Lassen Park

We went to Lassen National Park the other day. Mt Lassen was a volcano that blew in 1915 I think. Anyway it is a big park with lots of lakes and creeks. Camilla loved being outside and it was prettty cool up there compared to here where its 106 right now. We walked around one of the lakes and it took a while because she kept wanting to stop and pick up every stick or leaf or flower or anything she could pick up. So we were saying "Come on Camilla" ALOT. But it was fun and it was nice to be outside with no smoke and it not being really hot.

Olympics

I LOVE watching the Olympics. I remember as a kid watching the Olympics on a TV in a motel. It was so exciting. I love sports, I wish I was as athletic as I was in High school. But its great to see countiries come together as one to be at the olympics. Good luck to everyone!!!

A big girl bed

We bought Camilla a bed and its so cute! Her crib well umm wasn't really working out. Ok it never worked out. I hate that I even have to write this but she still sleeps with us. I never thought that it would be so hard to get her out of our bed. In the begining it was fine, she was little. I was nursing every 2 hours or so and so it worked really good to have her with us. But now she isn't so little, but she does not want to sleep in her own bed. If shes asleep and I put her in there she will usualy wake up within 2 hours and not go back to sleep till I put her with us. So anyway her new bed is in our room next to our bed, she loves to play on it but still isnt' too excited about sleeping in it. So we are working on getting her out, it takes just as much effort from us as it does for her! Anyway wish us luck, did anyone else have this problem? How did you fix it?

Getting my back adjusted

This is Camillas new fun thing to do! I like her sound effects too!

Sometimes

I really wonder if men are actually human? They say and do things sometimes and I'm just like what? I don't understand it. He needs to get a job so he can get out of my hair. Absence makes the heart grow fonder right? =)

We went to Reno last weekend to see my Moms family. Mom had her birthday last Thursday so we had a party for her at my Granny and Papas. She said that she wanted a hat with netting around it so she could work in her yard without little bugs flying in her nose and eyes so my aunts made her this hat.



Camilla got a new toy from Aunt Mona, its perfect for her! Its a little chair that is attached to a table that has things that make noise. She has been really liking things that are low enough for her to sit on like the bottom of the stairs or Ians guitar case when its laying on the floor. But she didn't have an actual chair her size so she loves this toy! Thanks Aunt Mona!

Landry and Cara and Lila came too so I got to see my cute marshmellowy niece!

so

Well um yeah maybe Ian doesn't have a new job. We really have no idea what is going on. We have tons of work, oh we don't have any work. Why aren't you showing up to work, oh you have been laid off.. Too many chiefs not enough Indians. I am not happy, we totally got our hopes up and now I don't really know what we are going to do. So he is back to job searching, even though there is still a possibility that he has a job with this company. Needless to say I am a big stressed out grumpy pants, who just wants to curl in a ball and go to sleep. Wah wah wah.
