Gardening

Camrie was being really fussy the other day so we went out side in the yard. That always seems to make her happy. I decided to let her play on the grass while I worked in the garden pulling weeds and watering everything. Camrie decided that she wanted to help with the gardening so she crawled over to the dirt. At first she was just laying mostly in some morning glory weeds digging in the dirt so I thought ok that's fine, she is not getting that dirty and she is happy I'll let her just help pull the weeds. She also helped herself to a snack of dirt.But that soon was not enough she wanted to help water and make sure the plants had some good trenches around them and she looked so cute I couldn't help but run in and grab my camera. At that point I didn't care what happened to her cloths which happened to still be her PJ's that she had on. She was digging in the mud and drinking out of the hose all on her own I didn't even show her how to do it. She just grabbed the hose and started playing with it.Then she decided to even give herself a bath. She crawled into one of the trenches that had water running down. She is so helpful.This is the damage she did.Then the real bath came.

Camrie Loves her food

This was Camrie's first time having watermelon on a rind. She was a little nervous but she soon got into it and cried when I took the rind away.We fed Camrie some sweet potatoes and as we were cleaning up she reached over and grabbed the container with the rest of the sweet potatoes in it. They were COLD because we only heated up what we fed her. She held the container with her feet and then started chowing down on the sweet potatoes. She ate the whole thing and we just sat there and vedio taped her doing it. Oh a side note. the stars on her head are from primary. She was in there with me and the kids put stars on her head.

4th of July

For the 4th of July Cam had to work at the Stadium of Fire. He ran one of the camera's right in the middle of the field.
Camrie got this way cute 4th of July dress from Catherine, She works with Nicole. I was so excited because I hadn't got her one and decided that I wasn't going to because at the time we weren't going to be doing anything because Cam was going to be working. So Thanks Catherine for the way cute dress and everything else you have been so nice to give us.
Me and Camrie hung out with Cam in the morning before he had to leave and then we went up to Layton to hang out with Kanien and Marcella and Kanien's family. We planed on going to the surf and swim but then it got really windy and we decided not to go. We had ribs and some good salads. Marcella help feed Camrie.
We went over to Cam's parents house to watch the fire works with a bunch of other people. You can see the fireworks from the DATC at their house and hear the music that they play. You can also see like 2 or 3 other firework shows. Camrie was a trooper and stayed up the whole time. I think she was more interested in the glow sticks that we had then the fireworks. At the end of the night I did get some picture of her watching the fireworks that the neighbors were letting off. Her face was so funny.

Family Reunion

The Jacobson reunion was the 27th - 29th up by Logan. It was a ton of fun. The theme this year was survivor. Because they have survived 30 years of reunions. They used a bunch of reality shows for the things that we did. The first night there was a Hell's Kitchen Chili cook off. We played deal or No deal and the winners got hats. Saturday we started off with The morning show with Kib and Leisa which was breakfast. Kib always makes sourdough pancakes, which are delicious. Unfortunately Leisa didn't sleep well Friday night so she took advantage of an empty cabin and slept in. We had The Amazing Race Bill & Liz Edition where we had to do challenges that represented things about Bill and Liz. Bill and Liz are Kib's aunt and uncle. Some of the things that we had to do were: Eat a HUGE steak with a BIG bowl of COLD!!!! mashed potatoes, a pan of brownies and a stack of hoho's and a plate of chocolate candy. It was so sick and not worth the calories. We dressed up in church cloths and read a chapter in the scriptures. We casted a fishing rod. Searched for money. Bowled. Golfed and had a relay that we had to be dressed in swim attire (flippers, swim cap, and goggles). I'm happy to say that the team I was on won. Cam went golfing with his dad and some cousins while this was happening. The next thing was fear factor. We had gone to Logan to have Juniper take out for lunch and missed this, but it sounded fun. After Lunch we went swimming and Cam, Nate and Kib met us there. It was packed but fun. That night we did so you think you can dance, like a Jacobson. This was funny. We all laughed our heads off. They gave each family a CD with a song on it and you had to come up with a dance. Our song was some rap song. It was short so we just shook some booty till it was over. Sunday we had Family Feud, which was the reunion business meeting where they talk about the next reunion. So we are in charge next year and it makes me nervous to find some way to top this year. I know that Nicole and Leisa are killer at planing things so I'm sure that they will figure out something great. This was Camrie's first time sleeping in a tent and she did great. She slept better then anyone I think. So once again I was bad about getting pictures and only have this one of the first night just before Camrie went to bed. If you want to see others Nicole has some posted and I'm going to try and get some others from cousins that were there taking pictures.

10 months old

Camrie is now 10 months old and boy is she getting big. When we went to her appointment on the 26th of June she was 25 7/8'' long and she weighed 15 lbs 9 oz. She is back on the growth chart. She has done so much this past month. She got her first tooth on the 10th and then her 2nd one on the 30th. She was so good when she was teething that I had no idea that she was getting a tooth until it was already out. She mastered army crawling. She is everywhere now. She started swim lessons on the 23rd and now will go under water without crying when she comes up. We went hiking with my mom and sister Laurie and two cousins Brit and Kenzie. Camrie was a trooper. We put her in a front pack and she just hung out the whole time. It turned out to be a longer hike then we thought because we hiked an hour in the wrong direction. She got a little fussy at the end but other then that she was great. Cam, Camrie and I walked around temple square with Cam's parents and Grandma Donna. We got some fun pictures of her and she played in the water from the little reflecting pond.
