Life is Waiting to Begin

8.02.2010

Oh how I love this little girl and can't believe that 3 years ago she finally came into our life. She is unbelievably independant, smart, silly, creative and wonderful...I just can't imagine what I'd do without her. We had a blast on her birthday and I hope she enjoyed it because it was WAY too much work :) And we aren't doing something like this for at least 10 years. Please remind me about this next year though.

Bowling at Boondocks. To be honest she was way more interested in twirling around with her sucker than rolling the ball. Plus when she did roll it, the ball barely made it half way down the lane! It was awesome :)

The dress we bought her for her birthday. For anyone who doesn't know Cambria has no idea how much she loves dresses and how much of a fight she puts up if she can't wear one. It's actually really obnoxious sometimes, but what do you do? I thought this dress was awesome, and wished there was one in my size.

We had a party at the park next to our house for her and it was so fun and so dang hot! Lots of friends and family came out to celebrate and we SO appreciated every one who came. We had tons of food, played some games and just hung out.

Even Leila got in on the action :) We had a blast but most of all it was a great day to spend with Adam and Cambria and people that we really care about. Happy Birthday my sweet bug, mom and dad love you so much!

The Princess meets a Princess....

And oh my was she excited :) We took her to Disneyland because she's free until she's 3 and Adam and I volunteered to get free tickets. We paid for parking and that's it! So, we weren't really expecting a whole lot out of the trip...maybe a princess in passing and whatever rides weren't ridiculously long. I'd heard horror stories about people waiting in line for hours to see the princesses and as much as I love my daughter, I wasn't about to do that. But we happened to pass by when there was NO LINE at all...we seriously waited 10 minutes and got to see 6 princesses. She was so excited and the whole trip was worth it just to see her face light up when she got to take a picture with Cinderella.

One day we are going to have a talk about making weird faces for the camera, but I guess it works for now. She is so dang silly that it'd be pretty unnatural for her to just smile :)

The Graduate!

This year Cambria and some of her friends did JoySchool...it was awesomely interesting :) We switched going to peoples houses every week and they did activities and may or may not have learned much. I however thought it was awesome to have 2 hours twice a week all to myself! Anyways, they finished their first half and so we had a little graduation party for them....these pictures are awesome because they are so representative of their little personalities.

I seriously have NO ideas where this girl gets her faces and moves from but she is hilarious! I love watching her.

i've been so stinking tired

i've probably been so stinking moody

i'm so grateful

it's worth being sick and tired

i'm crying A LOT more than usual (which is normally a lot anyways)

i'm eating a lot of pretzels

i'm wanting to eat a lot of french fries and salty chips

i haven't cooked dinner in about 2 months

we are so dang EXCITED!

2 down and many more to go! This is from the Salt Lake City half marathon which was on Saturday, and which was so much fun! Mostly because I got to run with my amazing sister. The course was really awesome, except for the last mile or so where we were running on State Street. It was awesome to see all the local people out supporting the runners, plus all the 4,ooo plus runners. It went a lot better than I thought, considering I didn't get to consistently train. My sweet husband and daughter were there cheering me on as well as my mother in law, 2 sister in laws and 1 bro in law. Definately a good one to run :)
