Little Monkey

This little monkey is standing upstairs looking down into the living room. She has officially conquered the stairs. She can crawl all of the way upstairs by herself. We cannot turn our backs or she'll be three stairs ahead of us!

Fun With the Courtneys: Day 4

Our last day with John, Megan, and Cooper was spent at the pool! It was Cooper's first time in a pool, and he seemed to really enjoy it...minus Campbell splashing water the whole time.

I think we have a little fish on our hands with Campbell. She LOVED the water!

We enjoyed our sweet friends SO much!!! We miss them and always enjoy their company. Can't wait to see you soon Courtneys!!!

Fun With the Courtneys: Day 3

Day 3 with the Courtneys was spent riding buggy-cart-bicycle-thingy's in Coronado. It looked like so much fun, but was actually a lot harder to maneuver than expected. We enjoyed lunch at the Hotel Del Coronado and rode the buggy along the beach.

That night we enjoyed a kid-free dinner at a restaurant in PB. Sam and AJ were able to join us and it was so much fun. We had great food and great conversation with great friends!!!

Fun With the Courtneys: Day 2

Day 2 with the Courtneys was spent at the Marine Corp Recruit Depot, otherwise known as the finish line of the Rock-N-Roll Marathon. The main purpose of their trip to San Diego was for John to run the marathon. We were so proud of him!

John with Megan's boss and his wife. They all did GREAT!!!

Fun With the Courtneys: Day 1

Our fun friends, John, Megan, and Cooper Courtney, spent several days in San Diego so we joined in their fun! We have been friends for years and always have a great time when we're together. It was the first official meeting of Cooper and Campbell too, so that made it very exciting! Saturday, we joined them for a yummy lunch in Old Town and then we all headed back to our house to hang out for a bit. This was the first introduction of Campbell and Cooper.

Not really having much to do with each other.

Checking each other out.

Going in for the kiss at the same time!!! Too funny!!!

Megan, Cooper, Me, and Campbell

Date Night & More

Kevin and I don't get very many nights out without Campbell these days, but when we found out the Cubs were in town playing the Padres, we knew we had to make it to a game. Campbell goes to bed sooooo early that we knew she would never make it through the game, so a sweet girl from our church came over to babysit for us. We went to a wonderful mexican restaurant downtown with a patio that looked out at the stadium. It was so nice to enjoy dinner by ourselves.

Yes, this was the view from our seats in the outfield. We got to the game about half way through so we didn't want to get expensive tickets. These seats cost us $15 each.
This is Campbell crawling towards me once she saw I had the camera.
Still coming at me.

Sad face when she doesn't get to play with the camera.

Road Trip

Thursday we left on our first family road trip to the desert. Kevin's territory includes Palm Desert and he needed to visit a hospital there so we decided to tag along and make a little one night vacay out of it. We stayed at a resort that had a great pool with slides, splash park, lazy river, and a sandy beach area. Truth be told, we only spent a total of about one hour at the pool. By the time we were checked in, ate lunch, and got changed, we were only at the pool for a bit before Campbell's nap was calling.

She looks so ornery in this picture! It was H.O.T. so we just took her little outfit off during lunch.

Her new love-Cheerios! She gets absolutely giddy when she sees them!

We had a great dinner and were able to watch the Lakers game. In the background of this picture you can see another little girl sitting in a highchair at the table right next to ours. Campbell and her looked at each other throughout the entire meal! She LOVES other kids.

This fun little photo op was outside of Ben and Jerry's. We couldn't resist taking a turn!

We had planned on spending Friday at the pool until we had to check out. We scratched that plan and headed to a great outlet mall after breakfast. We had a sweet little roadtrip with our little sweetie!!!
