Cameron and Kennedy's Birthday Bash

I may of went all out with the green and pink theme. But, I was pretty pleased how it turned out. This was the main table with pink and green candy for the guests to tale home in little to go boxes.

I also put pictures on it of them.

Staci also brought some cute things form her home to help spruce it up. Thanks!

Here is the food table. We had soups and bread.

I was pretty proud of my attempt to make nice cakes. Plus they were very yummy.

The presents table, two very spoiled children.

Cameron with his cute hat I made.

Kennedy in her hat. She only wore it for a second. Poor girl didn't feel very well, but she was still cute as could be.

The kids got such great gifts.

Kennedy stole the show with the clothes. She wanted to put all of them on. She loves clothes and talking on her knew cell phone.

Had to document his first glove and ball.

So excited about her knew coat.

Caeron right before he blew out his candle.

She was pretty excited for her cake. I think she liked everyone watching her.

It tasted pretty good too. Thanks again to everyone who came, we sure love our family. What big kids.

Kennedy is One

Where did the time go? She is already one. We just love our Kennedy. She is little Miss determined. She knows what she wants and you can't stop her. She is a lot more advenourous than Cameron ever was. She has no fear. I am constantly chasing her from climbing off the couch, chairs, and tables. She doesn't really play with toys as much as she climbs on them. She says a few words, but nothing on command. When you ask her to say something she looks at you as if she doesn't want to say that. She will give you five and blow a kiss (well she puts her hand over her mouth). She is usually very pleasant, a messy eater, and copies whatever cameron does. Some of the things she say:
Mom, dad, up, meow (cat), cam, bike, nana, on, off, and out.
her favorites: climbing on the little table, coffee table, chairs, aand couch.
pushing the vacuum, ans stroller (although she takes the baby out and tries to fit in the stroller.
pullling toys out and sitting in boxes, even when she clearly can't fit. Opening and pulling things out of all drawers.
Jumping in crib with Cameron and stuffed animals.
Trying to eat with a spoon.
Trying to color like brother.
Climbing up on the tool box to play with work bench drill, saw, and screw driver.
Kennedy is just the cutest little girl, she is always smiling and making us laugh. We love you!!

Cameron's Green Party

We got him a bike for his birthday. He had a hard time at first, but he has really gotten a hang of it now. It will be awesome when it is warm enough to go outside besides once every other week. He has gotten pretty good at riding it inside. We make a little path from the living room to his room and back and forth.

So, if you didn't already know green is Cam's favorite so we thought we would have a green birthday party. He was all about having a friend party, so we got the church and had some of the neighborhood kids come. It was a lot of fun!!

I thought it turned out pretty cute. I loved all the kids in the party hats. They were all asked to wear green. We had capri suns and mint in chip ice cream.

The best part was running around kicking green balloons.

Cameron was all about it!

We played a few games. Cameron, Kennedy, and I had been practicing all week. We played hot potato, musical chairs, and their favorite freeze dance. Oh, and red light green light at the end.

He had quite few friends come, it was a killer party!

Cameron's Third Birthday

He is just getting so big. We look at him and think were has the time gone. Cameron pretty much rules our lives. He has lots to say and lots of ideas. He is into lots of things right now but some of his favorites:
of course trains
the color green
tools/Handy Manny/cranes/cars/trucks
puzzles
playing outside
toy story
robin hood
Little Einsteins
going places/anywhere really
playing with friends
preschool
animals
Cameron loves to have people over and tell them about what he has been doing. He loves giving Kennedy kisses. He is always telling Kennedy, "no, Ken" when she comes near his toys, but he loves having her around. They giggle and play together. They are especially crazy in the bathtub. We are always laughing at the things Cameron comes up with. Actually is one of his favorite words. Anyway, we couldn't ask for a better boy (most of the time). He is so sweet and always wants to please others. We love you Cameron!

Temple Square

We went to Temple Square with the Baldwin's. It was crowded and the kids didn't last very long, but it was so good to see them. I think we had more fun at the house just hanging out. We'll plan on it again for next year.

Snowmobiling Experience

So, it was way last minute. But, we went snowmobiling with our friends the Schmidts. They have made it so the one can carry kids, so the three littlest were inside and Cameron and Abbey rode on the mobiles. Well we kind of chose the coldest day ever. Most things that could go wrong did, the one ran out of gas, the other one overheated, it got dark and we had to go home in the dark, but the worst part was Jon spent the night in the ER for carbon monoxide poisoning. We still had a good time. Thanks for the invite.

Christmas

I don't know who was more excited for Christmas this year, us or the kids. It was really fun to have Cameron be so into it this year. He had been gearing up for it all month. As if we hadn't already been spoiled enough, Christmas was once again present over load. It was mess everywhere, but a ton of fun. It was great having my whole family there. Merry Christmas!!!

By the tree with all the tons of presents.

Before they came out.

Miley loving it!

Staci also enjoying Miley's new present.

Christmas afternoon we headed over to the church for the big Rollins get together. We had another delicious meal, played and practiced for the talent show. Most of the girls did this pretty awesome synchronize swimming routine with the help of Ryan and Jennifer. We didn't get many pictures.

Here is Kenny and Lola

My dad also performed a bread song on his guitar. It was very good. Lots of other good talent. We had a lot of fun.
