Dress Ups are never dull

One of Alis continued favorite things to do is Dress up with her cousins. They love going through all my clothes and pretending to be different people. I love seeing their creativity kick in.

Ali went from being all dolled up to being her "biker dad!" It was hilarious. Last year she dressed up in his work outfit, but this was just as good when she came out saying, "hey dude, whats up?' She of course had us all laughing as biker dad.

Two biker thumbs way up!!! Ali your so funny and always have us laughing!!

Cutest Dad

I have come to realize that I don't blog about my cute husband nearly enough. I constantly have plenty to say about my kids because they change constantly, but i have failed miserably to write about my husband and what a GREAT dad he is. The other day I was busy doing things in the house when I realized it was awfully quiet. I looked around for Cam, and Ali and couldn't find them. I started looking everywhere when I came across this adorable picture.

He had taken them outside and was sitting under the tramp talking with them and enjoying the day. He spends so much time with our kids it amazes me. He works a ton, but it is amazing how any second he can squeeze in with our kids he does. He is a great dad and does anything and everything for them, and teaches them new things constantly. Ali is always telling me something about a car, or bike or the way something works and I know her dad has been teaching her.

He wants them to do and be so many great things, and I love how he tells them, and points out all the many things he didn't have as a kid, so they learn to appreciate things. He makes them work for things, and spoils them all at the same time. He always shows so much amazement at things they do, and he is so good to stop anything he is doing to give them attention. He has so much love for them I love seeing it in his smile. I love you fro and you are an amazing dad!!

Catching Up with Cam

Cam is in this phase of biking when he wants to do everything that he sees his dad do. So when he watched fro do a wheelie he wanted to really bad also. So his version of a wheelie is lifting the front end of his bike up and saying "look a 4 wheeler!" It is so dang cute. This particular day he was wearing his dads gloves and PINK socks! gotta love him.

Cam loves skateboards, motorcycles and pretty much anything with wheels. He has really been into skateboards and keeps saying he is going to have a skateboard birthday party. Uncle Mike has had this mini skateboard for a long time and gave it to Cam. It made his whole day and he would not part with it-- Even to sleep. He had to sleep with his cool skateboard!!

Another of Cams favorites right now is the movie TRON. He LOVES it. After renting it from REdbox over 4 times we decided to buy it. He loves Sam Flynn and has now started calling him self Sam Flynn. He pretends the frisbee is a disc and holds it to his back and then throws it like in the movie. He has named us all from the movie: Fro is Tron who "fights for the USERS!", Ali is Cora but cam calls her CORLA, I am -"the white girl who zaps off Sam Flynns clothes- Jem" he just yells hey white girl. It is HILARIOUS watching him.

Cam is always making funny faces, doing funny things, and sneaking out the back door to ring the "DING BELL" in the front to suprise us. He hates for us to see him when he wakes up from a nap before he has suprised us, and he loves ME!! He tells me all the time "MOM I JUST LOVE YOU!" like he is right now while sitting on my lap~~ love my Cam a BAM~

Schools Out!

 

I have not had a chance to post that Ali officially finished 2nd Grade!! She had a wonderful teacher at North Point Elementary named Miss Baker that she really liked. She finished the year off with a cowgirl dance and had to get pictures with all the GIRLS in her class. She didn't want any with the boys!! That might happen in 3rd or maybe 5th grade!! I hope she has good friends next year and she will continue loving school.
