Visit from the Rogers

Our good friends, Chris, Cassidy, and Caeleigh Rogers, came to visit this weekend. Rogers (Chris) was Russ's best man and they have been close friends of ours since about the time we started dating. Caeleigh was born in January and this was our first time to meet her. What a doll! We had a great time of hanging out and catching up.

6 month-old Caeleigh was VERY interested in getting her hands on Campbell.

I snapped a few pictures of Caeleigh for her mommy and daddy.

Campbell's Yamy

Campbell has a wonderful Aunt Amy (or Yamy), her mommy's big sister. Yamy is so in love with Campbell and she feels the same way about her!

Here are a few of their moments.

Smiley!

We have had the most difficult time capturing that sweet smile on camera.

We finally got a great one!

Mobile

Campbell is a big fan of ceiling fans. She could watch the fan all day. She smiles at it and talks to it. She does not, however, have one in her room because she has a chandelier. She looks at it some, but is not so interested, as it does not "do" anything movement-wise. She has not had a mobile either, because I could never find one that I liked enough to put in her beautiful room (I have really good priorities as a parent, don't I?). Thanks to a fabulous idea and some supplies from her MiMi and GiGi, I created this one for her yesterday.

As you can see, she loves it.

She did it!

Campbell has been a very good sleeper for about the past month and a half, but we have still been getting up once a night. She kept gradually getting later (3:30, 4:00, 4:30). The past week she has gotten up at 5:30 every night (goes to bed between 9 and 9:30). We loved the new amount of sleep, but it made it difficult for me to feed her at 6:30 the days I go to work. Yesterday night she slept from 9:30-6:30 and last night from 9:30-7:00!

We thought this day would never come!!

Here's the smiley girl this morning.


In other "she did it" news, Aunt Nik graduates with her Master's in Counseling today from University of Mary Hardin-Baylor. This is a long, fairly difficult program (I know) and not only did she get through it, she did it while commuting an hour to school and having a baby in the middle of all of it. We are so proud of her!
