This and That

Seems like we have been pretty busy lately here in the Kahler house.  Lots going on!!

Camdyn had her 1 year check up and is doing great.  She is 22 lbs, 5 oz (70%) and 29.5 inches (62%).  So she is smaller than Tatum was at 1 year, but she is growing perfectly!!  The doctor said she looks good and will be taking off walking soon.  She wants us to start working really hard on words with her as she should start saying words soon.  She talks all the time, just so far nothing much that we can understand.  She does says Momma and Dadda, but not necessarily to us.  The other day she did say Dadda while looking at Matt so that was pretty exciting.  We are going to start her on milk today.  We will see how she does.  I know she will do great, just have to get her used to the sippy cup and move away from bottles.  Camdyn also has become quite the climber.  She climbed all the way to the top of the stairs the other day.  I probably shouldn't of let her but I did.... I was right by her side as she climbed them, and she even came all the way down on her belly by herself.  Thank goodness we have gates up at the top and bottom of the stairs!!

Trying to be sneaky

We had an icky stomach bug go through our house this week, first Camdyn got it on Tuesday night then Tatum got it on Thursday night and then I got it on Friday night.  It was definitely not fun being sicky around here, but luckily the sickness seemed to get out of our systems quick!!

Since we had such a sicky week, we decided today to have a super fun family day!!  We went to the zoo this morning and all of the animals were out.  We started at the giraffes and climbed up to the lookout and both girls enjoyed that.  Then we headed over to see the tiger and he was growling the whole time we were over there!!  Then we stood in line to feed the giraffes.  It was definitely a fun thing to do, but I think it is a bit expensive.  It is $4 a person, so we decided that just Tatum and I would do it and Camdyn could do it when she is just a little bit older.  Tatum and I had fun feeding the giraffe and checking out his blue tongue.  After the zoo we decided to get some lunch and take it to the park for a picnic.  It was fun to sit in the grass and enjoy this beautiful day.  We tried to fly the kite Tatum got for Christmas from Uncle Adam and Aunt Lindsey, but unfortunately there was no wind and it didn't work so well.  It was pretty funny.  Since the kite didn't work we decided to just play at the park and we had a great time doing that.  The girls were loving the slide.

Camdyn's 1st Birthday!!

Camdyn Breeze woke up as happy as ever on her birthday.  She was smiling and laughing and I think she knew it was her special day.  When Tatum woke up she and I sang a special song to the birthday girl (over and over and over) and Camdyn shook her little tooshie and bobbed her head while we sang.  We had a great morning playing and having a dance party to some Disney Tunes.  It was a great way to spend the time before her party.

We had our family and best friends over for a special party for Camdyn.  The girls and I had been making decorations and crafts for the party for a few weeks and we were excited for the party to finally be here.  We really do have the very BEST family and friends and we are so lucky they came over to celebrate Camdyn's special day. 

Happy Birthday Camdyn Breeze!!

I am 1!!!!

We had lunch and the girls played outside.  Of course the birthday girl needed a little nap, so she slept on her Daddy for about an hour and then we got into present time.  Camdyn sat in her chair and looked like a princess.  Of course big sister Tatum "helped" Camdyn with her gifts.  Actually Tatum opened everything and Camdyn was ok with that.  Camdyn didn't really seem to mind not opening the gifts, she did LOVE to see what was inside of them though.  The girls were adorable and it was fun.  After all the presents were opened the girls played in the super fun ball pit that Camdyn got from her Uncle Andrew and Aunt Emma.  They had a lot of fun in that and Camdyn was belly laughing at her hilarious sister when they were playing!!

Loving her birthday!!

Then it was time for cake.  At first Camdyn was a bit shy, but that did not last long.  She dug right in.  I have never seen a baby love cake as much as Camdyn did.  It was EVERYWHERE.  She was so messy and it was awesome.  I tried to take the cake away from her and she freaked out, she was definitely telling me that she was not ready to be done with the cake!!

What is this Mom?!

Mmmm yummy cake!!

Digging in!!

Not happy - "Give me that cake back!!"

"What, no more?!?"

I LOVE CAKE!!
