It's Been a Long Time

Camo with friends







15 months old

I have been such a bad blogger lately. I think a lot has to do with the fact that I have been extremely busy at work. It's no excuse. I will just catch you up to speed with what we have been doing lately.

I will first talk about the most important person in our family, little Camo. I guess he is not little anymore. He just turned 15 months old!! I don't take nearly as many pictures of him now than when he was a baby which is crazy because he gets cuter and cuter as he gets older. Camo is walking everywhere now. He loves to go outside and will go pull on the door handle to go out. His vocabulary is growing so much every day. He can now say socks, shoes, banana, bye bye, apple, baby, Jesus, basketball, snack, cheese, cheerios, blankie, balloon, milk, water and many other words that I just can't think of right now. He points to his nose, eyes, mouth, belly. He makes lots of animal noises like snake, bear, dog, sheep, cat. If you ask him if he went poop he will make a grunting noise. Camo's favorite food right now is bananas just like his dad He also loves drinking water just like his mom. I have never even given him juice because he just loves water so much.

Now I'll update you on J. He is keeping busy with school. I can't believe he is getting so close to graduating. He will be finished with school in December. He keeps telling me how scary it is because he has been going to school his whole life and now he has to look for a job. We still don't know where we are going to end up, but we will be doing a lot of fasting, praying, and going to the temple in the next 8 months to get some direction. J also just started another season of softball tonight. It's good to see him get out and do something he loves.

Hopefully you don't get bored listening to what I have been up to lately. Work is keeping me really busy. I am still a personal trainer at Bally's. I have been so blessed to be able to bring Camo to the kids club with me while I work. The girls that work in there are so amazing and they take such good care of Camo. I love my job and love to see the transformations that my clients go through. I have also been training for a half marathon coming up on July 4th. I am actually motivated to get a good time. My goal would be to complete the half in under 8 minute miles. Another exciting thing happening in my family is my little sister is getting married in June!! She is the last of all of my six siblings to get married. I am so proud of her and who she has become. She just graduated from BYU in Public Health. She is going to look so beautiful in her wedding dress. Love you Shalis!!

Lynz- One of our neighbors asked us if we wanted it. I think it's super cute. Camo likes to swing on it.
