella and Gabby for such a fun day! We love you guys!

Girl Time w/ Finley

Last week Finley got to come and hang out with us for a couple days. It was so much fun! We missed Cole bunches, but we had some quality girl time. We played with toys, played outside, went to the park and met some of Cameron and Sydney's friends.

It was pretty funny because Finely was really quite the whole time she was at our house (which from what Annie tells me isn't complete normal for her). I just think she was in awe of Cameron and Sydney, mostly because they are SO LOUD!

These three are TROUBLE!


Miss Finley, you're such a little ham!


This attempt at getting the three of them to sit on the couch together was a fail!


When did Cameron get old enough for fake smiles??


This photo needs a little background. We have officially entered the "Active Twos" phase of Cameron's life. And when I say that I mean EVERYTHING is a challenge with her these days. The other morning, getting dressed was a challenge. I finally decided it wasn't worth the fight and let her pick her own outfit. This is what we got... nice! HAHA




So serious Cameron, geeze!  



 Finely loved this little stroller!



Oh my goodness, what have I done to my children?? #iPhoneandiPadObsessed 



3-D Chalk? Yes Please!



These are Cameron's two best little buddies, Ian and Bella.  





One afternoon after naps, Sydney had her heart set on having Finley's pacifiers. She had no interest in her pacifiers, she wanted Finley's. I was cracking up at her mischievousness, so I had to take a video. Look at Sydney's face about a minute in, what a little stinker! Poor Miss Finley.



I'm not going to lie, it was a little tricky having all three girls by myself, but for the most part the girls did great. We only had a few of these moments...



And when we did they were from my kids...go figure!

Thanks for coming to visit us Finley! We miss you already. :)
