Christmas Mini Session

I came across a fantastic deal on fb that a local photographer was doing for one day!  I jump on it and thought it would be a cheap way to get some family pics done:)  Cody ended up having a last minute hunt booked so it turned into a mini session for Jones and I got one pic with him.  I think they turned out adorable!

He was a little ham.  We were her last clients for the day and she said Jones was the only one that was feeling the camera, ha!

He loved the fake snow!  He kept wanting to do it over and over and over....and she let him:)

Here is a sneak peek at his birthday pics I took.....a few days late:/

Thanksgiving in OK!

 We were so excited it didn't work out for us to drive in for Thanksgiving, plus get to see family!  WIN/WIN!  Jones got horribly sick the day before my parents were to come in.  I thought it was RSV and so did the Dr but the test came back negative..............He ran 103 + temp for the first 3 days, and he sounded like he smoked a pack a day, and he was wheezing and just plain pitiful.  IT was so sad, and I had never seen him that sick before.

We ended up having a mini party for him.  He puckered up long enough to blow out the candles, make out with a piece of cake and sit on his new toy!  Then he crashed:(

He loved his new John Deer.  It has just been to cold to take it outside thought:(  It goes SOOOO fast and he is going to break something in the house soon!

He was so excited about his big boy bed, because it meant his Uncle Josh would be sleeping with him.  Since he was SO sick he stayed in our room, so we could keep an eye on him.  He kept coughing and getting choked and just throwing up:/

We had plenty of folks here to love on our boy and to try to make him feel just a little bit better......

After 13 days of blahness, he is back to his regular self!

3 Year Old Questions

A few years ago, before kids, I came across a neato blog!  Every year on her kids birthday's, starting at age 3, she asked them questions.  They would answer them, then she would put it in their baby book.  I decided to ask Jones these questions and his response was hilarious!  He was confused the first couple of questions then asked, "what's next, momm, what's next!!"  He wanted more questions when they were over, ha!

Early Christmas at the Campbell's

I have NEVER and I mean NEVER I have I EVER put up a Christmas tree in November.  Before kiddo I think I only put a tree up once.  That was only because I was watching a couple of kiddos at the time and thought they would enjoy it.  Well I am all about the tree now.  I just couldn't wait any longer, so me and Jones put them up a week before Thanksgiving.  Yes, I said them!  I have one in Jones' room and one in the living room.  I loved them both so much and was a little jealous that I had to go get one for mine and Cody's room! Jones loves them as much as I do!

Since I have put the lights up early, every day seems like Christmas.  It's a warm, ooey, gooey feeling in our house right now and I am in Christmas Heaven!

We also decided to change Jones' bed into his big boy bed and do away with his toddler bed, well, transform his toddler bed into a big boy bed.  It was a pain in the "you know what."  We will have Cody's parents down, brother and girlfriend and my dad and step mom down for Thanksgiving so now we will have an extra bed!

I do not want to relive that day.  Cody was annoyed beyond belief for the rest of the day after messing with that bed and we stayed clear of him:)  Jones loves it!

It has been super super cold here lately too.  I am loving the fire place this year.  We have lived here for almost 5 years and last year was the first year we used the fire place, and we only used it because we got 3 ft of snow, it was 5 degrees and we had no electricity for 2 days!  It was so clean and I didn't want to get it dirty, but after having to use it............I say use away!!!!!!!!
