Holidays

To start off we had Thanksgiving with the Jacobson's. We went to a church in Ogden and spent the dinner part with all the Jacobson's, at least the ones that could make it there. The food was great and so was the company. After dinner we put the food and all the tables away and played games. I was lame and only took a few pictures of Camrie playing with a football the size of herself. I'm not very good about getting pictures. Then we spent the evening eating more pies with some of the Goaslind's. It was lots of fun chatting with family (sorry no pictures of that).

Then to start off Dec we had birthdays. Nicole's on the 3rd and Kib's on the 12th. We got together with them and had dinner at Tucanos in Salt Lake on the 5th. Camrie turned 15 months old and had her very first sleep over with Grandma and Grandpa Jacobson. It was weird being away from her for a whole night and day but good also. That was the longest I have been away from her since she was born. That Sunday we gave Nicole and Kib there birthday gifts.

Now on to Christmas

We did a "Christmas Eve" with the Jacobson's the Monday before Christmas. We had a nice dinner and then we read the Christmas story and sang some songs. After that we went to Madison's grave and put a birthday/Christmas tree on it and cleared a path. Then we put a wreath on Cam's Grandpa Earl's grave and cleared a path.We spent Christmas Eve with my family. We meet up with them around 5 and went to Texas Roadhouse for dinner. Then we went home and Camrie opened her Christmas PJ's that she wore to my Grandma Webb's. My Grandma always has family come over and we exchange gifts on Christmas Eve. We visited and headed home so that Santa could come to our house.

Camrie had fun opening hers and others presents the whole day.

We did our own little family thing in the morning and then headed to Kaysville and spent time with Cam's family.

Next we dropped off Camrie at my parent's house with my Dad and met the rest of the family at the movies to see Bedtime Stories. We went back to my parents and played games and hung out just long enough for the storm to get bad for our drive home.
The day after Christmas Camrie found out that the Santa that she got was chocolate and she could eat it.

On the 29th we took Camrie to see the lights at Temple Square for the first time.New Years Eve day we took Camrie sledding for her first time. I think that she really liked it and she liked even more when we got to the bottom and she could grab some snow to eat for the ride up the hill.
For New Years Eve we spent the night at our own place. We put Camrie to bed around 9 and then we watched movies and ate some junk food. I didn't even make it till midnight. I fell asleep on the couch during the second movie.All in all it was an eventful holiday season.

Santa

We had our ward party on Friday the 12th. It was lots of fun! We had the primary kids act out the nativity. We had amazing good food while a very talented girl sang. We had square dancing (the theme was Cowboy Christmas) Then Santa came!!! We waited till the very end to take Camrie so she wasn't rushed. The pictures explain the rest.

I need help!!!

I have been wanting to print a family picture and I can't decide what one to print. Here are some of mine and Cam's favorite. Let us know what one you like. Unfortunately Camrie did not want to look at the camera so this is what we got. The first one I was able to edit her head from another picture so she is looking and smiling.

He is HOME

Spencer is home and we are so excited!! It is so nice to have him home. He is speaking on Sunday so if you want to know the details of when and where let me know. You can leave a comment or send me an email. amie.jacobson@gmail.com

Apples

Today I gave Camrie some apples and for some reason she would take one bit and then set it down and get another one and do the same until they were almost all gone.

Welcome Home Elder Love

We are picking up Spencer today so we decorated the house with 24 yellow balloons and some yellow ribbon.

What a day!!!

Today Camrie entertained herself by climbing in and out of our storage ottoman that we keep some of her toys in.Then I was giving her a snack and she is into feeding herself. She is really good about just holding the spoon while I feed her so today I let her try it on her own. She was doing so good that I decided that I could make dinner while she had her snack. I turned around and found this.She thought that is was a lot easier to just use her hands. She also thought is was hilarious once I notice what she was doing. She started laughing like crazy.

Side note:
We are so excited my brother Spencer is getting home tomorrow. He has been in the West Indies and Porto Rico for the last two years. This will be the first time that he will meet Camrie, I got pregnant the month after he left.

October

Camrie and Me on Halloween. I'm a zoo keeper and she is a Monkey!!

Camrie in her Halloween outfit.


We carved pumpkins with my family. Cameron did another one of Camrie and I did a haunted house with ghosts coming out. Jon and Alison did a poison skull.

There is a sweet old man that crosses kids just down the street from me. He loves to talk to Camrie when we are done. The past month he keeps giving her "all day" suckers or "dum dum" suckers. At first I just put them in my bag and didn't give them to her because we don't give her candy. Then he started asking me if she had it or if she liked it. So i decided to give her one so I could tell him thanks and if she liked it or not. This is what she did:

update

So much has been going on the past few months. We took Camrie to the fair back in Sep. She seemed to enjoy herself. She touched some of the animals. We had a very friendly sheep that climbed on the gate to get closer to Camrie. I think that i was more nervous then she was. It was licking her and giving her kisses pretty much. We just have video of that so no pictures but here is a different picture.
We also went to the Logan Marathon back in Sep to watch Camrie's Aunt Alison run. She did great and we happen to see Cameron's Uncle Gary and cousin Stephanie running. This was Alison's first marathon and she came in just a few seconds after her goal time. It was fun cheering everyone on as they came by. We watched Alison run by in 3 different places. In the first place we were right next to a group of people playing drums so it was loud and helped people make it up the hill.
After the Marathon we went to My Grandma's grave that is in Logan. It was the first time we have been back there since the funereal. Camrie Really liked walking around the head stone holding on the the edge. Her shoe fell off in the process so that is why only one is on.
We went to see my Grandpa and Aunt and Uncle after the grave. Jon and Alison meet us then and for lunch we headed to Juniper Take Out.

Our little Camrie is such a ham. We took some pictures of her and she thought that she was so big standing on her own.

Stats

Camrie went to her 12 month visit (she was 12 and a 1/2 months) and she was 18 lbs 11 oz. She was 27 1/4 in long. So her weight is like 10% and her length is just below 5%

She is getting so big!!!! She really is filling out and looking chubby. Here is pictures of her resting with Duke and Max at my parents house.
