My Gal Pal

I really enjoy my time with Camille when the boys are at school.  She is typically quite easy going and fun, and we do all sorts of things together.

Making messy crafts or doing messy sensory projects is a favorite activity.  We made pink glitter goop one day - super fun!


We also made purple cloud dough



Camille also enjoys gymnastics!  We have done Gymboree for many months, though I decided to recently finish up so she has time for dance and (hopefully soon!) regular gymnastics.  They always have a theme and it was fire trucks on the day I took this picture.  She loved it!


Camille also loves a good playground.  She will just play and play, unlike her brothers at her age, who liked to pick in the dirt more :). We really enjoy the airport playground!







Finally, a major new activity in Camille's life is dance class!  She really loves it, gets all excited every time we go, adores her teacher, and is such a great listener in class!  Thank you Nana and Papa for sending her to dance class!

This was her before her first class!

And a very blurry one of her dancing with her teacher




I just love hanging out with that girl :)

A Hike with the G Man

Grady and Mama both love to hike, so sometimes we sneak off and fit in a hike, just the two of us.  Recently we headed to Paris Mountain and hiked about 4 miles on trails we had never done before.  It was tough but lots of fun too.  We saw so many creatures, plants, and mushrooms!

A beautiful orange mushroom


A cool red salamander


A large lizard


We hiked up to ruins where the fire marshall used to stay


It was a fun morning and great exercise!

Fabulous Camille

Camille has such personality and does the cutest things.  I just had to post some of her singing and dancing around the playroom





She also LOVES to thread beads of any type.  She was very proud that she did every wooden bead we had!



Her buddies Anson and Grady joined her that afternoon to make pizza!



She's such a little beauty!
