January Happenings

New Year's Eve: This was 2 days after having Cambree so we were tired!! But we had a little celebration and it was even more fun because my parents were here. We had glowsticks and karaoke. Doesn't get much better than that! My dad found a countdown and we pretended it was midnight when it was really only 8:00 or something. Then we all crashed. Party animals!
My dad bought masks at the dollar store and Allie wore hers for a long time and was sweating in it...it dyed her face pink!!

My parents came and helped watch the girls, clean, cook, and hold Cambree for us. They were heaven sent and I cried the day they left...a lot!!

January was centered around our sweet little sister! She is such a joy and a great baby. We are all completely in love with her!
Dad has his hands full with THREE girls!
They love to help us pick out her clothes and watch her get dressed! They are both such good helpers when mom needs them to grab a burp cloth or diaper! I'm grateful and hope it continues!
Such a sleepy girl...unless mom lays down to take a nap and then this happens:
WIDE AWAKE!
Allie made her a little bracelet. 
Her newborn clothes are huge on her. She has Urkel pants here!
They always want to hold her and are getting very good at it!
Cambree met her Great Grandma Dunn on Sunday, January 26. It was very special.

We celebrated Civil Rights day with our tradition of Oreo (black + white) ice cream. Always a good time except we didn't have friends over this year!

Random things
My best friend Lyndsay sent me these goodies. She knows me well!
We received so many meals and gifts from friends. Here we are enjoying homemade bread and jam!
My OCD is screaming inside because I can't keep up with my house when there is a baby to snuggle all day!
Although I did find time to bake once this month...the most perfect chocolate chip cookies
And we still found time to have a date. We did take out and watched "Sherlock." This was the same day I found out I had retained placenta and went on antibiotics. Doing great now!
Allie made jewelry from her Christmas present from Aunt Amy.
Katelyn took a field trip to Fred Meyer and learned about produce, seafood, and the bakery.
Allie's greatest dream came true when mom bought her a MAXI SKIRT!!
And bathtime is still the best, especially when there are bubbles involved and bearded ladies.

I think that sums it up!
