Peaced Together: Happy 1 month Camilla!!!

Well, I think we have easily adjusted from a family of 3 to a family of 4! Jude absolutely adores his sister and kisses her every chance he gets. He already gets worried when she cries and when new visitors come and hold her (he's afraid they are going to take his Milla). lol. I can't believe how much she is growing already....actually who am I kidding? I believe it....it goes so quickly...my brother keeps saying "before you know it, they'll be moving out". Oh, I hope it doesn't go that fast. I mean there are days when Jude is acting crazy (because he is 2 going on 3), and I wish he was moving out. No, not really....as parents, we all have those days, but I wouldn't trade those crazy days for the days of not having them around. They have filled our lives with so much joy. I can't remember how boring it must have been without them.....at least now when I clean, I have something to really clean up (trains, cars, etc). haha (for those of you that know me and my obsessive compulsive ways). lol. We are in the process of moving things around the house and trying to get ready to convert our computer room into a room for Jude. Needless to say, I have been a crazy woman....Aaron says I'm in my post nesting phase. Haha. Well, I am trying to give you a small dose (131 pictures...go figure...remember, I said small) of what our month has been like. I will spare you the other 500 pictures....lol. Honestly, I picked my favs, but I could have a blog post of simply all the people that have visited. So to those of you that have come to visit...thank you. Maybe I will get to post all those pictures another night. Blessings to you all....and thank you for letting me share these kiddos with you!

First bonding moments :)

Jude showing off for our company!

August 24th...Camilla gets baptized! Also a special day because it's her pappy's birthday too!!

Her Godparents....Sarah and Ryan Gaffney

Then I took my hand at some newborn photos....I figured I could tackle it. I was pretty excited with how some of them turned out. I had a very cooperative subject :)

More bonding time with Uncle J...

Bright eyed on her first Labor Day!

Speaking of visitors, I have to post a few pictures of our dear friends and Jude's Godparents who came to visit the weekend of Labor Day....what a joy to see them after two years. Their kids have really grown too!

Just have to sneak a kiss in :)

So, the next visitors that came in were my best friend, Holly, her kids and her mom...oh and they messaged my mom and brought her in too!! All the way from Lancaster just simply to visit and bring a beautiful picnic lunch...it was a fabulous few hours!!

It's a rough life....

Jude and Maya playing around....

One beautiful girl...

Someone got a little sticky from the tree!

Just a few "selfies"...lol

So besides being busy with a new baby, I had to get my stuff ready for Sandyvale wine festival this past Saturday. I did really well, and had a great time! I am glad it's over and I still have lots left which will get me started for the holiday season which is great!!

Happy one month Camilla (or Milla as we all call you..haha)!!!

We also finally convinced Father A to hold her...he wasn't too keen, but honestly what's not to love about these pics...especially how Camilla is looking at Jude....
