Camille's Birthday


Camille turned eight this month! I can't believe how fast time has gone by. When she was born Ben was days away from graduating with his Bachelors from ASU, we were checking out law schools to attend in the fall, I was teaching part time, and we lived in my grandparent's apartments in Mesa. We were so excited to add a little girl to our family! Camille decided to make her appearance two weeks early- I was dropping Jarom off at my mom's to go to work and hello!- drove to the hospital instead.

Camille was a very good baby. It took her over 15 months to have any hair, but it was worth the wait- everyone quickly fell in love with her sweet smile and her curly hair. She started talking pretty early so I remember always thinking that Camille was older than she really was.

Camille loves everything girly! Camille is a good friend and getting together with friends is one of her favorite things to do. She likes to help her mom, but gets put out that the boys are also around. So she loves special time with her aunts or grandmas. Her favorite things right now are quoting Hannah Montana, having her mom help in her classroom at school, saving and spending money, and writing Aunt Bethany letters. On her birthday Allison came over early in the morning to do her hair, I took Sonic to her and ate lunch with her (without any brothers-thank you Amy), and we all went to her 2nd grade Christmas Program. Camille knew all the songs and had a blast doing the actions to the songs! We had dessert with Grandparents at our house afterwards and sang to her.
