A Show
Periodically, the boys will grab instruments, turn out the lights, and put on a 'show' for us on the fireplace. Guess who wanted to join the show last night? Pierce's outfit is a 2T-3T halloween costume I found in their closet last night and Holt chose a gun as a musical instrument, go figure. And can you see Camden's mullet from the side? My mom tells me I could trim it but she's finally getting hair and she's a girl, eventually her hair will come in in the front :)

Preschool
Holt started preschool last week. He has one of the teachers Pierce had at his age who I love and lots of fun friends in his class. He is very much into his book bag and asked me for a folder since Pierce brings his notebook home from school every day. Pierce school does colors for behavior as preschool does so Holt is excited about this too this year as I think it makes him feel like a big boy.
Cute story, when Pierce was little Jason told him to call his 'privates' his manhood (not sure why?) so now Holt has learned the concept of manhood. The other day they were all bathing together and Holt said, "Look, Camden is missing a piece of her manhood."
16 months going on 5 years old
I can climb out of my crib, pack and play, etc. Mommy bought me a tent. She thought these were a crazy idea but not after she saw me literally head dive out of the crib.
I like to sit at the stools with my brothers at the kitchen and scream if mommy puts me in my booster seat. I will not eat at my booster seat any more, but if mommy or daddy let me out I will eat out of a big chair.
I like to play with mommys iphone and phone and scream at top of my lungs if she takes it away.
I like to try to play the WII, the leapster, Pierce's camera, Pierces computer and the real computer.
I will not let mommy put a bow in my hair even though I finally have just enough hair to hang onto a small bow. Mommy did get my hair in a pony tail and this doesn't bother me quite as much as the bows.
I do not, I will , not I can not ride in the car without screaming, I can even scream for 2 hours straight, yes at the top of my lungs.
I stopped sucking my fingers after I took a spill and hurt them pretty bad. The first several days I would cry for a long time when I went down and then I would wake up at 4:30 and not go back down. One day I got up at 4:30 and didn't take a nap until 3 pm that day. Every day I cry a little less and even though my fingers are all better I have not put them back in. This should be a good thing because mommy won't have to break this habit later on, but it makes mommy a little sad because those fingers have been in my mouth since I was a baby and helped sooth me when I was fussy.
I LOVE the pat the bunny book, the animal book, and the books that make sounds. I can make lots of animal sounds. Mommy thinks maybe I’m smart and that’s how I can be sooooo manipulative.
So this is a little update on our baby girl. Oh we do love her so much but she is giving us on a run for it lately. I don't know if we forgot how hard this stage is or if she is just really hard. My perception of little girls has definitely changed. I think when you have all boys you think that little girls really just sit on the floor and play quietly all day. Not Camden, she climbs more than her brothers ever did and she's just a bit strong willed. Her favorite places to play lately are in the toilet, yes hands or head in, and in the cat's litter box. She keeps us busy but makes us laugh a lot and brings us more joy than tears :) and steals our hearts in every way possible.
My pony tail!
When I was taking this picture on the beach, I had the thought that I definitely look like a mom who had two boys first. I put these sunglasses on up at the house, thinking she would never wear them, but she loved them, I think they probably really are for 5 year olds as big as they are.
