Swimming Lessons

Here are a few pictures from out swimming lessons. Campbell went under the water a few times and did not cry! We continued to work on kicking our legs, reach and pull, and blow bubbles.

Also,Campbell wanted to feed herself her yo baby. What a mess! She is working on using a spoon but would much rather use her fingers.

Lake/Golf


We had a great time at the lake this past weekend. Campbell loved the boat rides! She really liked driving the boat and honking the horn. Mo and Campbell practiced their golf game. On Saturday afternoon, Mo and I went over to Montgomery for Anne's wedding while my mom and dad kept Campbell. It was a lot of fun. She looked gorgeous.

We are off to swimming lessons this afternoon and I am taking my camera so I will post some pictures of them later.

Updating blog for free or close to it!

Well, I am working on my blog. I love all the blogs with the cute backgrounds and headers but did not want to $35 to $50 dollars. I was so excited to learn that you can do it yourself. You will need a little bit of time and patience and you can do it. I found a blog that gave step by step direction on how to do it. Here blog is http://sjhblogdesign.blogspot.com. I actually spent 3.50 to get some of the digital paper because I found some that I really liked.
Also, many people think making their own blog is hard. I promise it is very easy. Just go to www.blogger.com and create an account. If you can upload pictures to your computer and type in word then you can make a blog!!
Start blogging! It's addicting!

Dothan / Masters



Campbell and I went to Dothan for the weekend. We left on Thursday for a weekend of fun. I was helping host a baby shower for Missy. She is having a little boy “Banks” in July. She looks great! The shower was at Kelli's stepmom and dad’s house. It was beautiful. Thanks Kelli! My mom and I also went to the see the play Cinderella on Saturday night while my dad babysat. We went to watch Samuel. He played Prince Charming and did great job. He actually brought me to tears. I cannot believe he is getting so old. I can remember being at the hospital when he was born!!! Campbell had a great time with C and Doc even though she had a bit of a cold.
Mo went to the Masters for the weekend. He had a great time with Size, Jon and Chucky. He said that the house they stayed in was great! The weather turned out great from them both days.
Here are some pictures from the shower. They do not allow camera's at the masters during the tournament so none to post on his end.

Ellison's baptism / weeks events


We started off our week on Sunday with Ellison's baptism. Ellison is the daughter of Anna and Chris Sizemore. She is also my goddaughter!! I am so honored that they asked me to be Ellison's godmother. I cannot express the words what it means to me! I hope that Ellison can come to me at anytime for guidance, love and support. Ellison is wonderful gift from God that we have all prayed for. It was an amazing service at St. Luke’s. After Ellison’s baptism, we went back to the Sizemore’s for a wonderful lunch and fellowship. What a great day! The dress Ellison wore was over 100 years old. She is the 5th generation to wear it!
On Tuesday, Campbell and I went to school. I turned in my letter to my principal asking for one more leave of absence. I am so bless to work in a school system that I can take two years of leave and have job after that time. My principal is so supportive and family oriented. I am also very fortunate and blessed that I have such a wonderful husband that can support us and wants me to stay home with Campbell. There have been many days that I have thought about going back to teaching but I cannot imagine someone else spending all that time with Campbell other than myself. I am thoroughly enjoyed watching Campbell grow up!
On Thursday, Campbell and I started a swimming class called Mommy and Me. There are five moms and babies groups in our class. We worked on kicking their legs, reaching their arms and pulling them back, floating on their backs, blowing bubbles in the water and getting use to the water being all of them. Campbell did not know what to think when I dunked her under the water. She was a bit startled and scared. I might wait to the very end of class next week to do this again. I am glad that we are doing this before the summer gets here so that Campbell will be use to the water. I forgot my camera but promise to get some pictures next week!
